Located at 798 Brannan Street, this high-visibility corner property has been a neighborhood staple since 1994, known for its welcoming atmosphere, creative cocktails, flavorful food, and one of the city’s most popular and spacious outdoor patios. The approximately 2,000 square foot interior features a stylish bar, full-service kitchen, and seating for up to 100 guests indoors. The expansive outdoor patio—a rare asset in San Francisco—comfortably seats 70+ patrons, making the space ideal for happy hours, weekend brunch, corporate gatherings, and private events. The venue also includes a versatile back lounge with a pool table that converts into a banquet table or DJ platform, along with a dedicated DJ booth, making it well-suited for both casual and upscale programming. The total event capacity is approximately 250 guests. The business is offered turnkey, including all furniture, fixtures, and equipment, along with a Type 47 full liquor license (allowing service until 2am) and a full entertainment license—making this one of the few venues in San Francisco licensed and ready for late-night programming. The surrounding area is home to several major tech companies, including Airbnb, and the return-to-office trend is gaining momentum throughout 2025. In addition, a number of AI and technology firms have recently signed new leases nearby, signaling renewed confidence in the SoMa office market. As a result, weekday foot traffic has increased noticeably, with lunch and early evening business trending upward. The kitchen is fully equipped with a commercial hood, range, refrigeration, and ample prep space. Mars Bar has built a loyal and diverse customer base of professionals, locals, and visitors. It’s well-regarded for its lively event calendar, which includes Taco Tuesdays, weekend DJs, salsa dancing, comedy nights, and other rotating activities.

Housed in a historic 1906 building, the space reflects classic SF charm while remaining relevant through decades of change. For buyers interested in continuing the name, Mars Bar may qualify for San Francisco’s Legacy Business Program, offering further protection and support. The business is qualified to become a legacy business with keeping the name and the landlord will provide a new long-term lease at a highly competitive base rent of $3,000/month, offering unmatched value in a central SoMa location.

Established Pizza Restaurant in High Traffic San Francisco Neighborhood
$ 295,000
Established Pizza Restaurant in High Traffic San Francisco Neighborhood RRC# 5075 Location: San Francisco Description: Pizza restaurant opportunity available in a densely populated residential and commercial district of downtown San Francisco. This high-visibility, well-designed location has long operated as a successful, upscale pizzeria and presents an ideal stepping stone for an experienced operator ready to bring their own brand or concept to a proven space. While the business name, brand, and menu are not included in the sale, the infrastructure is perfectly suited for another pizza-focused concept or fast-casual brand. The space includes a beautiful pizza oven, open kitchen layout, and thoughtful design that reflects the aesthetics of a modern, artisan-style pizzeria. This is a rare chance to inherit the goodwill, consistent foot traffic, and built-in customer base from one of the city’s most respected restaurant addresses—without the costs of starting from scratch. The restaurant is ideally set up for dine-in business and delivery/takeout, with strong weekday and weekend demand in this bustling, high-density neighborhood. There is significant opportunity to expand operating hours and increase revenue. The current owner has gradually reduced the schedule over time due to personal circumstances, and the restaurant now operates only five days a week with limited evening hours. A new owner could immediately capitalize by extending service into additional days and later hours. The surrounding area is home to numerous hotels, live music venues, theaters, and entertainment attractions—creating strong demand for pre- and post-event dining throughout the week. The premises feature a stylish indoor dining area with modern finishes, a lofted mezzanine ideal for private dining or flexible office use, and a full basement that provides ample space for prep and storage. The restaurant also benefits from a rear patio, offering valuable outdoor seating options, including private dining. The lease is favorable, with seven years remaining (including options), and there is the potential to negotiate a further extension with the landlord. This opportunity is well-suited for a chef-owner, restaurateur, or pizza operator looking to enter or expand in the San Francisco market. A full equipment list and additional financials are available upon request.
