Restaurant Financing
Restaurants are a high-touch, high-turnover business, which makes lenders cautious and makes the right financing partner essential. At Commercial Capital Partners, we structure restaurant financing for purchases, build-outs, refinances, expansions, and equipment — for franchises and independents nationwide.
Whether you are buying a location, building out a new concept, or refinancing high-cost debt, we structure the transaction around your cash flow and goals.
Financing Options for Restaurants
SBA 7(a) Loans are the workhorse of restaurant financing, funding business acquisition, real estate, build-out, and working capital in a single loan.
SBA 504 Loans offer long-term, fixed-rate financing when the restaurant real estate is involved.
Equipment Financing funds kitchens, refrigeration, and FF&E, standalone or as part of a larger loan.
Business Acquisition Loans finance the purchase of an existing restaurant or franchise location.
Bridge & Working Capital provide short-term capital for build-out, expansion, and day-to-day operations.

What Lenders Focus On
Lenders look closely at cash flow, owner experience, franchise strength, and the lease. A restaurant turned down as too risky can be approved when the deal is structured around the operator’s experience and a realistic cash-flow story.
Refinancing Into Stronger Terms
We recently refinanced a Riverside restaurant from a seller-carry note into an SBA 7(a) loan at 90% LTV — a stronger long-term position with room to grow. The right structure turns a decline into an approval.

Headquartered in Rancho Cucamonga, we serve restaurant owners across the Inland Empire and Southern California, and we finance restaurants nationwide.
