For Chef Damion Stewart and Kwasi Henry, the Jamaican owners behind Eggs &…, the idea for the eatery began with travel and a shared appreciation for how something as familiar as breakfast could be reimagined.

Travelling across the world, they shared with Thursday Food, exposed them to breakfast spots that managed to strike an interesting balance: quick and uncomplicated, yet still elevated in taste. A breakfast sandwich “could be convenient without being ordinary, pairing familiar ingredients with unexpected flavours, interesting fixings and thoughtful sides”.

It was an experience they felt was missing back home. That inspiration eventually became Eggs &, a Jamaican-owned concept built around a simple idea: start with eggs, then see where the “&” takes you.
