Established Kailua Neighborhood Bar & Lounge — Turnkey, 40+ Years in Business

Hawaii, USA
Updated 1 day ago

Voted Best Bar in the 2026 Google reviews, this well-established neighborhood lounge has served the heart of Kailua for over four decades under its original owner, building a loyal following of regulars, tourists, and large groups alike. Known all over the world by reviews and with a strong military following, it draws a broad customer base spanning ages 21 to 83, all without any paid marketing. Word of mouth and reputation do the work, and the bar is busy seven days a week, with reported yearly sales of approximately $1,000,000. The turnkey sale includes liquor, equipment, artwork, all inventory and FF&E, a trained and loyal staff (six full-time bartenders, all planning to stay on), and long-standing vendor relationships with major Hawaiʻi beverage distributors. Leased dart boards and a juke box add approximately $40,000 in additional revenue per year. The current lease, one of the best rent and lease terms in Kailua, has 10+ years remaining plus a five-year renewal option, in a high-visibility, high-parking location. The current owner is the one who has grown the business to where it stands today, building a loyal following through sports viewing events, UFC watch parties, celebrations, and similar gatherings. Everything is in place for a new owner to step in and continue that legacy. Day-to-day operations run smoothly and are not solely dependent on the owner. The seller is looking for a buyer with prior bar experience. The owner, with 40+ years in the hospitality industry, is retiring; this is not a distressed sale. Clean compliance record, no liquor violations, consistent ID-check protocols. Cash buyers only, no financing. Serious inquiries only. Financial information, including cash flow and other sensitive operating details, is intentionally not disclosed in this public advertisement. The $0 cash flow shown in the listing field should not be interpreted as the business generating zero cash flow. More detailed financial and operational information will be made available to genuinely interested and qualified parties upon execution of the Seller’s Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Serious, qualified buyers: contact Xcllusive Business Brokers Hawaii to sign an NDA and receive the full Confidential Information Memorandum.
