Check out all of these up-charges
Greg B.

I really struggle with Sunshine Breakfast Bar and here's why. The food is always top notch and amazing. What often ruins my experience (like today) is all of the secret up charges. It's not always the wait staff's fault because these are defaults programmed into their POS system when your order is keyed in. Today I was offered to add cheese, onions and peppers to my house potatoes. Take a look at the attached receipt...$3 in total up-charges for a very meager sprinkle of onions and peppers (I wish I had taken a picture of that)! At no time did the waitress disclose the up charge for those items. Same thing with my latte...up charge for making it a vanilla latte. I purposely don't come here as often as I would like to because 80% of time I feel leaving more fleeced by up-charges versus satisfied by the meal. It's really a short term business philosophy if you ask me: short term profits over long term sustainability from happy, loyal, repeat customers returning on a more frequent basis. However, that's the broader theme in our society today...how much $$ can we squeeze (fleece) out of someone. There are so many other good breakfast places that don't employ up-charges to this degree. This place has a local family run feel until you get the bill...then it feels like you're on the opposite side of some shark in a suit working for a private equity firm. As much as I love the food, I'm done punishing myself. Won't be going back.

Menu

Saturday morning visit, first visit. Party of two, no wait outside, but there was a wait inside. The inside was stuffy so we sat outside. The misters made outside seating manageable in August heat. The service was good. The food was ok. The potatoes were lacking flavor. The cheese ratio on the croissant sandwich was overpowering. The middle of the chicken fried steak was overly chewy. It's not a bad option if you're North Phoenix.

I love the Sunshine breakfast Bar! The service is always top notch, everyone smiles, makes eye contact, and speaks. The food is always fresh with beautiful plating. These photo I posted are unedited because the natural light just spills into the restaurant so perfectly. 10/10

Boozy breakfast
Sarah S.

My mom and I enjoyed a nice breakfast at Sunshine Breakfast Bar. They have quite an extensive menu with all the breakfast items and spirits! I had a mimosa flight. There are so many options for flavors. I got the prickly pear, the blueberry, the mango and the strawberry rose. My favs were blueberry and prickly pear. It is kind of pricey at $20 but it was worth it especially the presentation. Both my mom and I got sweet breakfast. My mom got the pancakes and I got the waffles with strawberries and cream. They do have real maple syrup for an extra $2 and it is not a good amount so that was annoying. The pancakes were average, on the sweet side. The waffle was good and fluffy. The service was also great too and parking was easy. We sat on the patio since it wasn't too hot and they have electric shades if needed to block out the sun. Overall it was pretty good.

Brioche French Toast
Raquel H.

Given the reviews I was expecting some amazing food and service but to be honest everything was meh. While everything looks beautiful, the flavors were lacking. The French toast was super dry even with all the fruit and whipped cream. The fruit was good and fresh. The coffee tasted burnt and the white chocolate mocha tasted like warm milk. The restrooms were clean and staff was ok. Our waitress just seemed annoyed to be there. With so many other options, I don't think I will return. The burger had little flavor but could use seasoning.

Breakfast burrito
Teena M.

Susie was our server on Sunday and she was so very kind and efficient. The wait to be seated was long but totally worth it! The food was incredible and didn't take long at all to get our order. The hostesses were very kind as well. The restaurant was clean and the vibe was good. Really appreciated the service environment and good food.

Huevos Rancheros
Sherika J.

Happened to stumble across this place well out. Very lively place!! Started with the Lemon Ricotta pancakes, looked super tasty, but the flavor and texture of pancake wasn't for me. Ordered the Huevos Rancheros without chorizo. This was so hearty!! I loved it!!

Pancakes
L M.

Went for breakfast with family member. Service was very good. Got coffee right away. We decided to each get a dish and share. I got the chicken fried steak breakfast. 2 eggs, toast, potatoes, the chicken fried steak tho slightly over cooked was huge and delicious. Loved the sausage gravy on top. Just a huge, too much food. Thank goodness I was giving half up to my sister. She had pancakes. Very large buttermilk pancakes. They too were tasty. A great place for breakfast.

