Restaurant for Sale in Florida — Turnkey Cafe, Bakery & Coffee Concept with Significant Growth PotentialTake advantage of a rare restaurant for sale in Florida featuring a fully built-out, second-generation coffee concept with the hard work already done. This 2,728-square-foot operation offers 48 indoor seats, a 24-seat patio, ample parking, commercial hood system, grease trap, extensive equipment package, and an included beer and wine license. The business provides an established foundation with significant room to scale through wholesale, distribution, catering, corporate accounts, private events, delivery, online ordering, and expanded operating hours. A new owner can retain the current concept, add their own creative spin, or completely reimagine the space.The beer and wine license creates a compelling opportunity to develop a cafe-after-dark concept. Extend hours and transition from morning coffee, breakfast, and bakery traffic into an evening destination featuring beer, wine, happy hour, tastings, acoustic entertainment, date-night offerings, pop-ups, and private events. This creates the potential to activate the space during additional dayparts and introduce new revenue opportunities beyond the traditional cafe model.Presented exclusively by We Sell Restaurants, this asset sale offers the advantages of a substantial second-generation restaurant buildout without the time, expense, and uncertainty of a ground-up project. The location benefits from a diverse Florida market with residential, professional, educational, and commercial activity, creating multiple customer segments and opportunities for repeat business.The restaurant is fully equipped for cafe, bakery, coffee, and hot food production, with an exceptionally well-maintained kitchen—a notable advantage over many second-generation spaces. The sale includes a commercial coffee roaster and dedicated exhaust system representing approximately $50,000 in investment alone, creating additional potential for coffee production, private-label products, wholesale, and distribution. Major equipment includes Southbend double oven, Forno stove, La Marzocco and Nuova Simonelli espresso machines, Mahlkonig grinders, Ground Control brewer, Bevles proofer, Avantco refrigeration and ice machine, display case, cold brew dispenser, dual dishwashers, stainless prep tables, and more. Indoor and outdoor furniture is included.The flexible layout includes production space, service counter, storage, indoor dining, and patio seating suitable for everyday dining, events, parties, pop-ups, and private gatherings. Existing plumbing, electrical, utilities, hood infrastructure, grease trap, and restaurant improvements can significantly reduce startup costs and time. A long-term lease is in place through 2040 with renewal options, with current base rent of $7,900 per month.The operation already has a foundation in wholesale and off-site sales, providing a proven starting point for a buyer looking to expand this channel. Existing production capabilities create significant opportunity to grow wholesale accounts, corporate orders, packaged bakery and food products, catering, and distribution to additional businesses and locations. Increase production volume, develop new accounts, expand the product mix, and turn this currently limited revenue channel into a much larger part of the business.The seller is retiring and will provide a negotiated training period to assist with the transition. A staff of approximately 13 employees is currently in place.Whether you want to grow the existing cafe and bakery, expand wholesale and distribution, create a cafe-after-dark, add events and catering, increase production, or introduce an entirely new concept, this opportunity provides the infrastructure, equipment, licensing, and flexibility to build something significantly larger.By providing your phone number to We Sell Restaurants, you are agreeing to receive text notifications.
