Why Layne's?
At Layne’s, we don’t just provide great food, fun and fashion sense. We also offer great opportunities for youth in our communities. If you’ve read our History page (if not, you really should – it’s an epic tale filled with heroes, suspense and plot twists), you know that back in 1994, the original Layne’s location gave Mike Garratt his career start and became his extended family.

Today, we strive to keep that feeling going and maintain our college-town attitude (well, at least the good parts) as we open more locations.
