Sunrise Social in Cherry Hill is celebrating three years in business, and the popular breakfast-and-brunch restaurant has plenty to celebrate, including ambitious expansion plans and a new partnership with South Jersey Food Scene.
Located at 1200 Haddonfield Road in Cherry Hill, Sunrise Social originally opened in October 2023 as Brunchaholics, taking over the former Zoe’s Kitchen space.
The restaurant quickly became a destination for Southern-inspired breakfast, brunch, and lunch, serving generous portions of comfort food with creative twists.
South Jersey Food Scene first reported on Brunchaholics’ opening three years ago, and we’ve followed its evolution ever since.
From Brunchaholics to Sunrise Social
In 2025, the restaurant entered a new chapter, rebranding as Sunrise Social and introducing a refreshed identity and updated menu.
While the name changed, the restaurant maintained its focus on Southern-inspired flavors, hospitality, and an elevated brunch experience.
The menu features made-from-scratch breakfast, brunch, and lunch dishes, including its signature S.G.G., a hearty combination of fried catfish, shrimp, and crab meat served over gumbo grits.
With colorful presentations, generous portions, and a distinctive menu, Sunrise Social has continued to build on the foundation Brunchaholics established.
Sunrise Social Announces Expansion Plans Across Six States
As Sunrise Social celebrates its third anniversary, the company is also looking ahead.
The restaurant brand recently announced plans to pursue franchise opportunities across six states: New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Virginia, Florida, and Texas.
Currently, Sunrise Social operates two locations, including its flagship restaurant in Cherry Hill and another in Philadelphia.
The company is positioning itself for growth through franchising, seeking entrepreneurs interested in bringing its Southern-inspired breakfast, brunch, and lunch concept to additional communities.
One selling point of the franchise model is its daytime-focused schedule, which lets restaurant owners avoid the late-night hours often associated with the hospitality industry.
Although the company has identified six states for potential expansion, it has not yet announced specific new locations or opening dates.
