JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Amidst rising popularity in Jacksonville, FL, Grumpy’s Restaurant, an award-winning full-service Americana breakfast, lunch and brunch diner, is looking to expand in Florida, specifically targeting Gainesville for its next location. With business thriving at their five Jacksonville area locations, Grumpy’s Restaurant is looking to continue their growth in the market, actively seeking franchise partners in Gainesville to bring their food and quality family atmosphere to the community.

The traditional full-service Americana breakfast diner has been successfully serving the Jacksonville community since 1999 and has been franchising since 2019. With popular locations in Orange Park, Middleburg, St. John’s, Neptune Beach and Wildlight (Yulee), the brand is now looking to expand into Gainesville. With strong one year population growth of 3.84% in 2021, Gainesville serves as a potential hotspot for a future Grumpy’s franchise location. In addition to the population growth, 45% of Gainesville diners eat out two or more times per week, making the city the perfect spot for a new restaurant. This expansion plan is also close to the heart for CEO and President, Daniel DeLeon who is a University of Florida Alumni and is excited to return to his college community.

“Gainesville’s energy is contagious, and we can’t wait to be a part of it,” said CEO and President Daniel DeLeon. “The city’s appreciation for delicious, made-from-scratch comfort food makes it the perfect fit for Grumpy’s. We’re eager to bring a new exciting dining experience to Gainesville.”

With five open locations in Jacksonville, Grumpy’s prides itself on made-to-order and always-made-from-scratch comfort food and sweet southern hospitality all at a working-class price. Grumpy’s serves breakfast, lunch and brunch along with an array of daily and weekly chalkboard specials which include a variety of waffles, pancakes, omelets, sandwiches, homemade soups, salads, signature coffee, freshly squeezed juices, homemade hot chocolate and desserts.
