Here is a great opportunity to take over a professionally built hospitality space in one of Calgary’s most established inner city neighbourhoods. The space was designed as a quick service food and beverage operation and would work well for a café, sandwich shop, pizza concept or almost any other fast casual restaurant. There is also a separate licensed room that could be used for evening service, private dining, tasting events, small functions or another complementary concept. Two outdoor patios provide additional seasonal seating and help create even more ways to use the space. More than $550,000 was originally invested in the buildout, and the assets are now being offered for $265,000. For a buyer looking to open a hospitality business, this is an opportunity to acquire a high quality, ready to operate space for a fraction of what it would cost to build something similar today. The sale includes the leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment. Additional equipment may also be available, giving a purchaser the flexibility to adapt the space to suit their own menu and concept. The kitchen has been designed for efficient service, with existing takeout and delivery infrastructure already in place. The professionally finished interior gives a new operator the ability to open much sooner, while still allowing them to introduce their own branding, décor and personality. Property Highlights • Prime location in one of Calgary’s best known hospitality districts • Professionally designed quick service restaurant • Efficient commercial kitchen • Separate licensed room for evening service, private events or additional dining • Two outdoor patios • Licensed food and beverage operation • Takeout and delivery systems already in place • High quality leasehold improvements • Furniture, fixtures and equipment included • Additional equipment may be available • Attractive lease, subject to landlord approval Building a comparable restaurant today would require a much larger investment, along with the time and uncertainty involved with design, construction, permits and tenant improvements. This opportunity allows a buyer to spend less time building and more time opening, marketing and growing their concept. The current ownership has decided to realign its hospitality operations and make the space and assets available to a new operator. The existing brands are not included in the sale, allowing the purchaser to bring their own vision to the location. The business identity, operating information, lease details and additional information will be provided to qualified purchasers.

A Unique, Well Established Specialty Café & Coffee House For Sale in Calgary

Here is an opportunity to acquire a well established, independently operated café and coffee house with a loyal following and a reputation that has been built around great food, welcoming service and a truly unique atmosphere.

The business offers a predominantly plant based menu with a strong emphasis on fresh, thoughtfully prepared food, including soups, sandwiches, bowls, specialty drinks, smoothies, coffee and desserts. The menu also appeals to customers looking for gluten free and other dietary friendly options, helping the business reach a much broader customer base than a traditional café.

What really sets this business apart is the experience it has created. Customers consistently comment on the relaxed, comfortable atmosphere, friendly service, creative décor and the feeling that this is somewhere you can come in, slow down and stay awhile. It has developed into much more than simply a place to grab something to eat, becoming a gathering place for regular customers, community groups and special events.

The business has built an excellent online reputation with hundreds of customer reviews and has also received recognition from Calgary media and local food publications. That exposure, combined with repeat clientele and word of mouth, provides a new owner with an established foundation that would take years to recreate from scratch.

The space has personality without being overly formal and lends itself well to the existing operation while also providing opportunities for a purchaser to introduce their own ideas, expand the menu, increase operating hours, add additional events, catering or programming, and continue building on the community that has already been established.

This would be an excellent opportunity for an owner operator who wants something different from the typical franchise or restaurant offering. There is an established business, recognizable presence, existing customer base and a concept that has proven it can create loyal customers.

A unique Calgary hospitality business with plenty of personality and room for the next owner to put their own stamp on it.
