Trail's Cafe & Bar has been a fixture in Holton, Kansas since 1965 — one of the longest-running food and beverage operations in Jackson County. This offering includes two parcels: 601/603 Arizona Avenue, a 5,956 SF concrete block restaurant and bar building on 1.19 acres, and the adjoining Idaho Avenue parcel used for additional off-street parking. The property fronts Arizona Avenue — the US-75 corridor through Holton's western business district — providing excellent visibility and high daily traffic counts. The building was originally constructed in the 1960s and expanded in the 1990s, adding a dedicated bar area well-suited for private events and catering functions. The dining room features hardwood floors, booth and table seating, a salad bar setup, and outdoor patio seating, giving the operation flexibility for everyday service and special events. A dedicated retail display area with polished concrete floors, string lighting, and antique display fixtures provides an additional ancillary revenue component. A portable storage building and carport sales business occupies the north end of the parcel under a current lease arrangement, providing supplementary income. A fully stocked commercial kitchen with hoods covering the gas cooktops and fryer station is included in the sale, with capacity to easily serve both the restaurant and the bar and event space. A complete FF&E inventory will be made available to qualified buyers. A current liquor license is in place — type: Drinking Establishment/Caterer; buyers should contact the Kansas Department of Revenue Alcoholic Beverage Control regarding licensing requirements and transferability. The business is currently operating and available for owner-operator acquisition or conversion. Sale price of $800,000 covers both parcels, all improvements, and included equipment (FF&E).
