This is a rare chance to acquire a well-established and profitable brunch restaurant located in one of Chicago’s most vibrant and densely populated neighborhoods. The business operates out of a modern, 2,176 sq. ft. ground-floor space in a luxury high-rise, surrounded by thousands of residents, steady foot traffic, and well-known local destinations. The area offers consistent demand from young professionals, long-time residents, and visitors drawn to nearby entertainment, the lakefront, and major transit routes.

The restaurant is known for its creative brunch-forward menu, distinctive flavors, and strong brand identity that resonates with both locals and tourists. With roughly 80 seats, a fully equipped commercial kitchen, and food and liquor licenses included in the sale, it is built for high-volume daytime service. The space was fully gutted and rebuilt from scratch in 2020 with more than $600,000 invested in new plumbing, electrical work, and a complete modern build-out, giving the new owner a high-quality, long-lasting infrastructure. All décor, equipment, smallwares, recipes, and branding materials are in excellent condition and well maintained. The business also comes with a loyal and trained staff, a polished website, and social media accounts totaling more than 25,000 followers across platforms.

One of the major advantages of this opportunity is the operational structure. The systems in place—covering point-of-sale, online ordering, inventory tracking, and staff scheduling—are technology-driven and efficient, allowing the restaurant to operate smoothly even without the owner onsite full time. For a buyer looking to step into a turnkey business with limited ramp-up time, this setup adds significant value.

The lease is another strength. The space is offered under a gross lease at $10,000 per month, with five years remaining on the first 10-year term and two additional five-year options available. Access to garage parking, proximity to Lake Shore Drive, the lakefront trail, and major CTA bus & train lines all contribute to the location’s appeal and ease of access for both guests and staff.

The surrounding neighborhood offers a strong mix of residential density, high household incomes, and a customer base that frequently dines out. The high renter rate ensures a constant flow of new potential customers, while long-time residents help maintain year-round stability.

There is also meaningful room for a new owner to grow the business. Opportunities include extending hours, adding dinner or evening service, expanding catering and delivery, and exploring wholesale or retail opportunities for the restaurant’s signature products. With an established brand, strong online presence, and a proven concept, the foundation is already in place for someone to take the business to the next stage.

This sale includes everything a buyer needs to continue operations from day one: furniture, fixtures, equipment, licenses, recipes, branding and marketing assets, inventory, and staffing. The current owner is willing to provide one month of hands-on training and support at no additional cost to ensure a smooth transition.

This turnkey operation offers the stability of an established business and the upside of a growing market—making it a compelling option for an experienced operator, an investor, or someone looking to step into Chicago’s thriving restaurant scene with a strong head start.
