Sugar Rush Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Walnut, California

8 yrs ago- 3 star. Today, also 3 star. I wanted to find café where I can relax, work, while eating eggs and drinking coffee. The second I got in, I was greeted by this guy that I had to sit in a small table with 2 chairs. I told him I need to work as well and he replied other tables are for 4 seaters. This was 11 am on Wednesday. I counted the seats, they had 6 four-seaters tables, 4 two-seaters tables (with two guests in one table and three guests in another table). This kinda service and nonsense seating policy on a hump day, is the type that drive customer like me away and choose franchise establishments such as panera or starbucks which located less than a mile away. None of the coffee refillable. No Creamers options/ milk options, sense was just unwelcoming and wouldn't want to come back. Maybe in another 8 years. I enjoy my breakfast taste though, but nothing extraordinary. read more

Nice place, amazing coffee! Nice family owned place. Don't let the storage building location deter you. Breakfast was fresh and tasty and served very rapidly. Service was courteous though not immediate. Coffee is from a local roaster and brewed fresh by the 16 ounce cup. No refills as it's by the order, but it's a good size and very good. Only drawback was grilled foods had a slight of oil taste and a few things left off my order, but not a major deal. I would give 4.5 so since I have to go by even stars I'll go 5. read more

Stopped by after a 5K run. El diablo dark roast coffee hit the spot. Staff were attentive. It's a bustling little cafe, moderate noise inside but we were still able to have a conversation. It's been two years since our visit, the breakfast plate I ordered was the standard bacon, eggs, and toast. Maybe next time, I'll be more adventurous as their menu looked promising. read more

Went to Sugar Rush cafe with some friends that flew into town on a whim. They have been in Walnut for quite awhile but I had never been to this restaurant before. I got the cinnamon raisin French toast loaf with the candied bananas - I could eat a giant bowl of the warm bananas if given the option (haha). I don't usually use syrup on my French toast so I used the bananas as my syrup and they paired beautifully with the raisin French toast. The eggs were cooked as requested and big slices of bacon were provided. My husband got a burger to go and we tasted his fries (I don't normally eat fried food but those fries were GOOD). We have been back since and hope they reopen soon (after the NY!) read more

Rude service, owner came out and aggressively yelled at us to leave. Whatever quality food, you can find better elsewhere. Meh

I haven't been back to this cafe after visiting years ago. Anyway, I can't frequent a breakfast cafe that doesn't serve either biscuits and gravy or chicken fried steak with gravy. To me, this is a prerequisite for a breakfast cafe or restaurant. The service at my last visit was okay, but my breakfast was just okay as well. I'm writing this review a few years later because I was just checking the menu to see if they had added at least biscuits and gravy so I could give them a try. Sadly, I can't support it. read more

It's still one of our favorite breakfast or brunch places in Walnut. If you want fresh and delicious meals, then you are in the right place. We took our friends from out of state to have a big breakfast there, and they were impressed by the taste, presentation, and portion. They also liked their coffee and tea. The food was so good and we especially liked their hashbrowns, waffles, and sandwiches. The place is cozy and they have a huge menu and we liked the food we've tried so far. read more

The food is great I have been going here for years and it's still tasted amazing. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

I was craving for some French toast and roads led me here to this chill diner spot. Food: I got the raisin cinnamon French toast. The banana and strawberry soaked in a light syrup. Light, and fresh. With the title sugar rush it doesn't feel too sugary to me. Service: sat down, and quickly took my order. Diner style pay cashier. Ambiance: diner style, really relaxed place and music. read more

Nice little cafe serving good breakfast. Was recommended this place by an old instructor and surely did not disappoint. Staff were all very friendly and helpful paired along the cozy ambiance of a cafe. Opted for their cinnamon raison french toast combo, steak & eggs, Iced Angelino. Everything was quite tasty. The only dislike was their "caramelized bananas" and iced angelino. The caramlized bananaes were essentially just sliced bananas and strawberries in a sweet syrup. The, coffee, on other hand, tasted like an ordinary coffee. But, nonetheless, everything else was quite satisfying. read more

Sugar Rush Cafe is a neighborhood gem that locals frequent. It is a small family owned business so you get delicious cooked meals without the overly inflated price. The owner is very nice and friendly. The restaurant is small with approximately 10 tables but it is very comfortable place for breakfast with friends and family. My favorite is their 2 Eggs Breakfast with choice of protein, which comes with their hash brown and a side of toast. Highly recommended! read more

