If you've been considering opening your own restaurant or expanding your operation to a new locale, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for. You may purchase the business operation and establish a lease with the seller, or you may purchase the business and real estate. (Because this is an operating business, showings are limited to Sunday evenings after the brunch hours, on Mondays, or before the lunch hour begins on all other days.) You do have the opportunity to purchase the business (without the Real Estate) and enter into a long term lease if you desire.
