Description

''Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got. Taking a break from all your worries sure would help a lot. Wouldn't you like to get away? Somteimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name, and their always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see our troubles are all the same. You wanna go where everybody knows your name.'' Penned in 1982 by Gary Portnoy and Judy Hart-Angelo as the theme song to ''Cheers,'' these instantly recognizable lyrics have resonated with people for decades. There's something about the comfort and familiarity of your local bar that can't be found anywhere else; that coveted ''third place'' where folks can escape the outside world just for a little while. 872 Providence Road has been that place for countless patrons over several decades and across several generations of NEPA socializers. As Silners for many years, and most recently Stalter's Cafe, friends could gather for occasions both special and ordinary and enjoy the comfort and familiarity for which it was known. Walking through the doors to the sound of the owner delightedly calling your name and having a fresh cold one waiting for you is a feeling you can't get just anywhere, and 872 Providence is looking for the next owner to carry on this long-held tradition. Ideally located, this property enjoys year round visibility and traffic, and had been known as a beloved gathering place for big Scranton events like the Scranton Half Marathon, Parade Day, high school football games and sporting events, and NFL Sundays. The sale includes a liquor license and the property is equipped with numerous TVs, a tip top tap system, newly refinished hardwood floors, and a spic and span kitchen. A second floor offers space for an office, or could be converted into an apartment without too much investment. There's even space in the third floor for living or storage, limited only by the owner's imagination. Make your appointment for a today!
