Prime Full Service Restaurant in the Big Bear Lake Village
Business Description
Prime Full-Service Restaurant for Sale or Lease in Big Bear Lake Village
An exceptional opportunity to lease one of Big Bear Lake’s most established full-service restaurants. Successfully operated for over 20 years, this highly visible property is located directly on Big Bear Blvd., across from the lake and the Visitors’ Center, benefiting from constant year-round foot traffic.
Rebuilt in 2003, the restaurant offers nearly 7,000 square feet of interior space with seating for 235 guests, plus a 1,400-square-foot outdoor patio accommodating an additional 93 seats. The craftsman-style interior features distinctive architectural details, including a Greene & Greene–inspired staircase, custom doors, high-quality built-ins, and a unique host station.
The layout includes five separate dining areas, providing flexibility for multiple concepts, private events, live entertainment, or large group service. Highlights include two downstairs dining rooms (one with booths and a fireplace, the other with an antique bar), a spacious patio with bar potential, and an expansive upstairs venue that can function as one large room or be divided into two areas, complete with a second antique bar.
The oversized kitchen is well designed for high-volume service, catering, and events. Off-street parking of 25–85 spaces is available. The lessor maintains exterior building elements, snow removal, the fire sprinkler system and dumbwaiter. No personnel elevator. Includes Liquor License 47 and Catering License 58.
Surrounded by an on-site hotel, this property enjoys a built-in customer base and unmatched seating capacity—an outstanding opportunity in one of Southern California’s premier mountain destinations.
