We had a delicious breakfast. Everything was made to order and server fresh. Our waitress was a delight and made recommendations. Cafe was clean and plenty of space between tables. Highly recommend! read more

My boyfriend and I stopped here while we were on a little roadtrip. We both love a local diner vibe and this place did not disappoint. One of the biggest reasons we decided to try it is because they've been in business for 45. That's pretty cool! We got the Variety Club with bacon and turkey, the Reuben, and a Boston Crème pie. The food was all yummy. The service was always really nice. Super clear that this is probably a place that locals just come to hang out after work. It was really easy to park right out front. All in all just a really great experience! read more

Saturday morning was really busy but we were seated quietly and service was efficient and friendly. Our orders came out quickly. I had the breakfast wrap and Schweety the Western omelette. We love finding unique places like this. read more

This is a good local spot right off of 65, and perfectly located between Indianapolis and Louisville. The servers were friendly and brought coffee and menus over immediately. The menu is fairly large. I was looking for something on the healthier side so I ordered the vegetarian omelet with a side of fruit. The fruit was canned fruit, not the fresh fruit I was expecting. The omelet was just ok. My brother had the French toast and that was definitely the better option. The old-school order pads/checks were so cute! read more

The food and service are great. Drove by many times on the way to see my daughter and we stopped. Did not disappoint.

I absolutely adore this place everything about it is perfect the food the service the ambiance

We found this little place quite by accident and it was very good. Our waitress was right there to take our order and our food came out super fast! It was all very good and will definitely go there again if we're in the area. read more

We stopped in here for breakfast. Upon entering you take a seat anywhere that's comfy for you and it's like walking into your grandmas kitchen. Everyone is so welcoming and it feels like home. The food came out very fast and was fresh. The home fries are actual fresh cut fried potatoes. The bacon has a great flavor. Biscuits and gravy were amazing. They come around every few mins for coffee refills. The pancakes are light and fluffy and best of all they have peanut butter for them. I can't say enough good things about this little place. We will be stopping in there again real soon. Also they have semi truck parking so it's convenient and easy to grab a hot meal as a driver like myself as well. read more

Sunshine Cafe - Biscuits and Gravy with over easy eggs and fried potatoes - American Near Me - Seymour, Indiana

Sunshine Cafe was a nice typical greasy spoon. The restaurant was fairly clean for as busy as they were. It's seat yourself when you get in and there are a lot of 4 top booths and a few smaller and larger tables. Tables are quite close together and you can definitely hear whatever conversation is going on at your neighbor's table. This place has the entire menu available all day and it's a big one! Their kids menu is a good value and my kid said it would was one of the best burgers she had ever had. The fries were good too and tasted made to order. The coffee was not great IMO. It did not taste very fresh and I had to add two creamers when I usually take mine black. For $2.69 it wasn't what I had hoped for. They did keep it filled though as our waitress always had a caraffe in hand. I got the ribeye medium rare and eggs were supposed to be medium well (they came over easy). I was pretty shocked by the lack of seasoning on the meat, it was like they were afraid to add salt to anything here. A-1 saved the steak and it at least was cooked properly otherwise. The eggs were quite eggy flavored. My husband got a side of sausage gravy with his ground sirloin and it was ok. Pretty light on sausage but it at least tasted good. Service was quick here and the staff was very nice. I can tell they are busy on the weekends and are used to the traffic. It's worth a stop if you have a little time to sit and eat while on the road. read more

Everytime I have gone, the wait staff and service is fast and friendly. The food is always great! read more

Terrible, runny mashed potatoes, no refills on my beverage UNTIL I was about to leave, Staff member kept eyeing Me as she took a break in plain view, No designated break area?! I saw trash under a table, What ambience? Horrible experience :/ read more

This is your basic cafe and we loved it. The biscuits here alone are worth a stop. We got here at lunch but we all ate breakfast and were pleased with everything. Eggs, hash browns, biscuits. .....it is basically what I would order IHOP, Plus, the wait staff could not be any nicer. It seemed like they were having a good time too and were interacting with people eating there. We would come back for sure. read more

#15/2022 Still 24 hours even through covid only closed on Christmas Day. easily accessible from interstate 65 at the Seymour exit 50. Next to what I like to call the (economy motels) Use your own visualization LOL. Been here for over 40 years originally was called a waffle house no affiliation and they changed it to the sunshine cafe. Your classic old school roadside greasy spoon. While at night time it could be a little scenic around here LOL one thing you definitely hasn't changed as you will not leave hungry. I was coming up 65 headed down towards Louisville to go east and my belly started rumbling and I thought you know it's got to be at least 10 years since I hit this place off so I thought let me go into the old rickety gravel parking lot and make my way around to the truck area and go in and strap on the feedbag. Walking in it was slam parked they do an unbelievable business still very big with the locals along with the travelers. It definitely shows its age which is a good sign to me nothing like a good rundown Cafe but the slam packed people and the smiles on the faces that you're getting some good grub here. So I sat down I could see that slammed they were the table was dirty I didn't care I just patiently waited for the server to bring the menu and the clean the table off no big deal you can't always clean it during peak hours when you want to. Ordered up some coffee began to peruse the menu. First thing they notice even though it's not owned by Greeks they have the Greek influence it's got everything under the sun and every kind of variety you can want. After looking at another person's plate I saw he was eating steak and eggs and boy did it look good I said I want me some steak and eggs too LOL. So I ordered them up medium over medium for the eggs and I asked if they're hash browns were the kind that were little cubed and thrown into the fryer like french fries or if they were the old sliced potatoes on the grill which they were. Went with wheat toast. Food came out fairly quickly fantastic with a capital F. The reason for the full bar of stars across the board the quality of the food. The ribeye was a boneless rib eye cooked perfectly the eggs were great the home fries were just phenomenal nice big chunks with the skin on them fried on the grill just perfect. I cleaned the plate and then some I decided I'm definitely going to be hitting this place up a lot more hopefully it's going to be as good next time too I come down 65 constantly it seems always between Indianapolis to Louisville either coming south or headed east and I'm definitely going to be making this a local stop for breakfast or even dinner that looks pretty good too. My kind good options for the sides too cottage cheese is always a plus for me hard to find a lot of places anymore but they got it. All in all for an old rundown Cafe it's definitely worth the time and the money the quality of the food is all that really matters to me I could deal with a little dirty floor that's no big deal. Check if you're making your way down 65 an hour north of Louisville hour South of Indy right smack in the middle in Seymour stop on in and fill up your belly. read more

