This classic family diner had great quality food that was absolutely DELICIOUS!! My cheeseburger paddy was homemade, as well as the dressing for my tasty salad. The walls were covered in really neat saying images that became wonderful conversation topics and made me laugh. I loved the staff. They were so welcoming and nice. The his is a hidden gem that I would be delighted to become a regular at!!! Thank you for the lovely meal and great service! 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It's a cute little Cafe great food. Only problem was at the end they kind of scoffed at us because we didn't eat all the food. Being someone who has had a gastric sleeve I cant eat a lot. I ordered eggs and bacon with toast and ate what I could. I don't like bringing eggs home as I get grossed out reheating them and my fiance ate almost everything but we weren't a fan of their potatoes so we didn't eat them and they came off a little rude about it.

After a 4-day business function in Niagara Falls, we wanted to find a breakfast place on the way to the airport that wasn’t going to break the bank account! We found this local gem on google map. When we entered the restaurant there was only one table left and we were excited because we knew it was going to be good! We ordered Greek omelettes and pancakes. VERY generous portions and we felt bad because none of us could finish our breakfasts! Highly recommend this “husband and wife” owned and operated business! But beware, get there early!! There was a lineup of people waiting for a table right after we sat down! To those individuals who gave reviews criticizing the prices, have you gone grocery shopping lately? Jeez! Reasonably priced for the value we received! We arrived with an appetite and left with a full tummy and a happy soul!

Sunrise cafe is a cute little cafe that offers breakfast and lunch options at a good price. The restaurant has cute little signs up that made me laugh. My server was absolutely beautiful, kind and quick! The food was good! Personally, I found the home fries a little bland without any seasoning but still good! You need to try one of the many home-made baked goods that they offer. Delicious!

We asked asked around where the locals eat and Sunrise Cafe came up several times. Stopped in for breakfast and it's great for the price. Mira, the ownee came over and chatted with us, very pleasant to chat with. One thing to mention, they only take debit cards and cash. My US debit card didn't work as designed so I had to run down the road to get cash. They were very accommodating about it. Breakfast is delicious and portions are huge. Worth stopping in!

The restaurant had great food! Mira, the owner, was serving and provided great service. My French Toast with apple and pear topping were absolutely delicious! I also ordered a side of sausage links. Those absolutely did not disappoint. Her staff and the ambience truly shows Canadian Hospitality at it's best. Go early and enjoy a relaxing breakfast at a very reasonable price. Don't bring credit cards ... it's best to use cash. This place won't disappoint. Don't forget to purchase their Butter Tarts, they are Amazing!!!!

A great little breakfast place where you can find your all time favourite breakfast items like pancakes, eggs and home fries with tasty sausages and bacon. The great thing about it is these simple meals were cooked perfectly. My easy over eggs were just right, potatoes, sausages and bacon are crispy and not drenched in oil. Pancakes were fluffy and delicious. Rye toasts are great too, a bit too much butter for my liking but they are tasty nonetheless. They have little tarts to take home too if you’d like. I will be back again ! Give it a try if you are in the area 😊🌟

Please be AWARE that if you are from the USA they will try and cheat you by over charging you. When you get your bill they will add on fees that were not told to you upfront. They will tell you that they do not accept cards, only cash. They are very rude, mean spirited people, who are unethical and unkind. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

And the eggs Benedict my wife had was amazing. Undoubtedly the best meal of our week long vacation!!!!!!!!

Sunrise cafe is a hidden jewel in St. Catharines. Go and discover it. The atmosphere is so welcoming, the service was friendly and the food was delicious.

The food is absolutely fantastic and relatively cheap for how good it is. A had a #2 which is eggs, Bacon or sausage(I had bacon) and toast Overall I had a very good experience there Food:5/5 Service:5/5 Atmosphere:5/5 Overall:5/5

So Ill start by saying this is partially my fault I shouldnt blindly trust. I was scammed out of my money. Im American and only has the US dollar on me for cash. I asked if I could pay in US Dollar. The waitress (probably mid 30s early 40s long brown hair) told me I could. All I had was a $100 US. She took the $100 and gave me $120 Candian. I didnt even think twice. Well based on todays exchange rate she should have given me $137.20. Dishonest people in this world are what make this world what it is... I guess she got what was coming though because when we paid with the Canadian my kids were so excited about the change and getting Canadian money I completely forgot to tip. I was going to mail her a tip and when I was looking up how much to mail her is when I realized she shorted us from the beginning. She played the part very well. She was overly nice and even helped us look up boarder crossing wait times. Anyway, if you are looking for an honest place to have a meal, skip this one.

Staff are nice, too bad their customers arent. I came to your restaurant at 10am May 8. I was having breakfast before going to a job interview. I was a bit nervous about the interview. The food was great, staff and waitress were nice until I went to leave. There was a miserable man sitting near the door. I didnt know who this man was.. however He had the nerve to say to me we know who you are. We dont want you here. I dont know what his issue was with me. I dont even live in St Catharines. I live in Niagara falls. Im a disabled person on government assistance. I only came to st Catharines for a job interview. I hope this person whoever he is comes to understand that he made my already stressful day a little bit worse. I appreciate the good breakfast I had though.

