Excitement surrounding the 2026 FIFA World Cup is growing stronger as brand's begin to tap into themed events to help satisfy fans in new ways, which is what we're seeing with the Snooze Eatery Brunch Goals menu.
The menu is slated to arrive at select locations in the Dallas, Houston, Kansas City and Atlanta regions where diners will be able to enjoy an array of different dishes each themed with a different country in mind. This comes as a nod to the various international players in the World Cup, and includes such options as the Lingonberry Lemon Ricotta inspired by Sweden, Dulce de Leche Pancakes inspired by Argentina and much more.
Executive Vice President of Marketing Brian Loeb commented on the Snooze Eatery Brunch Goals menu saying, "Match day already has the energy. We’re just putting brunch in the middle of it. Brunch Goals brings global flavors, fan spirit and that unmistakable Snooze twist to every table.”
