Established Bar & Venue Concept Since 2012
The Sidetrack presents a rare opportunity to acquire an established bar business with a strong local following in Gooding, Idaho.
The business includes the operating entity, furniture, fixtures, equipment, approximately $2,500 in inventory, and a transferable liquor license held in good standing.
Currently operating as a successful neighborhood bar, The Sidetrack generates repeat business through entertainment, private events, seasonal celebrations, and a welcoming community atmosphere.
Rather than operating a traditional restaurant, the business partners with local food trucks to provide dining options for patrons while maintaining permits to serve food. This approach creates additional flexibility while minimizing kitchen staffing and operating costs.
Future ownership has several avenues for growth, including expanding food service, increasing event programming, alcohol catering, and utilizing more of the building's available square footage. The current owner is willing to provide up to one month of on-site training to help ensure a smooth transition.
