Breakfast sandwich
Kurt K.

Local place that enjoys a loyal crowd. But hard to believe it has been seven years since I did a review. I know we have been a few times and the photos show that. Went for mid week breakfast. Got a table right away and ordered our drinks. Our server was attentive and did a good job. Two egg breakfast has a huge portion of eggs and were ok. Kind of greasy eggs. Bacon was crisp and the home fries also a bit greasy. Build your own omelette was ok. Toast was dry. Not much butter and none on the table. I slathered some strawberry jam on it and choked it down. The home fries were not good. Greasy and unflavorful. Was hoping it would be great but sadly not worth the drive south. Protip: There is a military discount on the service members meal. THANK YOU Sunnyside Cafe.

Tried out this cafe before hitting the beach and loved the vibes! Food: was pretty good! A little overpriced in my opinion but still enjoyed it. Service was great! Loved the ambiance and beachy vibes !

Whenever in Melbourne I stop into the Sunnyside cafe for breakfast it is very clean with great service by caring an attentive staff. They serve large portions,of home style food,

Sunny Side Café is a charming spot conveniently located just a short walk from the beach, perfect for a relaxing bite before or after some sun and sand. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, whether you choose to sit inside or enjoy the fresh air outdoors. The meals taste just like home-cooked comfort food, and everything we tried was fresh and flavorful. Big bonus: their iced caramel latte is absolutely delicious! Great coffee, great food, and very reasonable prices. A definite favorite when I'm in the Melbourne Beach area.

Breakfast

A great place to eat in the Melbourne Beach area According to their website, they are, "Dedicated to serving great food, breakfast that will get your day to the best possible start." This was my first time trying this restaurant after having driven by this location for over 20 years. It is in a strip center built on the north side of Beach Avenue and mere steps from the beach. There is plenty of parking. They have inside or outside seating. The outside seating is small 2-person tables set on each side of the walkway with metal chairs. The inside seating is mostly a series of booths and some seating at a counter to the right as you enter. The staff was very friendly and efficient. We saw and were helped by at least 5 different waitresses. The menu is a good selection of breakfast favorites from basic eggs, to omelets to French toast and pancakes. I tried the bacon scrambler with home fries and an English muffin. The food came out quickly. It was a good portion and was very tasty. I like the English muffin the most. Overall, between the service, location, food, and cost I thought this was a very nice restaurant and I would recommend it to anybody wanting a delicious meal in the Melbourne Beach area.

Got a late start to the day so lunch was top of the order. Found the previous Yelp reviews helpful in this find. Talk about Hot or Cold & Plenty of It!!! First off, super friendly staff as we walked in the door, " have a seat anywhere you like guys" the hostess said. I like that, personally. Fairly simple menu as we chose the burger options. Mama had the Greek Burger while I chose the Brazilian Burger. Talk about everything including the kitchen sink in the Brazilian, holy cow! Everything was delicious. Service was awesome for this diner eatery. Thanks to the Sunnyside Cafe Staff, you all were awesome today.

Pumpkin French toast
Bailey W.

Such a great little spot! We came here after our first choice was closed but I'm so glad we did as it exceeded any other breakfast spots in the area! When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by at least 3 different people. The staff is incredibly attentive and friendly, and happy to answer questions. They had a ton of unique dishes in special when we went so we tried the Cajun Bene and the pumpkin French toast. We like to split a savory and sweet dish. Both were awesome! The bene had fried green tomatoes, shrimp, and a red pepper sauce. The red pepper sauce on the Cajun Bene was *chef's kiss* and had large chunks of real peppers in it. Yum. The French toast was not overly sweet (which is great) so it was easy to enjoy too. Perfectly pumpkiny with not too much "spice" like some places. The food and service were just both fantastic. I can't wait to return to try more unique specials!

All American Breakfast with Country Fried Steak. Comes with 2 eggs hash browns and toast $9.75.
Mike S.

