The building’s positioning and monument signage provide incredible visibility and brand awareness. The Art Deco design and outdoor patio create a aesthetically pleasing and friendly experience for patrons and guests. This property is perfectly suited as a sports bar or family restaurant and due to its proximity to Casa Taco, the ownership prefers a concept that does not primarily serve Mexican food. The kitchen features double walkin coolers with one cooler being positioned adjacent to the existing twenty beer taps, providing efficient storage of your beer kegs. The kitchen also includes a vent hood with fire suppression system but a commercial over, fryers, and dishwasher are not included.
