How much does a The Breakfast Club at Midtown franchise make?

The Breakfast Club at Midtown is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every full-service restaurant brand that discloses earnings in the Full-service restaurant franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

The Breakfast Club at Midtown franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come The Breakfast Club at Midtown's 5% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a The Breakfast Club at Midtown franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "The Breakfast Club at Midtown franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

The Breakfast Club at Midtown lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

The Breakfast Club at Midtown's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.

The Breakfast Club at Midtown closures & failure rate

Before you sign, The Breakfast Club at Midtown will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what The Breakfast Club at Midtown's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a full-service restaurant of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. The Breakfast Club at Midtown's outlet tables did not machine-read cleanly; Item 20 of the source FDD has them.

Who owns The Breakfast Club at Midtown?

The Breakfast Club at Midtown's franchise is offered by Breakfast Club Franchising, Inc. — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
