Sunrise Inn is a small, cozy breakfast spot with a warm, old-school diner feel. It's intimate and welcoming. We were greeted quickly, and although seating took a moment despite open tables, service overall was pretty fast. Food: The Country Platter was the better of the two platters. It came with hashbrowns layered with chicken-fried steak, gravy, cheese, and scrambled eggs. The gravy was underseasoned with an off consistency, and the portion felt small for the $16 price. The cinnamon roll included was dry and slightly hard, unfortunately--I was expecting something warmer and softer. The Sunshine Platter was similar but with pork sausage. Overall, it was just okay, though the two thick slices of buttered sourdough toast with strawberry jam were really good and the highlight of the dish. The Kids Strawberry & Banana Pancake with Eggs was pretty much the most solid choice. The pancake was soft, buttery, and very good, with generous toppings. Coffee: The coffee was extremely light and lacked strong flavor. We stopped drinking them, actually. Service: Service was quick and great. Despite the small, busy space, our waitress was attentive and friendly. Overall: Not the best, but a pretty decent spot for a Sunday breakfast. We left full and satisfied with the service. read more

The food is less than mediocre, service is slow. Terrible coffee. I will not return.

When you are looking for the hidden jewels in any new town for a breakfast treat you look for the old school diners. In talking with people in the area there were about four places they mentioned. One, the Sunrise Inn, was mentioned often. I noticed it driving down 12th, strip mall, faded sign dated looking. It looked perfect. It took a few days to get over there and try it out. I walked in and all I could think was, "I hit the bonanza". Kitschy signs, a worn counter with stools, tables of all sizes strewn about and a seasoned wait staff that knew what they were doing. The menu for breakfast is dense with all the classics you can imagine from eggs to biscuits and gravy to pancakes and french toast, and even more! It is a lot to wade through, but I finally decided on the big biscuit breakfast. One huge split biscuit with sausage patties, scrambled eggs and gravy draped over the top. It also came with hash browns. While I was waiting for the order to get to me I paid close attention to the wait staff and the customers. Many people that walked in were greeted by name, most sat down and did not even need to look at a menu. This place was so classic! The food came pretty quick and was steaming hot. There was also no skimping on the amount of food. The biscuit was so light and fluffy, the sausage was not your typical machine pressed patty, this was sausage pressed flat on the grill almost like a smash burger. The eggs were fluffy, and the gravy was top notch. The hash browns were cooked perfectly. Yep, since I am here for a few more weeks this will be a breakfast staple for me. They are only open from early morning to 3pm, so they do one thing, and they do it well. The wait staff was so friendly and efficient to watch work it was mesmerizing. read more

I love this place! It's rare that I eat an entire plate but man oh man, I polished off the entire omelette, hash browns and toast! I absolutely love the classic blue coffee mugs that keep your coffee hot and the staff that tops you off if they notice you're getting low. I'm so glad I found this little nugget. The classic ambiance and seasoned wait staff coupled with excellent cooks and kitchen staff make this place a Gem. I look forward to eating here again very soon. read more

They got very good food fast service The meals come to you fast and friendly people with big smiles if you go home hungry from this place it's your fault read more

I love this long standing all American family restaurant in Nampa. Service has always been too notch for me. Unfortunately, they are only open until 3pm, since Covid. But, you can get dinner anytime of day, or breakfast, or whatever you want. read more

Sunrise Inn - Chicken Fried Chicken with mashed potatoes, white gravy, and fruit. I had already eaten my salad. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Nampa, Idaho

Traditional Americana diner. Food is always good and the service is good too. The only thing that needs improvement is the building itself. They could use a fresh update to the flooring, walls and lighting read more

I recommend the sunrise inn Nampa location for food, friendly people, and it's clean. They are trying hard to keep your business. It's a nice homey place. Nothing fancy, typical small town diner. Seems to have split from the other Sunrise Cafes. Food is typical diner food. Bacon and eggs, omelettes, pancakes, chicken fried steak, burgers, etc. Large menu. They are not open for dinner anymore which is too bad. Everything is pretty much how you expect it. Good and filling. I liked the chicken fried steak and gravy. Prices are in the ballpark with other places in Nampa such as Honker's, IHOP, Shari's. If you're looking for a good breakfast or lunch in South Nampa, Sunrise may be the only non fast-food choice. read more

Our waitress was Great, The Food was very Good. We will be return Customers A good Breakfast spot with many returning Customers. read more

This is not a relaxing experience for a Sunday breakfast. Waitress running like a chicken with head cut off. Trying to keep up with everyone but it makes for a very stressful experience. As for food, it's mediocre ...hash browns are frozen and tasteless, same with sausage . Coffee was good! Our last time to go there ! read more

We went here for breakfast for the first time on Sunday morning. The inside was cute and very farmhouse like. The place was packed and did not seem to have enough staff to keep up with the amount of patrons. They advertise as being family and kid friendly but didn't even have a kids menu for us or any type of color pages etc.. I honestly am not hard to please and very understanding in most situations, but the experience was just that bad. The food was mediocre at best but the lack of service was the real downfall. read more

Been a favorite chicken fried steak spot for 25 years ! Service is great and you feel comfortable. Homey.

