Huddle House

We're always proud to see the Huddle House name celebrated for what we've built over the decades, which is great comfort food, genuine hospitality, and a sense of community that feels like home. A big thank you to Chowhound for shining a spotlight on our story in their recent piece. From our roots in Decatur, Georgia, back in 1964 to more than 250 restaurants across the country today, we continue to serve up hearty breakfasts, warm smiles, and that classic diner comfort our guests know and love.

We're proud to be recognized by Food & Wine Magazine as one of America's Go-To Diner Chains! At Huddle House, it's always been about comfort, community, and a good meal made with care, and it's an honor to see that connection recognized. A huge thank-you to our franchisees and team members who make every guest feel at home in each of our restaurants every day. https://lnkd.in/eAFYXkbH #HuddleHouse #FranchiseGrowth

This Veterans Day, we're honored to serve those who've served our country. Tomorrow, on Veterans Day, all active-duty and retired military members can enjoy a FREE MVP Breakfast Platter at participating Huddle House locations. As a brand rooted in community and connection, it's our small way of saying thank you to the heroes who make this country what it is. #HuddleHouse #VeteransDay

At this year's Franchise Leadership & Development Conference, our very own Peter Ortiz and Michael Ackley joined industry peers to talk growth strategies, innovation, and what's next for franchising. A huge thank-you to everyone who joined the sessions. We're grateful to be part of the dialogue shaping the future of our industry. #HuddleHouse #FLDC2025 #FranchiseGrowth

Just weeks after launching our new Huddle House Rewards program, we put it to the test, where we turned National Cheeseburger Day into National Cheeseburger Weeks, and the results were gouda. (We know, the cheesy pun was intentional). Guests who joined our Huddle Rewards unlocked a free Huddle Smashed Burger, introducing thousands to one of our newest menu innovations. The campaign delivered a 15% lift in signups vs. the prior period, accounted for nearly one-quarter of all new enrollments since launching with Thanx at the end of August, and drove a 12% increase in in-restaurant loyalty purchases. This activation shows how a strong loyalty platform, brand messaging, and craveable menu innovation can work together to create value for our guests, our franchisees, and our brand. Join our rewards program to be in the loop on what's ahead! #LoyaltyProgram #MenuInnovation #FranchiseGrowth

Recognition matters most when it reflects the hard work behind it. That's why we're honored to be once again included in the Franchise Times Top 400 list.   This milestone is the result of a systemwide rebrand, smarter support for franchisees, and a menu that's resonating with today's guests. We're building momentum that sets us apart in the family dining space. https://lnkd.in/gfjAQeTB   #HuddleHouse #FranchiseTimesTop400 #FranchiseGrowth

We've partnered with Thanx to launch the new Huddle House Loyalty Program, which is part of our strategy to drive growth, deepen guest engagement, and modernize how we connect with our communities. This program is designed to modernize the guest experience while creating long-term value for our franchise system. By increasing frequency, growing check averages, and strengthening brand affinity through meaningful, data-driven interactions, we're building the next chapter of guest loyalty.

New look. New formats. Same heart. At Huddle House, we've been serving up small-town warmth for decades, but now we're doing it in bold new ways.

Franchisees are taking notice and reinvesting at record pace. Catch the full story behind our evolution: https://lnkd.in/eCbwfbn8 #ExpressModel #HuddleHouse #FranchiseOpportunity

Family dining is proving it has a strong future. At the FSR's NextGen Restaurant Summit, our CEO, James O'Reilly, shared his perspective in a fireside chat with Callie Evergreen about "The Family Dining Revival". James walked through how Ascent Hospitality Management is driving performance for Huddle House through value-driven menus, streamlined operations, refreshed branding, and franchise expansion, all backed by culture, technology, and guest-first strategies. Big thanks to Callie and the NextGen team for hosting the conversation, and to everyone who joined. #HuddleHouse #Leadership #FamilyDining #NextGenRestaurantSummit
