Two locals favorites are Sunshine Café along with North bar and Grill. I had a really fun bunco party at the house. It was Kentucky Derby themed The best carrot cake in the Napa Valley is what I offered to my guests! I learned the carrot cake can be purchased. It's sold at the restaurant by the slice. I love the moist, spicy, coconut cake frosted with cream cheese icing. .Looking forward to continued good times at both restaurants. They are right next-door to each other. When you are in search of local favorites for eating good food, specialty drinks, Monday night burger specials, and on occasion live music these are the restaurants to visit The pastry chef rocks. read more

This place was super cute. We decided to visit because we did not want to do something generic during our stay in Napa. They were kid (and dog) friendly, served good food, ,and had a friendly staff. Would definitely go again. (And if you're curious I got the stuffed French Toast that was smothered in blueberries!) read more

This place was great. They played great music, I loved the art all around the restaurant, and the food was delicious. When we arrived there were lots of people waiting outside. We thought it would be a long wait. We were delighted to hear that it would only be about 25 minutes. We were seated within that time. The booths were extra long. I think they could have fit about six people in them. I loved their bright blue colors and the different breakfast art on the walls. The menu offers everything. You'll definitely find something that you like. I had a hard time deciding what to order, but I went with the eggs Benedict. My husband got the kitchen sink scramble. We ordered a side of biscuits because I can never resist biscuits. We were not disappointed. The biscuits were delicious as was everything else. I also elevated my breakfast potatoes to include truffle and mushrooms. It's a must do. It was so delicious. Friendly people, good service, cool music, and decor. It's a winner! read more

I haven't done a review in a minute, but this place needs to be bragged about, I had the prime rib eggs Benedict, with potatoes. MAN! Let me tell you ! My mouth sent me a thank you card, the flavor is amazing, PRIME RIB was tender, I literally cut it with a butter knife, the bread was soft and crunchy at the same time made fresh from panorama bakery made fresh everyday ( I know RIGHT!), it was buttery and soo Delicious , the addition of the avocado sent the flavor beyond any eggs Benedict I've had before, and if you follow me you know I order it often. The potatoes: the potatoes were savory as well, you could think it's just a potato dude calm down, NO I WON'T CALM DOWN, OK maybe I will I'm embarrassing my wife standing on the table right now ‍, but these once dirty ugly vegetable was magically transformed into a cube food for the gods! The flavor was something that made you eat slower to savor every bite, and when combined with the eggs Benedict give me a euphoric feeling that this place may be too good for me, don't get me wrong it very casual place, but the food "OMA GAUD!" They should require suit and ties . I live an Vacaville, would I drive 45 minutes for just a breakfast...NO, BUT for this one, oh yeah!! Smiling All the way, read more

I stumbled across Sunshine Cafe during my recent visit to Napa. I was looking for a place that was close to where we were staying and this spot was literally a short 3 minute drive away. When we arrived it was pretty empty but quickly filled up. I can tell it's the neighborhood go to. I ordered the sunshine scramble and subbed the eggs for egg whites for a $2 upgrade. I opted for potatoes as my side and wheat toast. The scramble was really good. We ended up going back a second time right before heading to San Francisco to catch our flight. During the second visit I ordered biscuits with a side of chicken sausage. The biscuits and jam was very good. Both tasted homemade. read more

Will definitely be back! The good is all freshly made (no frozen stuff).....hubby had the Chicken Fried Steak (flat steak, tasty seasonings, great hand breading), biscuits with choice of gravy and potatoes. I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken & Waffles. Everything was savory with great flavor profiles. Enjoyed a piece of coffee cake and had some of their homemade strawberry jam. So many menu options to choose from and the staff was right on top of everything. I think we found our Napa breakfast spot!! read more

Good food. If Annie suggest to you to get the homemade strawberry preserves, get it! It's worth the $1 extra and more! It's a nice spot and ample parking . read more

UPDATE! We were just in the Cafe for brunch and they have a special that deserves mention: Chicken Chorizo Skillet. It comes with house made tortillas and two eggs any style. This dish is next level delicious and worth a drive. If you delay and don't see it on the menu, ask for it. We need this to become a regular!! read more

