TIPSY EGG: A new breakfast & brunch restaurant just opened in downtown Chandler! Tipsy Egg is making its mark in the historic part of town with its entrees and vibrant cocktails.

“We’ve done a really dynamic job creating a daily brunch kind-of scenario," said Niels Kreipke, co-owner & landowner of Tipsy Egg, to ABC15. "So you can come in for breakfast and you can come in here for lunch…the menu is available the entire time.”
