Description
The Wild Hare Cafe & Little Foxes Gift Shop has been the favorite of locals as well as Route 66 adventurers for over 20 years. Located in historic Elkhart Illinois just seconds from Route 66. Currently open for lunch Thursday-Sunday. There are 2 well maintained buildings. The 102 building has a recent EPDM ($$) rubber roof replacement and houses the cafe seating (68)/kitchen and part of the retail...the 100 building is protected by an older Conklin roof coating and houses more retail plus a walk-up loft apartment that the owners occupy. The building's interiors are connected. The owners are ready to retire so they plan to leave inventory, fixtures and furniture. The business only serves 4 meals a week so it could easily be expanded. Route 66 travelers are already stopping to visit and sign the guest book, and it is the 100-year anniversary of the Mother Road in 2026. Please take a Saturday and come enjoy the Cafe and the shops in Downtown Elkhart.....then start asking questions and making plans to make this property and business your own! Live up stairs and serve your guests down stairs....what could be better.
