Well my trip to Edmonton was very positive for a number of different reasons, but one of which is VERY interesting.
I stopped into West Edmonton Mall after a meeting to grab a bite. As I walked down Bourbon Street, feeling like I was back in Vegas, I decided to park myself at a table in Hudson's. Now this is not my first time at Hudson's, but it was at this location, and it's beautiful! Lot's of TV's, a warm inviting atmosphere and very friendly service proved that I made the right choice. I looked...

Well.. needless to say it was another rockin evening in Calgary's Pumphill district, as the 11th Annual Red Meat Party surged into the night. Countless friends, colleagues and client's of Kahane Law enjoyed the Studio 54 themed festivities with bell bottom jeans, Afro's of every color and description and the best collection of platform shoes I have seen since watching re-runs of Starsky and Hutch.
The food was once again indescribable, as every type of red meat you can think of was BBQ'd, smoked and...

Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Airdrie. Are you looking to acquire a well established, locally recognized quick service Mediterranean restaurant specializing in Donair’s, Shawarma, Rice Bowls, Poutine, Fries, Salads, Falafel, kids’ meals, and dessert items. The business benefits from a strong reputation, loyal repeat customers, and a proven menu that is well suited for dine in, takeout, and delivery platforms.
This shop has earned its customers loyalty over the last 22 years with public reviews consistently highlighting fresh food, generous portions, friendly service, and a “you’re family here” style of customer service. Customer feedback consistently talks about “made from scratch” style food, homemade sauces, quality meat, fast service, and a warm owner/operator presence. Reviewers also describe the restaurant as a “must try,” a favourite repeat stop, and one of the “best Donair options in town”.
The business also has an established online and social media presence, including a Facebook page with approximately 898 likes and a 100% recommendation score from 54 reviews, providing a new owner with a valuable base of brand awareness and customer engagement. The Instagram profile further supports the business’s public facing identity and food focused marketing, giving a buyer a foundation to continue building local visibility through social media.
In addition to walk in and repeat local traffic, the restaurant is active on third party delivery/takeout platforms, with menu categories that lend themselves well to online ordering. This gives a new operator multiple revenue streams and the ability to grow through improved digital marketing, catering, delivery optimization, local promotions, and expanded community engagement.
For an owner/operator or family looking to run a business, this is a strong opportunity to step into a recognizable food service business with an established customer base, proven menu appeal, and clear upside for a motivated operator. The concept is approachable, the product has broad appeal, and the existing customer goodwill provides a solid platform for continued success.
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in 4515 52 AVENUE in Red Deer. Located in a high-visibility, high-traffic area of Red Deer, this established car wash offers exceptional accessibility from major arterial roads and benefits from steady traffic drawn from nearby residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and industrial parks. The property features ten barn-style bays, one automatic bay, and three large truck bays within a 12,363 sq. ft. building, with additional space reserved for a future automatic bay. Situated on 1.08 acres in the downtown commercial district, the site is surrounded by retail and office developments, as well as significant multi-family and hospital upgrade projects, ensuring strong long-term growth potential. Revenue ( 2023: $907,200, 2024: $923,896, 2025: $974,302) 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary. Excellent opportunity to acquire a well located restaurant and bar space on Calgary’s highly desirable 17th Avenue SW. This location offers strong exposure, steady traffic, a good patio, and the flexibility for a new owner to continue with the existing style of business or bring in an entirely new food and beverage concept.
The space is already set up as a full service restaurant and bar, but the real value is in the location, the lease, the patio, and the ease of conversion. The kitchen has been recently renovated, which gives a new operator a major head start and helps avoid the cost and downtime of a major back of house buildout. The front of house area can be refreshed or redesigned without a complicated renovation, making it a good fit for many different concepts, including casual dining, lounge, pub, cocktail bar, specialty cuisine, quick service, or a new branded restaurant.
The rent is very attractive for 17th Avenue SW and should be viewed as one of the strongest selling features of this opportunity. For an operator looking to control occupancy costs while securing a presence in one of Calgary’s best known restaurant and entertainment areas, this is a very compelling option.
This is a great opportunity for an owner operator, experienced restaurant group, or growing food and beverage brand looking for a flexible space in a strong inner city location. With a renovated kitchen, good lease economics, a patio, and the ability to rebrand or convert the decor with relative ease, this location provides a solid foundation for a new operator to step in and make it their own. |
