Shoutout from the green inhale/exhale (me) sweater this morning! I arrived after checking out our inn to grab a chai latte (to be honest it wasn't my favorite) at this eye catching pastry delight of a place before going on my solo way. Decided to go with two cookies for my brothers (and parents to share if inclined to). I unforuntately on the hand am allergic to oats and so did not get any cookies for myself. One was a orange with I can't recall what and one was a peanut butter one. My parents thought these cookies were fantastic. Dad is raving about it and he doesn't care for sweets that much. He was asking all the details of this spot. And said it's defintely better than any of the cookie chains his children have been obessed with growing up. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. I'll defintely be back! - Staff super sweet, especially the lady who took my order. - What you may or may not experience with other Patrons: Patrons from this morning: some were friendly, out of the way, and at least two were slighly to most defintely unpleasant. One noticeable patron in the blue cyan bright shirt this morning gave the worst energy and was as loud as his shirt - sir, you take up space and are a unpleasant soul. To the gentleman who opened the door with his hands full alongside his animal companion - thank you! read more

Busy on a Saturday morning. Limited selection, but delicious pastries. They reminded me of European-style as they weren't the overly sweet style of so many pastry shops. read more

Loved all the fresh bakery, juices and the warmth. We had their spicy breakfast burrito, egg crossoient and ginger love juice.

This use to be the Wild Goose Cafe many, many, many moons ago. Cute place and layout. They still have local artist painting/art on the wall for purchase (love that they support their community). The coffees are great and the pastries even better. Its not pretentious cafe in anyway. They welcome singles, couples, families and those with pets. We stayed awhile enjoying our coffees and pastries and people watched. read more

Exactly what we were looking for! Great coffee, pastries and chill, local vibes. Doggo friendly!

This place is cute and welcomes pets. Seems most of the patrons are locals. The staff is friendly and you could tell they enjoy working here. We ordered a breakfast sandwich, an open-faced Lox bagel sandwich, and a fruit parfait (not pictured). They were all delicious, especially the lox bagel. I would definitely order that again. They also have handmade tile art that is for sale and featured all over their walls. The bakery is located in a small center that has a market and other restaurants. We walked around and could really feel the small town vibe, which I absolutely adore. Definitely stop by here when visiting Carmel. read more

Loved it! I had the veggie burrito and coffee. Plenty of food and good salsa. They offered two drip coffee which was great. Plenty of seating. Lots of yummy looking baked breakfast goodies. read more

I had to rate this spot again. I am a seasonal returner to Carmel Valley. I'm a creature of habit when it comes to my favorite places to eat, and this one never disappoints. For a picky eater that I am. I love stopping in here--it's one of the few places where I feel genuinely tempted to try something new. The frittatas are amazing, and they offer a great variety of thoughtfully selected pastries, including options for dietary restrictions like gluten-free. Staff are always friendly and patient with the curious like me. :) read more

Wow such a cute little breakfast spot! I got the breakfast burrito without eggs or meat and it was still excellent. My partner got a little caprese baguette and said it was delicious. I also had a cup of the Organjc French Roast coffee and it was really good! The staff were also really kind. Would go back read more

From the friendly smiles and warm welcoming from the pour of the expresso till the hand off Sunny's was nothing less of a delightful experience. With a homey and relaxed atmosphere and what seems and endless amount of mouth watering pastries. But what stole the show for me was an unprecedented sign "eggs Benedict " a new special only during the weekdays in preference to the locals . The rich and delicate hollandaise sauce was topped with fresh cracked pepper and a dab of sprouts . Accompanied by a homemade vinaigrette and mixed green salad hands down made the visit all that memorable. Next time you think about coming to Sunny's keep an eye out for the sign displayed at the register, I know I will ,till next time Sunny's . read more

Who doesn't like to be called "Sweetie" while he's ordering--by just a really genuinely kind person. I'd go back for that alone. But that and the dogs, and the owner thanking us for coming, and the quirky (in the best way), whimsical cafe made for a really memorable experience. Add to that really good food, and it's a perfect café. It was our first time there. We learned bout it from an article in Edible Monterey Bay. There are a lot of excellent cafes on the Monterey Peninsula, but add in the food and the service, and there's nothing really quite like it, or at least that does it so well, that we've seen. We started with coffee, a piece of frittata and an almond croissant. All three were remarkably good--possibly the best almond croissant I've had. The frittata was so good, we ended up ordering more to take home with us--and a delicious bagel thoughtfully prepared to produce the perfect proportions and the perfect freshness. We'll be back--again and again. read more

Oh my goodness, we cannot say enough good about this place! First of all, best almond croissant ever. Secondly, really seriously good coffee. Thirdly, there are so many wonderful savory items to choose from! When I was looking online, I almost didn't try it because I didn't see things like frittata and quiche listed. They have quite a nice selection and everything is homemade. read more

Solid-ass sandwich. Solid-ass coffee. Solid-ass service. Impromptu stop and glad to have landed on this gem.

Such a gem! We stumbled upon Sunny Bakery Cafe while driving from Carmel Valley to Big Sur and decided to stop for breakfast. I immediately loved that they were dog friendly, and the barista even gave my dog a biscuit. The interior had colorful wooden furniture, wall art, and a cozy ambiance. I ordered a Dirty Chai Latte, which was tasty and not overly sweetened, and the open-face Bagel with Lox. The bagel itself was just ok, but tasted great as a sandwich with the cream cheese, lox, onions, and capers. It was also so filling, I ended up taking half of it to-go. I also got a Blueberry Scone for the road, which was great. The blueberries in the middle were so tasty, and the dough had the right level of sweetness. Service was quick and so friendly/welcoming! Overall, I would happily return to try more items. read more

Super delicious. Loved everything I've tried. Staff is super nice! Cute location with a chill vibe.

