    Whoever decides what businesses get to open in George St at Thebarton obviously has great taste. This street, which was already home to The Wheatsheaf hotel and the Deli, now has Mr Sunshine's - a great café with amazing coffee and breakfasts, and a good looking lunch menu. Apparently it has been open since 2013, with a refurbishment in June 2014 but to me this place is brand new, so it's pretty exciting. I was waiting for a meeting, so when the member of staff asked me if I wanted a coffee, we were off to a great start. It's always good when someone comes up and looks after you and makes sure you're ok. The coffee was served in a funky second hand looking mug and saucer which perfectly matched the paintings and other nick knacks on the wall. This place has been really well designed. Many of the paintings and accessories wouldn't look out of place on the set of Twin Peaks or a Wes Anderson film set. I would really like to know who designed the interior of this café and get them to design my kitchen. Something else to note is that this café doesn't feel cluttered at all. It's a very smart use of the space. After our meeting I had a bacon and egg sandwich with chilli jam and rocket and a second coffee. It was top notch grub which started my day on a good note. I'll definitely be back.

    Stopped by to get a coffee while my car is getting serviced next door at Holden. As soon as I walked through the outside seating area I instantly enjoyed the relaxed & comfy feeling. With blankets for your legs available for cold days & walking inside to tables & chairs that reminded me of my grandmas. Having a peek at the menu & a slice of espresso brownie just put out it was a tough decision. The bacon & egg sandwich was the winner & I was not disappointed. I am not a condiments lover but that tomato chilli jam brought it all together. Unfortunately not having lactose free milk was disappointing. Unfortunately almond,coconut or soy milk just dont cut it in flavour department for a cupacino. Looking forward to coming back.

    Um, delicious array of breakfast meal options for around $12 ...not $20? A hipster place that doesn't gouge you for the honour of being seen with the in crowd? Welcome to Mister Sunshine's. Everyone had mad order envy of everyone else's selections. Staff were amazingly friendly - there's one guy there my partner calls 'the Happy guy!' which should give you some indication - and it's the sort of place that let us chill for an hour after we finished our meals just chatting and sipping water without pressuring us to order more coffees etc. In short, it's just about the perfect brunch place on this side of Adelaide.

    I'm gonna put it out there... best breakky I've tried in Adelaide so far. Yep, I said it. When you cruise into George Street, Thebarton the bold signage of Sunshine's is hard to miss. The front courtyard is full of mixed size tables shaded by the huge gum tree. The front seating area alone is true to the sunshiny name. Walk through the door though, and it's the cheery staff's demeanour that bring the rays. The eclectic bunch always provide outstanding service with a smile. Then we have the food. Gorgeous, fresh, well balanced, quality and scrumptious are all great adjectives to describe the menu. I can only speak of the breakky menu, but I've tried a lot of it and so far have not found a dud (I don't expect to). My faves are the bacon and egg sandwich, the smashed avo (seasonal) and the minced mushrooms. The coffee is solid and on top of all this the prices are great, and whilst there's sometimes a short wait on the weekend, it's rarely too long. If you haven't tried Sunshine's I ask you, why not? Do it.

    Loved this little hideaway in thebarton. Very busy the Friday morning I went.. Service was friendly but took awhile to get to order. Had to order another coffee! I had scrambled eggs, bacon & mushroom. Don't get me wrong, I love my eggs a tad under, but they were a wee too much. The mushroom were incredible, I am coming back for those babies! Last of all coffee, a little on the weak side for my liking but was presented lovely. I look forward to going again, definitely deserves a second try!

    This is the best Warm Chicken Salad in the Western Suburbs, you should try it ASAP!
    Dave C.

    Must admit, pretty cool joint, makes good use of retro interior. You walk in, the guys behind the counter make you feel welcome immediately. Menu suits all, from bacon & eggs to chicken to vego. I got the Warm Chicken Salad which was fantastic. Coffee decent too, highly recommend!

    Whats NEW in West Thebarton!? Well this place is! :) So I don't really know the history behind Mister Sunshines.. but what I can tell you is that this place is back, and the best its ever been.. Mister Sunshine's is a mix between your grandparents house and a mexican garden.. I really found it very cool.. The location isn't ideal, as Holden take up all the car spots, but if your willing to walk a bit you can find a carpark in one of the small (i mean tiny) side streets. Pricing wise.. Mister sunshine's owners have done really well as you really can't go wrong with a maximum meal price of $12.. Now as many of you would know I am a big fan of burgers.. and when you see a burger like this one on the menu you have to try it. The "Beef & Chorizo burger with beetroot".. What a mix, but it worked... the worst part was that it was over so quickly.. and I found the lack of sides or side options disappointing. For all those Coffee lovers out there.. you'll be happy with the coffee choice.. not 100% sure the branding, but it is really smooth.. Unfortunately there large really isn't large, more of a small mug. The Menu is quirky, but well thought out.. There is definitely some other meals I will try on my next visit.. Overall this quirky little venue reminds me of my grandparents kitchen.. with a hipster touch.. I think she actually has the plates and mugs.. :)

    Bacon, Chorizo, and eggs on toast with a nice cafe latte.

