Enjoyed an off day breakfast here at Sunny Street this past week. It's definitely one of your cozy diner places that you could come by multiple times a week for good coffee and breakfast. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Pancakes were soooo good. My friend got the PB&J ones and they were delicious. Be careful if you don't like sweet things! read more

I can only review their breakfast since that's the only thing I had, so far. What I can tell you is the people are very friendly and helpful. The restaurant is exceptionally clean and inviting. I've been here twice, once I had their Denver omelette with hash browns and toast. It was very good. Today I had the Big Bite breakfast. It consisted of two eggs over medium, sausage, a biscuit, and grits. Everything was delicious with the exception of the sausage. It's the same sausage you'll get a a Holiday Inn Express breakfast. This needs to be upgraded. read more

July 1025: came here for breakfast after rehab with my honey! See my good friend Pamela review of SSC. That is why we came here Very friendly staff, did not like the handicap parking available however that was not really important: it was the good, the nice service the low prices that got us here. Eggs Benedict great, wifey had some type of scrambled eggs. Our first time/ PAM we were not disappointed! She nailed it. I like locally owned too read more

Finally tried this place and we both enjoyed our meals. We stopped by on a Monday morning and ate breakfast. The place wasn't too crowded and we were quickly seated. Our server was friendly and the food came out fast. The pancakes were light, fluffy and delicious. The bacon, sausage and eggs were equally tasty. From the outside the place looks small, but inside there is plenty of seating with a diner vibe. read more

This place is very reminiscent of that hometown diner. Noticed a lot of regulars by how the staff knew them by name. The staff works together to take care of the customers. I ordered the country omelette with southern grits and sourdough toast. I absolutely loved the grits and toast. The grits tasted and had the texture of risotto and the sourdough was flavorful and soft with just a slight crunch on the outside. The omelette I wasn't too impressed with. It was salty and the taste just didn't marry well. It was topped with sausage gravy and in the inside had sausage and onions and peppers. It tasted like a Philly cheesesteaks but instead of roast beef it had sausage. Other than the omelette i really enjoyed this place. I would come back and recommend. read more

Came here for breakfast while in Huntsville for a wedding. Very large menu. Those who ordered omelettes enjoyed them. For pancakes, you can order full or half stack. I like to eat and my half stack of PBJ pancakes were awesome. Something I never had before. Coffee cups were always full as staff is very attentive. Prices very fair read more

I was taking my MIL and a dear friend out to lunch - I wanted somewhere close by and Sunny Street fit the bill. My MIL uses a walker and the handicapped spot was immediately in front of the door. I was able to leave the walker in the car and just help her in - if you've ever dealt with a walker you know how much this is appreciated. We were immediately seated and our waitress had our drink orders within minutes. Everything was great until we got our food. I had the half and half with a BLT and the strawberry salad. The BLT was mostly lettuce and I'm not kidding you, there was one strip of bacon cut in half. To top it off, the toast was a little burnt - just not good. The salad was a little better except for the unripened avocado and the candied nuts. They were almost dust - like it was the bottom of the container and that was just emptied onto the salad. My MIL had the half and half with soup and a grilled cheese. As she's not one to complain, I didn't realize until she was almost done that her sandwich was burned on the underside. I mean black burned. I don't know how she ate it. She also said the soup wasn't very good. I don't get her out as much as I should so I was extra disappointed that her lunch was so bad. Our friend had the turkey wrap and a bowl of fruit. The fruit looked wonderful and it was quite a big bowl. She didn't care for the wrap - she said the fillings were scant and she ended up picking off the extra tortilla. On the plus side, our server was great and the restaurant was quiet enough that my friend with hearing aids didn't have trouble hearing the conversation clearly. Sunny Street is almost walkable from my MIL's house (well, not walkable for her but really close by) and it would be nice if it could be our "go-to" restaurant. It was just so disappointing that we won't be back. read more

Food and service was great. They have good options to pick from on their menu. I recommend this place for breakfast and / or lunch.

Busy place that is doing their best to protect us and them from COVID-19; however, some of the patrons were not wearing a mask and Sunny Street Cafe was not enforcing them to have one; although, at the door it says you must wear one. The person that seated us was not very friendly, Tanja? Our server was awesome, Amanda. She greeted us and advised us it was going to be a wait, they had a "full restaurant " We ordered blueberry pancakes w/o strudel or compote and the waffle, no powder sugar, and eggs a side of fruit and sausage. It took almost 1/2 hour to get the food. The food was good, nothing special, but good and our server was great, would I go back? Maybe read more

This was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had in my life. I ordered the Super Crispy Torta breakfast which is a seasonal menu item, the chef prepared my order grilled chicken instead of fried (Compliments to the chef.)

