A premier turn-key acquisition opportunity in the vibrant heart of downtown Santa Cruz. This unique sports bar is in a rapidly developing coastal corridor, the establishment benefits from high foot traffic, an established live music permit, and a desirable outdoor seating area. This recently remodeled facility includes all essential components for immediate operational success, including an ABC license. This is a rare chance to step into a fully equipped, professionally designed food service space with new equipment and a recent remodel.

With a distinguished 32-year history as a cornerstone of the local hospitality scene, the location boasts a loyal customer base of neighborhood regulars. This continuity ensures a stable revenue stream for the incoming owner from the outset. The outdoor patio area, currently underutilized, offers substantial potential to increase seating capacity and enhance the dining experience.

The immediate surrounding area is undergoing significant densification, with several residential high-rises and a new hotel development situated within a 5-minute walking radius. This growth places thousands of potential patrons within immediate proximity.

This is the owner’s 7th startup. They usually run a business for 4-5 years. They have created a great template for someone to start with and build on. This creates a rare opportunity for an investor to acquire a renovated asset. With a favorable lease in place and a strategic location in one of the region’s most desirable coastal markets, this establishment is poised for continued growth and robust financial performance. Unfortunately, the owner must step away due to health concerns.

This is a turnkey operation with staff in place, and the seller is willing to provide training to ensure a smooth transition. Facility specifications and amenities can be provided upon request.

Growth Opportunities:
A new owner could significantly grow the business by:
+ Expanding operating hours (currently open 58hrs per week)
+ Enhancing use of the outdoor patio
+ Introducing private events and renting out the upstairs lounge area
+ Introducing karaoke, quiz night, and comedy night
