Hatch winner plans to open this spring

In August 2024, Scramblin’ Egg was named the first winner of Hatch Bloomington, an annual retail pitch competition that offers entrepreneurs the opportunity for $100,000 in financial assistance, significant exposure and connection to a business network.

Since then, Scramblin’ Egg has been busy working with the Minneapolis Regional Chamber and the City of Bloomington to transition their food cart into a fast-casual, “Egg-centric” restaurant in the Town and Country shopping center at Portland and American. By February 2025, the team had secured a location, hired a contractor and developed preliminary designs.

“We’re excited to have signed our lease and we’re busy getting the space ready for our grand opening,” said owner Grant Veitenheimer. “We’re also doing a lot of work in our test kitchen for some new recipes. We really miss our customers and are antsy to open so we can cook breakfast for Bloomington again!”
