Littlefoot - Popular Bar & Live Music Venue

Littlefoot, located on Barkly Street in the heart of Footscray, was established in 2015 by its current owners with one simple goal: to create a vibrant, welcoming venue for the local community. They wanted somewhere they could enjoy great food, drinks, and music without having to travel far. The response from the community was so strong that they later purchased the building to secure the venue's future.

At the street frontage, there is footpath trading for up to sixteen patrons. Stepping inside, the venue opens to a main bar area, with assorted seating options and a DJ booth positioned by the entrance. A long bar stretches down the right-hand side of the space, guiding visitors toward a lounge area fitted with booth seating along one wall. Behind the scenes, a fully equipped commercial kitchen caters to the venue's menu, with the first set of restrooms located nearby. From the lounge, a covered corridor runs past the cool room, office, and a second set of restrooms, before leading into a brightly decorated courtyard, a favourite with regulars. Beyond the courtyard, a gate opens into an additional outdoor section in the main carpark, which can accommodate over 40 patrons and is always bustling on sunny days.

Littlefoot holds a Late Night On-Premises liquor licence until 3am with a capacity of 200 a rarity in the area and a major drawcard for its central location. Rent of $1586 a week including GST. A new lease of fifteen years 5+5+5 will be offered. All fixtures and fittings are included in the sale, with no equipment leases or supplier contracts in place, giving the new owner complete flexibility.

The venue has consistently strong performance. With its established reputation, loyal customer base, and a capable team ready to stay on, the transition for new ownership will be seamless. There remains potential to grow revenue streams and further improve profitability through tighter operational controls.

Note the purchase of the freehold is also an option. Littlefoot suits an owner operator that has worked in the hospitality industry and and can take this exclusively listed opportunity to the next level.
