This Charlotte, NC pizzeria for sale is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational, turnkey NY-style quick service pizza business in one of Charlotte's fastest-growing neighborhoods. Generating $275,000+ in annualized gross revenue from a compact 1,100 sq ft space, this pizza business for sale offers one of the lowest occupancy costs in the Charlotte restaurant market — monthly rent of $3,439 all-in, including CAM, water, and waste removal. No additional occupancy charges.
The operation is simple, proven, and ready to generate revenue from day one. The menu is focused and efficient — authentic NY-style pizza by the slice and whole pie — with strong in-house and delivery sales across DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Slice. The business carries a 4.5-star Google rating and a 98.5 health inspection score with an established base of loyal repeat customers and strong neighborhood goodwill.


THE LOCATION
This Charlotte pizza restaurant for sale is situated in a beautiful, modern shopping center built in 2020 — anchored by nationally recognized tenants and designed around the walkability of the surrounding schools and residential neighborhoods. The center benefits from strong daily foot traffic, excellent accessibility, and a well-maintained environment that reflects the affluence of the surrounding community. The pizzeria's interior mirrors the quality of the shopping center itself — everything inside is in excellent condition consistent with a 2020 buildout. Located just a few streets away from Cotswold — one of Charlotte's most affluent neighborhoods with a median household income exceeding $130,000 and an average household income of $224,000 — the surrounding trade area includes Myers Park, Plaza Midwood, and Eastover. These are high-income corridors in Mecklenburg County with strong discretionary spending and an underserved demand for authentic NY-style pizza.
Charlotte's population is projected to reach 923,000 in 2026 and continues to grow at 1.1% annually, expanding the customer base year over year.

THE ASSETS
All equipment is included and in excellent condition. This turnkey Charlotte pizzeria includes a double-deck Bakers Pride pizza oven, commercial hood system, walk-in cooler, Eurodib dough mixer, commercial gas fryer, multiple refrigeration units, Toast POS with kiosk, grease trap, full smallwares package, and complete restaurant infrastructure. Estimated replacement cost of equipment and buildout is approximately $125,000.


WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY STANDS OUT
For an established pizza operator or experienced restaurant owner looking to expand in Charlotte, this location offers a chance to enter a proven residential corridor without the cost, risk, or time of a ground-up buildout. The infrastructure is in place, customers are already there, and the business is currently semi-absentee, with the owner visiting 1–2 times per week while staff handles day-to-day operations independently.

The lease is secured at a below-market all-in rent that a new tenant would likely struggle to replicate today. The concept is also easily rebranded — a buyer with an established NY-style pizza name could plug directly into this operation and leverage their reputation to grow revenue beyond the current baseline. Upside remains through catering, extended hours, school/community marketing, and expanded delivery.


SELLER FINANCING
Seller financing available for qualified buyers with a strong down payment. Preferred structure is approximately 70% down, 8–10% interest on the financed balance, and a 2–3 year maximum term. Experienced restaurant operators preferred.
