Description
Revenue: $1,900,000
3-year Average SDE: $210,000
This unique opportunity offers the acquisition of a highly differentiated experiential restaurant and bar concept combining innovative self-pour beverage technology with a full-service New American restaurant and premium bar program. This growing franchise is listed in Entrepreneur's 2026 Franchise 500 rankings. This is the original flagship location in a sought after, high traffic downtown suburban location with management staff in place.
This location along with other establishments in the area were negatively impacted by the main street in the downtown under construction that lasted almost 2-years. Prior to the construction project, revenue was $2.9 million and SDE was $390,000. To replicate this restaurant concept today, it would cost between $1.2 million and $1.4 million before opening the doors.
The business features an interactive self-pour wall offering a curated selection of craft beers, wines and sangrias, complemented by a full bar serving handcrafted cocktails and a chef-driven New American menu. The concept blends hospitality, entertainment and technology, creating a destination venue with broad consumer appeal and strong repeat patronage.
The Company has established a recognized brand in its market by capitalizing on growing consumer demand for experiential dining, craft beverage offerings and social entertainment venues. Its diversified revenue model includes food sales, beverage sales, private events and ancillary growth opportunities.

Strong Customer Loyalty & Brand Equity – Destination-style concept with repeat clientele and community presence.

Expanded private event and corporate bookings
Enhanced digital marketing and loyalty initiatives

Turnkey Restaurant in Prime Location | RE Available Separately
$ 495,000
Confidential sale of a proven full-service restaurant and event venue in Chicago’s western suburbs with multiple revenue streams from dining, bar service, banquets, and live events. The business has generated consistent annual revenue in the $2.1M to $2.3M range and average 3-year normalized SDE of approximately $271K. The business is now priced at $495K to reflect current buyer underwriting and a more financeable transaction structure. The real estate is available separately and consists of a large, purpose-built restaurant facility on a substantial site in a high-visibility suburban corridor. The property offers strong access, meaningful parking capacity, and the infrastructure needed to support daily dining, private events, banquet service, and seasonal demand. This opportunity is well suited for an experienced restaurant operator, hospitality group, or owner-user seeking an established operating platform with real estate ownership, existing staff, event infrastructure, and long-term equity value. SBA financing may be available for qualified buyers, subject to lender approval. All real estate discussions will be handled by Transworld Business Advisors of Schaumburg’s partner and managing real estate brokerage in compliance with Illinois real estate law. There is meaningful upside in expanding catering services and building stronger weekday traffic through community-oriented programming such as trivia nights, bingo, and wine tastings. The private event segment can continue to grow by actively engaging local businesses and organizations for recurring gatherings, holiday parties, funeral luncheons, and special events that utilize the 120-inch projector screen and banquet space. Additional opportunities include improving food margins through portion and vendor optimization, establishing a Wine Club to deepen customer engagement, and introducing a loyalty program to drive repeat visits across all dayparts. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/schaumburg/listings/Turnkey-Restaurant-in-Prime-Location-RE-Available-Separately
