This place was GROSS. The entire place smells sickly sweet, like cherry floor cleaner mixed with urine. The interior is run down and dirty...would it kill you wipe down the surfaces every now and then?? There are literal stains running down the walls and dust...on the tops of everything. I was going to stay for brunch but I ended up getting a coffee instead... which was luke-warm and weak. What a disappointment. There are so many other better brunch places in Victoria. This place is nasty as hell.More

Was told by a local to stop in here for Breakfast, but to be early as it was small. We showed up and had to wait, but the food, service and atmosphere was fantastic! We had the Traditional Eggs Benny and it was the best...Eggs Benny I’ve had in years! Most of the breakfast joints in Victoria have become all show and no good! Any time in Victoria this is a must stop breakfast joint! Old school service and food! Clearly these people know how to treat their customers!More

Went for breakfast the other day. Person I went with wanted to go. It’s disgustingly dirty little place. The food was greasy and tasteless except for the copious amounts of salt. Also masks were not always being warn but staff. I did not eat my...food and will never go backMore

Went for brunch at this small cafe as it was recommended. The brunch was prepared quickly and was good. However, the small cafe is very dirty and it looks like nothing has been cleaned in a very long time. This was disappointing because the food...was good. We could not return knowing how dirty the establishment is, which is unfortunate.More

Our first visit we had to wait for a table, It is a small place, But does have outside seating for those who can brave the cold in February. Staff are friendly and wearing a MASK is optional. (the way it should be.) Food is...very good, Went for our second visit today and where the first ones in the door. It does not get 5 stars as the Coffee is not great, This is the West Coast and we like good coffee, That said, Most restaurants have crappy coffee, Which is why there is a coffee shop on most corners in town. Well worth a visit.More

Sunnyside Cafe is our "go-to" place in Victoria for our regular weekend breakfasts and for my lunch meetings with clients during the week. For value and quality, Steph, Brendan and their friendly staff serve one of the best breakfast and lunch experiences in Victoria. Sunnyside...is very popular, so expect a bit of a line-up at peak times. If you're patient, you will be rewarded.More

Staff not wearing masks (while cooking!) and no one required to have vaccination. Would be one thing but also the hollandaise is terrible and my dad had the worst huevos rancheros he’s ever had. Don’t bother, Esquimalt is also gross anyways.

Walked to this breakfast spot. You order before you sit down. We waited while three people ordered in front of us. When they left, we stepped up and the two waitresses virtually ignored us and walked by us several times with not even a smile...or a good morning. In these COVID times, when business has been slow you would think cafes would welcome visitors. We grew tired of waiting and left. I would not recommend this place. It is small and unfriendly.More

Sunnyside gave us incredibly quick service considering how slammed they were! We lined up outside in the rain and it was WORTH IT! The restaurant is clean, cozy and organized. The staff are hard working and friendly. Most of all, the food is incredible! The...Saxe Point Benny is the best eggs benedict I’ve had in a restaurant to date. I highly recommend trying this place out!More

I was a bit skeptical given the number of mediocre breakfast joints in Victoria. This place has become a favourite and prices are good, especially for Victoria. Best hollandaise sauce outside of my mother kitchen and very friendly staff. As with most breakfast places, there...was a line but this one is worth the wait.More

Five of us arrived around 2:30pm on September 13th, 2021. We were greeted by friendly staff, the food was great and the service and atmosphere excellent. The place also sells coffee and is licensed to sell alcohol. Great experience. We highly recommend it.

Absolutely out of the park stellar. Food and service is of the quality you will find consistent and quality. Favourite cafe in Victoria now!
