Overview

Established Restaurant Business with Drive-Through

This is an opportunity to acquire Screamers, a long-established food and ice cream business in the Village of Shabbona. The property is located on Highway 30 and is the first thing you notice when you enter Shabbona from the east. The business has earned the love and support of the local community. The business also gets a significant increase in summertime sales from activity at Shabbona Lake State Park and other nearby campgrounds. There is indoor and outdoor dining with picnic tables. A drive-through window makes it the only establishment with a drive-through on Highway 30 for miles. The list price includes the business, real estate, and all of the FF&E. Building improvements include a newer roof and a newer 6-ton rooftop HVAC unit. There is also a 4-ton A/C unit on the ground. Inside, the tile in the dining room, hall, and bathroom have been updated. A new storage shed houses two freezers and one refrigerator unit with plenty of room left over for dry storage. Outside there are two refrigerator units and one dry storage unit for convenient off-hour vendor deliveries. FF&E includes tables and chairs, a Stoelting ice cream machine, sandwich bay, slushie machine, and a bread oven that is used to make the trademark fresh bread. The parking lot has been resurfaced and features 23 parking spaces with 6 for drive-through waiting. The current owner has elected to operate seasonally from mid-March through mid-November, which provides an opportunity to increase sales by being open year-round. The property size is 1040 square feet.
