Stopped by to get a coffee while my car is getting serviced next door at Holden. As soon as I walked through the outside seating area I instantly enjoyed the relaxed & comfy feeling. With blankets for your legs available for cold days & walking inside to tables & chairs that reminded me of my grandmas. Having a peek at the menu & a slice of espresso brownie just put out it was a tough decision. The bacon & egg sandwich was the winner & I was not disappointed. I am not a condiments lover but that tomato chilli jam brought it all together. Unfortunately not having lactose free milk was disappointing. Unfortunately almond,coconut or soy milk just dont cut it in flavour department for a cupacino. Looking forward to coming back.

Whoever decides what businesses get to open in George St at Thebarton obviously has great taste. This street, which was already home to The Wheatsheaf hotel and the Deli, now has Mr Sunshine's - a great café with amazing coffee and breakfasts, and a good looking lunch menu. Apparently it has been open since 2013, with a refurbishment in June 2014 but to me this place is brand new, so it's pretty exciting. I was waiting for a meeting, so when the member of staff asked me if I wanted a coffee, we were off to a great start. It's always good when someone comes up and looks after you and makes sure you're ok. The coffee was served in a funky second hand looking mug and saucer which perfectly matched the paintings and other nick knacks on the wall. This place has been really well designed. Many of the paintings and accessories wouldn't look out of place on the set of Twin Peaks or a Wes Anderson film set. I would really like to know who designed the interior of this café and get them to design my kitchen. Something else to note is that this café doesn't feel cluttered at all. It's a very smart use of the space. After our meeting I had a bacon and egg sandwich with chilli jam and rocket and a second coffee. It was top notch grub which started my day on a good note. I'll definitely be back.

Um, delicious array of breakfast meal options for around $12 ...not $20? A hipster place that doesn't gouge you for the honour of being seen with the in crowd? Welcome to Mister Sunshine's. Everyone had mad order envy of everyone else's selections. Staff were amazingly friendly - there's one guy there my partner calls 'the Happy guy!' which should give you some indication - and it's the sort of place that let us chill for an hour after we finished our meals just chatting and sipping water without pressuring us to order more coffees etc. In short, it's just about the perfect brunch place on this side of Adelaide.

Minced Mushrooms with bacon.

I'm gonna put it out there... best breakky I've tried in Adelaide so far. Yep, I said it. When you cruise into George Street, Thebarton the bold signage of Sunshine's is hard to miss. The front courtyard is full of mixed size tables shaded by the huge gum tree. The front seating area alone is true to the sunshiny name. Walk through the door though, and it's the cheery staff's demeanour that bring the rays. The eclectic bunch always provide outstanding service with a smile. Then we have the food. Gorgeous, fresh, well balanced, quality and scrumptious are all great adjectives to describe the menu. I can only speak of the breakky menu, but I've tried a lot of it and so far have not found a dud (I don't expect to). My faves are the bacon and egg sandwich, the smashed avo (seasonal) and the minced mushrooms. The coffee is solid and on top of all this the prices are great, and whilst there's sometimes a short wait on the weekend, it's rarely too long. If you haven't tried Sunshine's I ask you, why not? Do it.

Loved this little hideaway in thebarton. Very busy the Friday morning I went.. Service was friendly but took awhile to get to order. Had to order another coffee! I had scrambled eggs, bacon & mushroom. Don't get me wrong, I love my eggs a tad under, but they were a wee too much. The mushroom were incredible, I am coming back for those babies! Last of all coffee, a little on the weak side for my liking but was presented lovely. I look forward to going again, definitely deserves a second try!

This is the best Warm Chicken Salad in the Western Suburbs, you should try it ASAP!

Must admit, pretty cool joint, makes good use of retro interior. You walk in, the guys behind the counter make you feel welcome immediately. Menu suits all, from bacon & eggs to chicken to vego. I got the Warm Chicken Salad which was fantastic. Coffee decent too, highly recommend!