Food is good, your typical Canadian breakfast, with burnt potatoes, more than normal. What I dont understand is why does it cost a kid and an adult $36, with tip, to have a measly breakfast? I had a coffee, she had an iced tea. I mean cmon!!! Eggs dont cost more. Buy them from the farm, they cost the same. This is getting ridiculous! It makes me not want to go to any restaurants, ever, or, if I go, go to decent ones where at least its worth paying more. But a breakfast only place???

Asked for omlette with no onion (allergy), got onion. Not only that, there was a dark, short hair included. Didnt feel comfortable complaining or giving live feedback because I already mentioned my side bacon was missing and waitress said I know, its coming very rudely. Waitress is brute and careless. Splashed coffee on table when doing a refill. This is our 3rd visit, wont be back. PS they dont take credit card Vegetarian options: Nice veggie omlette.

December 23, 2023

Only cash or debit payments are accepted. As US tourists, we (a family of three) ended up paying a premium because we only had US dollars on us. Food was okay, but when we asked for a bill, no itemized bill was given! The owner only shouted out a number to pay in cash. I was not happy to pay $60 just for some eggs and potatoes! We shouldve spent time asking for a detailed bill and why we had to pay so much cash in US dollars. We were on vacation with a hectic schedule and didnt want to spoil the mood, so we paid and left quickly. In hindsight, it was a terrible experience that we learned a hard lesson that never pay until you see a detailed bill or simply dont go to any cash only places. Owners, if youre reading this, shame on you for taking advantage of US tourists who only have US dollars on them!

I used to come here every week years ago with my old boss. Great service and atmosphere...then. came here 2 weeks in a Row recently..food still great, but horrendous service. The 2 european waitresses has some sort of attitude. Brought 1 jam for 8 toast and when i asked for another cube of jam was greeted with i already brought u one. Then rolled her eyes when she realized i wanted a second one. Had to ask for utesils and again was receive as i was asking for the world. It was busy so i understand the long wait to order. All in all great food but dont expect a smile. I wont be back. There are plenty of breakfast restaurants that have great food and actually enjoy their clients. Cooks got 10$ tips. Waitress tip...0.

December 23, 2023

All I can say about this place is: check your bill. The prices on the menu does not match what was hand written on the receipt. Examples? I had the Eggs Benedict which read 15.49 on the menu but was 15.99 on the bill. We added an additional egg which should have been 1.79 but was 2.00 on the bill. These are small amounts but when we added it all up, we were overcharged 12.00. The waitress reassured me that she did the tax amount in her head. Instead of arguing, I got the hell out of there. It was a weird experience. If anyone can recommend another breakfast place please send a comment.

Food is always great when I come here! But really disappointing to watch the staff lick their fingers and then handle the tarts... Maybe keep an eye on that.

My fiancé and I went to Sunrise Cafe this morning. We always enjoy it, great food for a reasonable price and the owners are so nice! Today it slipped our mind that they only accept cash and debit, and we only had our credit cards! They handled it so well, made sure we didn t feel embarrassed and told us we could come back whenever to settle the bill, even as late as tomorrow! We, of course, drove home, got money, and drove right back, but their reaction really solidified why we love their restaurant so much. Good food from a nice hardworking family, can t get any better than that! Thank you Sunrise Cafe!!!!

The food here is quite good. The prices are good. But the staff are extremely friendly and hospitable. They were very helpful in accommodating my entire family including my three year old daughter and we are not from around that area at all. You can find good diner food a lot of places but their great service would make me a repeat customer anytime I am in the area.

Friendly service we were seated right away with menus. Got coffees a few minutes later. Server didn t come back to get our order for over 20 minutes. She was busy clearing tables and refilling coffee and served others (thinking regulars) before we caught her eye. She was working alone so we still tipped very well. Once ordered the food came hot and delicious and fast !! Very great spot for breakfast the kitchen staff are excellent!!

Usually the food is decent, but last time I went the eggs Benny were terrible. The peameal was undercooked and the hollandaise sauce had 0 flavour. It cost me $22 for my breakfast. Their prices are expensive for a breakfast joint especially when the quality wasnt there.

We ve lived in St. Catharines for a year now & today was our first time at sunrise cafe, and not only was the food absolutely fantastic, but the service was amazing. Melissa was one of the best waitresses we ve had serve us in a long long time. She brought our drinks within minutes of us sitting down, refilled our coffees without us having to ask, and got our food out as soon as it was ready (which was only about a 10 minute wait and very impressive considering the restaurant was packed) My boyfriend and I are throughly impressed & will definitely be back :) such a wonderful start to the day!

My sisters and I had a wonderful experience at Sunrise Cafe today. The food, people and atmosphere just made my day. The quantity and quality of the food was spot on. My breakfast was hot and fresh and full of flavor. The pancakes especially were delicious. All the wait staff was friendly and helpful even with all the tables being continuously full. The owners are so lovely, you really feel they put their heart and soul into this place. We can upon this restaurant by chance and am so happy we did. I will be back next time I am in the area!

Too expensive for a breakfast meal, they even charge more things that we didnt order. In which I only noticed later, Check your receipt. I recommend Hi-light in Niagara falls excellent breakfast and really not expensive... I would rate 0, but they dont have that option.

Sorry it was normal meal why was it 20 dollars, I think Too expensive for a breakfast meal served from 7 to 9 , and not even Saturday or Sunday, the same breakfast where else is $5.99 plus coffee $2.00 = $8.00
