Listing Description
$600,000 Build Out for $125,000
Rare opportunity to acquire a fully built, fully permitted, and fully licensed bar in a desirable Phoenix-area market.
This is not an empty shell or a startup requiring a costly buildout. The offering includes a complete operating bar, extensive furniture, fixtures and equipment, walk-in and reach-in refrigeration, beverage display capacity, point-of-sale equipment, audio-visual systems, indoor and outdoor seating, and a kitchen area supporting the current menu.
A transferable Maricopa County Series 7 Beer & Wine Bar liquor license is included in the asking price, subject to applicable approval. A new owner may also explore acquiring and transferring a Series 12 Restaurant or Series 6 Bar liquor license to significantly expand the alcohol program, add full spirits, and create a broader bar concept.
The business is offered as an asset sale for $125,000, plus inventory at cost. The identified value of the liquor license, equipment, fixtures, furniture, and leasehold improvements exceeds the asking price. The estimated cost to recreate a comparable licensed bar from an empty shell is more than $600,000.
Opportunity Highlights
Turnkey bar with operating infrastructure already in place
Maricopa County Series 7 liquor license included
Indoor and outdoor seating
Historically generated annual revenue exceeding $470,000
Gross margin improved to approximately 62.7% during the trailing period
No percentage rent
Contractual protection from certain competing beverage concepts
Two potential five-year renewal options, subject to lease review and confirmation
Opportunity to install a commercial hood and significantly expand the food menu
Opportunity to pursue a Series 12 or Series 6 liquor license and add full liquor offerings
Additional upside through stronger bar programming, events, entertainment, food expansion, off-premise sales, and refreshed marketing
The asking price is based on the tangible assets being transferred—not projected goodwill. This opportunity is well suited for an experienced bar operator, hospitality group, or entrepreneur seeking a licensed and equipped location at a fraction of replacement cost.
This business is currently operated as a franchise. Any buyer wishing to continue under the existing brand will be subject to franchisor approval and will be responsible for an estimated franchise transfer fee of approximately $10,000. Final approval requirements and transfer costs must be confirmed directly with the franchisor.
Proof of funds may be requested before the release of sensitive diligence materials. Please do not contact the business, employees, customers, landlord, or vendors directly.
All information to be verified by buyer during due diligence.
