Snooze – Who Are We?

Morning people! Yes, we are those
people. We are a full-service breakfast restaurant, and we want each morning to
feel like your weekend and happy hour rolled into one — no matter which side of
noon it’s on. We’re the place where you can be you, and where our regulars are
anything but. Everyone’s welcome at our table because the same goes for our
people as it does for our dishes: the unexpected twists are what makes them so
special.
