Egg Harbor Cafe brings nearly four decades of breakfast expertise to Highlands Ranch at 9579 S University Blvd. This family-owned Chicago institution, founded in 1985, has grown to 27 locations across the Midwest and is now expanding to Colorado—making this one of the first Egg Harbor Cafes in the Denver metro area.

The Egg Harbor Experience: Known for "fast, friendly service in a modern farmhouse setting," Egg Harbor serves breakfast, brunch, and lunch daily from 7 AM to 2 PM. The menu focuses on made-from-scratch classics with high-quality ingredients—think fluffy pancakes, creative benedicts, hearty skillets, and fresh-squeezed juices.

Menu Highlights: The Traditional Breakfast features eggs any style with Harbor potatoes fried in 100% beef tallow (a signature touch), a buttered English muffin with house jam, and your choice of protein. Omelettes, pancakes, and Belgian waffles round out the classics. The cafe also offers lighter options and lunch items.

Family-Owned Legacy: What started as a single neighborhood cafe in 1985 has remained family-owned and operated for nearly 40 years. That commitment to quality and genuine hospitality is what sets Egg Harbor apart from chain breakfast spots.

The Space: Expect a bright, welcoming atmosphere with farmhouse-inspired design. Counter service keeps things moving quickly, making it ideal for both leisurely brunches and grab-and-go weekday breakfasts.

Opening: Hatching early 2026 at the Highlands Ranch location on S University Blvd.
