Sunrise Cafe & Bakery is a wonderful spot to stop-in for a coffee, donut and breakfast. They are extremely busy I'm the main season and even maintain a good crowd in the off season as well. The donut selection varies daily and if you want a particular type, such as their coveted apple fritter, you need to arrive early. Their lunch menu is diverse and oftentimes they have special dishes that change over time. You can't go wrong with an Amavida coffee and anything from their extensive dessert selection.

Sunrise instantly became our morning breakfast stop during our stay in PCB. The atmosphere has a very laid back vibe and the staff simply top notch!

We loved ALL the food! They were fast and helpful. It was a little confusing on the order process, but we'll worth it. I had the grits bowl with sausage and it was perfect. The grits were perfectly creamy, and the sausage had good flavor and it was a great portion. We will certainly be back when we visit again

Delicious and such a cute place. My chocolate chip waffle was amazing and had a great bagel with cream cheese. My partner loved his breakfast plate as well as his fluff bar. I totally see why so many people rave about this restaurant. We will definitely be back!

This place came highly recommended for their Russian menu and it did not disappoint! I was very impressed with Sergei who makes delicious food and is so pleasant to talk to. We had everything from Shuba to Borscht and the food was made fresh and authentic. We stayed in Panama City for almost a week and went back to the cafe several times. In addition to savory dishes they also have some traditional Russian cakes such as honey cake and Napoleon and a wide variety of non Russian pastries and good breakfast and lunch menu and drinks. I highly recommend this place for their Russian food and excellent

Highly recommended. I needed a cake for our office party as well as a few side treats. The cake and treats were a huge hit in the office. It is really nice to know that they are very detailed and take pride in what they make. A true bakery and caf. I would also recommend having breakfast and lunch there. Great menu and wonderful people. Glad to support a small business in area.
