Turnkey food hall & bar with liquor license & a national franchise
Business Description
Fully-built out 3 kitchens, multiple coolers & freezers, pizza ovens
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey food hall and bar concept operating out of a fully gutted and professionally rebuilt restaurant space. The location was completely reimagined from its prior use and converted into a modern, multi-concept food hall designed to support multiple cuisines, revenue streams, and service styles under one roof.
The front of house is thoughtfully designed for both efficiency and guest experience, featuring multiple customer-facing service counters, a full bar with seating, window bar seating, and ample table seating throughout the space. The business is legally permitted for 99 seats, allowing for strong dine-in capacity. A transferable Prince George’s County liquor license is included (subject to approval), representing a significant asset and regulatory advantage.
The back-of-house infrastructure is extensive and highly versatile. The space includes a full commercial kitchen with three grill tops, a tandoor suitable for Indian cuisine or adaptable for hibachi-style cooking, and two state-of-the-art pizza ovens, which are currently underutilized and offer immediate expansion potential. There are also two walk-in units (freezer and cooler), an owner’s office / cash cage, a private hallway with two bathrooms, and substantial dry storage. Rear access supports deliveries and service needs, including grease traps, oxygen, and utilities, enabling smooth daily operations.
The current setup supports multiple operating concepts, including a South Indian restaurant, a smoothie/bubble tea operation, a nationally recognized cheesesteak franchise, and a full bar. There are no direct competitors within three miles for the Indian or cheesesteak concepts, no known smoothie or bubble tea competitors in the immediate area, and this is the only bar within the shopping center, providing a strong competitive position.
There is significant upside for growth and expansion. The unused pizza ovens allow for the addition of a pizza concept or ghost kitchen with minimal investment. The multi-kitchen layout enables an owner to introduce new cuisines, expand operating hours, add delivery-focused brands, or simplify operations by consolidating concepts. The full bar presents further opportunity to increase evening and weekend revenue through events, promotions, or extended hours.
The current owner is willing to provide up to one month of paid consulting to assist with training and transition. Existing staff may remain in place, subject to buyer preference, allowing for operational continuity.
This opportunity is ideal for a food hall operator, multi-unit restaurateur, franchise operator, or hospitality group seeking a flexible, fully built-out space with liquor capabilities, strong infrastructure, and clear paths for growth without the cost and risk of a ground-up build.
