This Burbank Area bar and lounge can only be described
with superlatives. This venue represents the best of the
best in many ways as it is a quintessential dive bar that
not only has the ability to offer liquor, dancing,
entertainment, and parking, but it also boasts a full
kitchen, stellar reputation, loyal following and nearly a
half of century of goodwill! This bar, which was
established in the 1960’s, has seen few changes over the
years and exudes its original ambiance and authentic
character as a result. The sale includes all of the bars
furniture, fixtures, equipment (with minor exceptions),
leasehold, goodwill and Type 47 Liquor License. The
facility has a manager’s office and liquor room, a spacious
kitchen and two rest rooms.
This 2,000 square foot facility leases for $8,100 per
month including common area maintenance (CAM), plus a
small portion of percentage rent (approx. $500) on a leas
until November 2016 with one 5 year option. The facility’s
official occupancy is for 100 patrons.
This bar has amassed a loyal following of locals as well as
regulars from afar that frequent it for several different
reasons. As such, competition naturally exists from other
bars on different levels, however, no single venue can
come close to competing with this opportunity in terms of
its comprehensive day and evening bar, restaurant /
lounge and nightly entertainment offerings.
While this bar regularly posts over $800,000 in gross
revenues, multiple opportunities exist to increase
revenues, reduce costs and bolster the venue’s profits.
Though new owners may seek to initially renovate the
facility, larger gains may be realized by adjusting the bar
and dining menu’s as well as their prices, implementing a
door charge and enforcing drink minimums, reducing
promotion expenses, utilizing drink pour controls and
analyzing staff effectiveness.
