Lower Price for Quick Sale!
This established downtown bagel café offers a proven breakfast-and-lunch concept with strong local recognition, a loyal repeat customer base, and a fully equipped commercial kitchen. The business has been operating under current ownership since 2021 and generated approximately $665K in revenue in the latest annualized period, with limited owner involvement and a trained management team in place.
The opportunity is best suited for an owner-operator or experienced food service buyer who wants a manageable, day-time operation with room to grow. The current schedule is 7 AM to 2 PM, seven days a week, leaving clear upside for expanded hours, catering, wholesale, or additional marketing.
Some buyers may want clarity on the recent revenue adjustments, the transition of day-to-day management, and the seller-prepared financials. Those items should be framed transparently as due-diligence points, while emphasizing that the business still benefits from a prime downtown location, established systems, and a long-standing customer base.
