What is Restaurant Misfits?
Restaurant Misfits is a podcast for restaurant owners and operators who want to grow. Each episode, Brett Linkletter sits down with a top chef, multi-location operator, tech founder, or industry thought leader. Together they pull apart the tactics, decisions, and hard-won lessons that actually move the needle.
Topics range from restaurant marketing and customer acquisition to team management, data, and what it really takes to scale. Whether you run a single neighborhood spot, a multi-location group, or you are just getting started, every episode is built to give you something you can act on.
