EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Prime Downtown Chico Restaurant Property – 131 Broadway Street
Located in the heart of Downtown Chico between 1st and 2nd Streets, just a half block from California State University, Chico, this mid-size restaurant building offers a rare opportunity to own real estate in one of the most vibrant and high-traffic blocks in the city. Formerly home to Smokin’ Mo’s BBQ for over 20 years—and with a legacy of successful restaurant operations spanning decades—131 Broadway boasts both charm and proven performance.
The ±2,640 SF main level features a spacious dining area with tall ceilings, exposed original brick walls, rustic hardwood flooring, and abundant natural light from skylights. The open kitchen includes a 12-foot hood with Ansul fire suppression system, prep area, walk-up cashier’s counter, and self-serve beverage station. Guests can also enjoy the large rear patio—approximately 1,700 SF—with plenty of room to expand the outdoor dining experience.
The ±1,800 SF basement offers excellent utility and functionality with an employee locker area, office area, mechanical room, storage space, walk-in refrigerator, sidewalk hatch for deliveries and easy utility modification.
This is a great opportunity to purchase an affordable restaurant property in a downtown location that truly can’t be beat.
