Ohio Banquet Venue, 110 Years, Four Revenue Streams
$492,164 Annual Revenue Across Fine Dining, Bar Service, Private Events, and Large-Scale Banquets from a Single Leased Facility

Business Description
Corporate planners, families booking milestone celebrations, and individual diners each generate revenue through separate billing channels at this Ohio hospitality property. Fine dining, bar service, private event bookings, and large-scale banquets operate simultaneously under one roof. The income mix across four categories means a soft month in any single channel does not determine the financial outcome for that period.

Advance event bookings provide forward revenue visibility that walk-in dining alone cannot produce. Repeat banquet clients return on annual cycles for recurring celebrations and corporate functions. That booking pattern creates a predictable revenue base layered beneath the variable income from daily dining and bar service. The combined result is $492,164 in annual revenue with $133,368 in SDE at a 27.1% margin.

Fifteen employees cover front-of-house, kitchen, and event coordination across all four service formats. The team carries operational familiarity with high-volume event execution alongside standard dinner service. $200,000 in FF&E transfers at closing, covering commercial kitchen equipment, dining room furnishings, and the event infrastructure currently in active use. Inventory of $3,000 is included.

The facility occupies leased space in a high-traffic Ohio corridor near major regional attractions. A buyer acquires active staff, supplier relationships, event client accounts, and four revenue channels generating consistent near-$500,000 annual output.

Business History
Food service at this Ohio location dates to 1914. The original dining operation added banquet hosting, private event services, and bar operations across the following decades, each expansion built onto the existing physical footprint without requiring a separate facility or additional real estate. That incremental model produced the four-channel revenue structure currently in place.

The venue held its market position through the post-pandemic contraction that removed several competing Ohio food service operators between 2020 and 2024. Current revenue of $492,164 reflects stable demand across all four service categories entering 2026. The business is offered for sale due to owner retirement after a long operating tenure.

Potential Growth and Expansion
Private event bookings currently reach clients through existing community relationships. A direct outreach program targeting corporate accounts, wedding planners, and nonprofit organizations opens a new booking channel without additional staff or facility costs.
