Eleven years in business, 1,100 square feet, a full commercial kitchen — and the doors close at 3:00 PM.
That last part is the whole story. This café grosses roughly $700,000 a year and cash flows to a working owner as-is, on a schedule that ends before most restaurants have started dinner service. Everything you build after 3:00 is upside on top of a business that already pays for itself.
The setup is a quick-casual breakfast and lunch operation in a dense Downtown Manhattan corridor — office buildings on all sides, civic foot traffic, established weekday volume, and a delivery channel already running. Roughly 1,100 SF with a real kitchen, not a reheat station. Long-term lease security in place.
Where the room is:
Extended hours. Dinner, or even a 3–7 window, on infrastructure you're already paying rent on.
Ghost kitchen. The kitchen sits cold every night. Partner a delivery-only concept into the off-hours and the rent line does double duty.
Catering and events. Underdeveloped in a neighborhood that supports it.
Menu and brand. A chef-driven operator can refresh the concept without touching the buildout.
This is a fit for a chef or seasoned operator who wants a business that already works and wants to make it work harder — not a rescue project. Seller is open to financing a meaningful portion of the price and will consider all reasonable offers.
