A familiar Memphis breakfast name is preparing to expand into Germantown.

 

Sunrise Memphis plans a third restaurant at a former AutoZone property on Farmington Boulevard, according to an October 23 local business report.

 

The new location would join the restaurant's existing operations in the Medical District and East Memphis.

 

A permit was filed to convert the former auto-parts store into a dining space, an early step in the property's transformation.

 

What is planned?

 

The business is known for breakfast favorites and a menu that has built a following across the city.

 

The Germantown expansion would bring those offerings closer to residents east of Memphis.

 

The owners are targeting late spring for the opening, but the exact date has not been confirmed.

 

Renovation and permitting remain important milestones before a restaurant can welcome guests.

 

The redevelopment also gives a former retail property a new use, adding another dining option to an established suburban corridor.

 

Why it matters locally

 

Restaurant expansions can create employment, bring activity to nearby businesses, and broaden choices for customers.

 

For fans of Sunrise Memphis, the third location could make a familiar breakfast outing more convenient.

 

The announcement is a planned opening, not a completed one.

 

Residents should wait for a confirmed opening date, final address details, and operating hours from the business.

 

901 Daily will follow permitting progress and report the launch when the owners announce it.
