CONFIDENTIAL LISTING — DOUGLAS COUNTY, CO Upscale Restaurant & Bar — Douglas County, CO Full-service breakfast, lunch & dinner | Full liquor license | Prime downtown location Name and address disclosed after NDA ASKING PRICE: $899,999 PROJECTED ANNUAL REVENUE: $2.3M (seller projection) ACTUAL REVENUE (Jun–Dec 2025): $1,289,169 (7 months of operations) MONTHLY RENT: ~$20,000 (lease terms disclosed post-NDA) THE OPPORTUNITY This is one of Douglas County's most talked-about new restaurant concepts — open since June 2025 and already tracking toward $2.3 million in first-year revenue. A rare opportunity to acquire a high-momentum, fully built-out restaurant with a proven concept, strong community following, and significant upside as operations mature into their second year. BUSINESS OVERVIEW This upscale casual eatery serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner seven days a week from a prime downtown location in one of Colorado's fastest-growing communities. The concept delivers elevated comfort cuisine alongside a full bar with craft cocktails, curated wines, and local draft beer — positioning it above fast casual while remaining accessible and family-friendly. The restaurant features a seasonally inspired menu spanning all dayparts, with price points ranging from $14 to $48. The full bar program, live entertainment on weekends, private event capabilities, catering services, and online ordering through a modern POS system create multiple revenue streams that reduce dependence on any single channel. The concept has quickly built a loyal following, earning consistent 5-star reviews for food quality, attentive service, stunning decor, and a vibrant atmosphere. Live entertainment — piano, guitar, saxophone, and special ticketed events — drives strong repeat visit frequency and positions the business as a true dining destination. KEY HIGHLIGHTS → Strong revenue ramp: Generated $1.29M in just 7 months of operations (Jun–Dec 2025), with monthly revenue trending upward through year-end and projecting $2.3M annualized. → Premium, diversified menu: All-day dining across breakfast, lunch, and dinner with broad price points, strong food and beverage mix, and a dedicated kids menu. → Full liquor license: Cocktail, wine, and beer program — a significant asset that meaningfully improves per-cover revenue and margin. → Multiple revenue streams: Dine-in, online ordering, private party bookings, catering, and live event ticketing all contribute to top-line revenue. → Prime Douglas County location: Situated in a vibrant downtown corridor drawing from one of Colorado's fastest-growing and highest-income counties. → Professional buildout complete: Stunning interior with full bar, patio seating, event-capable layout, and live entertainment infrastructure — no capital expenditure required at acquisition. → Growth potential: Currently closed for Mon–Tue dinner service, representing an immediate and low-cost revenue opportunity for a new owner-operator. → Turnkey operation: Experienced FOH and BOH staff, established vendor relationships, and complete systems including POS, online ordering, reservations, and catering platform. FINANCIAL SUMMARY This business opened June 1, 2025. The P&L for June through December 2025 reflects a strong operational foundation alongside typical first-year pre-opening and launch expenses. When normalized for one-time startup costs — including pre-opening payroll, initial buildout supplies, front-loaded marketing spend, and non-recurring financing costs — the business demonstrates solid underlying unit economics with a gross margin exceeding 71%. The seller projects $2.3 million in annualized revenue based on current run rates, with approximately 12.5% flowing to the bottom line as the business reaches full stabilization. Year-to-date 2026 financials are forthcoming and will provide a cleaner picture of normalized operations. Complete financial documentation, including a recast P&L, will be provided to qualified buyers followi

Market & Competition
This business operates in Douglas County, Colorado — one of the fastest-growing and most affluent counties in the United States, with a median household income consistently ranking among the top in Colorado. The area has experienced explosive residential growth over the past decade, bringing a well-educated, higher-income customer base that actively supports local dining. The restaurant occupies a distinctive positioning in the local market — upscale casual with a full bar, live entertainment, and an all-day menu — a segment that is meaningfully underserved in the immediate trade area. Most local competition falls into either fast casual or traditional family dining categories, leaving significant white space for an elevated experience at accessible price points. The concept competes broadly with chain restaurants along the I-25 corridor but differentiates strongly on food quality, atmosphere, and experience. The live entertainment program, private event capabilities, and catering serv
Growth Opportunities
This business is less than one year old and has already demonstrated exceptional revenue momentum. A new owner steps in with the hard work done — concept proven, staff trained, systems in place, and community awareness established — with several clear and actionable growth levers available from day one. Extend weekday dinner service. The restaurant currently closes at 2pm on Mondays and Tuesdays. Opening for dinner those two nights at existing staffing and food costs would represent nearly pure incremental revenue with minimal additional overhead. Expand the private events and catering business. The space and infrastructure for private events and catering are already in place. A focused sales effort targeting corporate clients, rehearsal dinners, birthday celebrations, and community organizations in Douglas County's affluent market could meaningfully grow this revenue stream.
