We are visiting from out of town and wanted to find a local spot for breakfast. We walked in and right away knew we came to the right spot. It’s a small diner like feel, and you could tell it’s a local favorite. We were able to sit right away probably because it was late morning but it looked like we just missed a rush. The waitress Lisa was amazing and so helpful, she spent a long time helping us pick things to do while we are in town, then another local couple also got in on the conversation and basically helped plan the rest of our trip for us😊.The food was great, I got French toast and my husband had biscuits and gravy which I forgot to take pictures of because we were talking. We’ll definitely be going back for breakfast the rest of the week!

Very homey and welcoming! Went up to Buffalo with my friend to go to Canada for a day and we stopped by here and the waitress was so nice, the food was amazing made with love and the place itself was beautiful and homey! If I’m ever back up again I’ll definitely come back!

The food was fantastic. The corn beef hash if freshly made. I do like the canned stuff but their version is was really good especially with some eggs, which were perfectly made over easy. The pancakes were also very good. Just basic pancakes but that's exactly what I was looking for this morning. Overall I would recommend coming here either by yourself for a quick breakfast or bring your family. I plan on coming back soon.

Lisa is AMAZING. I stopped in on a whim and a quick google search, sat at the counter and she made me feel right at home. Gave me tips on where to get the best local food and experience- jolly, and iced the cake by snagging me when I left to take a picture of me “to send to my husband.” Great breakfast- Very small place so I imagine it gets full quick, but there was a little room on this Tuesdays morning. You’ll realize that the sunshine in the Sunshine Cafe, is Lisa herself- and the memory of her momma.

The Sunshine Cafe is a great dinner! It looked like this place had regulars, and that type of comfort for a small business feels amazing. The service was great, our waitress was very nice. The food was fantastic. The rye bread tasted so incredibly fresh, probably the best I've had from a restaurant. The eggs were some of the best I've had in a while too. Quick side note, it is cash only, but they have an ATM in the restaurant too!
