Do not miss this rare opportunity to own Ernie & Annie’s, an original 1913 neighborhood tavern offering historic character, an established customer base, and proven revenue. Even boxing legend Evander Holyfield is known to visit frequently.  Conveniently located approximately one-half mile from The District and within walking distance of Granite City’s Civic Park, Ernie & Annie’s is ideally positioned to benefit from the area’s summer concerts, movies, community events, and American Steel employees.  Patrons can enjoy the tavern’s nostalgic tacos, a cold beer, or their favorite drink before heading to the park or crossing the river for a Cardinals, Blues, or St. Louis CITY SC game.  This longtime local gathering place offers an appealing combination of tradition, atmosphere, food, entertainment, and income-producing potential. The property includes multiple buildings and rental opportunities:  • The tavern parcel also includes a tenant occupied two-bedroom, one-bathroom rental home with a carport. • The second parcel features a full-brick building currently operating as a gaming facility with a bar; • An attached studio apartment is occupied by a tenant of more than 30 years. Both commercial buildings offer excellent potential for private parties, receptions, celebrations, and other special events. The experienced staff takes pride in the business and hopes to continue serving the community under new ownership.  With multiple revenue streams, established operations, residential rental income, and room for future growth, this unique property presents an outstanding opportunity for an investor, entrepreneur, or hospitality operator.