First time a Sunnyside and I can say it was a very good experience. We came on a Sunday morning are 9:00AM and were able to quickly be sat even with limited seating. ( good thing we did because are 9:30-10:00AM the crowd started forming.) The wait staff quickly came and ordered our drinks then our meals. I ordered the American Breakfast 2 eggs over easy with Country Fried Steak. It also came with choice of bread and side and I went for hash browns all for only $9.75. Our food came out rather quickly and everything looked great. Everything was perfect good as well. Gotta love with your eggs are perfectly runny. Honest what I problem liked the last on my plate was the Country Fried Steak. I was good but a little small and had some bits that were a little more chewy then I like. The is a very nice small cafe that I will for sure return to. It's the best breakfast I have had in Melbourne Beach so far as well. The wait staff was amazing and extremely friendly as well. I might not get the Country Fried Steak again but they also have a bunch of specials that sounded amazing that I plan to try. 4 of which were different spins of Eggs Benedict which they already had another 4 of in the menu. Will be coming back. My even have myself a mimosa or a draft next time!

About a month ago, we drove down to Melbourne Beach to visit family. After a morning at the beach, we searched on Yelp for some breakfast and our search led us to Sunnyside Cafe (SC). - Parking - Center lot. - Vibe - It has a diner feel with a beach town vibe. There is seating available along the counter and the rest of the seating consists of booth seats and regular tables and chairs. There are also tables outside and the great thing is the outdoor space is covered. The restaurant is spacious and a decent size. The dining area is open and bright with yellow and blue colors. - TLC - We were quite a large party and Jesse took care of us. Another lady jumped in to assist with extra needs and distributing the orders. They were very polite and helpful and seemed to be used to the hustle and bustle in the restaurant, which is probably business as usual, given that they are one of the few breakfast establishments on that stretch of beach. - Eats / Refreshments - Cappucino - The Cappucino was served in a double walled glass and pretty in presentation. The Cappucino tasted great, but my only complaint was that it was filled to the brim that it was overflowing and made the glass a little messy to handle. Pitaya (Dragonfruit) Bowl - I haven't had a good Pitaya bowl since we left Hawaii, mostly because it's hard to find in Savannah. I'm glad that I decided to get one at SC, because it did not disappoint. I swapped out the coconut with granola (just a personal preference). It was a generous portion as you can see from my picture. The bowl is shallow, but wide and it was loaded with fresh bananas, strawberries and blueberries on a bed of the smoothly blended Pitaya mix. The consistency was the perfect, think smoothie. My recommendation is to ask for some honey and drizzle that on top! So yummy! Pitaya is such a gorgeous fruit, but looks can be deceiving as it lacks the sweetness that generally characterizes a fruit, so a little bit of honey, I think, elevates it just a little! I was quite full and a great meal to start my day. Banana bread - They make their Banana Bread in house and to warm it up, they place it on the griddle with some butter and fry it up for a couple of minutes. It was a thick slice and a tad bit oily from the butter, but still good. I especially enjoyed the crispiness of the crust. Kiddos - Our kids each had a Kid's Pancake plate with their own choice of sides. They were the size of the dinner plate and a large portion for a Kids meal. My kids, although small, can eat their weight in food, so their plates satisfied their hunger until at least lunch time haha. Overall, great breakfast spot in this area! Friendly service, generous portions and more importantly, fresh ingredients! I would definitely go back again when we go back to the area to visit! Stay safe, Friends!

It can get a little busy and sometimes your order does not come out exactly as you asked for it. However, that is part of the charm. The food is excellent, fresh, and feels like you're eating at home. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Sometimes you are treated to live music. Hope to return here for years to come.

Been years since we visited…read more We were sat by a very enthusiastic young man. Grabbed a table by the window and ordered an iced mocha latte. It was very sweet albeit with plenty of caffeine. :) The staff were very engaging. Almost to a fault. Sometimes a little space is nice. Food came out and it was very good. No condiments used. They have a pepper "salsa" on their roasted tomato that was very good. My omelette was large and very good. Very well balanced ingredients ratio. The two egg breakfast was also very large and well done. As we finished up the owner started playing guitar. Electric acoustic version. A little loud. So we let him know as did another two top. Whoa that went over like a lead ballon. If he had lost the amp it probably would have been pleasant. Pretty pricy but I do think it was a good value. Staff needs to turn it down a notch or two on "how is it" questions.

