Burgers and baked oatmeal: Two breakfast/brunch/lunch spots open in Johnson County

Croissant French toast. Baked oatmeal. Signature cocktails.

Those are just some of the offerings at Johnson County’s two new breakfast, brunch and lunch spots.

HomeGrown in Leawood

Wichita’s HomeGrown entered the market in 2021 with a Brookside restaurant.

Now it has opened in Camelot Court, 11705 Roe Ave., Suite A, Leawood. Corner Bakery Cafe had formerly operated in the spot.

HomeGrown’s made-from-scratch menu includes its popular coffee cake with a warm buttermilk caramel sauce, croissant French toast, baked oatmeal with fresh berries and pecans, biscuits and gravy, omelets and scrambles, eggs Benedict (with cage-free eggs), and house-made Pop-Tarts-style pastries (brown sugar cinnamon or a seasonal flavor).

For lunch, it has Cuban and turkey avocado sandwiches, salads such as the Power BLT with broccoli and kale, cream of tomato soup, fresh fruit and roasted vegetables.

Drinks include mimosas with fresh-squeezed orange juice, and margaritas.
