    Sunrise Bistro on Johns Island, SC, is a delightful and cozy spot perfect for breakfast or brunch. This charming café offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, making it a good place to start your day or enjoy a leisurely meal. The menu is full of delicious, hearty options, from classic breakfast dishes like delicious open faced Mediterranean omelets, eggs Benedict is very good and classic breakfast choices. The French toast sandwich is yummy. Their specialty coffee drinks and fresh juices pair perfectly with any meal. We have only been there a few times for breakfast but they pull a good brunch/lunch crowd. The service is friendly and efficient, making every visit feel special, and the relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere creates a perfect place to gather with friends or enjoy a peaceful morning alone. If you're on Johns Island and looking for a top-notch spot to enjoy breakfast or brunch, Sunrise Bistro is a must-visit. With its delicious food, welcoming vibe, and top-tier service, it's no wonder locals and visitors alike keep coming back! Only reasons a 4 out of 5 is its almost always crowded, no good place to wait outside, parking very limited. Note their hours: Mon Closed Tue 7 AM-2:30 PM Wed 7 AM-2:30 PM Thu 7 AM-2:30 PM Fri 7 AM-2:30 PM Sat 7 AM-2:30 PM Sun 9 AM-1 PM

    One of my favorite breakfast places on the island! The island can be a hit or miss as we found out earlier! Our problem is we expect great food and service! This place doesn't disappoint! It has bed areas 4 years since we have visited! Portion size is smaller and prices are a little higher! This place is best deal on the isle! I had the chicken fried steak benne! I order sunny side up but one egg was over easy! I still enjoyed it ! My son got scrambled eggs and sausage biscuits and gravy! My bride got a ope face tomato and cheese toast thing with a side of collards ! Ambiance was excellent and staff was on the money! Bathrooms are funny and weird! There is an entrance and exit! Coffee is self serve! Always a credit card fee!

    From the moment we stepped in, we felt welcome. The service was great. So many people stopped by to ask how we were doing. Everyone was pitching in. The food, oh my! I got the firecracker shrimp and grits with herbed bread. Outstanding! My husband got the turkey sandwich with Cajun fries and was equally happy with his dish, but I still think mine was far superior to his. I mean, shrimp and grits!

    A great little "locals" bistro offering comfort food. Sunrise Bistro is a good meal stop on your way to "the islands" and/or Wadmalaw Island/Rockville ~ as the cafe serves breakfast all day and lunch daily. The service is swift and attentive and the staff is always in constant motion making sure everyone is happy. Portions are large so you will leave very satisfied and happy! This morning I ordered the yogurt parfait - "deconstructed" with an additional bowl of fruit. The melba sauce that accompanies the yogurt parfait is delicious - rich texture and tart and not too sweet. ....and is a nice added touch. You can't go wrong with the open-face omelets ~ and many choices ~ which was the additional dish at our table. The self serve coffee bar is a great feature here. The coffee carafes are continuously replaced when empty so the three selections of coffee are guaranteed to be fresh and hot. There is plenty of parking in front of the restaurant. For good "home cooking" that tastes like Mom's~ I would recommend Sunrise Bistro.

    my friend, Clark - She just ran a race and then ate here - she's very happy! So yum! Potatoes get in my tummy!

    Food literally so fire! Come here! Service awesome! Ambiance super vibey! Got the Breakfast Burrito and I almost cried because it was so good! Everyone smiled and was happy.

    Visited Sunrise Bistro today. Service was fast, and the food was excellent. I had the Mediterranean Omelet with herb toast. It was delicious. I would recommend this place! Keep in mind, it's only open until 2:00 and 1:00 pm on Sundays. Closed on Monday.

    So happy to have found this gem in John's Island, SC. The service was friendly and offered the complimentary coffee of our choice at the coffee bar! Our server was kind hearted and recommended the shrimp and grits, which was amazing! My tastebuds were delighted! The chicken biscuit n gravy was good as well.

    This time we went with friends and things were better. The crab cake was a bit slushy but better than tasting bad which it did not.

During the day they have a breakfast/brunch style menu. And they have a great selection of drinks. I had the Italian Caesar Sandwich with chips and it was excellent!

It's a truly lovely, relaxed setting--perfect for sitting down, catching up, and enjoying a slower pace. While the service was kind, it felt a bit less attentive than expected, especially since the restaurant wasn't very busy. We found ourselves needing to ask for a few basics like place settings and salt and pepper, which took away slightly from the overall experience. As for the food, there were definitely some highlights. The scrambled eggs were impressively fluffy and generous in portion--closer to four eggs than two--and the peach jam was a standout touch. The sourdough could have been toasted a bit more, and the bacon was slightly undercooked for my preference. The avocado toast, while creative, had quite a few competing flavors on top that overpowered the simplicity I was expecting. Our cappuccinos were average, but still enjoyable. Overall, Heyday has a lot going for it with its beautiful atmosphere and laid-back charm. With a bit more attentiveness in service and small refinements in the food, it could easily become a favorite. I'd absolutely return, especially for the ambiance and a relaxed place to meet and chat.