    I can't speak for other meals but if it was like my breakfast experience this morning... GO HERE! As I walked off the street toward the entrance I was greeted and asked what I needed... "Breakfast" I replied. "Take a seat and we will be right with you" One minute later I was served some water and my order taken.,The Eggs on Toast with Bacon and Chorizos" Was Delicious - But it was the loveliness of the staff that will have me coming back.

    Let's just say that I can't wait to come back here - for a second, third and fourth time! So writing a review based on one visit may be risky but I'm sure I'll update this as I sample the range of selections on offer! On my one and only visit thus far I sampled the beef and chorizo burger and I absolutely loved it! I teamed it with a freshly squeezed juice - featuring apple, ginger and... something else delicious! The service was super friendly - a real reason to return and no item on the menu was over $12! I also really liked the decor - a little bit 'hipster' but hey - you gotta be on trend these days! Definitely swing by and give this place a look in if you're in the area!

    Nice hidden gem in Thebarton

    It gets quite busy here during the week for lunch so allow a bit of time to find a table and wait a couple of minutes. Rest assured it is worth the wait, when our food came out - it felt like a bit of warmth and love was delivered on our plate. I had the soup of the day and on a rather cold and blustery day it felt like a little ray of sunlight in every spoonful. The staff were so energetic, happy and friendly you can't help but share in their good mood. It was certainly my mister sunshine on a rather grey day!

    MariaLuisa S.

    Fantastic! Hit the jackpot for lunch when we came across the small hidden cafe The smashed pumpkin on toast was full of flavour along with the haloumi burger Definitely worth visiting.

    Amazing vegetarian friendly fare, dog friendly is an understatement. A house made chinotto was the perfect accompaniment to a slightly seedy Sunday siesta.

    29/12/2011 I have to chuckle a bit. Five Star Yiros + Spud…read moreis the most exaggerated name of all business names - I mean, what makes a Yiros "Five stars", really? What a joke. I must say though, your Yiros is really delicious and packed with all the garlic sauce and chicken and vegies that anyone could ever need, yet you claim you're five stars...Good, but not worthy of 5 stars, sorry. From a small age my parents wanted me to be the most perfect son. To always improve yourself. So much so, even to the extreme point of being the best. I have been called crazy by my brothers and best friends for my behaviour, high standards, and perfectionist thinking, but in my book - you gotta really impress me if you want every single one of my five stars. One big reason I rated you less: The person who served me gave me the biggest "dagger" (here in Adelaide slang, this means giving someone an angry facial expression) SO clearly obvious that I felt like she didn't want me ordering her food. I just wanted to say, hey, your yummy Yiros alone is making me finish my order, and I'm giving you my money, so you can at least give me your tiniest smile when serving me food. Don't get me wrong - You could've earned 4-stars from me, but no way you're going to get 5-stars from me. If you compare your service to some of the other reviews I've done where I gave them 5 stars, the two biggest reasons were based on: their top service, and how they made me feel entering/during/walking out. Yes, your Yiros was oozing sauce, full of the right flavours, fresh vegies, quick wrapping - in fact, it was easily one of the best tasting Yiros I've had in the Adelaide CBD area. (But I can't forget that when you were listening to my verbal order, you maintained your cold angry facial expression straight into my eyes. I don't appreciate that at all.) Maybe I'm still caught up in the post X-mas holiday spirit where I wrongly expect that everybody should be positive, happy, smiley, or enjoy being at their work. But for a city that reminds their employees all the time about how you greet customers properly and having a happy attitude at work in general, I was secretly disappointed in your service. Yes, your Yiros is great, but I just can't get over how you served me with such a death stare. Did I do anything wrong to you, in the 5 seconds we just met? That's just not on when it comes to giving other people food. I'm on a break from work, absolutely starving, so the least you can do is smile. Please.

    I can't say this place deserves its five-star rating as is given in the name. Maybe I am just lucky…read morethat around the corner from me the local pizza shop does amazing baked spuds but this just didn't satisfy. The portion size was ample and the staff were plenty friendly. The spud itself was quite dry and lacked that fluffy spud quality. The chilli con carne didn't have any beans in it, it was more like Bolognese with some chilli in it. The coleslaw was didn't have much flavour. The bacon wasn't crisp and the beetroot was dry. I have heard better things about the yiros but I won't be rushing back to try, especially with the other options in the food court

I now have this theory...the smaller the sushi spot and the more plastic meals they have on display the better and more freshly made the sushi roll. Being a huge raw tuna and sushi fan I was not overly astounded at the fish variety on the menu here (aside from 1 raw salmon sushi roll) however because I was feeling adventurous I thought I'd tried eel in a Dragon Roll and Caterpillar Roll. Ignore everything you know about eel and just put it in your mouth and swallow - it is really tasty. The rolls are made fresh in front of you - hence an enormous line up at lunch from 1pm. The rice is still soft and fluffy and does not have that stiff caked refrigerated taste. I also couldn't get over prices.
