Cheesecake Factory expands brunch service

The Cheesecake Factory is broadening its brunch service, as the brand will now offer its Sunday brunch menu on Saturdays also.

Beginning on Oct. 7, the casual-dining chain will serve up such brunch offerings as Bruleed French Toast and a fried chicken and waffles Benedict throughout the weekend. The menu is now referred to as its weekend brunch.

“Our guests have enjoyed Sunday brunch at The Cheesecake Factory for nearly forty years, and we’re so pleased to begin serving brunch on Saturdays, too,” CEO David Overton said in a statement.

Its weekend brunch will be offered from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
