Robert Perea, The Fernley ReporterOne of the area’s favorite breakfast spots is now serving in Fernley.
Squeeze In held the Grand Opening of its newest restaurant in Fernley on Sept. 21. The location marks the seventh Nevada restaurant for the Main Street Truckee original, and is situated at the Fernley Village Marketplace, 1480 Hwy 95A North.
The owner-operators are local businessmen Troy Blake and Jim Gurnea. Blake owns and operates a shipping and logistics company, while Gurnea owns construction and hospitality locations in the area. Both are longtime Fernley residents who say they have enjoyed countless omelettes at Truckee location over the years.
“Jim and I can’t wait to get the Squeeze In party started in Fernley,” Blake said. “We’ve been regulars for years and we’re looking forward to welcoming Fernley residents into what we hope will be their new favorite breakfast and lunch spot.”
Founded 50 years ago in Truckee, Squeeze In now has 10 locations across California, Nevada and Idaho, and has developed a strong following of loyal guests known as ‘EggHeads’. Each restaurant features bright sunny walls that guests can sign with a sharpie, eclectic decor and art, and an energetic vibe that keeps locals and visitors coming back for more.
Menu highlights include hearty omelettes, generous mimosas, banana walnut pancakes, classic biscuits and gravy, award-winning Bloody Marys, eggs benedict options, pancakes, sandwiches, salads, and more.
A portion of the sales during the Grand Opening weekend celebration was donated to the Fernley Art Culture Event Squad (ACES), which supports local artists and event enriching the local community.
We want nothing more than for our guests to feel right at home, and when they bring their kids, their grandkids, their friends, their spouses…that’s when we know we’re doing it right,” said Shila Morris, co-owner of the Squeeze In family of restaurants. “We’re so happy Jim and Troy are bringing Squeeze In to Fernley.”
