Roadside Diner on Cape Cod

A roadside diner in a historic Cape Cod town doing nearly $1M a year from dine-in, catering and private parties, with systems and staff in place.

Business Highlights

  • Creative comfort-food menu with homemade dishes and healthy options
  • Historic Cape Cod town with strong seasonal and year-round traffic
  • Turnkey operation with systems, staff and customers in place
  • Dine-in, catering and private events

Considerations / Questions to Ask

  • SDE is about 11% of revenue. Understand food and labour costs in detail.
  • Daily hands-on involvement is expected. This is an owner-operator job.
  • How seasonal is revenue on the Cape, and how is staffing handled in winter?
  • What are the lease terms and remaining length?
  • Cape Cod housing makes staff hard to find. How is the team housed and retained?

Opportunities

  • Summer tourism brings a new wave of customers every year
  • Catering and private parties grow without adding tables
  • Tighter cost control could lift the margin materially
  • A diner with a known name is hard to replicate in a historic town
