BB Restaurant Group, LLC filed a voluntary Chapter 11 petition under Subchapter V of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona on Feb. 2, 2026, listing the downtown Phoenix breakfast and brunch spot Breakfast Bitch among its operations. Court docket activity shows the petition, attorney disclosures, and notices of lodging a proposed order have been entered.

Attorney Patrick F. Keery of Keery McCue, PLLC is identified as counsel in the filing. The court has set a series of procedural deadlines that will drive the next phase of the case: a list of creditors is due by Feb. 9, Schedules A/B through J and the Statement of Financial Affairs must be filed by Feb. 17, and a Chapter 11 Plan under the small business Subchapter V timetable is due by May 4, 2026. A meeting of creditors under Section 341 is scheduled for March 10.

Breakfast Bitch, located at 330 E. Roosevelt St., opened in 2019 and has been known locally for a wide range of breakfast and brunch options and for party and catering services. The filing does not include a case number, judge assignment, schedules, or any asset and liability totals in the material reviewed so far, and the public docket excerpts do not list employee headcount, payroll figures, vendor names, or lease specifics.

One report referenced a "History of Unpaid Rent and Prior Eviction Notice" in relation to the business, but the excerpt reviewed does not provide dates, amounts, landlord identity, or court records to substantiate that claim. It is not clear from the available filings whether the restaurant remains open, though reports indicate the company hopes to reorganize its business structure while operations continue under court supervision.

For workers the immediate concerns are staffing, payroll continuity, and event or catering bookings. Reorganization under Subchapter V is designed for small businesses and can move more quickly than traditional Chapter 11 cases, which may preserve jobs and help resolve landlord and vendor disputes faster. At the same time, the lack of published schedules and a creditor list means employees and vendors do not yet know where payroll and unpaid bills stand in the creditor hierarchy.

The next reporting steps that will clarify impacts for staff and contractors are the court docket entries expected by Feb. 9 and Feb. 17, the Section 341 creditors meeting on March 10, and any motions for interim relief or lease treatment lodged by counsel. Readers with appointments, event contracts, or payroll concerns should monitor the court docket and seek confirmation from the restaurant or counsel as the reorganization plan develops; the May 4 plan deadline will set the timetable for a possible emergence or more extensive restructuring.
