Brunch chain Famous Toastery to open first San Antonio location

Brunch and comfort-food chain Famous Toastery will make its Texas debut with the opening of a San Antonio location by the end of next year, officials with the North Carolina-based company said.

San Antonio entrepreneur Rachell Bonds, a Louisiana native and a 27-year Army veteran, will own the Alamo City’s forthcoming franchise unit. She hasn’t yet secured a location for the restaurant.

Famous Toastery currently has more than 25 locations in North and South Carolina and Virginia. The San Antonio store will be its first west of the Mississippi River, according to the company.

The chain specializes in creative spins on classic dishes ranging from omelettes and French toast to classic diner sandwiches and fresh salads. The restaurants also feature full bars with drink menus running the gamut from mimosas and bloody marys to a variety of margaritas.

“I am extremely excited to be part of the Famous Toastery family, where I can create a warm, comfortable dining experience,” Bonds said in a statement. “My childhood passion for food and cooking only grew stronger over the years, along with a desire to develop a welcoming space where families can come together over shared meals.”

Famous Toastery expanded rapidly this year by inking franchise deals to grow outside of its Charlotte-area headquarters, The company posted more than $32 million in sales in 2023, according to a recent Franchise Times ranking.

“We’re thrilled to bring Famous Toastery to Texas, marking a significant step in our journey to share our Famously Fresh brand nationwide,” company President Mike Sebazco said in a statement.
