About Us

Locally owned and operated since 1996.

Our Story

First Location

Started in Marietta

In 1996, Jay McCann and Chris Brogdon hatched a new idea for a different restaurant concept: a neighborhood daytime breakfast and lunch featuring traditional house-made favorites, healthy choices, and creative menu options in a comfortable, friendly atmosphere. This tall order was filled when the first J. Christopher’s restaurant opened in Marietta, GA in January 1997. J. Christopher’s has been expanding ever since, with 24 restaurants now in operation, satisfying millions of taste buds every day.

22 Locations

Currently J. Christopher’s operates restaurants throughout the greater Atlanta area, Macon and Savannah, as well as in Tennessee. We continually look for locations that will expand us into new neighborhoods throughout Atlanta and the southeast.

Familiar Food . . . With Flair

J. Christopher’s success is predicated upon a fabulous menu that features familiar food with flair. Our menu has broad appeal featuring categories such as omelettes, breakfast skillets, burgers, sandwiches and salads. Our menu features traditional house-made favorites like Blueberry Crunchcakes, Strawberry Waffles, Eggs Christopher, Club House Burger, and Classic Club Sandwich.

Seasonal Menu Items

We also feature seasonal menus during the year that highlight special menu items. For breakfast, these include the Farmer’s Omelet, Pumpkin Pancakes, and Gingerbread Waffles. For lunch, specialties include the Turkey Monte Cristo and French Dip sandwiches. Some of our specialty beverages during the years include Pumpkin Spice lattes and Egg Nog Cappuccinos.

Comfortable With Personality

Our new locations and newly-renovated restaurants feature a softer, more comfortable dining atmosphere along with selected new “green” technology and equipment that enables us to deliver our food in a more efficient and cost effective manner. Each J. Christopher’s restaurant has its own personality accented by local artwork and menu options.

Award Winning Restaurant

A neighborhood feeling, coupled with great food and service makes J. Christopher’s a chosen gathering place for those who live and work near its locations.

Thanks to our loyal customers, we’ve been honored with numerous “Best of” Awards in Atlanta throughout the years. Come check us out for yourself. We look forward to being in a neighborhood near you soon.
