Some restaurants have a rush hour. We have a whole day.

Morning coffee. Afternoon lunch. Business meetings. Happy hour. Dinner. Cocktails. Celebrations. A quick bite or a reason to stay awhile.

All day. Every occasion. That’s Bread & Vine.

Now franchising.

Take it slow.
On the go.
Steal the show.

That’s the Bread & Vine way of doing all day.

Morning pastries and coffee for the start of the day. Lunch and all-day dining for guests who want to stay awhile. To-go orders and catering that bring Bread & Vine beyond the four walls. And when evening rolls around, dinner, w**e and cocktails give guests another reason to come back.

One concept. Multiple ways to serve your community. One investment designed around the entire day.

Bread & Vine is now franchising.

Could your community be next?

Meet Elena Garcia.

Elena started at Bread & Vine as a member of our front-of-house staff and has grown with the company into her current role as Director of Operations for our franchise team and Manager of our Galena location.

In this conversation, she shares what makes Bread & Vine different from other hospitality brands and what she hopes potential franchisees walk away feeling after spending a Discovery Day with us in Galena.

Her perspective comes from experiencing Bread & Vine from the ground up, and that journey says a lot about the people and culture behind the brand.

Why does the founder personally lead Discovery Day?

Because choosing a franchise partner isn’t something Eric wants to hand off to a sales team.

Discovery Day is an opportunity for prospective franchisees to experience Bread & Vine from the inside out, ask the real questions, see the operation in action, and get to know the person behind the brand.

Eric has spent his career in hospitality. He knows what it takes to build, operate, adapt and grow a restaurant, and he wants to share that experience directly with the people considering building their future with Bread & Vine.

No handoff. No sales pitch. Just real experience, real conversations, and a firsthand look at what’s ahead.
