The second Tucson location for Kneaders Bakery & Café is set to open on Friday, Aug. 19, bringing its fresh-baked, house-made ethos to the corner of North Craycroft and East River roads.
The restaurant will open its doors at 7 a.m. Friday and the first 100 guests Friday and Saturday get free french toast.
The restaurant, founded and based out of Orem, Utah, will donate 10 percent of the proceeds from the opening weekend to local schools, a Kneaders spokeswoman said.
The restaurant will be open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and until 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. It's closed on Sundays.
Meanwhile work is progressing on the third Kneaders, set to open in late September on North Oracle Road and Linda Vista Boulevard.
Kneaders, founded in 1997, has 17 Arizona locations.
