Famous Toastery Sets Sights on โSan Antonio for First Texas Location
San Antonio, TX – Brunch enthusiasts in San Antonio will have a new optionโ in โข2026 with the arrival ofโ Famous โคToastery, a rapidly expanding Southern brunch chain. the restaurant will be located in The Shops at Babcock,โ at 15301 Babcock Rd., marking the franchise’s first foray into the Texas market.
Founded in Huntersville, North Carolina, โขby Brian Burchill and Robert Maynard, Famous Toastery initially announced its Texas expansion plans โขin November 2024. The San Antonio location will be owned and operated by local Army veteran Rachell Bonds, who โคexpressed โher excitement to โคbring a “warm, agreeable dining experience with high-quality, simple scratch โฃmeals with ‘Famously Fresh’ ingredients” to the city.
Famous Toastery joins a growing trend of brunch-focused restaurantsโ – including Snooze: An A.M. Eatery, Pรผr & Simple, and The Toasted Yolk Cafe – challenging the conventional all-day breakfast model of established chains like Denny’s and IHOP. The menu features a diverse range of โbrunch staples and Southern-inspired dishes, from hash and huevos rancheros to French toast stuffed with various fruit andโ creamโข cheese combinations.
A signature offering is theโฃ customizable “Blah Blah Blah” omelet, allowing diners to select โtheir preferred meats, vegetables,โ and cheeses. Southern specialties like biscuits and gravy, shrimp and grits, and mac ‘n’ โcheese (categorizedโข as a breakfast item) areโ also featured,โ alongside more traditional lunch fare like Reubens and grilled chicken wraps. The menu also includes salads, protein bowls, and a breakfast burrito.
Beyond food, Famous Toastery offers a selection of brunch-appropriate beverages, including mimosas, margaritas, โBloody โขMarys, Bellinis, and a “Rumosa,” asโ well as boozy coffee options.
while originally aiming for a late 2025 opening, the debut ofโ theโค San Antonio Famous Toastery is now anticipated in mid-2026, coinciding with the expected completion of tenant build-outs โฃat The Shops at Babcock in April or May 2026, accordingโ to Andrew Bagnall of Abiso Real Estate.
