Rise & Shine Christmas Dinner Back for 12th Year

Rise & Shine Hospitality Group, renowned for its playful breakfast puns, delectable pancake flights, unique scrambles, and mouthwatering breakfast cocktails, has a deeper mission beyond serving a delightful morning meal.

As the parent company of cherished establishments like Breakfast Republic, Breakfast Company, Eggies, Fig Tree Cafe, and Feast & Fareway, Rise & Shine Hospitality stands at the forefront of community engagement.

Rise & Shine Hospitality: Commitment to the Community

At the helm of this vibrant enterprise is Johan Engman, a dedicated family man and CEO of Rise & Shine Hospitality Group. Engman places a strong emphasis on giving back to the communities that have embraced their 27 restaurant concepts.

In the current year alone, Rise & Shine Hospitality Group has made charitable donations exceeding $25,000 through various restaurant fundraising initiatives. These initiatives include events like “Christmas in July,” exclusive “Pineapple Upside Down Pancake” specials, and the heartwarming “Vegan Lemon Strawberry French Toast” fundraiser.

Their benevolence has reached and touched numerous neighborhoods and foundations that have warmly welcomed Rise & Shine Hospitality into their midst, including Casa De Luz, Costa Mesa Little League, Surfrider Foundation, The Center of The Desert, The Long Beach Center, and The Magic Foundation.

12 Years of Rise & Shine Christmas Dinner & Counting

With just a couple of months left in the year, Breakfast Republic is preparing to unveil RSVPs for one of their most significant charitable events. Each Christmas Day, Rise & Shine Hospitality Group opens the doors of one of their establishments to extend a warm welcome to military-affiliated families for a memorable Christmas Dinner.