It's dirty , it's like a blast from the past . Same seats and tables the restaurant had 25 years ago . (My opinion) Like grandmas dated house that refuses to update or remodel anything . I wish the south side of nampa had some better restaurants read more

The breakfast was passable--but the service and ambience are bad. The interaction between the wait staff and the kitchen is bad, orders lost or incomplete, food returned because it was cold, grumpy waitress, and what felt like a contest between the busboy and the dishwasher to make the most noise. Cook not wearing head covering. Basically an experience I don't care to repeat. read more

Great food, great staff, reasonable prices, good size menu, recommended eats!!! Masks are required walking to your seats and when moving throughout the restaurant read more

Just moved from Boise to Nampa two months ago and we needed to find a new "Go-to" breakfast place. We got a winner on the first try! Food: I ordered the corn beef hash with eggs over easy, hash browns and one biscuit and gravy. The corn beef hash was delicious. Very flavorful and juicy but with the edges fried enough to get that crunch. The gravy for the biscuit was good and proper. It wasn't remarkable but was delicious. I would order this again. There was plenty of food. I saw a lot of people bringing leftovers home, and there was a lot of "to go" orders being processed. Covid: Every other table was empty and the waitresses had masks on. Each table was rigorously cleaned between guests. I highly recommend this place for your next casual breakfast outing! read more

We have been loyal customers of Sunrise Inn for many years. I love everything I have ever ordered here but one day my husband ordered their Chicken Fried Steak and I took a bite and it was love at first bite. It's nice and crispy and seriously takes up most of the plate. After that visit it wasn't unusual to see us there a couple nights a week. Also a favorite is their Chicken Tortilla soup. Yum... I'm getting very hungry just writing this. I love their salads and 1000 Island dressing. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is that they have changed their hours of operation. They no longer are open for dinner so we have not been there for 6 months or more. Instead of closing at 7 they close at 3 now and with our schedules we cannot get there by 3:00. I'm so disappointed because I'm craving their Chicken Fry. Due to not being able to eat their CFS I've started some experimental taste testing in my own kitchen to replicate their recipe and I'm pleased to say I think I nailed it. Maybe not 100%... but certainly 95% Now... gotta start on that Chicken Tortilla soup!! read more

Had breakfast here, staff was decent, food was really good, minus the bacon being way overdone.. Will return, just hope bacon is better next time. read more

Very good food, we want enjoyed the California scramble (great guacamole on top) and the veggie omelet. The coffee was very good and fresh and service was quick and polite. Nice little local eatery. Will come here again, great place to take family on a visit. read more

very good food. Very friendly staff Looks like a local favorite. Will eat here again

Can't beat a good breakfast here still or dinner for that matter. They don't offer much that I can healthfully eat but I tend to make due or I just work out all the more harder so I can splurge a little! The staff haven't changed and my grandparents really take to a few of them. I'm sure I'll be back on my next visit in April! read more

If you're ever wanting a dependably good breakfast and you don't wanna do the dishes.... this is your spot. Whether it's take out or dine in they get the job done. My wife loves the biscuits and gravy and my son LOVES the super fluffy pancakes. Thanks for always being there! read more

I ordered breakfast here while visiting in town. The country fried steak, with hash browns, eggs, and pancakes were good. The country fried steak was slightly too greasy for breakfast, but would have been palatable for a lunch or dinner. The portion sizes are decent and the wait time is fairly short. I would recommend this restaurant. read more

We've been here a few times over the years, and we've always had good country breakfasts here. Today I had the Cinnamon French Toast, and all I can say is "Yum". It was sooooo good! I love Cinnamon Toast, and I love French Toast, so I figured this was a safe bet for me, but when I started to taste it, this breakfast exceeded my expectations. Did I say Yum? Well, it was yummy! My wife also got the Cinnamon French Toast, and my son got blueberry pancakes and eggs. I enjoyed my breakfast so much, I forgot to ask them how theirs was. Since our plates were pretty much empty when we left, I think it is safe to assume that they enjoyed theirs as well. Another shock happened when we got the bill. When was the last time three people had breakfast for less than $25? Sweet! [ An optimist sees a glass as half full. A pessimist sees the same glass as half empty. An engineer sees the glass as twice as large as it needs to be. ] read more

Decent breakfast at a fair price. The service is good, the atmosphere is not that great. The seating and comfort level is low.

