Imagine walking into your own restaurant every morning, greeting loyal customers who've become like family. That's what awaits you at Blackbird Bistro in charming Craftsbury, Vermont.

This isn't just another restaurant listing - it's your chance to step into a beloved community gathering place that's been thoughtfully built for success. You'll find a fully operational 50-seat restaurant that doubles its capacity when Vermont's beautiful seasons invite outdoor dining.

Picture yourself behind the stunning 12-seat bar, or watching guests enjoy intimate meals in the cozy dining room and bright sunroom. When warmer weather arrives, you'll love the versatility of multiple outdoor spaces - from the classic Vermont sunporch to the heated screened porch with fire pit, plus that perfect level area for special events and celebrations.

The heart of any restaurant is its kitchen, and you'll be thrilled with what you're getting. The commercial kitchen was completely rebuilt in 2019 with brand-new everything - 10-foot hood system, professional refrigeration, commercial dishwasher, and plenty of storage including cold storage. It's designed to handle whatever culinary vision you bring.

Here's what makes this opportunity special: Craftsbury is one of Vermont's fastest-growing small towns, drawing year-round visitors for recreation and tourism. You're not just buying a restaurant - you're investing in a four-season destination with built-in demand.

Worried about starting from scratch? Don't be. This place comes with an established customer base and strong reputation. The community already loves what's here, giving you the perfect foundation to build upon.

You have two paths forward. Take over the space and create your own brand for the listed price, or keep everything - the Blackbird Bistro name, LLC, licensing, website, and online store - for $109,000.

This is more than a business opportunity. It's a chance to become part of a community, to create memorable experiences, and to build something meaningful. Whether you're an experienced restaurateur or someone ready to turn their hospitality dreams into reality, Blackbird Bistro offers the perfect blend of established success and fresh potential.
