EggBred, a California-born fast-casual breakfast concept, is preparing to open its second North Carolina restaurant at 3052 Eastway Drive, Charlotte, with an early 2027 debut expected at Eastway Crossing. The 1,988-square-foot restaurant will mark the brand’s entry into Charlotte, following its first North Carolina location in Greenville, according to The Charlotte Observer and commercial real estate firm Collett.
The restaurant’s menu will center on breakfast and brunch favorites, including sandwiches, loaded burritos and waffles. Customers can also expect avocado toast, burgers, chicken sandwiches and mac and cheese, along with a dedicated children’s menu. Seasonal offerings highlighted in The Charlotte Observer’s report include pumpkin spice cold brew and Dutch apple cheesecake waffles.
EggBred’s approach focuses on freshly prepared food and house-made ingredients. The company’s website highlights freshly cracked eggs, house-made sauces, proprietary protein blends and cheddar biscuits. Its breakfast sandwiches also feature English muffins and milk buns sourced from local artisan bakeries.
Fabricio Botta, who confirmed to WhatNow Charlotte that he is the franchise owner of the upcoming restaurant, selected Eastway Crossing for the concept’s Charlotte debut. In an announcement from Collett, Botta said the area’s growth and energy made it a strong fit for EggBred. He also expressed enthusiasm about introducing the neighborhood to the brand’s breakfast and brunch offerings and becoming part of the Eastway community.
The restaurant will join an evolving tenant lineup at Eastway Crossing, located along Eastway Drive. Collett has also announced additions including Head Space Studio, East Side Yoga, The UPS Store and The Jade Rabbit barbering salon.
EggBred was established in 2020 by CEO Albert Shim, according to the company’s website. The brand has expanded through franchising, offering a fast-casual format serving breakfast and lunch. Its Charlotte restaurant is currently anticipated to open in early 2027, although an exact opening date has not been announced.
