Coffee roasters / cafes.

The past 3 years of taxes can be made available to my wife.The bar has a supper club with it, which is not being used to potential, example: brand new chicken roaster sitting!

Next wave will be young families who were in the multis and love walking to west end coffee roasters and the ball park but are starting a family and want a yard, dog, and grill. 

I love to garden (flowers and vegetables) and raising my own eggs and roasters sounded like a logical extension.

Where does he want to run the coffee roaster?

Lifeafar Investments has made some large coffee farm acquisitions and has been seeing 14-28% returns largely because you can cut out so many of the traditional middlemen in the industry and sell directly to roasters at specialty coffee prices.

mom and pop coffee shops / roasters don't scale well as business - that's why you don't see anything between 1 or 2 stores and starbucks / peets even in CA. you need to find an entrepreneur passionate about starting a roasting company, rather than finding an existing roasting entrepreneur and try convincing them to open a new branchwine bar / beer bar are easier, but depend on immediate demographics in the area and trends

That firm did the new starbucks in Seattle that has the roasters on display and such.There is a local BP meetup this Thursday in Kirkland, may be a good event for you to attend and meet other in the area.

Another nondescript commercial strip nearby has a coffee roaster & that's proved very popular so a bake shop next door was a natural addition.
