Original Breakfast House

Prior to opening Original Breakfast House, owner John Stidham operated almost a dozen restaurants in Northern California. Retiring to Phoenix in 2011, he soon discovered that he missed his life's work so he hunted out a closed up restaurant in front of a newly rejuvenated shopping center in Northeast Phoenix, THE ROCK at 32nd Street.

After negotiating a lease with the partnership of Genesis Church and Alice Cooper's Hard Rock Teen Center, the remodeling began. What he ended up with is a modern/70's motif, hip breakfast joint that serves up intense flavors in the form of unique twists on American comfort food.

The restaurant is designed to sparkle and scream WOW. From the Joel Hotchkiss 5 foot mobile hanging over the host stand to the retro wallpaper and decor to the "Breakfast Posters" in the ladies room, you will notice the details that enhance the overall experience.

Extreme care was taken in designing a menu with local, fresh and organic ingredients. Fresh oranges are constantly being squeezed with a second glass of orange juice being given free of charge. Cage free eggs along with organic milk are big bonuses. The 100% Costa Rican More than fair trade coffee is roasted in Tempe by Ron Cortez. Breads are baked at Arizona Baking and strawberry jam is made at Margie's Kitchen in Tuscon. Even the burgers at lunch come up SPECIAL...100% black angus patties on a brioche bun with chipotle mayonaise for a shockingly low price.

Although the restaurant sits in front of a shopping center, the flower and herb gardens surrounding the restaurant, along with the upbeat decor and atmosphere should transform your day to a very pleasant and happy place.
