I don't go out for breakfast very often but when i do Sunnyside is my first choice! Delicious, fast and a beautiful little gem. The last couple of years i have gone there for my bday breakfast and will keep the tradition for years to come. This place never disappoints me but tantalizes my taste buds and usually leaves me in a food haze for awhile after!
Great place for breakfast. The hollandaise sauce was delicious, probably the best ever...the breakfast hash was really good, and the chorizo patties are outstanding!
We've been many times, nice to see they are doing well. Not a chain restaurant feel, nice small and local, great friendly service.
Perfect little place to visit when we are in Esquimalt!! Great food and great service. Charming patio in sunny Esquimalt or if happens to rain inside. Look this place up on your next visit.
great food ! love that its close to home !! yes sometimes i get some undercooked potatoes but it happens when the place is full and they are trying to fill all orders . that doesnt stop me from going and having good breakfast date with my husband !!
What a gem! A pearl within a tiny oyster. How they do it, I don't know, bordering, as it is, not quite a regular ,commercial kitchen. But the product. Fabulous! Put it on a truck, and park it outside my house!
Amazing food!! There'd be a lineup out the door if this place was downtown. One of Esquimalt's best kept secrets. Also the staff there are very friendly.
Great food, amazing staff, and the best coffee in Esquimalt! I've stopped in a hurry for toast and coffee a few times and they're always fast and friendly. A definite favourite :)
Very tasty huevos rancheros!. I went here to Sunnyside Cafe for my third visit to this restaurant in the last several months. Once again, it was a great breakfast (huevos rancheros). The young lady behind the counter was very friendly and got my coffee & breakfast ready very quickly. The price was reasonable, and my coffee refill was given without any prompting on my part. I was the first customer in at 8am, but by the time I left at 9am the cafe was mostly full - it is popular!
Great breakfast!. Tiny spot with friendly staff and good food. Worth a visit.
YUM!. Great food and family friendly! The owner is lovely and super friendly! If you haven't been you must go!
Love It!. Sunnyside Cafe is my all time favourite restaurant. The last reviewer must have hit it on a very off day because I have never experienced that kind of behaviour from anyone who works there. I know the cook starts before 7 because I see them in there on my morning walk so I wouldn't worry about the grill.
We need to support local business. Everyone has a bad day. Give this Cafe a shot -and a second chance.
Best Bennies in town!!
Love it!!. This may be one of my favourite breakfast places in town. During the day and off-peak hours it's quiet and a nice place to sit and relax. Casual atmosphere, you order, sit down and they'll bring your food to you. I like how you can just refill water whenever you want by yourself. The food is delicious. I had a typical breakfast, 2 eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast. Everything was excellent and cooked perfectly. Quick service too, plates are taken away and coffee refilled. It's quite small and when it's not busy, staff talk amongst themselves at the front counter. It was kind of weird listening to their life stories while I was sipping my coffee, but whatever not a big deal. Highly recommend.
Edit July 2 2016 : The menu has changed, and it's kind of weird. The traditional breakfast is no longer served with a garnish, I guess because the oranges are considered a side. So the plate sort of looks off. Also, there's a new cook and he served me AN END PIECE OF TOAST!!!!!! I couldn't believe it.
Loved the food. You can go order inside, and they will serve it on your table. Super easy and the food is really amazing. Their coffees are commendable too!
Absolutely delicious!! I highly recommend the Mediterranean eggs, also the chicken bacon ranch sandwich, omg!! and the waffles are amazing too. We'll come back for sure!
Brisk and accurate service. Western diner fare with a few lighter options. Off menu requests handled without issue.
Visiting from WA state, ate breakfast here on our last day. Simply amazing! 👏 hands down the best huevos rancheros I've ever had. The flavor and size portion 👌. Coffee was a bit too strong, hubby had the eggs, chorizo and potatoes. The chorizo is homemade and was also very good. Thank you for great food and friendly service!
Awesome little brunch spot! Walk up style service with seat yourself eating area was refreshing. Food was amazing, the House Benny is 🤌 highly recommended! Great coffee as well. New go-to brunch spot for us!
Haven't been in so long and will never go that long again.
The food is excellent, service is excellent.
Overall best breakfast place in vic imo!
Good people, good food.
When it's cold or raining or both, their limited seating has been packed last two times there so couldn't stay. Be nice if they would have heat lamps outside. Nowhere to eat, sadly. Do recommend the food though.
We love this place! Good food, great people and the prices are very reasonable. They make amazing soups from scratch, and their all day breakfasts are excellent!
I made a special trip to support this amazing business!! The owner is so sweet and the food is amazing. Keep up the great work!! I will be back as often as I can!!!
Never had a bad meal here yet. The staff are kinda friendly, most of the time, when they're in good mood, and you're behaving... But if you're bad, they'll be firm, yet fair. Kinda sounds like my parents!
Di6g friendly outside. Great for watching people go by. Street parking.
