Rochester’s Max Restaurants Auction Off 25 Years of Excess Inventory

Rochester, NY — April 2026

After more than two decades of serving the Rochester community, Max of Eastman Place and Max Chophouse are opening their doors in a new way, through a rare public surplus liquidation event featuring an extensive collection of restaurant equipment, china, glassware, and smallwares accumulated over 25 years.

This is not a closing sale. Both restaurants remain open and active. The liquidation is part of a strategic effort to reduce excess storage and modernize operations following recent updates and evolving service models and will be available through a nationwide online auction hosted by RestaurantEquipment.Bid, the largest online marketplace for pre-owned restaurant equipment.

“This is exactly the kind of opportunity buyers look for—high-quality restaurant assets with a long history of professional use, all coming from a respected, still-operating brand,” said a representative from TAGeX Brands, the parent company of RestaurantEquipment.Bid. “Events like this allow businesses to unlock value from surplus inventory while giving operators, chefs, and the public access to premium items at a fraction of the cost.”

Auction Details

  • Auction Open: The auction opened for bidding on Monday, April 20, 2026
  • Auction Close: Items will begin closing on a rolling basis on Friday, May 01, 2026.
