Own an Iconic Carmel Pizzeria-Motivated Owner Retiring-Loyal Staff in Place
$ 365,000
The Setup 38 years. One location. One owner. Now it's time for the next chapter. The current owner built something real in Carmel—a pizzeria that became part of the community. Steady customers. Loyal staff. Predictable revenue. But after nearly four decades, they're ready to retire. That creates an opportunity for you: step into an established, operating restaurant with customers already lined up, staff ready to work with you, and systems that already function. This isn't a distressed sale or a failing concept. This is a successful business owner making a planned, intentional exit—which means a smooth transition and a serious buyer advantage. Why This Matters Motivated sellers create opportunities. The owner wants to see their legacy continue. They want the right person or team to take this forward. That alignment—between a retiring owner ready to help with transition and a buyer ready to grow the business—is exactly what makes restaurant acquisitions work. And the staff? They've been here. They know the customers. They know the operation. That's not something you can build quickly; it's something you inherit when you buy the right business. What You're Stepping Into ✓ Established Revenue Stream – ~$847,000 in annual gross sales (3-year average) ✓ Real Cash Flow – ~$73,000 in conservative adjusted earnings ✓ Trained, Loyal Staff – Team familiar with daily operations, customer relationships, and systems ✓ Built-In Customer Base – Dine-in, takeout, delivery, and event customers already established ✓ Prime Location – Carmel. Alongside the highway next to a major hotel. Exceptional visibility and traffic. ✓ Active Licenses – ABC Type 41 (Beer & Wine) + Type 58 (Caterer Permit) ✓ Turnkey Equipment – Ready to operate day one ✓ Lease Security – Term through September 2027 + options (SBA-friendly for qualified buyers) The Numbers (3-Year Conservative Average) • Gross Annual Revenue: $847,000 • Adjusted Cash Flow: $73,000 • Monthly Occupancy Cost: ~$7,900 • Seating: ~100 (2,672 sq ft + 489 sq ft heated patio) Why a Pizzeria Works Pizzerias are proven. Simple menu. Strong margins. Multiple revenue channels—dine-in, takeout, delivery, catering, private events. Customer loyalty is built in. Operational complexity is low. Profit potential is real. This pizzeria has been doing exactly that for 38 years. The Upside The current owner ran a solid operation. You acquire a stable foundation. Then you grow it: • Private events and group dining (currently underdeveloped) • Expanded catering and off-site revenue • Enhanced digital marketing and online ordering • Operational refinement and labor optimization • Menu and beverage program expansion The business runs well at $73K in annual cash flow. A motivated operator? There's real room to move that number higher. Transition Support Because the owner is retiring intentionally—not forced out—they're available to help with the handoff. Training. Customer introductions. Staff continuity. Operational guidance. That kind of partnership during transition is invaluable and not always available in restaurant acquisitions. Who This Is For • Experienced restaurant operators looking for your next proven location • Chefs ready to own and operate • Hospitality groups seeking an established, profitable concept • Entrepreneurs who want to step into a working business rather than build from zero • Anyone looking for a legitimate, cash-flowing business with growth potential The Reality This is a real restaurant. Real customers. Real revenue. Real staff. Real opportunity. Not a concept pitch. Not a space fantasy. A business that's worked for 38 years and is ready for the next owner who'll take it forward. Opportunities like this—established, profitable, with a motivated seller ready to facilitate a smooth transition and a team ready to support you—don't sit on the market long in Carmel. Confidential sale. NDA required. Contact Carmel Business Sales to learn more about acquiring this iconic Carmel pizzeria with a motivated, retiring owner and established team ready to support your transition.

Pacific Grove, California
GROWING MEN’S BOUTIQUE IN PACIFIC GROVE: 2026 SALES ON PACE FOR ~$55K, LOW RENT
$ 88,000
An established men’s boutique in downtown Pacific Grove, offered as an asset sale while the business is in an active stage of growth. Rent is just $1,225 per month with all utilities included and no NNN, under a favorable lease through 2028 with annual renewal options. The store has a loyal customer base, a live e-commerce site, and a brand identity that would be difficult to replicate from scratch. The business sources limited-run, globally curated menswear from independent vendors around the world, offering customers pieces they simply won’t find anywhere else. A personalized, high-touch shopping experience has built strong word-of-mouth and consistent repeat traffic. Revenue has grown every year since opening in 2023. Through mid-September 2026, the Pacific Grove store alone has nearly matched all of 2025 and is on pace for roughly $55,000 this year, all without a formal marketing program. The holiday season, historically the store’s busiest and most profitable stretch, is still ahead. The store is currently open just four afternoons a week (Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, noon to 5:00 p.m.). Mondays were chosen to capture the strong foot traffic from the Pacific Grove farmers market, and the recently opened Kimpton hotel nearby has brought a noticeable increase in visitors and shoppers. The store also benefits from Pacific Grove’s monthly First Fridays, when downtown businesses stay open late, a popular annual holiday event that draws significant crowds, and regular pop-up appearances. The store occupies approximately 800 square feet at a prime downtown Pacific Grove address. One part-time employee is in place. The sale includes all furniture, fixtures, equipment, vendor relationships, a live e-commerce store, social media accounts, and branding assets. The sellers are available for a transition period. Growth upside is significant and straightforward: the store operates only about 20 hours a week, no marketing program currently exists, and e-commerce has room to scale. Extending days and hours, hosting additional in-store events, increasing pop-up appearances, and expanding vendor relationships are natural next steps for a new owner ready to put energy behind a strong foundation.
