Patio
Annie W.

Such a cool casual vibe in this place! Nice outside patio with trees and a couple of booths inside and table. Amazing amount of choices on the menu. Totally vegan. Friendly server. I've been for dinner and for lunch. Small parking lot in front. I will return to SunCafe!

Ambiance: it's a cozy vegan and vegetarian restaurant located near freeway, small private lot although there's bunch of street parking spots nearby, spacious dining inside and outdoor patio Service: friendly but so slow and forgetful, had to remind them a couple of times for things they missed, and by the end the entire table was never served ice water. It wasn't too busy at that time, and they just seem understaffed and disorganized. Food & Drink: numerous items for breakfast and brunch, vegan and vegetarian options available PERFECTO PESTO PIZZA - ** walnut pesto, cremini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, cashew cheese, garlic pecan cheese, the pizza tasted so dry and old, order suggested by the server, not a very good does The Vegetarian Breakfast Sandwich - *** sourdough bread, eggs, American cheese, tomato, avocado and mayonnaise, average taste Onion Rings - **** crispy and tasty, recommend House Drip Coffee - ** light taste Price: small to moderate portions, and overpriced for its quality, expect $30+ per person

(11/11) SunCafe Organic is truly next-level. I've tried their lasagna, pasta, pizza, burritos, and mac -- and every single dish has been outstanding. The flavors are rich, comforting, and unforgettable. This is the kind of food I find myself craving monthly, maybe even daily. They hit all the marks: quality ingredients, fair price for what you get, warm service, and a great location. If I had to pick something to eat every day for the rest of my life, SunCafe would definitely be on the shortlist. I'm not vegan but still one of the best meals I've had ! Great ambience too small parking lot though

Vegan Sun Florentine Brunch
Sanaz S.

Everything we have had at SunCafe has been soooooo flavorful! From nachos, to smoothies, to benny- all have been excellent. The service can be a bit hit or miss, sometimes it's a bit slow when it's not even busy. And both times we have dined here, they play explicit hip/hop or rap, which is not the most chill to dine to, especially during brunch. My biggest regret about SunCafe, though, is that they started to serve fish and dairy. I understand this may open them up to more business? But for those of us that love a non-contaminated kitchen, the business decision to add animal products to the menu (and therefore in the kitchen) is a bummer.

The coffee date shake that I had was really amazing!! They have fun outdoorsy seating either lots of shade for hot summers. Although the food wasn't that flavourful, it was a really well prepared. We had to leave early to get to an appointment so they even accommodated in changing our order to take out! Would definitely have to try dining to see the real taste of the dishes next time!

VEGAN !!!!!! As usual, I forgot to take a picture before I started eating. As you can see, I was greedy. None of this kind of food is near me so I always get Extra to bring home.

Do yourself a favor a try the tempeh Reuben - it is not only beautifully presented it is absolutely delicious. I came with 2 friends but it would also be a great place for a romantic date. So many interesting options to choose from it was hard to pick just one!

Dynamite roll

Great Place for outdoor dining! Dog friendly too! Lovely peaceful outdoor patio where you can really relax and enjoy your meal with your furry friends! The menu is wonderful with vegan and vegetarian brunch options. I ordered my favorite entree (enough food to split half for lunch half for dinner, who wants to cook on a Saturday) "Mushroom Bordeliase" delicious as always! My friend ordered the more traditional "Sun Breakfast Plate with the French Toast and Bacon" he is picky and gave everything rave reviews! The staff as always is charming and accommodating and even the pups behaved! Definitely a favorite spot anytime you want a delicious meal!

All Grown Up Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Vegan Fries

SunCafe is one of those wonderful restaurants that are hard to forget and easy to return to for several reasons. First of all, it features a cozy at-home feeling (this was probably once a house) both indoors and outdoors. I love sitting outside and enjoying some fresh air with a little sunshine--as long as it's not too hot. At night, they light up the patio with some pretty cute lights and a fire pit, which gives it some extra charming vibes! Second, they have an extensive menu, so there's plenty of options to pick and choose. This restaurant is mainly vegan and organic (which I LOVE!), but I recently noticed they created a vegetarian menu and just read a recent review stating they are also serving fish now. I know this can be very disappointing for vegans because it may seem like a purpose shift; and although I am vegetarian, I feel you because it was such an unexpected change, and the thought of cross-contamination is concerning--especially with fish. I am not sure why they decided to make this change because I've tried vegan sea food from many places and it's always been a hit. Now back to the point of why it's worthwhile: Third, food is amazing! Although kind of pricey, they do serve adequate portions, and organic restaurants are not too common, which is why we pay extra for it when we can. My favorite dishes are the Vegan breakfast burrito, Belgian waffle, Jackfruit and Mushroom tacos, Lasaña, and I recently tried their Portobello sandwich, which was delicious! I also love their fresh juices. However, their iced matcha was not my favorite; I only ordered it twice but both times I had it, it lacked in flavor because it either needed more matcha or less milk and ice. Everything else has always been fantastic. Lastly, everyone who works here is always so sweet and welcoming. Service is usually fast when I go in the morning-afternoon. However, I did dine-in once at night and it was slow, but pleasant nonetheless. Whether you are a vegan or not, SunCafe definitely offers plenty of healthy and tasty food options, plus a cozy vibe that's definitely worth experiencing.

Breakfast Plate
Dianne M.

