Aptos, California
Turnkey 1,100 SF Café/Restaurant – Prime Aptos Location – New 2025 Build-Out
$ 297,000
Here’s a great opportunity to acquire a beautifully built-out café/restaurant in a high-traffic shopping center in Aptos, CA. This is a rare chance to step into a fully equipped, professionally designed food service space with all new equipment and recent 2025 remodel. The business is currently operated with a manager and employees, with the owner living out of the country. The space features approximately 1,100 square feet, excellent visibility, and ample parking in a well-established retail center. Lease is very reasonable at $3,600/month plus NNN, with a cooperative landlord. This is being sold primarily as an asset sale. The full kitchen is underutilized, making this an ideal opportunity for an experienced operator to introduce a new or expanded concept such as fast casual eatery, or light restaurant. Revenue was in an upward trend in 2025, but due to the Seller experiencing health-related issues, the sale of this business must occur. This is a true turnkey facility with FF&E included, minimal startup friction, and strong upside potential through concept repositioning, extended hours, and delivery/catering. Ideal for an owner-operator or small group seeking a plug-and-play restaurant space in a premier coastal market. Contact Carmel Business Sales today for more information.

Specializing in a broad spectrum of events—including weddings, graduations, anniversary parties, tradeshows, proms, corporate events, and Mitzvahs—the firm manages every detail from theme and design development to budget control and timeline management together with a noble repeat client list. The company is known for its immersive approach, coordinating everything from corporate galas for 1,000 guests to intimate gatherings of 40. Operations are supported by a primary facility of 12,000+ square feet and an additional 1,100 square foot shop space. § Key Highlights · Generational Reputation: Family-owned with deep-seated community roots. · Turnkey Infrastructure: Includes established websites, social media accounts, and a professional fleet (2 cab-over Box Trucks, flat-bed golf cart and 1 Ford Van). · Specialized Asset Base: Extensive inventory of themed props, décor, lounge furniture, and lighting. · Growth Potential (Floral Division): A major opportunity exists for a new buyer to re-establish the floral department. This high-margin revenue stream is currently dormant following the passing of a long-time manager, representing immediate "low-hanging fruit" for expansion. · Retirement Opportunity: Current owners are retiring, offering a solid operational foundation with significant room to scale through formalized digital marketing. § Business Details · Staffing: One full-time manager supported by a skilled team of 13 part-time employees. · Facilities: Primary facility lease ($5,400/mo) is fixed through May 2027; secondary shop space is leased at $1,150/mo. · Service Mix: Historically driven by short-term rentals and service fees ($543,301 in 2025 YTD), with weddings accounting for approximately 8.4% of current revenue. · Inventory: Significant current inventory valued at $675,000; the most recent balance sheet shows over $61,000 in props and $89,000 in original vehicle costs. § Opportunity The business is perfectly positioned for a creative entrepreneur or an existing event firm looking to expand into a turnkey, full-service operation. The recent drop in floral activity provides a clear path for a new owner to immediately increase gross margins by re-staffing that department. With a high-value, specialized inventory and deep roots in the California market, this firm offers a rare entry into the premium event production industry at a price supported by a massive asset base. Full financials and additional documentation are available upon signing an NDA.
