Ultimate Brunch Guide | What to Eat at Sunny Side Café

Brunch is more than just a meal—it’s an experience, and Sunny Side Café knows exactly how to do it right. From fluffy pancakes to perfectly poached eggs, this charming café has mastered the art of creating the ultimate brunch spread. As someone who takes brunch very seriously, I was eager to see if this place lived up to the hype.

Walking in, I was immediately drawn to the warm and inviting atmosphere. The smell of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, and the sight of beautifully plated dishes passing by only made me hungrier. The menu had so many tempting options that I had a hard time deciding what to order, but after much debate (and a few recommendations from the friendly staff), I settled on a mix of sweet and savory dishes.

The Perfect Start – Avocado Toast with a Twist

I started with the Signature Avocado Toast, and let me tell you—it was anything but basic. The thick, sourdough bread was toasted to perfection, providing the ideal crunch. It was layered with creamy mashed avocado, topped with cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, radish slices, and a perfectly poached egg. The drizzle of chili-infused honey added a subtle heat that elevated every bite. It was refreshing, flavorful, and the kind of dish I’d happily order again.

Sweet Indulgence – The Fluffiest Pancakes

Next up were the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes, and I can confidently say these were some of the fluffiest, most melt-in-your-mouth pancakes I’ve ever had. They had just the right balance of sweetness and tanginess, with a hint of vanilla. Served with whipped mascarpone, fresh berries, and a generous drizzle of maple syrup, they felt like pure brunch perfection. Every forkful was light, airy, and packed with flavor.

A Classic Done Right – Eggs Benedict

For my main dish, I went with the Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict, which turned out to be a total game-changer. The English muffin was perfectly toasted, and the smoked salmon had a rich, buttery texture that paired beautifully with the velvety hollandaise sauce. The eggs were poached to perfection, with golden yolks that oozed out at the slightest touch. Served with a side of crispy breakfast potatoes, this dish was everything I hoped for and more.

The Iced Latte That Tied It All Together

To wash it all down, I ordered their house-made vanilla iced latte, which was just the right mix of smooth espresso, creamy milk, and a hint of sweetness. It wasn’t overly sugary, letting the natural coffee flavors shine through, making it the perfect complement to my meal.
