The 450 E. High location, once the home of the Wiggins-Collamer family, has evolved over time, reflecting the entrepreneurial spirit of its current owners, Doug Dockendorf and Shelly Walker. Their latest venture, Eggs on the Run, is a testament to their commitment to not only offering delicious food but also transforming a historic landmark into a vibrant community hub.<\/p>\n<p>The concept of Eggs on the Run was born during a winter vacation in Florida in 2023. Dockendorf, an entrepreneur at heart and owner of Priority Electric, saw an opportunity to enhance the offerings at 450 E. High. Their vision? A unique \u2018hybrid\u2019 eatery experience \u2013 quick yet upscale, with the ambiance of a dine-in restaurant but the convenience of grab-and-go.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201cCustomers were coming into The Coffee Bar, located inside Finishing Touches, and asking if we had food,\u201d explained Walker.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>At that time, their offerings were limited to cookies, brownies, and biscotti. Having already established a successful coffee bar in 2022, they were eager to expand their culinary horizons. The introduction of Eggs on the Run in May 2024 proved to be a winning formula.<\/p>\n<p>The secret to their success lies in a carefully curated menu, designed in collaboration with a chef friend. Breakfast takes center stage, featuring classic options with a touch of French flair. The Croque Madame, a decadent ham and cheese sandwich with a fried egg on top, is a customer favorite, alongside the hearty brisket burrito and the timeless bacon and egg sandwich. Prices range from a budget-friendly $3 to $16, ensuring there\u2019s something for everyone.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\"><span class=\"\"><b><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"s2\"><!--more--><\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span>But Eggs on the Run isn\u2019t just for grown-ups. A dedicated kids\u2019 menu features silver dollar pancakes, fluffy Belgian waffles, egg bites, and parfaits, satisfying even the pickiest eaters. Dietary restrictions are also considered, with gluten-free and vegetarian options readily available.<\/p>\n<p>The impact of Eggs on the Run extends beyond the delicious food. It has breathed new life into the entire 450 E. High complex. Customers waiting for their breakfast creations often find themselves drawn into Finishing Touches, Walker\u2019s home decor and gift shop.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Cookies &amp; Cream, their established ice cream shop, has long been a local favorite, but Eggs on the Run has enticed visitors inside to explore the hidden gem that is Finishing Touches. They discover unique home decor items, thoughtful gifts for all occasions, and award-winning fudge and chocolates. Walker\u2019s commitment to supporting local vendors is evident, with a selection of locally-made products lining the shelves.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur goal was to create something delicious and special for our community,\u201d Walker explained, and it\u2019s clear they\u2019ve succeeded.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u2018The Backyard\u2019 with games like pickleball, a kids\u2019 nook and games, restrooms, and movie night events with a 25-foot movie screen has been a hit, further enhancing the inviting ambiance.<\/p>\n<p>Eggs on the Run is more than just a food truck; it\u2019s a testament to this couple\u2019s vision. They\u2019ve taken a historic landmark and transformed it into a vibrant hub, offering delicious food, beautiful decor, and a welcoming space for the Malta community to gather. Finishing Touches, Cookies &amp; Cream, The Coffee Bar and Eggs on the Run are all located at 450 E. High in Malta.
