All-American Chain Becomes First Branded Fast Casual Restaurant to Add Eggo® Waffles to Menu

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 22, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Johnny Rockets, the timeless, all-American burger brand, is saying goodbye to its famous bun for a sweet, new menu item in collaboration with Eggo® Waffles. Fans can now indulge in the all-new Chicken & Waffle Sandwich, featuring warm and toasty Eggo® Waffles as the sandwich bun. For an additional pick-me-up, Johnny Rockets is also launching a refreshing Iced Coffee Shake. The limited-time offerings will be available through April 30 at participating locations.

Perfect for breakfast and beyond, the new twist on a classic chicken sandwich is a waffle lot of fun, featuring two fluffy, Homestyle Eggo® Waffles as buns, crispy chicken strips, bacon, and a drizzle of sweet syrup. It doesn’t stop there—Johnny Rockets has also brewed up two new, hand-spun shake flavors for an added jolt to the meal, the Vanilla Iced Coffee Shake and Mocha Iced Coffee Shake.
