Turnkey Hospitality Café & Bar | Transferable Liquor License | Pr
$ 800,000
This is the one buyers wait for. Fully built-out, modernized hospitality concept in one of Baltimore's most sought-after waterfront neighborhoods — ready to operate from day one. Approximately 3278 sq ft of beautifully designed space featuring indoor seating capacity of 80, outdoor seating for 16 guests, and a brand-new cocktail bar operating under an active, transferable liquor license. Five diversified revenue streams already in motion: specialty coffee, in-house roasting, food service, floral and event programming, cocktail/bar operations, and wholesale roasting. The infrastructure is built. The staff is in place. The liquor license transfers with the sale. An entertainment license is in process — meaning live events and expanded evening programming are right around the corner. The hard work is done. The next owner walks into a fully operational, modernized hospitality platform with real upside still on the table. A new owner could accelerate growth through: • Live entertainment and speakeasy programming — entertainment license pending; immediately actionable upon approval • Private events and space rental — layout, liquor license, and floral capability position the venue as a premium private event destination • Wholesale coffee expansion — roasting infrastructure supports significant additional wholesale volume beyond the current 2 accounts • Wedding and event florals — naturally bundled with venue and coffee brand; actively growing • Government, corporate, and institutional catering — an untapped channel the current owners have not pursued • Increased marketing and digital presence — limited paid marketing to date; brand visibility represents an accessible near-term growth lever • Potential expansion to additional locations — proven concept and brand infrastructure https://tworld.com/locations/Maryland/dcdowntown/listings/Turnkey-Hospitality-Café-Bar-Transferable-Liquor-License-Pr

Profitable Turnkey Restaurant with Seller Financing & Long Lease
$ 515,000
This is an opportunity to acquire a well-established, cash-flow-positive restaurant brand with a long operating history, consistent customer demand, and a long-term lease in place through 2033. The business has demonstrated resilience across economic cycles, supported by strong repeat local traffic, steady delivery demand, and disciplined cost controls. Financial performance remains solid, with healthy gross margins and reliable cash flow generation. Updated 2025 results reinforce the business’s ability to operate profitably despite inflationary pressures affecting labor, food costs, and occupancy expenses. SDE remains strong relative to the valuation of $515,000, presenting an attractive return profile for an owner-operator or a buyer seeking a financeable, stabilized hospitality asset with meaningful upside. Preliminary lender discussions indicate the business qualifies for SBA financing in excess of the asking price for qualified buyers. This level of financeability provides confidence in both the earnings strength and underwriting viability of the operation, while creating a substantial equity cushion relative to the entry price. The transaction includes full rights to the Starvin Marvin brand name, logo, trade dress, and restaurant operating identity, with one geographic or expansion restriction into Gaithersburg. The buyer will have the ability to operate and expand the concept into additional locations without royalty obligations. The proprietary Mambo Sauce intellectual property is not included in the sale and will remain owned by the seller’s wholesale entity; however, the restaurant will continue to source the sauce under a supply arrangement to preserve product consistency and brand continuity. Operationally, the business benefits from streamlined systems, an experienced team to help with transition, and a manageable footprint that allows ownership to focus on growth initiatives rather than turnaround efforts. The seller has proactively begun transitioning staffing from family-member involvement to trained non-family employees to ensure operational continuity and transferability. This reduces dependency risk and enhances lender comfort. The business operates under a long-term triple-net lease extending through December 31, 2033, providing location stability and eliminating near-term renewal uncertainty. The tenant maintains a strong compliance history and a cooperative landlord relationship, supporting a smoother transition for a qualified buyer. To facilitate alignment and reduce upfront capital requirements, the seller is offering up to 10% seller financing. The seller will also provide 21 days of structured post-sale transition support and is willing to remain under an employment agreement for an extended period if desired by the buyer or required by SBA underwriting. Overall, this offering represents more than a single-location resale. It is the acquisition of a proven restaurant brand with transferable goodwill, stable cash flow, expansion capability, and lender-backed valuation support — positioned at a competitive entry point for a buyer seeking both security and scalability. The real estate component adds further stability. The business operates under a long-term triple-net lease extending through December 31, 2033, providing location continuity and eliminating near-term lease renewal risk. While landlord approval is required for assignment, the tenant has a strong compliance history and a cooperative landlord relationship, which supports a smoother transition for a qualified buyer. To facilitate a transaction and align incentives, the seller is offering up to 10% seller financing, lowering the buyer’s required cash at closing and signaling confidence in the ongoing performance of the business. The opening bid of $450,000 represents a meaningful reset relative to prior pricing expectations and positions the business attractively against comparable market opportunities. Overall, this is a compelling acquisition for a buyer seeking a proven operation with steady cash flow, long-term site stability, and a reasonable entry point—without the uncertainty typically associated with early-stage or distressed restaurant assets. https://tworld.com/locations/Maryland/centralmaryland/listings/Profitable-Turnkey-Restaurant-with-Seller-Financing-Long-Lease
