Description
A fully built-out restaurant space featuring a modern, professionally built-out space with high-quality furniture, fixtures and equipment located on a proven retail and dining corridor. Asset sale - all FF&E included.
The franchise or brand is not included in the sale, making this an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or multi-unit group to introduce their own franchise or independent concept without the time, cost and risk of a full ground-up build.
The space features a contemporary layout designed for fast-casual and quick-service operations, with an efficient customer service line, a fully vented commercial kitchen, and durable finishes throughout.
The build-out was designed to accommodate high-volume operations and supports dine-in, carryout, delivery and 3rd-party ordering with minimal modification. Significant capital has already been invested in infrastructure, allowing a new operator to step in and focus on branding and menu execution rather than construction.
This is a rare chance to acquire a nearly move-in-ready restaurant footprint in a sought-after northwest suburb at a fraction of replacement cost, with immediate speed-to-market and long-term upside.
Bring your concept here to this incredible location! Not permitted (due to existing exclusives) - breakfast place, coffee shop and sandwich shop.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
• Significant cost savings versus building from scratch
• Avoid months of construction delays and permitting uncertainty
• Flexible layout works for a wide range of restaurant or food concepts
• Immediate path to opening with minimal downtime
• Perfect for owner-operators, multi-unit restaurateurs or investors
Prime retail space in a busy neighborhood strip center along with a popular breakfast place, wine store, hair salon and fitness center, plus national sandwich shop and coffee shop.
Perfectly situated at a signalized intersection of a strong commercial corridor just off the interchange of a major route with over 27,500 vehicles per day.
This location offers excellent accessibility for both residents and commuters, with strong visibility, easy ingress/egress and convenient parking that supports dine-in, carryout and delivery-driven concepts.
The strip center features a strong, complementary tenant mix creating consistent all-day traffic with co-tenants producing repeat visits throughout the day and week. Its blend of food, beverage, fitness and service retail drives habitual customer behavior and makes the center an established neighborhood destination.
And directly behind the center is a large office park with a dense concentration of office, medical, fitness, healthcare, technology and professional services. This immediate nearby daytime population provides a built-in customer base for lunch, grab-and-go, catering and repeat weekday traffic, significantly strengthening sales potential.
The center is also adjacent to two large apartment complexes supplying dense nearby rooftops that support evening dining, late-day takeout and delivery demand. This rare combination of retail/dining co-tenancy, office/professional density and immediate residential adjacency creates a balanced day-to-night traffic profile ideal for a wide range of restaurant concepts.
Finally, the property benefits from being next to a major redevelopment site and a major long-term regional catalyst. This future development project further enhances the area’s visibility, infrastructure investment and long-term upside, making the location particularly attractive for operators seeking both immediate demand and future growth potential!

Market & Competition
his location offers strong dining demand supported by dense residential/professional uses. The restaurant is well-positioned within a convenience-driven strip center that benefits from repeat traffic generated by co-tenants/nearby apartments. And its proximity to an office park provides consistent weekday lunch/takeout demand. Plus, high daily traffic from a major interchange, provides strong visibility/commuter exposure. Combined with nearby residential density & future area redevelopment, this rare opportunity supports long-term sustained demand!
Growth Opportunities
Significant upside through leveraging the existing build-out to open quickly. The existing layout is well-suited for high off-premise volume, making it attractive for brands focused on digital sales or 3rd-party delivery. Expanding delivery, online ordering, catering & lunch-focused offerings would drive incremental sales given nearby offices, professional services & apartments. And long-term growth is supported by an adjacent major redevelopment, which is expected to increase regional traffic, employment & consumer activity in the surrounding area!
