Business description
Established Bagel Store – Queens County, NY (Confidential) Weekly Sales: $40,000–$45,000 Years Established: 23 Reason for Sale: Owner transitioning the business to the next generation Business Description A well-established, neighborhood anchor bagel café in Queens County is now available after 23 years of continuous operation. The current owner purchased the business 13 years ago through East Coast Business Brokers and is now ready to pass the operation on to a new owner. Located on a high-visibility block in a rapidly growing neighborhood with increasing residential development, the business benefits from strong morning commuter traffic, a dense daytime population, and steady weekend activity. The café offers a broad, profitable menu beyond traditional bagels, including breakfast sandwiches, deli salads, burgers, hot and cold sandwiches, spreads and smoked fish, coffee and espresso drinks, and desserts. Online ordering and delivery platforms are already in place, helping expand ticket volume and capture additional daypart revenue. Highlights • Strong weekly sales averaging $40,000–$45,000 with consistent breakfast and lunch traffic • 23 years in operation, including 13 years under current ownership • Full menu including bagels, breakfast items, deli offerings, sandwiches, burgers, spreads, smoked fish, coffee, and desserts • Online ordering and delivery already established • Located in a growing neighborhood with increasing residential density and foot traffic • Turnkey operation with trained staff and established workflows Operations The business operates as a high-volume counter-service café with strong breakfast throughput and a well-supported lunch daypart. The operation includes grill and deli stations allowing the menu to extend beyond traditional bagels into a full café-style offering. Growth Opportunities • Opportunity to reduce effective rent by subleasing a portion of the space after hours to an ice cream operator (potential $5,000 monthly offset) • Expand catering to nearby offices and residential buildings • Increase digital promotions, loyalty offers, and SMS marketing • Introduce seasonal menu items and specialty platters • Capture additional demand from continued residential development in the surrounding neighborhood Confidentiality This is a confidential listing.
