45 JAMES Street Unit# 1

Turnkey restaurant opportunity in the heart of downtown St. Catharines: a fully equipped 900 sq. ft.

space with 35 seats and 73. 3 ft. of street frontage, delivered through a full ground-up build-out completed in 2025.

The interior features high-gloss red tile walls, exposed wood-stack accents, an open industrial ceiling with exposed ductwork, a built-in bar, a private speakeasy-style entrance, and a dual-fuel wood/natural gas oven with a full commercial kitchen line in practically new condition — bypassing the 12+ months of construction, permitting, and supply-chain delays a new build would require. Zoned C6-92 (Downtown Traditional Main Street), this is a business asset sale offered together with a lease assignment; lease details available upon request. The location sits a short walk from Brock University's downtown arts campus, the Marilyn I.

Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts, and fronts James Street, which the City has slated for pedestrian-priority upgrades. A rare chance to acquire high-end, move-in-ready restaurant infrastructure in a growing downtown core without the cost or timeline of building from scratch.
