If you work in either of the Meridian Mark buildings, Sunrise Cafe is no doubt the most convenient lunch option. Food is typically average. Service is great. My only complaint is the price of menu items for what you get. I’ve included two photos of two BLTs. One from Sunrise Cafe and one from Sunny Day Cafe just up the street. Sunrise markets their BLT as “not your typical BLT” but it comes with bacon, lettuce, and tomato…furthermore, fries are a $2.50 up-charge. The only thing not typical about it is the price. You will absolutely get charged extra for convenience at Sunrise. Prices in photos include tax and exclude tip.
The rest of the menu items at Sunrise are equally overpriced. I’m sorry to leave this review as I’ve been eating at Sunrise for a couple years now and always have great service but….save yourself the money and go somewhere else for the same food or better.

Wonderful! I hadn’t been in years do to moving out of state but glad it’s still fab! I couldn’t quite understand the location in a office building in Carmel but it works. Probably perfect for the suit crowds and catering. Perfect!!

It felt like a senior citizen cafeteria. While the food wasn't bad, it wasn't inspiring either. The service was very good though, kind and engaging.

Usually the service is a 4.5/5 and food is 5/5. However, my only complaint... i ordered the traditional eggs Benedict and my eggs were closer to medium... i had 1 very small runny egg out of 2. All in all, service was great and so was the atmosphere. I don't get to this area for breakfast, but this is definitely a return facility.

I rate a five star because...first compliments too the Chef. The food was A-1 lemon waffle never had that before it was top tier. The customer service were very kind to us. Atmosphere was friendly vibe. I recommend this restaurant to give a hard try.

Well let’s get this straight…this restaurant is a classic and really doesn’t need another five-star review, but here we go…
Every time I dine at Sunrise Café, there’s a personable greeting, usually from Jack—who always gives me the table I want and reassures me that I can still order breakfast even though it is 10:59! (Note: the lunch menu starts at 11:00 and includes some breakfast items.)
Today, my server was Becca, she was literally perfect. She made great suggestions. She was very attentive, but not overly attentive. She was always smiling and very personable.
Becca’s recommendation was something I had overlooked on the menu and it was delicious!
I ordered the bagel with over easy eggs, plus hashbrowns, crispy bacon, and you guessed it a side of French toast!
If you’re a solo traveler, writer, or working remote…if you’re a big party or a family with kids…it doesn’t really matter this staple in Carmel, Indiana, is a must try for breakfast or brunch.
This eatery’s location—in the middle of the Caramel business district—makes it perfect for business meetings.
There’s plenty of space and the ambiance is uniquely Indiana. You will see pictures of the Pacers, the Colts and even images honoring public servants.
In addition to the open seating areas, some dim discrete corners are also available for those events requiring more privacy.
The food is always delicious. And the service is exceptional…Owners Lisa and Jim are there pretty much every day to make sure your expectations are exceeded!
Thank you so much everyone at sunrise Café for the years of service you’ve given to the city of Carmel! And thanks for my great breakfast! Becca’s service motivated this review!
Thanks again everyone at Sunrise Café!

Loved the sausage gravy!! It came as a side of the chicken and waffles and was delicious! The whipped maple butter on the perfect French toast was a lot but I just scraped it to the side and used what I wanted but it was VERY good. We were there on a Thursday morning around 830 and the service was wonderful. Only about 5 other tables were occupied at that time.
