Vernon Boulevard wine bar is for sale

Gizi

Sept. 6, 2016 Staff Report

A Vernon Boulevard wine bar is for sale, less than a year of being in business.

Gizi, located at 47-34 Vernon Boulevard, is on the market, although there are few details as to how much the owner seeks.

An ad for the business was posted on Craigslist five days ago.

The bar offers an eclectic wine list and imported beers. The venue opened late last year offering small plates, shared dishes and home-made deserts.

The venue is being advertised as having 900 square feet of ground floor space, plus 900 square foot basement/office and a 600 square foot garden in the back.

why does everyone use Space Finders. those guys are a joke.
notorious in Astoria for renting spaces tenants aren’t qualified for and then selling their lease when they have to leave.

Gizi had amazing coffee. never had any food here and i don’t drink booze, but the space was nicely done. they did nothing to try and bring you in off the street though.

Good riddance. I went in there looking for some of my favorite, blue-collar wine (Franzia) only to find they only sold bourgeois wine for the 1% that didn’t even come in a box! Who’s ever heard of “bordeaux” before?! Hopefully the new Chipotle will have a decent wine selection.