Came back Sunday on our way home and again completely happy with everything

Visiting our son, searches for a restaurant that would satisfy everybody's pallet and nutritional needs. From the moment we were sat down, and reviewed the menu, we felt at home. We have our health, nuts, meat, and potatoes, eaters, and just all around different pallets. This place did not disappoint! From the oatmeal to the brioche French toast, to the chorizo breakfast burrito, and their bacon and egg platter!. Portions were perfect, they did not skimp on the fruits for the oatmeal, orange juice freshly squeezed. Service was great! They were busy we had to join the waitlist, but we're seated without any issues within the time window that the waitlist provided. We loved it so much. We're going back today Sunday before we actually drive back home! Great job to the owners and the staff Kelly was our waitress yesterday and we'll see who we get today. Thank you guys for making our visit a memorable one Im a breakfast guy although my family is not yet we all were happy with choice and quality of food Lastly the place was nice decorated, both inside and outside. Misters on to keep you cool in the patio as-well.

Large dining area (with more seating on patio)

My wife and I joined our friends for brunch today, and they suggested the Sunshine Breakfast Bar as a new option. We were able to go onto Yelp to place ourselves on the waitlist in advance, and then we headed out there a bit later with a minimal wait. After checking in with the host stand upon arrival, we found ourselves on the covered patio a few minutes later. The parking, however, was a bit more challenging to find, but the further back we drove in the complex, the more open spaces were there. The Sunshine Breakfast Bar has a nice breakfast/brunch menu and a menu also for those wanting lunch. They are open daily from 7 AM to 2 PM. The restaurant is also now open (or so I think) at a new location in Tempe on Baseline. When signing up for the reward club, we were asked for our birthday; I assume there will be some sort of birthday freebie or deal when the time comes. You can also sign in on their website to learn about offers and see your profile. When I first logged in last night, it said I was a member since 2018, so I'm assuming that this restaurant got its member list from another restaurant at one point since today was my first visit there. The other highlights for our meal today were that we received fast service, the food was very tasty, and they have a dog-friendly patio. I ordered the Classic Pancake which consisted of two sweet cream pancakes topped with butter, syrup on the side, and sprinkled with powdered sugar. My wife ordered a Create Your Own Omelette, which provided us three eggs and a choice of 1 cheese item plus any 3 veggie or meat options. She chose cheddar cheese, tomatoes, and onions. Her meal also came with homestyle potatoes and bakery style sour dough toast. We split both meals in half so that we both could try two dishes. We loved both meals! You can go to https://www.sunshinebreakfastbar.com and enter your e-mail address or phone number on the "Become a VIP" pop-up window. You can also sign up with your Facebook or Google account. Signing up will give you updates on exclusive events, secret menus, special offers/discounts, loyalty rewards & more. Also on the website, you can find their menu, order items online, catering options, another place to join their waitlist, and more. We may just be hooked, so we'll plan on going back again soon!

Been multiple times. Got food. Coffee and drinks are amazing. They have indoor and outdoor seating with misters/fans. The servers are friendly, check back on you and prompt. Hard to beat that. The inside is a bright color. Booth or 1/2 booths with chairs.

Huevas rancheros
Nancy W.

It's been year and we came back again for breakfast. We're on the way back to CA. Vanilla Lattes. Kids breakfasts and I had the really good biscuits and gravy, and Anber had the eggs Benedict. She liked it but she likes bacon and sliced tomato on hers. And it was not on the menu. We like this restaurant and will be back again in 2026. Parking is limited. It's a small strip mall. Also something in the restaurant by the kitchen smells of sewer as you Walk to the restrooms now and that's kinda gross., idk why.

Cinnamon Roll
Charlie L.

A couple of years on, this is still my favorite breakfast place. I've settled in a rotation of my favorites. Someone suggests we meet for breakfast, I say let's go to Sunshine. There are a couple of servers here who are phenomenal and I'm willing to wait a little longer to be seated in their sections. Most recent visit was a birthday breakfast and I got a free cinnamon roll which was huge and delicious. It's a bit noisy inside and always bustling so keep that in mind. The decor is cheerful and bright. This place is hoppin' on weekend mornings so plan accordingly.

