Overview

This for-lease restaurant space is located within the historic J.G. DePrez building at 18 Public Square in Shelbyville, Indiana. The offering is intended for restaurant use and will be provided under a modified gross lease structure. FF&E is not included, and lease rate, term, and square footage are negotiable depending on tenant use.

The space benefits from being positioned on the Public Square in the heart of downtown Shelbyville. In 2022, Shelbyville completed a renovation of the Public Square with new streetscape, lighting, and public areas, designed to make the area more walkable and pedestrian friendly. The building is also home to Blessing’s Opera House and an event center, with The Alley Tap sports bar noted as soon to be open.

For operators seeking a pedestrian-oriented restaurant setting, this location offers direct exposure to a core downtown gathering space where community events are held during warmer months. The co-tenancy with event and entertainment uses in the same building may support a restaurant concept that draws from ongoing activity in the Public Square.