We had a nice experience here. Food was absolutely wonderful. Service was prompt and professional, although perhaps slightly rushed and to-the-point, although personally I like that. There was no wait for a table, although it was reasonably busy for a weekday. I bet on weekends it's absolutely hopping! The breakfast quesadilla was delicious and my BF was happy with his huevos rancheros. The one thing I wasn't completely satisfied with was the coffee - not sure if it was just a bad batch, because some of the other reviews mentioned it was good, but I thought it was pretty bad. Not undrinkable, but for $11 for two cups, I would like it be at least be decent. It's not a cheap restaurant, but the food is great, the portions are sizable, and we are in Napa, after all. We'll be back for sure, but we'll skip the coffee, and you should, too :) read more

We came here for breakfast our last day in Napa. I had the huevos rancheros and it was fine. The food was fresh, the chips were crispy, my egg was cooked over medium and the beans and rice were good. Next time I'll try another dish. My friend had an omelette with potatoes, also good. We enjoyed the coffee as well. The servers were friendly and the space was crowded. read more

Amazing find! Saw it for years but never tried until now...loved the food and the service!

Loooove Sunshine Cafe! We came here after a hike and saw the great reviews and had to try it. The decor is so cute! And it's surprisingly big on the inside in addition to having a lot of outdoor seating. 10-15 minute wait on a weekend to be seated wasn't bad at all! The service was awesome and quick :) my friend got the meat lover omelette and I got a couple eggs and bacon. Cooked perfectly and tasted great. Definitely recommend. read more

A traditional American breakfast/lunch spot with big portions :) We had the chicken waffle, biscuits with gravy, and a quesadilla. Everything was tasty, with the waffle being particularly fresh and well-textured. Quesadilla was marked as hot dish, but it wasn't. The service was quick and efficient, and the outdoor seating was great. Also, there is available parking lot. read more

Cute little spot with farm vibes. They are quite busy. Wait staff was nice but they are so busy it's hard to be attentive. Mimosa wasn't sweet, Boozy hot chocolate was strong, so beware. Lol. Some of the best potatoes I've ever had. Biscuits were a bit hard and lacking flavor. Overall nice cafe. read more

Rainy days calls for brunch in a cozy space. That is exactly what Sunshine Cafe is. Now, don't be discouraged by the wait time, a good 20 or so but it's worth every bite. It has been awhile since I was last here but nothing has change. The quality of food is still as excellent as ever. My mother and I had a little brunch date. We ordered pancakes, (2) eggs any style and the chicken and waffles. The only comment I have is that the chicken on the chicken and waffles was a bit...herby for me? As in the spices just seemed sour to me. The waffles were amazing. We had asked for extra tea and one of the team members shared that it would cost extra. We asked another team member and they never mentioned any additional charges. We double checked the receipt at the end and no additional charges so there might be room for staff knowledge. Other than that, good experience and good food. read more

A return visit, and it didn't disappoint. The garden omelet was excellent and generous. This could come as an omelet or scrambled, which was a nice option. Excellent service even though it was a busy Saturday morning. read more

Excellent food & service!!! I had the fried chicken sandwich. Can't wait to go back!!!

I'll start with the positives -- the jam was absolutely amazing, and the coffee cake wasn't too shabby either. Those were definite highlights. Unfortunately, the service really brought the experience down. I expected it to be busy on a Sunday morning and was willing to give some grace, but the consistency just wasn't there. We waited 25 minutes to be seated, which is understandable, but once seated I would have expected better follow-through. * My eggs (ordered over medium) came out extremely runny. * Coffee didn't arrive until 15 minutes after being seated. * Every time I asked for something, the waitress would rush off before I could finish the request, and items either came very late or not at all (for example, I never received the sour cream I asked for). * Pancakes I ordered on the side showed up after the rest of the meal was finished. They were comped, which I appreciated, but the timing made them pointless. * Biscuits arrived about 10 minutes after the rest of the meal as well. On top of that, when it came time to pay, we had asked for part cash/part card, but the bill was split incorrectly. By the time we left, it had been nearly two hours for a simple breakfast, which was frustrating and disappointing. Overall, the food had bright spots (the jam and coffee cake especially), but the slow, inconsistent service really overshadowed them. read more

Go to local spot for bfast- served late into day. Gets busy and sometimes a wait, but also bar seating if on own or one other person. The fries are delicious!!! So crispy and flavorful! Nice sweets selection. Also- vegetarian biscuits and gravy!!! Oh ya!!! Not many places do that so I always enjoy them when I can :) read more

Food here is always delicious. This time ordered Huevo Rancheros and they were soo delicious, so much flavor. I loved that they were able to accommodate a large group of 14, we did have to wait a while due to the large group and they are always very busy. This place is always packed, try to make reservations or get there early. Everything was delicious and the service was great. The biscuits were soo fresh and delicious. read more