Went here with Iceman Sr last weekend - best breakfast in the TV, hands down. I highly recommend the biscuits and the bacon. So good. Definitely worth the trek to Nampa. read more

This is a must when we travel to Nampa. The food and service is outstanding. My favorite is the chicken fried steak. The weekend can be busy, but it is well worth the wait. read more

I came in for breakfast today the service was pretty great all of the food including eggs over medium were cooked perfectly. Great cinnamon rolls as well cooked perfectly not hard or dry at all, and this was on Easter. They always seem to have great food and service here. read more

Enjoyed breakfast with my good friend while I was in town. Food was yummy, as usual. Service was amazing. It was a busy place on a Saturday morning, with a parade going by, but still friendly and efficient. Sunrise Inn never disappoints. read more

Nope. Not coming back to the Sunrise. It took an over an hour for two sandwiches and two cokes to be brought to the table. Tasteless food and we came out smelling like the deep fryer. Maybe you could check to see if the exhaust fan is running. read more

We came here on a Friday late morning and had two small children. The waitress greeted us and took our drink orders nearly immediately. She was keen to the fact that our children (and all children?) had very little patience. She came back shortly, we ordered breakfast foods (Vegetable platter, pancakes, hash browns, and eggs.). The food came out quickly and was really delicious. The hash browns may be some of the best we've ever had. The waitress seemed very experienced and was very pleasant. Prices averaged about $9 per person. Would definitely recommend this for the cafe goer. read more

Typical diner-type breakfasts, hearty and quality is reliable. I'm giving 5 stars to this location because their cinnamon rolls are perfection, and they hire mature waitresses who work their butts off. read more

At first I was a little irritated because its seat yourself and for some god known reason people of a small party decide to take up the biggest table while leaving a big party to wait 20 minutes before they get seated in a small table that'll "get the job done". The service was good and fast though. The food was really great and I really enjoy how thick the bacon is. read more

This was the last breakfast in Idaho with the whole family. Sunrise is a little hole in the wall and it's pretty good. I got a chicken fried steak (my go-to breakfast choice), eggs over easy, hash browns, and a huge biscuit on the side. The gravy was super tasty and totally right. The biscuits came with a strawberry sauce that was a little too sweet. But the biscuit itself was light and fluffy. Our waitress was very good and totally on top of coffee duty. We were a party of 10 and she handled it with ease. This seems to be a pretty long standing establishment and I imagine it will continue to do well. Though their prices are slightly higher than other places I've been for similar types of food, what they put out is pretty solid and definitely well worth a go. read more

Great home cooking and a fantastic value. You won't leave hungry or broke. read more

You know that greasy spoon diner that has really good home cooked food? The one where the entire staff calls you "Hon"? This is that place. Generous portions at a low price. Staff is nice. Food is good. Breakfast served all day! read more

Stopped in for lunch today. Our server was Sarah and she was awesome! Super sweet and attentive. Our problem was that there was absolutely no air conditioning! It was sweltering. By the time we were informed of the problem, we'd already ordered our food and felt too guilty to just up and leave. Apparently the a/c has been out for a couple of days now. Why didn't the owners put up a sign so people would know what they're walking in to? Why not at least place box fans around the place? Nothing against the great staff, but we probably won't return. read more

Crappy service i ever had here. They older lady that is skinny was rushing me and my mom to get food. She rushed me so fast that I could not get everything i wanted. I wanted time to that about what i all want. Instead she asked me if I wanted french friends and she wrote it down without me saying anything. My mom couldn't even finish ordering. Also it wasn't even busy! I ended up having to get french fries and 2 bowls of chicken soup as the side. It made me sick because i had to much. read more

Wow! Just .... wow! Great service and the food is incredible. Started with potato soup that was out of this world, then pan fried chicken breast with sauteed mushrooms and cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy, and corn. I haven't had a meal this good away from home for a very long time. The chef/cook definitely has talent! Combine that with the fast and friendly service, and I can highly recommend this place to anybody and everybody. This is one place I will frequent regularly! read more

The food was good, with the exception the biscuit was a little on the dry side. Our server wasn't the greatest, I'm not sure I'll come back due to the fact it's not the cleanest inside read more
