This treat-focused quick-service restaurant is located on a high-traffic highway 2 hours from the Twin Cities, drawing a balanced mix of local and highway customers. The business operates from a stand-alone building with excellent visibility, ample parking, and a newly remodeled interior (2024).
With over $93K in cash flow and additional real estate income, this turnkey operation is supported by a seasoned team of nine employees, including a long-tenured manager who oversees daily operations.