Whats NEW in West Thebarton!? Well this place is! :) So I don't really know the history behind Mister Sunshines.. but what I can tell you is that this place is back, and the best its ever been.. Mister Sunshine's is a mix between your grandparents house and a mexican garden.. I really found it very cool.. The location isn't ideal, as Holden take up all the car spots, but if your willing to walk a bit you can find a carpark in one of the small (i mean tiny) side streets. Pricing wise.. Mister sunshine's owners have done really well as you really can't go wrong with a maximum meal price of $12.. Now as many of you would know I am a big fan of burgers.. and when you see a burger like this one on the menu you have to try it. The "Beef & Chorizo burger with beetroot".. What a mix, but it worked... the worst part was that it was over so quickly.. and I found the lack of sides or side options disappointing. For all those Coffee lovers out there.. you'll be happy with the coffee choice.. not 100% sure the branding, but it is really smooth.. Unfortunately there large really isn't large, more of a small mug. The Menu is quirky, but well thought out.. There is definitely some other meals I will try on my next visit.. Overall this quirky little venue reminds me of my grandparents kitchen.. with a hipster touch.. I think she actually has the plates and mugs.. :)

Bacon, Chorizo, and eggs on toast with a nice cafe latte.

I can't speak for other meals but if it was like my breakfast experience this morning... GO HERE! As I walked off the street toward the entrance I was greeted and asked what I needed... "Breakfast" I replied. "Take a seat and we will be right with you" One minute later I was served some water and my order taken.,The Eggs on Toast with Bacon and Chorizos" Was Delicious - But it was the loveliness of the staff that will have me coming back.

Let's just say that I can't wait to come back here - for a second, third and fourth time! So writing a review based on one visit may be risky but I'm sure I'll update this as I sample the range of selections on offer! On my one and only visit thus far I sampled the beef and chorizo burger and I absolutely loved it! I teamed it with a freshly squeezed juice - featuring apple, ginger and... something else delicious! The service was super friendly - a real reason to return and no item on the menu was over $12! I also really liked the decor - a little bit 'hipster' but hey - you gotta be on trend these days! Definitely swing by and give this place a look in if you're in the area!

Nice hidden gem in Thebarton

It gets quite busy here during the week for lunch so allow a bit of time to find a table and wait a couple of minutes. Rest assured it is worth the wait, when our food came out - it felt like a bit of warmth and love was delivered on our plate. I had the soup of the day and on a rather cold and blustery day it felt like a little ray of sunlight in every spoonful. The staff were so energetic, happy and friendly you can't help but share in their good mood. It was certainly my mister sunshine on a rather grey day!

Fantastic! Hit the jackpot for lunch when we came across the small hidden cafe The smashed pumpkin on toast was full of flavour along with the haloumi burger Definitely worth visiting.

Pooches and Piccolos

Amazing vegetarian friendly fare, dog friendly is an understatement. A house made chinotto was the perfect accompaniment to a slightly seedy Sunday siesta.

Mashed Mushroom with Toast & Poached Egg ... Yum :P

But by far the bacon and egg sandwich with rocket is the most delicious breakfast I've had in a long time.

I have visited on a number of occasions in various sized groups and also 1:1 and I have loved it…read moreeach and every each time. The menu is large and interesting enough with not too many "generic" options except the ones you want such as Chocolate Fondu for 2 or 4. I had a Banana, Peanut Butter, Cookies, Vanilla Custard, Creamy concoction in a jar which was topped with icecream very very delish and beautifully presented. My companions had waffles, ice-cream and a yummy chocolate and berry mousse/pudding. All were very pleased with their orders and there was a lot of "would you mind if I had a fork full?" going on. Coffee and desserts came out all together and our table was cleared in an appropriate amount of time after we had finished our plates. Being a group of 6 is probably a little too large for the small outdoor space on the sidewalk with round tables and various chair heights, but we made it work. The only down side to this spot is that the coffee is "good" not "awesome"

