About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 9
- Employees
- 14 (12 Full-time, 2 Part-time)
2 managers - Facilities & Assets
- This business had an interesting beginning as two 'foodies' quit corporate America to begin their own place by buying a struggling business located in a historic district. Their love for food and community quickly became one featuring local musicians in an intimate setting. As their food offerings gained immense popularity, they expanded to provide full service catering and special dinners on Saturday and Sunday nights.
There are two buildings for sale: one 2-story that houses the coffeeshop and a tenant on the first floor with additional space on second floor that can be converted into apartments or an air bnb.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- There is no other restaurant in the area with as much selection and variety, as well as a recording studio and an intimate space for musicians to perform.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Catering is growing, and is now the monthly, private, fine dining venue for the local wine club as well weddings and other special occasions. The drive through and catering hub located behind the restaurant is an excellent opportunity to benefit from advertising and marketing efforts. With the use of billboards, radio, and lifestyle magazines, an increased stream of revenue can be accomplished. The many award-winning golf courses nearby present a sizeable potential for additional catering. This is an opportunity easily scalable.
