Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering includes both an operating restaurant and the underlying real estate. Chris’ Restaurant has served Lorain County families for more than 60 years, with the business originally established in 1964 and operating from its West Erie Avenue location since 1981. The property is approximately 4,000 square feet, providing a dedicated restaurant setting for an owner-operator or a buyer looking to continue established operations.

The restaurant is located at 2812 West Erie Ave in Lorain, Ohio. As described in the public remarks, the site benefits from longstanding community recognition associated with the business’s multi-decade presence at this address.

For buyers and investors, this is a turn-key concept in the sense that the opportunity is to purchase both the operating restaurant and the real estate together, rather than leasing a location. That combination can be especially appealing to an owner-operator seeking continuity with an established food-and-dining operation, or to a buyer who prefers to control the property while maintaining restaurant use. The current offering price is $375,000.

Key Highlights

  • Operating restaurant for acquisition plus the underlying property
