Family owned business! Although some language barrier, they are still kind and respectful to costumers. The milk teas are great and food is overall good. The buns are cheaply priced and super filling. This place is perfect for a cheap meal.
Cheap place good service however not
No English, like at all. It’s like point and guess and maybe a word once in awhile someone’s speaks English
They take credits cards but prefer Zelle or cash. If you’re confused start pointing to things and ask shrimp? Beef? Pork? They will catch on and tell you.
Don’t eat the egg custards they are not not sure why cus I eat all their other deserts.
Very friendly and very old school. But they make everything...read full review

The elderly lady behind the counter was very friendly. I bought the Hong Kong egg custard tart and Portuguese egg tart. Both great tasting! They were 3/$3.50

Sunlight Cafe is a charming hole-in-the-wall bakery/cafe in Chinatown, known for serving good old-fashioned Chinese comfort food. Portions are generous for the price, making it a favorite among older generations and younger crowds who often come for carryout. Breakfast options include a congee with pork and century egg combo, accompanied by a coffee and Chinese bun. Prices are relatively affordable, though customers may find some unexpected costs or discrepancies in pricing. The cafe is small, with limited seating, and can get busy, leading to a disorganized queue and boxes and utensils scattered about. Some reviews mention that the dining area could use more cleanliness, with reports of filth and insects like flies. Despite these minor issues with the environment, Sunlight Cafe remains popular for its delicious food, including extremely fresh bread and wonton soup, and its friendly atmosphere. It is still worth a visit, especially for those looking to enjoy tasty carryout items.
