Sunrise Cafe

I was in Springfield again and stopped in for breakfast. They have great basic food. I treated myself to a chocolate malt and it was delicious. The service is great.

Nice breakfast place. My friend Dale comes here once a week to meet up with siblings. Love that they can do this here to catch up on weekly events at a central location.
Very clean and plenty of air conditioning no matter wherever you seat yourself. Wait staff attentive. Had the B&G it was average imo for a cafe. I didn't set an very high expectation for breakfast. In general all breakfast places are pretty much the same exact food. The only differences being location and service. That being said this place that's probably a two person operation that serves all the basic breakfast styled foods with a small menu. So, no complaints from me. 12/2023

Food 4 slightly above average meal. And breakfast is available all day.
Ambiance 5 not too crowded good place to meet up have good conversations and not be drowned out with your typical noisy breakfast crowds.
Service 5 we were the first through the doors for breakfast. Service was quick from the very beginning the place got busy as we were leaving.
Value 5
Location 5

I was low-key concerned based off some of the reviews stating staff was rude & racist. My experience was anything but that. Service was really friendly & quick, food was very tasty. Prices are incredibly reasonable for the amount of food you get

Boom! One of the last few real mom and pop diners in town, the Sunrise Cafe slings cheeseburgers and fries about ten steps above big chain fast food. Those smashed down patties and string onions coupled with that melty American Cheese are just what the doctor ordered. I believe his name was Doctor Treatyourself. Get a coke with that good crunchy ice and you're all set. They've got a drive through too! (Just call ahead cuz that's for pickup)

Tip your servers well. You got a great deal from nice folks!

Food was absolutely horrible.. I order a half order of biscuits and gravy and TALK ABOUT STINGY!!! They put two little dollops of gravy on a biscuit! And the gravy had a cinnamon aftertaste.. and the biscuit where like sponges Not to mention it was almost 30 bucks for two half orders and two strips of burnt black bacon... I will say the waitress was sweet, but I 100% don't recommend getting the biscuits and gravy (also the place was sticky and dirty)

Closed posted hours say 8 pm but they actually close at 2???? If ur gonna change ur hours then do it on line!! Wasted gas driving to the place

Sunrise cafe is a Springfield standard. Whether you're hungover or not, you'll love this classic home cooked food! Been my favorite since I was a child.

Went there for the first time today and had their biscuits and gravy and it was amazing! Definitely will be going back again!

I've eaten here hundreds of times. The food is good, not great, diner food.

Today the owner posted a picture claiming that Michelle Obama is a man.

Never Again

Deciding we still weren't ready to cook our own breakfast in 2016 yet, we headed to #eatlocal again on January 2nd at the Sunrise Cafe. It had really been a lot of years since I'd been here, but I still have fond memories of breakfast with friends after fun nights on the town!

I ordered the same thing as the morning before, two over easy eggs, bacon, hash browns, and toast. This plate of food was not as successful as at the Parkway. The eggs were under and still had some slimy whites around the yolk, the hash browns were flavorless, and the toast (not pictured again) wasn't toasted. The bacon was good and crispy though! Mike really enjoyed his chicken fried steak, which I tried a bite of and it was delicious. We also got a side of cheese sauce so we could try it. $1.75!! That's crazy. It was a decent size cup full, but no way we could eat it all with the small amount of potatoes so it went to waste. They really should offer a smaller, less expensive amount!

All and all, the food was decent and the service was friendly and prompt, so I'd return and try another meal.
