The former Boston's & Grizzlies — already built, already beautiful.
Roughly 7,000 square feet in the heart of Danville's River District — the former Boston's Restaurant & Sports Bar, later Grizzlies. The bar, the commercial kitchen with the hood, the walk-in, the dining rooms, the stage and a private courtyard are all still here and still working. You're skipping the year-long, six-figure buildout that kills most restaurant concepts before they open.
If you're interested, I'd genuinely love to show it to you. Fill out the short form below, pick whatever time works best for you on the calendar, and I'll confirm it — usually the same day. That way I know to be there and you get the space to yourself for a while.
Tap any photo to enlarge. These are real photos of Unit 5 as it stands today — not renderings.
The expensive parts of a restaurant are the parts you can't see on a floor plan. In Unit 5, they're already installed, inspected and in place.
Full-length bar with back-bar and taps in the "Beer Den" room, plus a second service point.
Stainless line with six-burner range & oven, flat-top and a HoodMart exhaust hood — the single most expensive item in any buildout.
Walk-in cooler plus dedicated dry storage off the kitchen.
Table seating, leather lounge seating, high-tops and a fireside room under century-old brick.
A raised stage and flexible performance wall — set up for live music, DJs and private events.
Brick-walled patio under mature trees and café string lights, with a grill. A rare outdoor asset downtown.
Everything's on the table up front so nobody wastes a trip. If these numbers work for you, let's talk. If they don't, no hard feelings.
Takes about two minutes. Every time you see is live and open — the moment you request one it's held for you and disappears for everyone else. I'll confirm it with you the same day, and if I'm tied up at that hour I'll offer you the closest time that works.
Nothing invasive — just enough that I can have a useful conversation when you walk in the door.
Tours run about 45 minutes so you have time to actually look around and ask questions. Pick the time you'd like and I'll confirm it with you today.
Make sure this is right, then send it my way.
Your time is held while Kyle reviews it — nobody else can take it in the meantime.

Need to change or cancel? Just reply to the confirmation or email hello@sixeightyllc.com so I can free the slot for someone else.
Absolutely — I'd love to show it to you. Just grab whichever time slot works best for you on the calendar above and I'll make sure I'm there to meet you, unlock everything and answer whatever you want to ask. Mornings, afternoons, Saturdays — pick what fits your schedule. Booking a slot just means I know you're coming, so you get the full 45 minutes instead of catching me between stops.
The hood, the walk-in and the built-in line are part of the space. We'll go item by item on the smallwares and anything freestanding when you tour — it's an easy conversation, not a fight.
$6,000/mo is the number for a five-year term. For the right operator with a strong concept, I'm happy to talk through how the first few months are structured. Come walk it with me and let's have that conversation in person.
No. It's built for food service, but I've had good conversations about event venues, taprooms, retail and fitness. Some uses need approvals — bring me the concept and we'll figure out whether it clears.
River District Social — bowling, golf simulators, full bar and live music — anchors 680 Lynn and pulls a crowd seven days a week, right past your front door. The rest of the block is warehouse and flex space under the same ownership.
150+ shared spaces on the block, which is genuinely rare for a downtown River District location.
Yourself, anyone else involved in the decision, and your questions. If you already have a business plan, menu concept or funding letter, bring it — it moves things along, but it's not required to see the space.
