Our Snooze story
At Snooze, we do breakfast, but different (and this can be updated with the new tag line once the brand work is complete). From Benedicts to Bloodys— and everything in between—we’re always looking to turn your morning upside down (in the best way possible). But our impact goes beyond the plate. With every meal we serve, we’re dedicated to bettering both our communities and our planet. Through Snooze Approved sourcing, we prioritize clean, responsibly sourced ingredients—including cage-free eggs, respect for animal welfare, and no added hormones or antibiotics. We’ve also given back over $1M to our local communities and remain committed to reducing waste through recycling and composting efforts in over half of our restaurants. Our commitment to making the world a brighter place extends to our people—our Snoozers! From the moment you step into our restaurants, we strive to create a safe, welcoming, and transformative workplace where you can bring your best self every day. We know that, just like pancakes, our people are better with passion, purpose, and pride. Will you join us?
