The owners of Mickey D’s in New Waterford, Cape Breton are retiring and have placed their restaurant on the market.
“It’s a tradition in New Waterford. It’s really the last longstanding family restaurant in our town,” said Darren O’Quinn, Municipal Councilor to CBC Nova Scotia in March.
The business and its keys are for sale on Cape Breton buy and sell groups on Facebook. The restaurant is listed at $450,000 or best offer and includes all stock and equipment.
Mickey D’s has been a family business institution in New Waterford since the 1970’s. Jen Mossop and her husband have owned Mickey D’s since 2010, but she has worked there since 2000.
“As much as I love Mickey D’s, I want to be able to walk out of here when I go.” Mossop told CBC Nova Scotia.
The restaurant will remain open until new owners are found.