Brunch for our last day in California. This place was a very close to our hotel and had good reviews. We arrive first thing I noticed where limited parking that was the only complaint of the visit. It was very comfy cozy inside the yellow wise made it very welcoming the server Came in that our drink order right away. We ordered raisin French toast and the chicken spinach melt area. I paired my sandwich with a caramel latte, which was worth every penny. I paid for it. Our food came out surprising real quick. We were very high. I would definitely visit again. Sidenote I would be cautious on parties larger than four or five because the place is small and shine. read more

Sugar Rush Cafe - Coconut waffle combo, The Club Sandwich, coffee - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Walnut, California

It's been a while since my first review, but I have visited several times since then. Sugar Rush Café was one of our local weekday lunch spots, but we've only been in the office 1 day a week for a long time, so my experiences have been fewer and further between. My most recent visit was the same experience that I've had in the past. The food is very good, you get large portions, and they serve breakfast all day. The service is fast, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's great. The staff rushes to get orders taken and prepared, but they're not overly friendly. The ladies in the kitchen take pride in the food they make, and it shows, but sometimes things are done so quickly that a request like "no onions" is missed. Also, the prices are a little more expensive than other similar places. read more

Looking for a local cafe and found Sugar Rush cafe close by the house. They have been established for 16 years and I didn't even know. First impression is always and usually right. My first thought as I came in the door was it's going to be okay. It's actually more than okay. This is mom and pop little cafe. Serving breakfast and lunch. Their hours of operation is short from 7am-2pm. It's a small cafe , just about 7-8 table inside only . No patio. It's kind of hidden between industrial offices and buildings. First thing I noticed, is that they are a bit dated but they kept the place clean and organized. Looks like the owners take pride in their operation and cafe. That is so important to have great food but a clean environment to enjoy too. And they got both. I enjoyed my breakfast and the latte. I spoke to the owner himself and he's super friendly. A very hard working guy. I'll definitely will go back again for my quick breakfast and latte. read more

Lovely, kind and attentive servers. Nice varied menu. We enjoyed bacon and eggs and their special French toast, both meals were delicious, excellently prepared and perfectly sized. I recommend this cafe wholeheartedly. read more

This place is awesome! It can be missed if you drive too fast down Valley Blvd, so pay attention. Co-worker and I were craving diner food but the good kind of diner food. We came across this spot and gave it a try for lunch. Don't underestimate a smaller size establishment as you can be missing out on some really good service and food. We both got the grilled chicken spinach panini sandwich. I added the sweet potato fries and an Emerald Hot green tea. Sooooo gooood. The tea was tasty- cute tea pot with an infuser for the legit herbals. I added some honey and I was feeling my Friday! The sandwich had such good flavor with the spinach and grilled cheese added. Honestly, a very good Chicken sandwich. The service was attentive, good music, clean and fast- within my lunch hour so we were happy! We vowed to return for waffles and pancakes and service again. Such a friendly environment. read more

Sugar Rush Cafe - Their AMAZING, pour over coffee!!!! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Walnut, California

You'd never expect to find this where it is. It's located in a warehouse/industrial area on Valley Blvd between Walnut and Pomona. Despite this, it's a great breakfast and lunch place. Once inside, you're met with the owners & servers who are very friendly and inviting. Not the biggest restaurant, but clean and nicely decorated. I'm not a coffee drinker, but I've been told by others that they serve premium coffee. Their food is fresh and quality made. I've been here for breakfast and it never disappoints. You can tell they take pride in making your food in just the appearance alone. Everything comes out looking like it could belong on a cover of a food magazine - and the taste matches! Definitely recommend coming here if you can. read more

Don't over complicate it. The Sugar Rush Cafe is a super chill spot on Valley BLVD. Great place to meet with a friend before afternoon lectures. Be careful though! This place closes super early at 2:30. Food was solid, nothing that changed my life but tasted good nevertheless. The Milk tea I ordered came in a huge container though, probably the best milk tea to price ratio I've had in a minute. The interior and exterior are nothing to rave home about but the place is still inviting nevertheless. Our waitress was super cool also! Check this spot out with a friend. read more

My family has swim event at MT SAC these whole 4 days. Decided to get there early and had drove by this restaurant. The food is not great at all. I told the older gentleman that was there , that it was oily and had no flavor . He said to me 'no it's not oily' and I told him it is and it's not good. He didn't care and walked away. I paid $44 for this kind of food and it just simply bad. My daughter and I were still hungry after this. I tried to pick the food that wasn't so bad because I was hungry . This establishment is simply not good at all. read more

Sugar Rush Cafe - 3 item omelette - mushroom, ham and tomato - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Walnut, California

