Business Overview:
Turnkey Tap House & Restaurant - Downtown Maple Park, IL!
“Freestanding Building - Full Bar With Rotating Draft Beer System - Fully Equipped Kitchen - Screened-In Patio”
Exceptional opportunity to acquire an established, turnkey tap house and restaurant in the heart of downtown Maple Park, Kane County, IL!
Three ways to acquire: buy the business assets for $65,000, including furniture, fixtures, equipment, build-out, trade name and goodwill, plus a new lease; lease it fully equipped at an affordable $3,500 per month with landlord-owned FF&E included in the rent; or buy the building with FF&E for $350,000.
Opened in 2017, this independent gastropub built a loyal following for its Illinois-focused craft beer lineup, historically offering more than 100 bottled and canned beers, plus beer-battered cheese curds, Bavarian pretzels, specialty sandwiches and elevated pub fare. Its award-winning smash burger was named WGN-TV Chicago’s Best Burger.
A 4.5-star Google rating with 760+ reviews, plus positive Restaurantji, TripAdvisor and BeerAdvocate reviews, reflect a strong reputation. Keep the recipes, website and customer loyalty program, or introduce your own concept and branding. Ideal for a neighborhood bar & grill, sports bar, gastropub, craft beer bar or wine-focused concept.

Market Competition and Expansion:
Affordable entry into restaurant ownership: an established location, existing kitchen, bar infrastructure and build-out for a fraction of the cost of opening a comparable restaurant from scratch. Manageable occupancy costs let an incoming owner focus on operations, customer experience and business development instead of a costly construction project.
Ideal for an experienced restaurant operator, craft beer enthusiast, first-time owner or hospitality group seeking an affordable expansion opportunity. Multiple growth opportunities: introduce lunch, Monday-Tuesday service and extended hours. Host private gatherings and special events on the patio. Increase online ordering, takeout and third-party delivery.
Develop a catering program to extend sales beyond the four walls. Build community engagement with beer tastings, sports viewing parties, live music and seasonal promotions. Reintroduce membership programs, beer clubs and recurring specials to drive repeat visits. Enhance marketing through social media, local partnerships and targeted promotions. Video gaming potential, as the location previously operated gaming terminals.
