SBA Prequalified – Streamlined financing for qualified buyers.
Multi-stream revenue model – In-store dining, specialty coffee sales, live event ticket revenue, private event hosting, and catering.
Separate drive-thru & catering hub – A detached building included in the available real estate, currently operating as a drive-thru and commissary. Provides immediate expansion capacity for strategic advertising and catering growth.
Proximity to premier golf courses – Unlocks additional catering and corporate event contracts; business is easily scalable.
Real estate value-add – The main historic building includes a second story with approved architectural blueprints (provided by seller) for conversion into short- or long-term rentals (apartments or Airbnb units). This can generate substantial passive income.
On-site tenant – The building currently has one tenant, contributing to cash flow.
Financial & Operational Overview
Proven growth trajectory and continuous menu/experience innovation.
Award-winning food and beverage program.

Development Potential

Investment highlights
- This business stands out with its unparalleled variety and atmosphere, offering signature coffee drinks, desserts, sandwiches, soups and catering events with weddings, special occasions, etc. No local competitor can match.
- The drive-thru has been utilized as a supply hub for the coffee shop and catering. All equipment is included to grow the retail drive-thru. Business is a University of Tennessee Preferred Vendor.
- Nestled in the rapidly developing Cumberland Plateau region of Tennessee, this area is drawing younger professionals and is conveniently located west of Knoxville and north of Chattanooga.
- Seller is offering two buildings: one large one which houses the business and one tenant and the drive-thru located directly behind the restaurant.
- Currently the restaurant is closed on Sundays; however, by introducing a Sunday brunch menu, profits can be increased. For example, Saturday breakfasts typically generate $900 within the first hour from 8AM to 9AM, a model that can be easily replicated to attract the “after church” crowd.
