“ I normally don't share experiences at restaurants. This one's different. I'm here at Sun-up Cafe just about an hour shy of their closing time of 2pm on a Saturday. And the place is packed. I come here often. The wait staff is top notch. Everyone one is polite and the food is always very good. You won't regret it if you try them out. ”

“ Good food. Quick service. Lovely custom.coffee bar inside. Good choice for breakfast. The huevos rancheros had a unique spin and was absolutely delicious. Both French toast and the Cap'n Crunch French Toast were good. Omelet was also solid. ”

“ Bright and modern shared space by a cafe and a bakery. Great menu options. Efficient and friendly staff. We ordered breakfast, and it arrived hot and delicious! Their mimosa menu was tempting with lots of fun combinations. ”

“ I had my first group breakfast today and will definitely be back. I'm allergic to dairy and gluten, and this is the first restaurant that told me they wouldn't prepare my eggs in butter and would be very careful not to cross-contaminate my meal, but it might take longer. They provided oat milk for my coffee, and it was an excellent cup of coffee. The food was wonderful and I actually felt safe eating out. I really appreciate that they were knowledgeable and thoughtful, and had oat milk on hand to accommodate me. I'm always prepared not to eat, but it's wonderful when I CAN when I am out with people. ”

“ My husband and I had an early morning physical appt and had to fast so we were starving. Thankfully pulling out of the parking lot, my husband noticed this place. We decided why not. Good thing we did! Staff was very polite. Place is simple and cute. Lots to choose from on the menu. Even realized there are a lot of mimosa and alcoholic options as well. I ordered their traditional breakfast with over easy eggs and hashbrowns. My husband ordered their western omelet with fruit. We also ordered their special to share which is salted caramel french toast with ham. Everything was delicious! Our bellies were full and happy and we were very pleased. This will be our go to after future doctor appts. Thank you for having us! ”

“ Favorite breakfast place to eat in Lake norman. When you're done eating there, make sure you buy the black powder coffee they sell. It's a local Roaster. You can drive over to black powder and asked for Drew ”

“ Brunch at its finest here in the Lake Norman area. All the favorites you'd want to see at a brunch place as well as some creative menu items added. There is a boutique coffee place inside serving up some absolutely wonderful coffee creations. The "build your own" Bloody Mary custom menu is one of a kind, as well. Each dish off the menu was fantastic. Fluffy biscuits & meaty gravy, large melt in your mouth pancakes, thick juicy sausage, fresh fruit cups, and cheesy grits better than mama makes. Your tastebuds will thank you when you treat them to Sun Up Cafe! ”

“ Great food. Great staff. Great atmosphere. The place is really clean and cozy. They serve really nice dishes. The staff are very friendly. The food is AWESOMELY & DELICIOUS. ”
