Restaurants & food service financing

Restaurant financing covers the costs specific to food service: kitchen equipment, buildouts, inventory and payroll through seasonal swings. Credible Lending funds restaurants, cafés, bars, caterers and food trucks from $10,000 to $5 million, with same-day decisions and weekly payments sized to your sales.

What makes funding restaurant owners different?

Equipment fails on a Friday

A walk-in or a hood system can't wait six weeks for a bank. Same-day decisions mean the repair happens this week.

Seasons are real

December and February don't look alike. A line of credit smooths the slow months without a new application each time.

Margins are thin

We show the total cost of capital in dollars so you can check it against your margins before you sign.

Restaurants & food service financing questions

Something else on your mind? Ask an advisor.

Can a new restaurant qualify for financing?
Most of our programs look for at least one year in business and $10,000 or more in monthly revenue. If you're newer, apply anyway: your advisor will tell you what you can qualify for now and what changes at the one-year mark.
Can I finance used restaurant equipment?
Yes. Equipment financing covers new and used kitchen equipment from dealers or private sellers, subject to valuation.
