Broken Yolk Cafe

Fresh. Friendly. Family Owned. The Original Broken Yolk Cafe started in 1979 in Pacific Beach, a local beach community in San Diego, California. For years, wait lines ran out the door on weekends causing passers-by to stop in and give the restaurant a try. “Once they tried us, they were generally hooked. We’re known for high quality, homemade food and large portions,” says the brand owner.After a 2009 feature on The Travel Channel’s Man vs Food introduced the brand to millions of viewers outside of Southern California, calls came in from would-be investors, causing the owners to seek help with a franchise expansion model. Now the hometown favorite has grown to 34 locations with 15 of them just in San Diego County and the rest spread across the United States.Like any growing brand, we’ll continue to stay current with demographic trends, but our primary focus will always be on serving high quality food and giving each guest a great experience.
