Here is a chance to own a business steeped in the history of Mendocino. Dick’s Place was originally established in 1934 and since that time was a family owned business until 1983. Counting the extended family that first opened the bar, only two other owners have taken over since Dick’s first opened. The location, in the heart of Main Street, has been a popular stopping point for locals and tourists alike, a place to seek refuge from the outside world and share a few stories with fellow patrons while soaking in the commanding views of Mendocino Bay. Stepping into this establishment is like taking a step backwards in time, a very big step. Photos and keepsakes of locals dating back generations adorn the walls and back bar, blending in with photos of some of the earliest pioneers to the area, including the lumberjacks and loggers who worked harvesting the Old Growth Redwood forests that used to dominate the landscape for miles around. This offering is for the entire property that runs from Main St. to Albion St. and encompasses the bar, and what originally was the cafe attached (now a popular retail store) and the newly renovated 1Bd, 1Ba two story home on Albion Street. This cozy home has Bay and Ocean views and is complete with all the modern finishes and conveniences one would be seeking in a quality residence. The historic business is included in this sale along with the liquor license and fixtures. To own and operate a business such as Dick’s Place has been an honor for the current owners but it is time for a new owner to carry on with the traditions. Come in and see for yourself, enjoy a locally crafted beer, glass of wine from nearby Anderson Valley, cocktail or even a mocktail. It might just give you some time to reflect and see where your dreams are leading you.
