About the Business
Own One of Sawtell’s Favourite Local Hangouts – Licensed Bar & Eatery, Mid North Coast NSW
Morty’s Joint sits on Sawtell’s iconic fig tree-lined main street, just 10 minutes south of Coffs Harbour. It has large street-facing windows, footpath seating and steady foot traffic from beachgoers, families, holiday-makers and locals.
This much-loved, fully licensed bar and eatery serves signature fried chicken and burgers alongside craft beers, small-producer wines and house cocktails. It was featured in the 2025 and 2026 SMH Good Food Guide. Inside, wooden floors, leather booths, tiled walls, exposed brick, curated artwork and fairy lights give it relaxed charm with a touch of dive-bar soul. A full-size pool table at the front, with free games, keeps groups lingering and ordering another round.
The lifestyle opportunity: The venue currently trades Wednesday to Saturday evenings and has still grown consistently. That makes it a rare chance to own a profitable, well-regarded venue and still have your days free. Run it as the four-night operation it is today, or take it to the next level and trade all week.
