Business Description
This offering presents a rare opportunity to acquire a modern, upscale, turnkey café known for its wonderful breakfast and lunch menu, premium build-out, efficient operations, and strong history of revenue performance. The café features a clean, contemporary design with high-quality finishes, professional menu boards and signage, commercial refrigeration, smoothie and açaí production equipment, espresso/coffee equipment, POS terminals, and a workflow layout engineered for speed and consistency. Replicating this build-out would cost well in excess of the asking price and require significant time, planning, and capital.

The business operates Tuesday through Saturday as a five-day breakfast and lunch café, serving a loyal customer base and maintaining steady traffic throughout the year. Historical revenue has demonstrated consistent growth, supported by both local residents and seasonal visitors who appreciate the café’s quality, service, and menu offerings. Strong sales per operating hour reflect the popularity of the concept and the efficiency of its operating model.

Operationally, the café is designed for simplicity and efficiency. Established systems, clear processes, and a well-trained team allow for smooth daily operation without requiring the owner to be onsite. All proprietary menus, recipes, procedures, and operational manuals will transfer to the buyer, providing a complete framework for success. The full staff—including key leadership—is expected to remain onboard, offering continuity and stability during the transition.

Significant growth opportunities are available to a new owner. Because the café operates only Tuesday through Saturday and with limited daily hours, substantial upside exists simply by expanding the schedule. Extending existing hours or adding additional days of operation would immediately increase revenue availability, supported by historically strong customer demand patterns. Further expansion can be achieved through increased local visibility, selective catering, or modest menu innovation—none of which require altering the café’s proven model or brand identity.

The café enjoys a favorable competitive position, with limited direct competition in its immediate trade area for premium smoothies, açaí bowls, and modern, health-forward café offerings. Combined with its strong breakfast and lunch menu, high product quality, and efficient operations, the business consistently stands out among more traditional quick-service options. High sales per operating hour reinforce the strength of the concept and its ability to perform well under various operating schedules.

This café is an excellent fit for an owner-operator, partnership, or multi-unit group seeking a well-established concept with streamlined systems and a dependable customer base. The business is easy to assume, even for buyers without prior café experience, due to its efficient workflow, documented processes, and stable team. The model is proven, scalable, and supported by strong demand within the community.

This sale is part of the owner’s planned phased retirement and the desire to streamline responsibilities across multiple cafés operated in Maryland and Delaware. The business is fully turnkey, well-maintained, and positioned for continued success under new ownership.

Additional operational details, financial documentation, and equipment specifics will be provided to qualified buyers upon execution of a confidentiality agreement.
