Description

Step back in time with this charming small-town diner ready for its next chapter! Formerly home to a diner, deli, and ice cream shop, this property is packed with nostalgia and opportunity. All existing kitchen and restaurant equipment will stay, making this a truly turn-key business opportunity - including prep counters, fryers, ovens, tables and chairs, serving tables, office equipment, small appliances, dishes, and tons of storage space! With seating to accommodate up to 89 guests, this spacious setup is ideal for reopening as a diner, bakery, coffee or ice cream shop - or even a commissary catering kitchen to serve food trucks, off-site events, or a growing catering business. Located on historic Old Route 66, a main non-interstate route between Chicago and St. Louis, this property offers great visibility and a nostalgic stop for both locals and travelers alike. The building exudes small-town hospitality and charm, ready to welcome guests with that "everyone knows your name" feel. Everything you see in the photos conveys with the property, offering an incredible value at under $65,000 - your chance to bring your dream business to life!