The food is outstanding. Had the meat lovers omelette special with their homemade biscuits and jam. Wait staff were very friendly, prompt and provided great service. The cafe is in a shopping center and doesn't look like much from the outside but inside is nicely decorated. I would give 5 stars but their pricing is a bit high. I'm know things are higher now but $23 for an omelette plus and extra $2 for the biscuit is pretty hefty. What really got me was the $5.50 for a regular cup of coffee!! read more

I've been here twice now and the food is pretty good! I don't usually come out to Napa but this is one of the spots on my list for brunch with the girls! Whenever I come here I love looking around at all the cute decor. I've tried the banana foster French toast and pancakes and both were tasty, but if I had to choose I would go with the French toast. My friends and family have tried their burgers and chili rellenos and said they were also pretty good. Both times I've been they had the sweetest waitresses as well. Will definitely be back to try some different dishes! read more

This is a great breakfast spot! We stopped in around 11am on Wednesday and service was super fast and friendly. I wish I would have taken pictures but the decor inside the restaurant is so much fun! There's beautiful art posted on all the walls and if you are a Marvel fan you have got to check out their bathroom! They have custom Marvel comic tiles on the walls! We tried the Biscuits, Eggs & Country Gravy. The biscuits were perfect and the gravy amazing. The "Panini Style" Corned Beef Sandwich was my favorite, their corned beef is house braised and delicious! read more

This was my first time eating here. I had the bacon and eggs meal with sourdough toast. I loved their toast. It wasn't your typical loaf of bread, I think it freshly made bread. It was really good with A LOT of butter. The waitress we had was very attentive to us and the service was great. The ambiance was great and it was filled with locals. I love seeing that which means that is a great place. The price was good for 4 people as well. I would recommend this place for sure. read more

Travelling from San Francisco - We started our long weekend at the Sonoma Raceway for the GT World Challenge then a hotel stay in Napa. The next morning we were looking for a real wine country breakfast and we found it at Sunshine Cafe! Tucked away in an un-descript shopping mall but you'll immediately notice the line of people at this restaurant. Extremely friendly people but the food is the star! Try everything but the biscuits and gravy are special-amazing! Beware the portions are cowboy big! Will come again and recommend. read more

I honestly don't understand how this place has a 4.6 rating. First of all, if something costs extra, you should tell the customer. I ordered an English muffin extra $2.00, but what I got was this greasy, unappetizing biscuit that tasted like it had been fried in reused oil. I also asked for egg whites, which they charged extra , but again, no one told me that upfront. To be fair, the mimosa and coffee were decent, and the egg whites--though they charged me an extra $2.50 for two slices--weren't overly greasy and were okay. Still, I wouldn't recommend coming here. The food is overpriced and doesn't taste good. I won't be coming back. read more

Delicious, delicious, delicious!!!! We returned to Napa after 30 years and Napa has changed for the better. We went to a jazz concert and stopped at the Sunshine Cafe the next morning for breakfast. Their biscuits are the best I've ever tasted: crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The jam is homemade and out of this world. We asked for a separate bowl of gravy to dip some of the biscuits in. Gravy is savory and full of bacon. Country potatoes are also yummy with some gravy on top. I had the waffles and fried chicken and my husband had eggs and bacon with country potatoes. We could not stop eating. It's a good thing we brought a cooler because I took home half of my chicken and waffles and put them in the air fryer to eat the next day. Service is excellent. Latte is double the size you would get at any other restaurant and so good. Atmosphere is soothing and decorated so nicely. The next time I'm there, I'm going to order a dozen biscuits to take home. Yum. I'm still thinking about them. Don't change the recipe. read more

Food was good, but prices were higher than expected. Basic strip-mall front breakfast place. Lots of tourists.

If joy had a flavor, it would be the stuffed French toast at Sunshine Café. I don't know what they're stuffing it with--cream cheese? clouds? broken dreams that have finally come true?--but it was like biting into a dessert that hugged my soul and then paid my therapy bill. And the chocolate chip pancakes? Oh, you mean the chocolatey, fluffy, disc-shaped miracles that made me question why I've been eating boring adult breakfasts like "granola" and "responsibility"? Yeah, those. They're what childhood would taste like if it got promoted to CEO. The staff? Absolutely stellar. Friendly, fast, and somehow they managed to be both chill and hyper-efficient, like a Disney character who's had just the right amount of coffee. I came in hungry. I left full, happy, and seriously considering whether I could get brunch tattooed on my arm. Highly recommend. Bring stretchy pants and an open heart! read more
