We're giving people a way to get in on that opportunity for a relatively small investment with a food that everybody loves and isn't widely available", says Melanie Farkas, Founder & CEO (QSR magazine, April 2006).
Acclaimed by the media, the Greek fast-casual eateries feature authentic dishes conceived and developed by founder, George Katakalidis. Daphne's Greek Cafe has become the largest, fast-casual Greek restaurant chain in the United States.
Daphne's Greek Cafe was founded in 1991 and currently has restaurants throughout Arizona, California, and Colorado. Acclaimed by the media, the
Greek fast-casual eateries feature authentic dishes conceived and developed
by founder and entrepreneur, George Katakalidis.
While nursing an injury during his time as a professional soccer player with the San Diego Sockers, Katakalidis realized the opportunity for high quality Greek cuisine at reasonable prices. 30+ years later, Daphne's Greek Cafe has become the largest, fast-casual Greek restaurant chain in the United States.
The future growth of Daphne's Greek Cafe will be generated by the development of company owned restaurants as well as the sale of franchise area
development agreements. Daphne's Greek Cafe does not sell single-unit franchises, so it is not possible to open just one cafe.
