Description

For more than 70 years, the Sportsmen's Café and Jerry's Bait Shop have been a community staple, serving as a gathering place for locals and travelers alike. Guests come for the food and stay for the atmosphere, homemade recipes, cold drinks and a familiar setting that feels like home. Located at the gateway to the lakes of the north, fishermen from across the state stop by for breakfast and last-minute purchases of tackle and bait at Jerry’s bait shop, just steps away. he "Sportsmen's Cafe Drive-In" sign s a masterpiece of retro Americana. The neon fish, bold lettering and heart-shaped backdrop give it great mid-century charm. It feels like a time capsule from the golden age of diners and drive-ins. And paired with "Jerry's Bait Shop" it becomes a slice of small-town Minnesota you don't see every day. Breakfast and Bait in one stop? The perfect combination for those early risers headed to the lake. Or maybe you are just drawn to its vintage vibe. What makes this opportunity even more valuable is the inclusion of the real estate. Buyers aren’t just purchasing the long-standing solid reputation of a community icon; they’re acquiring the land and buildings as well. That means long-term security, equity growth and the freedom to operate without the burden of rising rents or landlord restrictions. You will not just work; you will build a life. The property includes six parcels totaling about an acre and a half. There is plenty of parking and lots of seating in the cafe. Easy off-the highway exit and entry, despite busy northbound traffic on Friday and southbound on Sunday.
