Cafe for Sale with Space to Become a Local Favorite!
Business Description
Own an established café with over 20 years of history and a loyal customer base in Lincolnton, North Carolina. This second generation Cafe for Sale offers a rare opportunity to take over a well known local business with an established presence, existing customer loyalty, and a fully equipped space ready for continued operation or a new vision. Presented by We Sell Restaurants, the approximately 1,200 square foot location also features an expansive patio that provides an inviting space for customers to gather and enjoy the concept.
After over 20 years in the community, this café has built a loyal customer base and established itself as a familiar destination for locals. That history provides a new owner with a strong foundation that would be difficult to replicate from the ground up. Whether you continue the existing café and dessert concept or introduce your own concept, you have the advantage of an established location, existing infrastructure, and a customer base already familiar with the space.
The café is fully equipped for food and beverage service, with double stack electric ovens, an electric cooktop, three compartment sink, stainless prep tables, and extensive refrigeration. Beverage equipment includes a two group espresso machine, espresso grinder, tea brewer, commercial blenders, and high speed drink mixers. Additional assets include a countertop convection oven, popcorn machine, topping warmers, POS system, display cases, shelving, coolers, freezers, and patio furniture.
The existing setup provides flexibility for a variety of concepts. Continue operating as a café and dessert destination, or reimagine the space as a coffee shop, bakery, smoothie bar, acai bowl concept, sandwich café, frozen treat destination, or other quick service concept. The combination of existing equipment, indoor seating, and a large outdoor patio allows an incoming owner to customize the operation while benefiting from the infrastructure already in place.
The expansive patio is a standout feature, creating an inviting space for customers to gather, enjoy meals and desserts, and spend time with friends and family. Strong visibility, ample parking, and existing signage further enhance the location and make it easy for customers to find and access the business.
The lease offers additional stability, with rent of just $1,935 per month and a lease term extending through March 2031. The combination of an established business, loyal customer base, affordable occupancy, and a fully equipped restaurant space makes this an attractive opportunity for an owner operator or entrepreneur looking to enter the Lincolnton market.
Lincolnton offers a community oriented environment with convenient access to larger markets including Charlotte, Hickory, and Gastonia. For a new owner, this opportunity provides the ability to build upon nearly 25 years of local history while bringing fresh ideas and additional growth opportunities to an established customer base.
Lending may be available for qualified buyers.
