Iconic Cape Cod Breakfast Bakery for Sale
Business Description
An extraordinary opportunity to acquire one of Cape Cod’s most beloved and enduring breakfast bakeries.
No baking experience necessary. If you are adaptable, disciplined, and motivated... we will teach you!
Celebrating 50 years in business, this iconic Dennis Port bakery is more than a restaurant—it is a Cape Cod tradition. Guests travel from all over the Cape, across the country, and from around the world to visit. Many have been coming for generations, returning year after year as part of their family vacation ritual. This is a place where memories are made, not just meals.
What truly sets this business apart is the relationship with its customers. There is a deep level of trust, loyalty, and goodwill that goes beyond a typical restaurant experience. Families trust us with their limited and precious vacation time. The connection is authentic, personal, and rare in today’s hospitality landscape.
The bakery has also earned its reputation through five decades of consistently great food. We are among the highest-rated restaurants on Cape Cod, known for quality, freshness, and reliability. Demand is strong, lines are common, and the business operates with efficiency and goodwill even during peak season.
Structure of the Opportunity
The buyer will purchase the rights to operate the Dennis Port location, similar to a “franchise-light” model:
The current owner will retain the trademark and the rights to sell coffee, recipes, and branded products to other locations.
The new owner will maintain a core menu of key items to preserve the brand legacy.
Creative freedom is encouraged beyond that core—this is not a rigid franchise.
Full operational control of the location is transferred to the new owner.
We are seeking the right steward, not just a buyer.
Lifestyle & Real Estate Upside
Above the bakery is a four-bedroom apartment, where the current owner raised a family for 15 years. This creates an exceptional lifestyle opportunity:
Spend the summer living and working on Cape Cod
Operate a highly profitable seasonal business
Shut down in the off-season and travel, or pursue other ventures
The property itself is also available for sale to the right buyer, though it is not required. Additionally, there is an opportunity to discuss the purchase of the shipping operation and coffee-roasting business as part of a broader deal.
Operations & Staffing
The business is extremely popular and well-known locally.
We receive 70–80 job applicants every year and have never struggled to staff the operation.
The systems are designed so that teenagers and college students can perform most tasks—ideal for summer staffing.
Limited days and hours of operation are intentional, allowing for maximum profitability while maintaining customer satisfaction.
Transition & Timing
The current owner will remain involved through Summer 2025 to ensure a smooth transition.
Purchase timing is flexible: by April 1, 2025 or at the end of the summer, to be discussed.
Some owner financing may be available for the right buyer.
Who This Is Perfect For
An energetic owner-operator ready to carry the torch forward
A couple where one partner runs the bakery and the other works remotely or locally
Someone seeking a profitable seasonal business with lifestyle balance
A buyer who values legacy, community, and experience, not just numbers
This business has been deeply rewarding. It provided purpose during a challenging chapter of life and grew into something that matters to an entire community. Now it is time for a new owner with passion and energy to guide it into its next chapter.
Come live the good life on Cape Cod—build wealth in the summer, and enjoy freedom the rest of the year.
Serious inquiries only. The right fit matters more than the highest price.
