A well-established pizzeria and hot-food kitchen on a busy commercial corridor in Hudson County, New Jersey: slices, pies and a full hot-food menu with counter service, delivery and online ordering. Ten-year lease plus a ten-year option, at asking $250,000.

Listing Snapshot
From the seller’s filed 2025 federal return. The return shows rent of $79,181, but the lease is $4,900 a month ($58,800 a year); the $20,381 difference was twelve payments on the note from the owners’ 2024 purchase of the business, recorded inside the rent line. That is debt service, not an operating cost, and the note is satisfied at closing, so the SDE figure adds it back.
What You’re Buying
The Opportunity
A buyer can verify the revenue line in an afternoon instead of taking anyone’s word for it, and a hands-on owner-operator has a clear path to earn more from the same sales.
Purchasing discipline, portion control and current menu pricing are the first levers. Beyond margin: catering and large-order business, lunch specials for the daytime office population, moving third-party app orders onto the shop’s own online ordering page to keep the commission, and extended hours. 2026 register sales are already running about six percent ahead of 2025 without any of it.
A lease of this length satisfies an SBA lender’s term requirement with room to spare, which is unusual for a shop in this price range and a real advantage at resale. Under current ownership since 2024; the premises operated as a pizzeria under prior ownership before that.
The owners will provide a transition period to a qualified buyer, with length and terms agreed in the purchase agreement. Recipes, vendor relationships, the online ordering account and the register system transfer with the business. For context on pricing, see our NJ pizzeria valuation guide.
