Welcome to 400 Main Street, your once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Hattiesburg history—the iconic Coney Island Cafe building in vibrant downtown Hattiesburg. This former cafe is richly storied with the spirit of the City of Hattiesburg. For more than 100 years, Coney Island Cafe is where memories were served. Arthur Fokakis began his business as a fruit stand in 1923, and it quickly evolved into a lunch counter that has stood the test of time as an anchor business in the Hattiesburg community. And now, it can be yours. Let's talk location. It doesn't get much primer than this one on Main Street. Downtown Hattiesburg plays host to a full calendar of events—from Live at Five concerts to annual parades, theatrical performances at the Historic Saenger Theater, a weekly farmer's market, First Saturdays, holiday gifting, Victorian Candlelit Christmas, gallery openings, weddings, the Downtown Crawfish Music Festival and so much more. During HUBfest in the Spring, an event drawing crowds of 30,000, the festivities take place right outside your front door. With so many celebrated Historic Neighborhoods in reach of this address customers can arrive all manner of ways—bicycle, car (public parking directly across W. Railroad), by Amtrak on the Crescent Line that runs from New Orleans to New York, and of course on foot, with hundreds of downtown residents and employees seeking meals every day. Coney Island's story is a tale of hard work, mouth-watering plates, and service that remembers your usual order. That story can continue with you at the helm. Money can't recreate this vibe. It's not just a vintage diner in the center of town adorned with two beloved murals. It's a chance to stand on the shoulders of a trusted name in local cuisine. A promise that you get the privilege to deliver. And yes, the landline phone works. When you take your private tour, it just may ring with your first customer vying to place their order. Don't miss the call.