Parking: Large parking lot very packed and the other two businesses closed at 9:30am upon arrival. Ambiance: Old dinner style full of elderly listening to some stories of how great this place has been for years. Restaurant was packed out the door waited 20-25mins to get seated not to bad. Service: We were seated in a little room left of the restroom hallway. This is our first trip to this establishment since moving to Huntsville area, We had the pleasure to have waitress Amanda long time 12 year employee her and Hannna was doing an amazing job keeping everyone but us serviced. Food: Ordered the stuff biscuit and gravy, PBJ Time pancake and a Our Famous Hearty breakfast meal. Two orange juices and a chocolate milk along with ice waters. We had drank our juices and milk along with our ice waters was empty after both waitress walked around and offered all coffee, a few water, tea and sodas I raised my hand not once but twice before we was acknowledged and then seemed to be in the way after an hour and everyone who had been seated before and after us had ate I asked why and our waitress avoided the question so we left at this time it was 11:06am and called to discuss the matter with Glinda the manager at the time who's supposed to return a call and explain until them IHOP down the road delivered seating and pancakes within 20 minutes come on why this place is packed as well. read more

Great breakfast place. Home cooking, eggs, grits, toast, etc. I used to frequent this place when we still ran our huge transport company here in Huntsville, Madison, Decatur, Athens, etc. You can't miss breakfast and a good start to the day when working in the ground to air transport business. We transported pilots, flight attendants, and contract clients. Our taxi covered the general public. But hey, if you want a great breakfast pretty much anytime of the day? Go here. They'll hook you up for sure. (Great customer service, food is not greasy!) Great staff. Feels like breakfast home. Only they do the cooking when you miss breakfast or ran out of time. read more

A good breakfast place with a home cooked feel. Wonderful omelets and great service. There's always a wait so don't arrive starving. The place is clean and they have tempting muffins by the entrance. read more

Good little cafe/breakfast spot. Seemed like one server was managing all tables while the rest of the staff talked up the men sitting at the counter. Felt bad for her. Ordered hash and eggs, their corned beef hash is homemade, more potatoes than corned beef for my liking, but eggs cooked perfect and biscuit was solid. read more

Average breakfast location with a 15min usual wait time. The food was ok, with the hash browns being the worst. They were greasy and tasteless. My wife's bacon was so overcooked, it shattered like glass when she dropped it. There's plenty of parking, clean bathrooms, and the staff was attentive. There are better breakfast places in Huntsville, so it's up to you. Happy eats! read more

I like SSC. It's nothing fancy, nothing "New American Cuisine-ish," it is what it is a breakfast/lunch café. The staff are always fast, friendly, and helpful and sweet. I love that they offer lower cal/fat items such as the egg white omelet with fruit (Don't want toast? Check - they will sub extra fruit at no additional cost!) Turkey sausage comes with it and I know, that's not really that low in fat, but you could always triple up on the extra fruit and 86 the links. The coffee is standard Maxwell house or folgers and one price is an endless cup. It'll do the trick in a pinch. Their OJ is good event though it has pulp which is so gross. They'll offer you whatever you are drinking (no alcohol BTW) in a "to go" cup which is nice, too. Several times I've gotten a lunch item to go for a noon lunch at work. It seems like the last time I went with some kind of wrap, maybe tuna, with ((sigh)) a side of fruit. It was good. High school class mate Doug Hess's artwork adorns the walls and you can pick up his business card at the checkout and peruse his Alabama (RTR) original art online at your leisure. I think Sunny Street Cafe closes every day at 2 - like I said, a breakfast and lunch place. period. Do try SSC - the more senior and the yutes alike will be dining there and the friendly chatter is a nice change of pace. Don't expect elaborate dishes with purees, fancy presentation with watercress garnish, and table cloths. It's a café. read more

My partner has told me about this place because he use to work here a few years ago. We decided to go on Sunday morning for me to go try it out. It was pretty pack as any usual Sundays ,if u were to go to any restaurants to dine in.We only waited for a few minutes to be seated at a table. Since it was rainy and windy that day decided to drink a hot chocolate. Now the hot chocolate looked so delicious.It was in a mug with whip creamed swirled around it . Topped off with chocolate syrup . I could not wait to sip on it when the waitress was bringing it out to our table. The hot chocolate was hot but the whip cream on top of it definitely helps to cool it off . When sipping on it will be warm and will not burn the tongue. For the meal I ordered the pumpkin pancakes With Sunny-side-up egg, bacon,& hash browns Let me just say the Pumpkin Pancakes are to die for It was so amazing The pancakes were cooked to golden, fluffy perfection, then it's topped with a tres leches drizzle,& homemade cinnamon butter The butter was melting slowly from the warm pancakes I did not add any maple syrup to it Even though you are able to if you wanted too It was perfect the way it was tbh So so soooo amazing Definitely have to try it read more

Well, I pretty much HAVE to give this place five stars because I made it a point to go there two days in a row for breakfast! Their food is outstanding and the place is super clean! But, the service...WOW!!! From the moment you walk through the door you have sweetness poured all over you! The hostesses smile (at least the ones who aren't wearing masks) and are glad to see you. The waitresses are super friendly and attentive without being annoying. My coffee cup rarely emptied but the one or two times it did it wasn't 30s before one of them snuck up behind me with the coffee pot! I LOVE IT! The veggie omelette was better with the addition of feta but still good as offered. Their fruit side is the best I've seen in a restaurant and the biscuits and toast super good. If you are in Huntsville this is a must stop. read more

