Description
This 2,278 SF location will lease for $5,000 per month on a new 5 year lease with one 5 year option to extend. All of the venue’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and Type 48 Liquor License will be included in the sale. An estimated $3k in inventory will be sold at cost at close in addition to purchase price. The venue boasts a recent $350k remodel, with full plumbing and electrical being renovated down to the studs. The facility owns its pool table and ice machine, and has a walk-in keg cooler, 16 beers on tap, 9 flat screen TVs, 7 high top tables and 2 booths. The juke box is on a 50% split.
Currently absentee owner. Could benefit from hands on owner and expanding hours.
Nearby venues often attract patrons with themed nights, pool tables, and late-night hours, appealing to the same crowd looking for a laid-back yet social atmosphere. However, many competitors lack the combination of consistently rotating events, upscale touches, and wide drink selections, giving this spot an edge in standing out within a densely packed bar scene.
As the venue is absentee operated, it could benefit from a hands on owner-operator with hospitality industry experience, and potentially, extended hours. The bar’s strong following for its energetic nightlife, themed entertainment, and diverse drink selection opens up multiple avenues for growth -ranging from hosting larger-scale events to expanding hours or partnering with local brands and artists. With its distinctive vibe and loyal crowd appeal, the venue is well-positioned to tap into the area’s dynamic, socially driven clientele and evolving nightlife trends.

Marina del Rey, California
Brennan's Pub in Marina del Rey - First Time on the Open Market!
$ 275,000
This iconic Marina del Rey bar and restaurant, which has been the home to Los Angeles's famous turtle races since 1975, has been a neighborhood favorite with locals and visitors alike since 1972. The indoor and outdoor venue, which occupies an enormous stand-alone pad space, boasts main street frontage with unparalleled freeway access and an abundance of onsite parking. The premise is comprised of a full-scale restaurant, bar and kitchen, and enjoys an entirely separate structure with a prep kitchen with a large walk-in, manager’s office and more. The facility has an outdoor bar that serves patrons on the venue’s 3 distinct outside areas. The entire space has been remodeled in recent years, with significant capital invested. This is not an SBA candidate as financials will not be provided in the sale. Do not disturb the business or the staff. This 3,500 square foot bar and restaurant with an additional 1,700 square feet of food preparation space is located across 3 lots that total 33k (approx.) square feet. The premise leases for $25k per month, with an additional $1k per month in additional expenses on a lease until April 2027 with one five year option with additional options to be negotiated. All of the business's furniture, fixtures, equipment and Type 48 Liquor License, Type 77 Event Permit and live entertainment entitlements will be included in the sale. Approximately $5k - $10k in inventory will be sold at cost. While competition exists in this highly popular bar and entertainment area, this venue has a 50+ year track record for being one of the neighborhood’s favorite eateries and watering holes for viewing sports, celebrating holidays or attending special events. New operators may choose to maintain the long-established existing concept or they may capitalize on the stellar location’s buildout, patio, parking lot, liquor and events licenses, and entertainment permit to launch any number of new concepts. Although they have a substantial kitchen and food preparation space, the venue operates with a Type 48 Liquor License. As a result, they can only cater to patrons that are 21 years old and older. New management may choose to ‘downgrade’ the license to a food service one and launch a concept that can expand the client base to include younger patrons and families. One of the property’s 3 parcels is an approximate 5,000 square lawn that measures between 48 and 55 feet wide and 80 to 116 feet long. This space could potentially host pickleball as a pickleball court measures 20 by 44 feet, with a recommended 30 by 60 foot court size. Just as some venues host dart tournaments, this one may capitalize on their spacious lot(s) to do the same with the sport that continues to grow in popularity.