**INITIAL REVIEW**…read more For me, Historic Downtown Melbourne has become one of my most-visited hubs for socialization, especially in south Brevard County. Thanks to the brilliant people at DTMB or Melbourne Main Street, the area has been improving. I definitely like the new businesses coming in, taking a slice of history in their own sake. Once such place is Villon Coffee. Originally, a "food truck" as the are more of a coffee truck, Villon Coffee (which I will shorthand simply to Villon for the remainder of the review) has expanded to the point they now have two brick-and-mortal locations. The one I like to frequent is, of course, Historic Downtown Melbourne. Now to be fair, they are an a-okay coffee shop, but mostly because of how management runs it more so than the vibe and staff. The vibe and staff: excellent! Definitely have a lot of good things to say about Ally. However, how management (whom I never seen onsite whatsoever) runs the location, is no bueno! Though an address is given, Villon is located on the southside of New Haven Ave. that runs though Historic Downtown Melbourne. If it helps, they are more on the eastside of the town stretch just west of the train tracks. Villon is a smallish location consisting of a main serving room and a "waiting" room that showcases their wares for sale. The waiting room also has an island table and couch, which works well as board games (though most of them are incomplete) are available for guests. The pinball machine, Godzilla, requires 50 cents to play. The main serving floor has bar seating along the storefront window, serving counter, and the side window. As for decor, a lot of yellow, black, and greys in modern art triangles and flowers that highlight their color scheme. Also, the restroom is gender neutral, which is fine as it is a single-person restroom. Usually clean and stocked, but not the best looking restroom. Ever seen a grungy warehouse look in a restroom but was still clean? That's what Villon here has. This is where things are critical. For some reason, management usually has only one person on staff. Now to be fair, most of the day only needs one person, but during rushes, you'll end up waiting. This is not a food truck which is understandable why there is a wait, but an actual brick-and-mortar restaurant. And given its small size and menu, you'd think they would be able to keep rotation on goods up to par. There have been times I came in in which Ally has said they don't have something or another. This goes for their food which I am unsure is either premade or storebought. Needless to say, they don't have the space to cook anything from scratch, so everything is "heat and ready to serve." There is a couple of coolers with bagels, and oatmeal bites ready to eat, though. But the food that really stands out is the wares made by Chef & Summers. They are delicious, but sometimes, they can be sold out. Villon is also quite innovative in their drinks, more so than any other coffee shop I can think of locally. Ergo, they get the hit-or-miss judgment a tad bit more, but because they are being bold more so than being either good or bad. Overall, Villon, as mentioned earlier, is an a-okay place. The staff does the best they can with what they have and what they are given. But I guarantee you they'd be better with more management support. Since I have visited this place numerous times prior to my initial review, I can definitely give Villon a solid three out of five stars with the aforementioned points above. If management helps improve this location, then maybe, just maybe, I will give them a fair shake and update my review. Until then, good place to stop by if you are in the area and you just need a stop to go to, but definitely better coffee shop options out there. My suggestion: The Sun Shoppe at the west end of Historic Downtown Melbourne or Apocalpyse Coffee Roasters heading north on Babcock St. right at the intersection with US-1.

Last stop on my Florida adventure is located in Melbourne. This cute little coffee spot offers a…read morevariety of drinks and grab and go items. I had the iced, matcha latte. I know I know matcha tastes like you slid into outfield and ate grass but hear me out. It actually isn't so bad I topped it with vanilla foam and although it made it less healthier it's way better than a wheat grass shot! Pricing is reasonable and they have these muffins that was pretty much the same price as my drink but they are big enough to share. Service was quick and the staff friendly. Since you didn't get your Starbucks bear cup protest by going here instead: you won't be disappointed! J/k Oh, I forgot to mention my friend grabbed this cute shirt for me because I packed all long sleeves for my trip and it was hot. Leave it to me to pack for a cold freeze and then fly home the day before it happened! Anyways, if you're in the area or just passing through make a stop here.
