    Short Stack Pancakes
    Quinton F.

    Sunrise Memphis Absolutely the best breakfast place I've ever been to -- and my wife found it online! Sunrise Memphis is a cute little spot, neatly decorated and full of charm. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I'd love to return. It really had everything we could want in a breakfast stop.

    They opened this place in 2017 and I think it has been packed ever since?? You stand in line, (which actually can go out the door and around the building), order at the register, take a number, and they bring you the food. Self served drinks too. All the food we had was great. Steak, bacon, hashed browns (small portions), buttermilk biscuit. The real sleeper on the menu is only $3.50, a very large cinnamon roll, but it seems like it is made with biscuit dough? I would love to come here and just get that with a large unsweetened iced tea. Basically everything is a winner, the food, the service, the facility... I wish they had more booths, but in the south it seems like they are less common? All the workers have terrific attitudes, they seem happy and actually proud to be working here. They play awesome music, which add to the good vibes.

    Sunrise is hands-down the best breakfast spot in Memphis. There's no competition. Their food is outstanding which is why the parking lot is always full and there are people in every seat.

    While in Memphis, we wanted to grab breakfast somewhere near our hotel before driving to Mississippi. After seeing the 4.5 stars and it being less than a mile away, Sunrise Memphis was a no brainer. Extremely popular, so you may have to wait outside until the line dies down. For us, it wasn't a long wait and the door guy had the bubbliest personality ever.. Definitely a "morning guy".. Lol! They have a really cool menu with cooler names, I haven't had a bologna sandwich in at least 20yrs. Well dang it, give me the "P-Love", which is house smoked seasoned BBQ bologna, egg and cheese. Absolutely the best breakfast sandwich I've had in recent memory!!! We were a table of 6 and everyone enjoyed their meals. Their ordering system is pretty smooth and efficient. You stand in line to order, they give you a number and seat you, and they'll bring out your food once it's ready.. easy peezy! As long as #55 is playing at Ole Miss, we'll be flying in and out of Memphis, that said, Sunrise Memphis will see us again and they better not run out of that bangin azz bologna!! LOL

    The Kitchen Sink
    Shelby W.

    We were in town for the weekend looking for a good brunch spot, and it didn't take us long to realize that Sunrise Memphis is a hoppin' spot on Yelp. Sunrise is counter service, and don't be surprised to see the line go out the door! Luckily, we came in before the rush and were able to get our food pretty quick. There is quite the variety of options here, from different kinds of plates and bowls. I went with what seemed to be the classic option: The Kitchen Sink - eggs, grits, hashbrowns, bacon, sausage and a biscuit. And just like it sounds, it was A LOT of food! I enjoyed everything on my plate and only wish I had the room to finish it all. Sunrise Memphis is an excellent local brunch option to add to your list!!

    This place was recommended to us by a server at Blue City Cafe, and overall it was a solid experience. My bacon was a bit too crispy, and the sausage patty wasn't my favorite flavor. The eggs were definitely cooked to my liking, but they lacked seasoning. That said, the biscuit was absolutely amazing -- clearly what they're known for, and rightfully so. Our service was excellent, and my espresso martini was good and made correctly. I'd give it about a 3.8 out of 5. It's almost a 4 for me, but not quite there. Overall, still a very solid spot!

    I had my first Memphis breakfast here and they did a great job of representing. It's a spacious restaurant where you walk up to a counter, place your orders and then someone will bring your order out. There's also a self serve beverage bar. The first thing I noticed about the place is the fun and bright decor. It makes the place very inviting. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming. The menu is not very large, which I appreciate, but it seems to have something for everyone from avocado toast to breakfast tacos to omelettes. There are also plenty of sides to add on. I ordered a not so short stack with a side of bacon and eggs. Although it was a simple dish it was delicious. I'm very picky about pancakes and I have to say these were one of the best Ive had. I would definitely eat here again if I ever come Back to Memphis.

    Stopped in early on a Sunday morning for breakfast. Order at the counter and find a seat. The service was A1, everyone that we encountered seemed to enjoy being at work. The food was good! Our least favorite was the hash brown, kinda bland and a bit greasy. One pancake was enough to share, accompanied by a sammie of course. My sandwich of choice was the McBetter, sub turkey sausage. The gentleman at the counter suggested I get it with a soft scrambled egg, fire! Good biscuit, soft with still a nice bite to it. Good quality ingredients. They even have a self service coffee bar! I'll be back sooner than later.

    Awesome brunch place in Memphis! I loved the yogi bowl! It was so flavorful and so good! The black bean burger was good and the 3 hermana tacos were great too. I love that they have an adult version of chocolate milk! The line was long when we arrived but it moved quickly and we were able to order fairly quickly. The service was speedy and the overall vibe inside was really chill. Would def come back! 10/10!

    cheese grits
    Rebecca H.

    Loved our breakfast at this place. We wanted to take advantage of our last meal in Memphis with breakfast before heading out of down during our road trip. This place had very high ratings and quite the variety of menu items for breakfast: sweet, savory, mains, sides, boozy drinks, non-boozy drinks, I mean, it really has it all as far as breakfast is concerned. There were only 2 smallish available parking spots when we arrived and none when we left, which felt like a good sign. I like the format: order at the counter and get the paying over with, someone brings your food to you, then you leave whenever the fuck you are ready to go. Perfect if you are on a time limit. I didn't want to go too crazy (lol) so I went with something that felt very appropriate for the location: the dirty south with pimento cheese, fried green tomato, and pepper relish on a biscuit. I also ordered the cheese grits. GF ordered "the kitchen sink or something" with a biscuit, eggs, hash brown, grits, bacon. We also ordered a cinnamon roll to share. For our drank, we ordered the Irish coffee (iced) and a Red Bull to share. The biscuits were out of this world. Flaky, soft, warm, and delicious. The cheese grits were served in a massive bowl for a "side". They were steaming hot and incredible with the cheese. Required no additional seasoning agents whatsoever. I tried GF's hash brown and that was also incredible. They were warm and with a nice crispy edge crunch. The cinnamon roll was fantastic. Soft, gooey, just the right amount of sweetness. My biscuit sandwich was pretty good but the pimento cheese spreads made the biscuit a little soggy and fall apart. The fried green tomato wasn't crisp enough to provide any contrast in the texture. It was hard to eat and I didn't feel compelled to finish it. It wast he only less than stellar part of the meal. Overall, eating here was a very enjoyable experience. Just a lil feedback for the place: the person who took our order said they didn't have cold brew despite it being on the menu so maybe removed it if you don't have it or let the cashier know you have it.

    In here today for the first time due to a recommendation from somebody. The food was good, but there was something about the pancakes that I'm not sure what it is, but I've had better. But I would definitely eat here again. The service was good and it had a nice ambience. The layout was well and overall it was a good experience.

    3 amigos, well 2 lol, and hash browns.

    It's a nice spot for brunch, but parking isn't very convenient. I'd recommend going together in one car. The food is just average

I ordered the Juniper Benedict and my friend ordered the loaded biscuits and gravy. The bacon potatoes were cooked perfectly, soft and slightly crunchy with plenty of cheese and bacon. The eggs in my eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly and they used a regular house-made biscuit that soaked up the egg yolks perfectly. The restaurant was pretty big, but the ambiance felt like a small-town diner. The staff was super kind and attentive, too. The cost is par for the course for a nice diner in a big city.