Upon entering here, they were very busy - despite being busy we were acknowledged by the friendly…read morestaff instantly, and seated within a few moments of waiting, without a booking. Luckily, a table had just left, with a quick clean of the table - we were seated. Decor - Candles! I love candlelit places at night, the chairs were also quite comfy, some places which have the same modern/sleek vibe to it like this place, have uncomfortable plastic or metal chairs, but we were seated in comfortable cushy bliss for your butt! We ordered - I had the Cherry Ripe Waffle and one of their 'house specialities' the St Louis Hot Chocolate' Waffles: I have to admit I was disappointed in the waffle, this is what pushed it down to 3 stars rather than 4. The waffle was warm, but it tasted like it had been reheated, or simply defrosted and stuck in a microwave. It wasn't crunchy or fresh, the texture was chewy and dry. I chose this dish because it mentioned white chocolate and almonds, it was presented on the plate, but the white chocolate tasted like melted white chocolate buttons from the local supermarket, too sugary and it hard almost hardened when I tried to scoop it up to put on my waffle. The 'French Vanilla Ice Cream' tasted distinctively like Bulla Vanilla ice cream. The cherries, and cherry glaze were delicious though. The Hot chocolate: Average more or less, it was a good hot chocolate, but I've had better in most other places, for a house special, again I was hoping for a bit more, but I might be a little harsh here, as my friend said he absolutely loved it. I'd order it again if I came here, and that is usually a good sign. They had free water available for patrons, in the water was such things as citrus; oranges, lemons, lychee, and strawberry, I thought that was a little fancy. It was a nice touch to the place. If I came here again, I'd avoid the waffles completely, as they were sub-par. But the venue is a nice place, with a positive atmosphere. Why no white hot chocolate? This makes me sad.

The Coffee Bean Shop is where I purchase my Mexican Organic coffee when Ross the boss has it in…read morestock, which is most of the time. I've caught him out once or twice. When that has happened I do try other types of coffee from his available collection, but mostly it's the Mexican Organic I go for. Ross and his team have a very good range and even though it is an expensive item, some things in life just have to be right before I can deal with them. I do not like the effects of instant coffee on my system, I almost always end up with a stomach gripe if I drink instant coffee, and you simply don't want to know about that. So I usually drink plunger coffee, it is one of my special things in life I suppose. As far as The Coffee Bean Shop goes they stock a range of implements to create coffee in - mostly the little Italian stove-top espresso jugs, but I tend not to favour them because they are made from aluminium and I understand that too much aluminium heated and exposed to something you then drink can cause some brain function problems over time - just something I read that has stuck. That's why I plunge, but you know, the occasional aluminium jug espresso coffee is no big deal. They do the grinding for you if you need it done, and they use a range of coffee packets that are a nice plane brown bag, so its a pretty sustainable system. Their selection of products includes some pre-ground coffee beans in little plastic pails with a lid, a variety of fragrant and tasty teas, blends of the tea, and the coffee and tea making equipment I mentioned above plus other stuff and some specialty sweets that you'd have with a beverage, or give as a gift - try a chocolate coated coffee bean - wow!

I have been going to the Coffee Bean Shop for years now. The market stall only just recently had a…read moreface lift, and I am really happy for them! It looks amazing, they really did a great job. I am happy to see that this stall got updated as it is often one of the first stall you see when entering the Markets from the carpark escalators. The staff at this stall are always very friendly and happy to have a chat about the different varieties of coffee and what they taste like. You will find some amazing beans from all over the world. In particular my partner and I are quite fond of the Organic Mexican beans. Full flavour while being quite creamy and nutty. If you have a tighter budget, why not try their house blends. They are not too bad, the espresso blend is probably the best they offer in that range. If you need ground beans, they will grind them to the style that suits your brew equipment. We prefer to grind them at home to ensure that the coffee is fresh. If you are searching for a gift for a coffee lover, look no further! Purchase them an Aeropress which are sold here. They are a single cup air pressure plunger. They make the perfect brew away from home. My partner loves his and uses it at work every day!
