This turn-key restaurant business, established in 1968, presents an opportunity to generate revenue from day one.

The well-refurbished and remodeled building features a commercially equipped and health-inspector-approved kitchen spanning 560 square feet, along with a 256-square-foot covered portico for ordering and dining. Additional outdoor dining is available with benches and tables in a shady, park-like area in the back.

Equipment lists and P&L sheets are available. The 1.25-acre lot offers the option to maintain the green space or develop it to suit various needs, including erecting greenhouses and gardens, or pasturing livestock. The Dairy Cup serves soft serve ice cream, shakes, beef burgers, tenderloins, chicken sandwiches, french fries, onion rings, and other specialty food items, with a full menu offering online ordering and curbside pick-up.
