Suggested Blog Articles Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in Calgary. 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. 
Here is a new listing that I am happy to post in 320 Railway AVENUE in Granum.
Turnkey Restaurant Opportunity – Granum, Alberta
Step into a magical space - a space that’s ready for a chef who’s looking to make their mark.
This completely redecorated and updated building has incredible touches of both hominess and whimsy. With funky nooks for dining and visiting – exposed brick walls, timber beams and hardwood floors, tin ceilings, and leather benches – it’s designed for the comfort and entertainment of visitors.
There’s even an elevated level for private gatherings that features unique décor and exceptional bench seating. From equipment to dishes, everything you need to open your own restaurant is already here and comes with the building.
To make things even more affordable and convenient – there is a back area currently used as a baking kitchen filled with sunshine … perfect for ice cream sales in the summer. With a bathroom and washer/dryer, this space could be easily doored off as a private suite.
Downstairs has a ton of room for storage and houses the newer furnace and hot water heater.
While the artwork and the clocks are part of the owner’s private collection, everything is negotiable.
Making things even more appealing is an adorable, attached 600 plus square foot two-bedroom, one bath, fully-renovated and furnished suite. It comes with washer dryer, dishwasher, tv, sofa and chair, fridge, stove and microwave. This space is currently rented and generating income.
The original building has been completely re-done. All windows and doors have been replaced, the roof has been insulted to R-40 standards and the roof covering has been replaced.
This is truly a unique, turnkey opportunity to walk in and start cooking. It’s a location that’s waiting for a creative chef, someone with a vision and the ability to market this special place and find out what it could really be. A destination dining experience… in a rural setting, in the hamlet of Granum, Alberta.
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. |