Fun decor and great patio for dining when it isn't raining! We stopped for brunch Sunday. Last time I was here I had the savory breakfast burrito which I enjoyed. This time I went for the French Toast with berries, bananas, and walnuts. It was great! Big portion I couldn't finish. My latte was hot and flavorful. My son and his husband had a breakfast plate with tons of modifications and the server just smiled and said , "No problem". She was attentive and helpful. We'll be back!

Matcha latte
Cari N.

Sunday brunch at SunCafe was fantastic! We had the breakfast panini, breakfast English muffin sandwich, Mac and cheese and a cupcake. The breakfast sandwiches were delicious, we ate every bite. I would recommend to anyone - vegan or not. The mac and cheese was delicious - we were sad we ordered a small and not a large. I'd pass on the cupcake. It's not really a cupcake. It's a dense thick dry bread with a sweet frosting. Not good at all. The patio is great and has quite a bit of seating. Service was great. I'll be back for sure and definitely recommend!

Avocado Toast
Isabella E.

It's overpriced as heck. The place is super cute though. The staff is nice but they will forget about you repeatedly. If you say "yeah I need another five minutes to look at the menu" they will give you 30. I paid 18 dollars for avocado toast. Now that's on me. That said, it was decent. I wish you got a little more. I wish the bread was a little thicker. I think you can get a way better avocado toast for a better price at black heart coffee. Speaking of coffee, the coffee here is pretty mid. Probably use the same cheap syrups they use everywhere. That's fine though this is a restaurant and not a coffee shop. I would never choose to go here but I don't mind when I end up here. I should try more things on the menu as I don't feel qualified to give an opinion but for now I'll give it four stars. :) if you have a restrictive diet, this is the place for you!

Say
Nooshi B.

Great place for brunch! Lots of savory and sweet options for everyone and we enjoyed what we ordered. I loved the chicken and waffles and my mom enjoyed her skillet. The ambiance was cute with lots of indoor and outdoor options. We sat in a small private room that looked out into the patio. Service was okay- they didn't have enough water glasses for our table which wasn't ideal and it took a while for us to pay our bill. They were super busy and I would definitely come back and try Sun Cafe again to see if service is better.

I am looking for a vegetarian friendly restaurant to host a weeknight (Tuesday evening) book club meeting. Is this place a good choice for that?

They have vegan and vegetarian options on the menu but they are no longer a vegan restaurant, just to clarify.

Is the food alkaline?

They have food choices that are alkaline but they also have non-alkaline food. Vegan restaurants don't serve meat , dairy, and eggs which are non-alkaline but most do serve starches, grains, and sugars which are also non-alkaline. Most nuts are also… Read more

Can people with nut allergies eat here?

Absolutely. Just look at the menu and customize if you need to.

Are there still any cooking classes available on weekends?

No, it is under new ownership. I don't believe they are vegan.

What are the gluten free items made of, for example in the gf pizza crust? I can eat neither corn nor wheat. Not a severe allergy (cross contamination is not an issue), but a bad GI intolerance.

Most of our GF bread products are rice based: pizza crust, ciabata, brioche

Hey SunCafe, has your mask policy changed? Are your cooks/staff wearing masks and are you still on the honor system?

Staff is definite still wearing a mask/ face shields and everything is being sanitized for your safety. :)

Reservations available? Not on open table.

We are not taking reservations at this point, and most times you we don't have a wait. Currently, under the Covid restrictions, we are only allowed to serve a maximum of 6 family members at a single table.

What is the corkage fee? We are coming back for dinner tomorrow and thought we'd bring our own wine. Thank you!

$10.

What is the dress code?

Totally casual. It can feel a little chilly if you sit out front.

Is this restaurant soy-free also?

I would think it depends on the specific dish - for example anything labeled tempeh or tofu is obvi soy derived. I am curious now about the "cheese". ! I will be there next week and will ask about Soy for cheese recipes, Pet Friendly status, and… Read more

Are they open Monday XMAS Eve? If so what hours?

I would give them a call they probably close early that night but it's not posted on their site currently

Can someone tell me what's in the Sweet Kale Smoothie? I've made plenty of smoothies nothing even came close to how delicious this one taste. It can't be nondairy can it?

It is non-dairy.

Pet friendly patio?

From what I saw, yes!

Is the brunch menu always available or just on sundays?

Only during the weekend. Saturday and Sunday. I think until 4pm. Very delicious food.

Those nachos can't possibly be vegan? And if it was? It couldn't possibly taste good? Could it?

Yes everything there is vegan and it's taste amazing. I would say that it's bette then normal cheeses and it has more flavor. The cheese is made of cashews. It's always a great item to have when you are there. Also you must have their shakes. It's a… Read more

The place is just beautiful, inside and out and you will get the best service, be it if you eat there or go to the bakery area that is amazing. They have indoor and outdoor seating. You can get a meal there or eat their wonderful pastries. If my camera does not start working better I am going to throw it though a wall. There were some dishes I had or have had and asked if they could take a photo for me. They did better, they just directed me to where I could grab some of their amazing items. We have had them all. The bakery is the best. You will love their cakes and pastries. It is all just so great and never stale. I love any of their chocolate cakes. Their food is to die for. The only thing I did not love was their eggs because I did not like the bread it came with. I bet I could have changed it, but it was good. They have wonderful soft tacos and their salads are great. They even have burgers, but I have not tried them. They have a French toast that you can add whatever you want to and it is served so you put what you want on it. We love their benedicts. I have had one with scrambled eggs and a salad that was heaven. All of their fruit bowls are the best. They have something for everyone. Their prices are a tad high, but you get what you pay for, great organic food. ​What truly makes Aeirloom special is the community they have. Everyone is so nice and more than once we have seen the same people there.