Super cute way to be greeted!

I'd like some soup options to feel like I'm getting something more nourishing once in a while. In terms of beverages, I try to avoid drinking alcohol and soda nowadays. It just doesn't agree with my body like it used to. It would be great if they could add some kombucha options (GT's or Humm) or any of the new apple cider vinegar based sodas or probiotic sodas. They'd probably get more business from me if they just improved the menu. I'm usually already there for the games - just please consider people who are trying to be a little healthier when developing your menu!

We ordered the lobster sliders to split and they were great. The order comes with three sliders, and each one was generously filled with chunks of lobster. I also loved the addition of diced tomato and avocado, which added texture. The sliders were a good size. We added a side of truffle fries, which unfortunately fell flat. They looked like regular fries and, while they did have some truffle flavor, they were missing the Parmesan cheese and seasoning that typically make truffle fries stand out. They were okay, but a bit disappointing. We had a nice lunch. The only downside was the price. For one appetizer, one lunch entrée, fries, and one cocktail the total came to over $75, which felt a little steep for lunch. That aside we loved the sliders and would order them again and we always order the Bang Bang Shrimp when we're there.

There is service, and then there is hospitality…read more Service is taking an order, delivering a drink, clearing a plate and doing everything expected of you. Hospitality is noticing. Last night at Humble Oysters & Bubbles was one of those rare reminders of what genuine hospitality actually looks like. Humble Bistro and Humble Oysters are close to our home, so we visit both fairly often. We decided on dinner last minute and originally walked into Humble Bistro because my wife loves their Caesar salad with the crispy Brussels sprouts. And admittedly, it really is that good. There was about an hour wait, so we walked next door to Humble Oysters instead. My wife ordered a salad there, but barely touched it. Chef Jorge, who I have seen countless times walking through the restaurants, talking with guests and checking on tables, noticed. That part matters. We didn't complain. We didn't ask for anything. He simply noticed. He came over and asked if everything was okay. We laughed and explained that she had really wanted the Caesar from next door, but we didn't want to wait an hour for a table. Five minutes later, Chef Jorge walked over to the bar carrying that Caesar salad from Humble Bistro. No request. No production. He just did it. And somehow, that wasn't even the first example of hospitality that evening. Earlier, I ordered a glass of wine they had unfortunately run out of. Instead of the bartender returning empty-handed and asking me to pick something else, she came over with another bottle and offered me a taste. I ultimately decided I wanted a cocktail instead. Her response? She poured me half a glass of the wine anyway and essentially said, "Sip on this while I make your cocktail." Such a small gesture. Yet somehow those are the ones you remember. Then, to finish the evening, owner Tim stopped by. What could have been the obligatory owner "How was everything?" turned into a genuine 15-minute conversation. And that's when everything made sense. Hospitality like this doesn't happen accidentally. When it radiates from the owner, to the chef, to the bartender, to the rest of the staff, you're seeing culture. Restaurants spend enormous amounts of time trying to teach hospitality. But the best hospitality rarely feels taught. It feels instinctive. It's noticing the untouched salad. It's bringing something from the restaurant next door without being asked. It's pouring someone a little wine while they wait for their cocktail. It's an owner taking 15 minutes to genuinely talk with the people sitting at his bar. Food gives you a reason to visit a restaurant. Hospitality gives you a reason to return. Last night reminded me just how powerful the difference can be.

It's their take on bruschetta, although I'd describe it more as a flatbread. It comes topped with honey smoked salmon, jalapeño cream cheese, red onion, crispy fried capote capers, chili oil, lemon, and parsley. The flavors were good, especially the honey smoked salmon, but unfortunately it had very little jalapeño cream cheese. Without it, the flatbread was a little dry. I also would have loved a little more chili oil and lemon. The cream cheese would have added the richness it needed. Thankfully, our other dishes were great. We ordered the Smorgasbord, which is consistently fabulous, and split the Humble Caesar, one of our all-time favorites. Those two dishes never disappoint. Humble Bistro continues to be one of favorites. If I order The Kosher again I would ask they make sure and add cream cheese.
