Overview

Description

Riverside Cafe is rated the #1 restaurant in the Ellsworth area on Tripadvisor and is certainly a local favorite gathering spot. Very successful operation with kitchen, dining and bar area as well as multiple rentals on the property that help offset costs. Sitting at the Gateway to Downesat Maine and the Acadia Region the potential is unlimited and you even have your own parking lot in the back. Currently only operating for breakfast and lunch with excellent numbers so expanding the times and days would make an even stronger investment for an owner operator or investor, the current rents alone generate a 5-7% ROI and then you get a very successful restaurant business to generate even more on top of that. The owner is retiring after a successful 16 year run.
