★★★★☆ 4.0 matthew jerkovic · Jan 2026

I walked into the diner for breakfast. I got more than Breakfast. I saw history in the way of news papers hanging on the was. It wasn't just the head line they saved. No. It was the whole news paper. The oldest one I saw was the paper with the headline when the Titanic sunk. Which was next to a poster for the Titanic. Liking photography like I do. There are cameras of all kinds everywhere. The part that made my breakfast that much better was hearing Casey Kasem American top 40 playing. This diner is just your neighbor diner I a good way. Good food for a good price. As I paid my bill I met the owner. She told me her father bought the diner 40 years ago. She keeping her dad's legacy a live. If you are in Lafayette stop in to the sunrise diner. And look at the history that is everywhere. Have

I was in town for 3 weeks the first two weeks I stayed on the east side of the town this is my first time staying over on the left side of the town the bartender at the Holiday inn recommended sunrise for breakfast and it was amazing I ate there every morning. There was a server and then the cook whom I think owns the place I didn't ask, food is amazing it's quick the locals that were sitting there I saw the same people every day which reminds me of Home in a small town atmosphere that I'm a kin to! The food was excellent 👍

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Alan Cesar · Feb 2025

I was hoping for a pleasant surprise here, but there was none. The biscuits were flat and the gravy was disappointing. The pork tenderloin was NOT flat like it should be. Fries came from frozen, and the ketchup bottle on the table had turned vinegary. Not to mention the bottle itself was greasy as can be. It was gross to touch. The food here is fairly cheap, but you don't even get what you pay for. Not worth another try.

My family and I have been enjoying Sunrise Diner for years now. We love the amazing breakfast food, classic feel, and engaging staff. It is not overpriced, and you always get your money's worth. It is our favorite breakfast spot in town and truly a local gem.

★★★★★ 5.0 Joyson Jacob · Feb 2024

So this small place takes cash or debit and the server was wonderful and offered to pay for the remaining when I ran out of cash. The world is a good place.. and has good people. The place has a very traditional look and feel . Biscuit and gravy with hash brown amazing
