Turnkey Café & Coffee Shop | Absentee Operated | Jacksonville
Business Description
This is an opportunity to acquire a well-established, absentee-operated café and coffee shop located in the heart of Jacksonville Beach. The business generates approximately $800,000 in annual revenue and offers a fully equipped kitchen, experienced staff, established operating systems, and a customer base.
The menu features breakfast, lunch, dinner, specialty coffee, espresso beverages, pastries, sandwiches, salads, desserts, and catering. A private event room provides additional revenue opportunities through corporate meetings, networking events, birthday parties, private celebrations, and community gatherings.
The business is being offered as an asset sale. While the current trade name is not included, the purchaser will receive the leasehold interest (subject to landlord approval), furniture, fixtures, equipment, recipes, operating procedures, vendor relationships, and the assets necessary to continue operations immediately following closing. This creates an excellent opportunity to establish your own brand without the significant cost and time associated with building out a new restaurant.
The current owner operates the business absentee, making this an attractive opportunity for both investors and owner-operators. A new owner who becomes actively involved in the business may be able to further improve profitability by reducing management payroll.
Growth opportunities include expanding catering, increasing utilization of the private event room, extending operating hours, enhancing marketing efforts, implementing customer loyalty programs, and obtaining a new beer and wine license to increase evening traffic and average ticket size.
The approximately 2,500-square-foot facility includes indoor dining, outdoor seating, a private event room, customer ordering area, espresso bar, and a fully equipped commercial kitchen. The current lease is approximately $5,493 per month (NNN) with the current term extending through July 2027, plus renewal options.
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a profitable, turnkey restaurant in one of Northeast Florida's most desirable coastal markets while creating your own concept and brand.

- Facilities & Assets
- The business operates from an approximately 2,500-square-foot leased facility in a prime Jacksonville Beach location. The space features indoor and outdoor seating, a private event room, an espresso bar, customer ordering area, and a fully equipped commercial kitchen. Included in the sale are substantially all furniture, fixtures, and equipment necessary to continue operations, including a commercial hood system, range, flat-top griddle, oven, fryers, refrigerators, freezers, sandwich prep station, espresso machine, grinder, POS system, dining furniture, and smallwares. The current lease is approximately $5,493 per month (NNN), expires in July 2027, and includes renewal options, subject to landlord approval. The business is being sold as an asset sale; the current trade name is not included, providing the buyer the opportunity to establish their own brand.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The business benefits from its prime Jacksonville Beach location, serving a diverse customer base of local residents, professionals, beachgoers, and tourists throughout the year. The surrounding area features a strong mix of residential neighborhoods, offices, retail, and hospitality businesses that generate consistent traffic. The restaurant is well positioned within the local dining market with multiple revenue streams, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, specialty coffee, catering, and private events. A new owner also has the opportunity to differentiate the business through rebranding, expanded marketing, menu enhancements, and the addition of beer and wine service, creating further opportunities to grow market share and increase customer traffic.
- Opportunities for Growth
- A new owner has several opportunities to grow revenue and profitability. Operating the business as an owner-operator may reduce management payroll and increase cash flow. The private event room is currently underutilized and offers significant potential for corporate meetings, networking events, birthday parties, showers, and other private functions. Additional growth opportunities include expanding catering to local businesses and organizations, increasing social media and digital marketing, implementing a customer loyalty program, extending operating hours, and obtaining a new beer and wine license to enhance evening dining and increase average ticket value. The business is also well suited for a buyer looking to introduce their own restaurant concept under a new brand.