I haven't been here in a while and decided to have a birthday celebration with couple friends after a morning run. Got here at around 9 and were seated immediately. The wait staff is rushing and doesn't seems to have much patience. I wanted to change my order and she said I have to handwrite everything because we don't have Internet. I'm not sure what it has to do with it but ok. Food is average at beat and you can probably get something similar at other restaurants with a more reasonable price. At 940 we paid our bills and the waitress said they cannot split the bills in 2 because they don't have Internet. I'm like?????? What does that have to do with splitting the bill? Ok it's fine no biggies. At around 9:50 as we were chatting a guy came and asked us are we done. I was like????????And he said there's people waiting. I looked behind and there's 3 open tables and I look at the front there's 2 small tables. So I guess he just wanted us to leave. Is not like we didn't order food or we were hanging out there for hours. We all order food plus we ordered togo. And we were there less than an hour. We didn't say anything just got up and leave. What a horrible experience we had and we all felt like that's very inappropriate. read more

I'm definitely going to eat here again, and I recommend you do too! read more

Went to eat breakfast here with my family for the first time. Beware of the pretentious owner. Freshly brewed coffee SHOULD NOT be lukewarm and sour. It was the worst tasting coffee.

Food is tasty and consistently good. Service is usually fast, though there may be a wait when the place is full. Parking can be a bit tricky, so plan ahead.

It all began with a beautiful Sunday morning. I drove by the town with family, and we spotted this place. It has been a while since the last time I came. "Why not" we thought. The cafe is pretty hidden among the warehouses and office buildings. The inside is pretty cozy and clean. Me: Can we sit at the table towards the end? It's easier either for the toddler. (There were 2 empty tables at the end with sofa) The waitress/ owner: No, they are only for party of 6-8 people. (Alright...) We sat down. 10 mins later, a group of 2 walked in, and she gave one of the table to them. It made me rasie my eyebrow. I tried to focus on the food. They tasted ok. There is nothing wrong with them. I tried to customize my omelette but she got some detail off. I tried to clarify before she walked to the kitchen. We couldn't finish the conversation very well because she seemed to be in the rush. Of course, they didn't deliver the omelette correctly. It missed the bacon I'd like to add. It wasn't a huge deal if they didn't charge me the extra. I again try to distract myself and focused on the coffee Instead. I heard the owners were communicating in Mandarin. Fortunately I am bilingual! I decided to use a different approach. Me spoke in Chinese: "excuse me, I need something." I tried to get a refill at the same time by pointing to my cup. The waitress spoke in English: "#%^*" and walked pass by me. I had zero idea what just happened. A couple more groups of people came in, and I decided to let it slide. The service has made me uneasy about the whole experience, and the food definitely didn't help. I need a to go box. Me: can I get a to go box? The waitress: okay. She gave me the check, and the box never came as I sat there for another 5-10 mins. Waiting. The end. read more

Pretttttty decent food with hit or miss service. It's an American Diner style, similar to Denny's, minus the salt. They actually use quality ingredients and focus on the quality of the foods here. They also serve intelligentsia and klatch coffee at a decent price but no refills. It gets busy during weekday lunches, but theres minimal wait time to get a seat. You'll spend much longer waiting for your food though. I usually have to wait ~30 minutes for my food if I come during the lunch hours. The cobb salad is good but needs some blue cheese. The sausages are great, eggs are great, and belgian waffles are amazing! Don't expect spectacular service though, the place is run by an older couple and theyre not too chatty. read more

Sugar Rush Cafe - Cobb Salad, pina colada smoothie - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Walnut, California

Cute cafe located in an unassuming industrial area. I tried this place for the first time and the service is friendly and very good. During our visit, there were several people that came in that seemed to be regulars. They serve Intelligentsia coffee if you like that. They also serve smoothies and boba drinks. The food is good, but they need to work on getting the orders right. My son ordered a lettuce wrapped cheeseburger, but they forgot the cheese. I ordered a Coconut French waffle w/ no bacon, but discovered a pile of bacon under the whipped cream. Hubby had the Cobb salad and that was good. Overall a nice place with a good variety of entrees. I will be back to try more food! read more

Tucked in an out of the way office park on Valley Blvd, Sugar Rush is well worth finding despite the humble exterior. The people who run the place are very nice, and the interior is very much an "intimate local cafe" look. It's clean and simple but don't expect pretty. The food is simply excellent. We all had breakfast, and everyone described their meal as delicious. In particular, Sugar Rush makes fantastic hash browns - super crispy. We had omlettes, pancakes, the cinnamon raisin french toast, steak-n-eggs, and breakfast wrap. all very good. they serve intelligentsia coffee, which is quite good, however the coffee is cafe style so you get 1 (very generous) cup per order. The prices here are so reasonable that i hesitate to mention it for fear that it will get crowded and they have to raise prices LOL. read more
