PROPERTY OVERVIEW Formerly Gecko’s Bar and Tapas, this standalone restaurant is conveniently located in the heart of the Northeast Heights along a high-traffic corridor. 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.
LOCATION OVERVIEW 5801 Academy Blvd NE is positioned along a high traffic corridor in Albuquerque’s Northeast Heights just east of San Mateo Blvd NE. This well established area features several of Albuquerque’s local food favorites, such as Trombino’s, Scarpas, Casa Taco, Sadies, and the new location for the famous Buffett’s Candies.