Sunny's has the best people working with their sunny dispositions and beautiful sunny smiles. And the food is delicious, couldn't get much better than a cup of good coffee and an almond croissant:) read more

We ate at Sunny Bakery twice last weekend and the coffee and food were delicious. The service was prompt and the staff were helpful and knowledgeable. We ate indoors since it was a little chilly out but they also have some outdoor seating. I enjoyed a sugar free hazelnut soy latte and a soy mocha. I always appreciate having options for nondairy milks and some sugar free syrup choices for coffee house beverages. The frittata with goat cheese and artichoke was delicious and filling. On my second visit I had the ham and egg bagel with plenty of fluffy scrambled eggs. The muffins and jumbo cookies were delightful. My husband enjoyed his burrito but he thought the ingredients could have been distributed a bit more evenly in the tortilla. It came with a side of salsa and sour cream. If we get back to the Carmel Valley area again we'd definitely go there again. It's a lovely little village. read more

We live locally and like the local vibe. The pastries and bagels are delicious. The person at the counter (the owner) needs to find someone to work the counter that is friendly and not put out when a customer asks for something. I asked for more coffee as the self serve coffee was empty. I was told that she would make more when she had time. The restaurant was full of people that wanted more coffee (I was not the only one that asked). The owner seemed like they did not want to be there. Needs to find someone to be the friendly voice of her business. read more

Formerly wild goose (2 stars). If you haven't been here since the new ownership, then you're in for a treat when you come. All the pastries are home made, fresh and delicious. The service is super friendly and the coffee is always hot. The exact opposite of how it used to be. It's really a pleasure to stop by here. It is finally a real bakery and coffee house. The one that carmel valley deserves. Bravo!!!! read more

So good. Baked goods are fresh and so yummy. The service is fast and the prices are fair. Can't wait to go back.

I got a vanilla bean iced latte and it was probably the best coffee I have ever had. So yummy, I drank the whole thing in about 5 minutes. Definitely recommend!! read more

Miss the old Wild Goose cafe already. Pastries are still good, the lad at the counter is as grumpy as the old French owner, but the coffee is terrible, cappuccino we had this morning was not drinkable. Too bad. read more

The croissant breakfast sandwich is absolutely delicious and filling!! So good I went back 2 days in a row to get it togo! The egg is cooked perfectly and the cheese and ham is so good the picture does not do it justice as I grabbed it Togo but it's so delicious!! The mocha is made with love as you can tell and is so good. The staff is so friendly and a cute little place in the village!! Seriously though try the breakfast croissant you won't be disappointed read more

A wonderful relaxing bakery! The food is excellent and a perfect place to hang out and relax. The bakery has a local feeling which is hard to find these days. The new owner has made this place welcoming as well as providing delicious goodies and coffee. A must stop when in Carmel Valley! Everyone working there is smiling and welcoming! There is also very nice artwork on the walls which rotates often. Stop by and relax for a cup of coffee with friends or pick up yummy food from pastries to sweet little baguette sandwiches for your home or a picnic. Love this place! read more

Sunny Bakery is everything what a small town bakery has to offer. Very reasonable prices for its coffee and freshly baked goods. Coffee is good with your usual choices. A mix of locals and tourists filing in steadily, very cozy and relaxing. Service at the counter is quick and friendly. Ample parking and indoor sittings. We will have to find an excuse to return to Carmel Valley for a visit. Enjoy .. read more

I first came here in late 2022. Since then the decor, menu, and the ownership of the cafe has changed. Nice vibe and tastefully done. Highly recommend trying out this place on your next Carmel Valley trip. read more

I enjoy this sweet little bakery, they have delicious croissants and house made granola parfaits with apricots. It's always nice to take home a delicious jar of house made jam. Sunny Cafe's walls feature local art work which changes frequently. read more

This cute little bakery has the most wonderful raspberry scones. It's a nice little meeting place for coffee in the village.

Wonderful customer service I had Chloe serve me upfront. She was extremely accommodating and helpful to find me the perfect sweet treat. Special mention for the matcha latte she whipped up for me. Everything was perfect I commend the service. Mucho thanks! :3 read more

Food and service were wonderful! I realized the next day that I forgot my favorite jacket...they kindly held it for me. This place is awesome!!! read more

we are local, and Sunny's is our splurge when we want to reward ourselves. Everything we've tried there has been spot-on; and we like the helpful youth serving us with a smile. What really knocks me out is the Almond Croissant! I have tried many, but Sunny's is perfection: delicious flaky pastry, tasty almond fill, not too sweet; but most of all, perfectly baked to an almost caramelized exterior. It's almost crunchy, and never soggy and flaccid like others. Sunny's has spoiled me; I don't need to try another almond croissant again. read more

We visited this cafe twice during our 4 days in Carmel Valley. This cafe was close to our hotel, and my husband needs his morning coffee/pastry so we checked this place out. And i'm glad we did because all of the pastries were delicious! We tried so many. The blueberry scone, blueberry muffin, lemon pound cake, coffee cake, chocolate chip walnut cookie, sugar brioche, and caprese sandwich. I never have high hopes when I try new places in the area, but this cafe was super cute and had great pastries. We bought a box of pastries to bring back with us. Looking forward to coming here often on our future trips. read more

Wonderful bakery cafe in the beautiful Carmel Valley village. Wonderful new owner. The entire café is changed since the owner took over. It's quite lovely. All of the staff are extremely nice. The coffee is good. The baked goods are outstanding. Really nice ambience. Please check it out. read more

We had wonderful homemade quiches and coffee for breakfast. On the expensive side but well worth it.

Great bagel, avocado, tomato, cream cheese, coffee , blueberry muffin. Just a bit loud, but there are outside tables.