A friend of mine and I were heading to this year's Indianapolis 500. We were staying in Louisville. Looking for a place to stop for breakfast, I saw the billboard for this place. Loved the logo. Wanting to try something different from the chains, we were more than pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere inside. Obviously a local staple, we could not have been more pleased with the food and service, especially the coffee! All of the servers and staff were terrific. It was such a great experience we stopped in again after the race for dinner on the way back to Louisville. Anyone traveling through Seymour should make it a priority to stop by and eat. You will not be disappointed. Hope I don't have to wait a year to go there again. read more

Great little hole in the wall with traditional breakfast and many other greasy treats to boot! We visited morning of the eclipse and got right in. read more

Atmosphere: Overall, it felt 'homey' with the old school designs and settings. Food: The food was plentiful, and huge portions and the wait for the food was reasonably quick. Highly recommend the breaded tenderloin and the amount you get for it. Service: the service was excellent, the staff was friendly, and always checking up on us for anything we needed, and quick to accommodate our needs. Price: affordable, I paid roughly $8 - $10 per meal, worth the expense for quality and quantity of the food. read more

Stopped here as we passed through town. I insisted on a "local" place where I could find simple, good food. The atmosphere inside was simple. The server, "CH" was very nice. She was always checking our table for anything we needed. We ordered eggs, sausage and hashbrowns for one meal and an omelet for another. It came out very quick and with a smile. Food was basic, but good. Exactly what a diner should be. All the employees were very nice. I would give it a 4.5 overall read more

Good food, consistent quality, friendly staff and value priced. And yes it used to be a Waffle House!

Went here for Mother's Day! It was sooo delicious and the service was amazing. However we all had stomach aches that night. Was it from over eating or food poisoning? Only God knows! Still I give it a 5 star review read more

Stopped for breakfast on way back to Chicago from Louisville. Right off 65. Local family run 24 hr restaurant. Huge portions with good prices. Free coffee refills. read more

Great breakfast! Stopped on the way back to Indy, but I wish this location was near me. Fast service, great prices. Got a burger steak, eggs, hash browns, and eggs. Everything was absolutely perfect. read more

Four of us came on Friday around 10:30am. Sat down immediately. This is a decent size no frills roadside cafe. Service was fast and friendly. The breakfast country fried steak, breakfast wrap, Philly omelette and sausage gravy and biscuits were ordered. As well as two cups of coffee. Everything was really good. Very reasonable priced at $50 for the above (not including tip). We all would definitely go back. read more

I don't get these other reviews??? Saw a few truckers rigs, so I thought, thumbs up. The service (with a snarl) was not good. The young guy was nice, but our waitress clearly wasn't having a good day. The food was not good, very bland, even the string beans w/bacon had no taste, soggy, and cooked to the point of mush. We travel a lot and prefer to try/support local eateries, which usually works out great. Stick to nearby Applebee's in this case. Sorry to be so negative, but I had to be honest. read more

Food comes in large portions and service was good. It beats many of the comparable chain restaurants. I had a canned biscuit with gravy and eggs. Others with me had grits, hashbrowns and a sausage gravy boat. The restaurant was crowded and we had to wait a few minutes for a table - but the workers turned the table over quickly. Unlike many places, this restaurant had enough servers and they were working as a team. read more

Long time Seymour staple ; food is good, service has always been friendly and prices reasonable

Great food and service - breakfast served 24 - 7, how can you beat that? Small cafe off 65. Be prepared to wait on weekends, this place is always packed. read more

This place has given me so many great memories. The food is great, and the syrup is even better. All of the waiters are very kind and bring lots of hot coffee. The ambience is great. I don't know what that means but it sure is nice. read more

Was excited to give this place a try. The method of taking orders is weird. They do a card per person and then total it at the end. Limited refills on soft drinks. Latches on bathroom doors didn't work. There were no changing tables. The food was okay. Nothing was amazing. It did taste like it was all made in-house. Kinda disappointed there was no real cheddar cheese. There was a cheddar cheese sauce but it wasn't very good (tasted old). Service was acceptable. read more

For a small diner off the highway, this eatery has a large menu, the service was great and so was the food. A welcome surprise on our way back to Chicago on Interstate 65 in Seymour, Indiana. read more

Very disappointed. Second time here came in this morning waited to be seated while the cashier carried on a conversation with the previous customers, soon as I was up to be seated another employee came up in front of me "the customer" and starts carrying on a conversation about getting stuff out of her trailer. I came to the restaurant to get something to eat, not to watch employees talk about non-work related stuff. While doing this review just watched the people behind me left too. Very rude of the employees. I won't be back. read more

I had a t bone steak , baked potato and salad . Everything was great. The food and service here is always great

Hidden gem, lots of server's that help all tables not just theirs. Coffee is good not acidic or bitter. This is our 2nd time here. Have driven by more times than I can count. Will be on our rotation for good food. read more

I enjoyed the food and the ambiance of this place! Pork tenderloin is highly recommended! The sweet tea though is not as good as I have expected read more
