POWELL, Ohio (WCMH) — Another Broken Egg Café, a brunch chain with a Southern-inspired menu, is planning another central Ohio restaurant inside a shuttered Panera Bread.
The Florida-based chain is launching the new location at 8823 Owenfield Drive near Lewis Center, taking over the building once home to a Panera that closed several years ago. The spot will mark the brand’s second central Ohio location after the first opened at Easton Town Center in 2022, also inside a former Panera.
Another Broken Egg boasts a series of brunch specialties, like cinnamon roll French toast, eggs benedict, biscuits and gravy, omelets, and buttermilk pancakes. A selection of sandwiches, salads, beverages like the salted caramel cold brew and a number of sides round out the menu.
The chain is expanding into Lewis Center as First Watch also opened a new restaurant in the area last month. The 4,600-square-foot location is the brand’s first new Central Ohio eatery since opening a Sawmill location along Dublin Center Drive in late 2022.
Other eateries opening in Lewis Center include a combo craft brewery and coffee shop that opened in May. The shop is home to a range of brews, a cocktail menu created in collaboration with Watershed Distillery, freshly roasted coffee from One Line Coffee and pastries from Der Dutchman.
A national cookie chain that unveils a lineup of new flavors every week and boasts an award-winning chocolate chip cookie has opened in Lewis Center earlier this simmer. The shop marks the brand’s first Ohio location and is joining dozens of storefronts nationwide, including in Nevada, Texas, Indiana, Florida, New Jersey and more.
A shop boasted as the state’s “biggest coffeehouse,” home to beans sourced from Yemen and a brew recipe dating back 500 years, opened in Lewis Center in March. The new location opened marks the brand’s second central Ohio shop after the first opened last year in Hilliard at 3221 Hilliard Rome Road.
A butcher shop home to an extensive collection of wine and beef produced from the owner’s personal ranch is now open in Lewis Center. Named Prime + Vine, the shop specializes in American Wagyu beef farmed from owner Jeff Gaylor’s cattle ranch in Knox County.
