Subs & Grub Deli and Sandwich Shop in Cypress
Investment Summary
AvailableOffered At: $49,000
(Asset Sale)
Subs & Grub is a fully operational deli and sandwich shop on Cerritos Avenue in Cypress, offered as an asset sale at $49,000. The next operator steps into a complete commercial equipment package, an established Boar’s Head account, a finished dining room, and a Toast platform already running the register, reporting, and payroll. Subs & Grub has been serving the community since the 1970s, and the current build is clean, current, and ready to open without a rehab budget.
Turnkey build with the full equipment package
Everything needed to run service on day one conveys with the sale. The cook line carries a health-department-approved Equipex hood and grill, a Vollrath commercial toaster, and stainless prep surfaces running the length of the working side.
Refrigeration runs deeper than most shops of this footprint carry, and the package includes a Beverage-Air refrigerator, a True reach-in refrigerator, a True glass-door beverage cooler for front-of-house merchandising, and a six-drawer deli prep refrigerator built into the service counter with bread storage below. A commercial meat slicer supports in-house portioning rather than reliance on pre-cut product.
Front of house is custom built out with a full deli counter, sneeze guard, chip racks, and a grab-and-go merchandiser. The dining room is finished with plank flooring, cafe seating, lounge chairs, wall art, and neon signage, giving the room a current, well-kept feel that supports a full dine-in daypart.
Vendor relationships already in place
The business runs on a Boar’s Head deli program, which is the recognizable premium tier in the category and the one most sandwich buyers ask about first. A local bread provider supplies the roll program daily on a standing order, which keeps the core product consistent across the menu.
Both accounts are established and operating, which removes two of the slower parts of opening a deli for an incoming operator. Those are qualifying for a premium meat program and locking in a reliable bread source at workable volume and delivery timing.
Technology and reporting on day one
Operations run entirely on Toast, covering point of sale, sales reporting, and payroll. Online ordering and third-party delivery are already live through the platform, and the business maintains its own ordering site at subsandgrub.com alongside a catering channel.
A buyer inherits transaction history, item-level sales data, and a payroll system that is already configured to the business. That shortens diligence considerably and gives a new owner real numbers to work from in the first week rather than a paper trail to reconstruct.
Location and format
The shop occupies an inline suite in a Cerritos Avenue retail center with shared surface parking directly in front of the storefront and neighboring service tenants drawing their own regular traffic. The format is counter service with a seated dining room, which keeps labor structured around a small team and the cost line predictable.
The layout supports the full range of a modern deli program, including dine-in, takeout, delivery, and catering orders staged from the same counter. Catering is already marketed on the business site and is the clearest volume lever available to an operator willing to work the surrounding office and light industrial base.
Ideal buyer profile
The price point and asset structure suit a hands-on owner-operator looking for an affordable entry into an established format without a buildout timeline or a construction loan. It also fits an existing restaurant brand adding a footprint in north Orange County, where the equipment package, vendor accounts, and Toast configuration transfer as a working unit and a proven concept can be layered on top.
First-time buyers should note that the equipment alone represents a meaningful share of the asking price, which changes the risk profile compared with buying goodwill. Financial detail is available upon request with a signed NDA.
