Laconia, NH
A rare opportunity to acquire and reimagine one of Lake Winnipesaukee’s most recognizable hospitality concepts. Since opening in 2018, The Dive became a true Lakes Region destination—a one-of-a-kind floating restaurant and bar known for cold drinks, casual food, live entertainment and its unmistakable Key West atmosphere. More than a restaurant, The Dive became a summer tradition with an exceptionally loyal following among Lake Winnipesaukee boaters, residents and visitors. Following a devastating fire in July 2026, the owners have elected not to rebuild and are now offering an opportunity for a new owner or operator to carry the concept forward in a new form. The available opportunity may include, together or in separate components: The commercial barge/hull and remaining propulsion equipment; The recognizable The Dive name and brand; Established social-media accounts with a combined following exceeding 20,000; Website and related digital assets; Brand goodwill, historical content and substantial community recognition; and The opportunity to rebuild, reposition or repurpose the concept. Certain structural and operational features associated with The Dive are protected by issued U.S. Patent No. 11,628,913, titled “Entertainment Barge.” All patent, trademark, brand and other intellectual-property rights are expressly reserved unless transferred through an authorized transaction with the sellers. Public interest surrounding The Dive remains extraordinary. Recent social-media activity concerning the fire and the future of the concept generated significant attention, including approximately one million views and an immediate outpouring of interest from potential buyers, operators and supporters. This is not the sale of a currently operating restaurant. It is an opportunity to acquire some or all of the physical and intangible components behind a proven destination brand—and potentially relaunch it with an established audience already waiting to see what comes next. Possible uses could include a rebuilt floating restaurant and bar, private-event venue, excursion or entertainment concept, branded shoreside location, licensing opportunity, or another marine or hospitality use, subject to all required inspections, licensing, permitting and regulatory approvals. SALE PROCESS To ensure that all interested parties receive consistent information and an equal opportunity to evaluate this unique offering, the transaction will be conducted through a structured sale process. Interested parties should submit an inquiry through this listing. Each prospective buyer will be asked to complete a Confidentiality Agreement and Buyer Profile before receiving additional information. A comprehensive information package, including available historical financial information and additional details concerning the brand, digital assets, commercial barge and remaining equipment, is currently being assembled. Qualified prospective buyers will receive the package when it becomes available, together with instructions regarding the submission of preliminary proposals. The sellers anticipate establishing a proposal deadline after qualified prospective buyers have had a reasonable opportunity to review the available information. The opportunity is not being offered on a first-come, first-served basis. The sellers are open to proposals involving the complete opportunity or individual components. Proposals will be evaluated based upon overall value, transaction structure, buyer qualifications, intended use and the buyer’s ability to complete the transaction. Interested parties should complete the inquiry form associated with this listing. All inquiries will be handled exclusively through Sunbelt Business Brokers of New Hampshire.

Naugatuck, CT
Step into the legacy of Riddles Pub, a cornerstone of Naugatuck's social fabric that has been bringing neighbors together for over four decades. What began as a neighborhood gathering place in the 1970s has evolved into a beloved community institution, weathering decades of change while maintaining its authentic charm and welcoming atmosphere. In 2013, Andrew Riddle recognized the pub's potential and took ownership, continuing a tradition that had already spanned more than 30 years. Under his stewardship, Riddles Pub flourished as the heartbeat of local recreation, hosting spirited pool and dart leagues that created lasting friendships and fierce but friendly rivalries. The sound of clinking glasses, the crack of pool balls, and the cheers from dart tournaments became the soundtrack of countless evenings. The pub's thoughtfully designed layout tells the story of a space built for community connection. Two professional pool tables anchor the main area, while dual dart boards provide additional entertainment. A dedicated stage awaits performers, and the open dance floor space has hosted celebrations ranging from birthday parties to impromptu celebrations of local sports victories. Three well-appointed bathrooms, a private office, and a secure beer closet demonstrate the operational excellence that has sustained this establishment through the decades. The sale includes essential equipment that represents years of careful investment: large and small commercial beer refrigeration units, a reliable ice machine, Nike box system, and ATM services that enhance customer convenience. These assets, combined with the pub's established reputation, create an immediate operational advantage for the next owner. Perhaps most significantly, the current landlord recognizes the value this establishment brings to the community and stands ready to offer a long-term lease to ensure continuity. This commitment reflects the deep roots Riddles Pub has established in Naugatuck's social landscape. Now, this storied establishment awaits its next chapter. The absence of a kitchen presents an exciting opportunity for expansion, allowing the new owner to potentially add food service and capture additional revenue streams. The existing infrastructure, loyal customer base, and prime community position provide the perfect foundation for someone with vision and passion for hospitality. This is more than an asset acquisition - it's an invitation to become the steward of a community treasure, to write the next chapter in a story that has been unfolding for nearly half a century. For an entrepreneur who understands that the best businesses are built on relationships and community connection, Riddles Pub represents a rare opportunity to step into an established legacy while creating their own mark on Naugatuck's social history.
