For more than 55 years, Dick's Place has been the heart of Lawrence, Nebraska. Established in 1971, this iconic small-town business has served generations of families as a bar, restaurant, grocery store, and community gathering place. More than just a business, Dick's Place has become woven into the fabric of the community—where friends meet for coffee in the morning, families gather for meals, local organizations hold meetings, and neighbors come together to celebrate life's milestones. Community members and local media have consistently described Dick's Place as the "heartbeat" and gathering place of Lawrence, highlighting its importance to the town's way of life. Over the years, Dick and Marge Kohmetscher transformed a neighborhood tavern into a thriving multi-faceted business that provides dining, entertainment, and essential grocery services to Lawrence and the surrounding area. Their commitment to customer service, community involvement, and small-town values has created a loyal customer base that spans multiple generations. Today, Dick's Place stands as a rare opportunity to acquire an established, turnkey business with a long history of success and deep community roots. The property includes a well-known bar and grill, grocery operation, furnishings, fixtures, restaurant equipment, and inventory, offering a new owner the chance to continue a respected legacy while building upon a strong foundation for future growth. Whether your vision is to continue the tradition that has made Dick's Place a destination for more than five decades or to expand upon its already successful operation, opportunities like this rarely come available in Nebraska's small-town communities.
