Profitable Boba Café & Restaurant-Ready Space | South Placer
Business Description
Profitable Boba Café & Second-Gen Restaurant-Ready Space | South Placer County | Absentee-Run | Step In or Start Fresh
The Opportunity
This is more than a boba café — it's a built-out, second-generation commercial space in one of South Placer County's family friendly communities, offered at a price point that makes it one of the most cost-effective ways to get into your own concept today.
Anchored by national tenants and positioned on a high-traffic highway, the location checks every box: prime end-cap positioning, exceptional drive-by visibility, natural light, a large gated outdoor patio, and extended exterior seating. Buildouts like this routinely cost $150,000+ and six to twelve months to complete. Here, that work is already done.
The current concept — a profitable, absentee-run boba tea and dessert café — is available for a buyer who wants to continue operating it. But this listing is equally compelling for an new or existing restaurant operator ready to bring their own vision to a move-in ready space.

Two Clear Paths for the Right Buyer
Path 1 — Continue the Current Concept
Step into a profitable, operating business with existing revenue, reviews, and a loyal customer base. The Seller is open to a licensing arrangement for the name, if desired, allowing a seamless transition with the brand goodwill already in place. Terms name to be negotiated separately.
Path 2 — Bring Your Own Concept
Use this second-gen space as the foundation for something new. The buildout, systems, and location do the heavy lifting. Concepts that work well here include:
Juice bar or smoothie concept
Boba or specialty beverage expansion with addl. lines
Deli or grab-and-go
Poke or Asian fusion light fare
Dessert or snack café
Any beverage-forward or light food concept
No hood system is currently in place, keeping the space ideal for beverage, cold prep, and light snack operations. A hood could be added for operators who want to expand into hot food — making this space adaptable to a wider range of concepts down the road.