Visited with a friend for a late breakfast/brunch on Monday. We had a pleasant enough time. Sunny Street is right on the Huntsville-Madison border, as I think of it. It's a good drive for me but I was interested in trying something new and not a ton of local places are open on Mondays. So that's a bonus! I had the largest breakfast combo -- can't remember what it's called but it's like most other places' big breakfast meals: two eggs, your choice of meat, grits or hash browns, biscuit or toast, and a pancake or two. I chose bacon and hash browns, and my eggs were scrambled. The eggs were cooked to my liking, maybe a little on the runnier side for others. The bacon was really quite good, the right amount of crispness. I also liked the pancakes -- they were sweet, fluffy, and cakey, but not too much of any of those things. Unfortunately, my toast was forgotten and never got replaced. I also asked for my hash browns extra crispy, and they definitely weren't. My friend got the chicken fried steak. She didn't comment on it, but she did offer me a bite. I rejected it because I don't like the dish much, but I doubt it was terrible if she was willing to let me try. The gravy on it looked a little old, but she didn't complain, so who knows. Service was pleasant personality wise but a little on the slow side for how relatively non-busy it was. Price was a little higher than Waffle House, and given my Waffle House proclivity and how out of the way Sunny Street is, it probably won't be a super high priority pick for me in the future. That said, it's not a bad place to visit for a tasty bite for breakfast. read more

I'm visiting Alabama to attend a wedding. After a long flight, my sister and i wanted to stop somewhere for breakfast. We stumbled upon this place. We were greeted by a very nice hostess who sat us right away. Our server was very busy with other tables but still managed to be polite, attentive and friendly. Their sweet tea is delicious! Definitely recommend. I decided to get the cinnamon roll pancakes with a side of hash browns and sausage patties. If you have a sweet tooth, you'll really enjoy these pancakes. If not, i suggest ordering something else. But i love sweets so i enjoyed it. The hash browns didn't really have much seasoning but after adding salt and pepper, it tasted much better. read more

When I am in Huntsville /Decatur on a Sunday morning I come here for b-fast. I love breakfast it is my favorite meal of the day. So I love coming to this restaurant. A testament to their quality is that if you arrive at the peak time you will have a wait(30min.+). But it's worth it. I usually get their 'Big Bite' breakfast: eggs (over easy) w. bacon and hash browns. It's excellent the eggs are always perfect, so is the crisp bacon and crispy hash browns. They also have large omelettes with all types of fillings. There pancakes are delicious and large. They also bake their own muffins and cinnamon rolls. If you don't care for breakfast at lunch time they have a full lunch menu of sandwiches and entrees like spaghetti. Check the Sunny Street Cafe out for brunch any day of the week. Check out their menu online it's unbelievable. read more

My husband and I ate here for the first time and had a good experience. The place was hopping and we had a 20 minute wait time. The atmosphere reminded me of the 70s. My chicken wrap was good my husband's burger was good. Our waitress, Markita was very attentive and polite. We will be back to try other items on the menu. read more

Service was awesome! No issues there, everyone is very kind inside of the diner. Now for the food, it was very underwhelming, I ordered the chicken fried steak breakfast. The chicken tasted like very low quality food, hash browns were undercooked & tasted almost fishy. My wife ordered the Chicken & Waffles, the waffle came out EXCELLENT, but the chicken was over cooked, flakey (not the good flakey) & dry. My daughter ordered the Dino pancakes, she was not a fan, we had to send it back & replace it with one of the waffles. read more

I was so disappointed last Monday morning. My hubby and I really had a hankering for Eggs Benedict. So knowing how yummy there's was we excitingly ordered, to be told no English muffins, so no eggs Benedict. Wtf! There is a Kroger's across the street! Who runs the place!?!! The waitress was embarrassed. We sat across from the kitchen and were entertained by the cook and a waitress arguing during our entire meal! My hash browns and ham were obviously old. Both were crunchy. Yuck. I am not sure if we will ever return. I will definitely call to see if they have eggs Benedict first and request to sit in the back room. read more

We've been back many times since my initial review. Typical of Huntsville, Sunny Street has turned into a hit and miss. Our past few meals have been terrible. Probably won't be back to try again for a long time. But man was that first visit spot on. :( read more

Stopped in for breakfast today, my first time to the Sunny Street Cafe. Was around 7-30ish, not too crowded for a Sunday morning, but the place soon started to fill up as it became the 8 o'clock hour. I ordered the Bananas Foster Pancakes with a side of sausage patties. Pancakes were decent -- fluffy, with carmel drizzled on them. Sausage patties were very tasty. Katie, my server was very attentive. The meal itself was a bit pricey for breakfast, but overall, I was satisfied. I'd certainly come back, and I plan to bring my fiancee next time. read more
