Sunrise Cafe

Known For
Yellow Springs' de facto morning gathering spot with no pretense attached
Sunrise Cafe anchors Yellow Springs mornings with a vintage interior that feels genuinely lived-in rather than styled, and a local-favorite status it has held long enough to actually mean something. The menu is straightforward, the coffee is real, and the crowd is the most interesting in town.
🕐Best time to visit: When the weekend philosophers clear out around 10am
Our Take
Sunrise Cafe has the kind of lived-in vintage warmth that makes you want to linger well past your second cup — the latte art is the hook, but the local energy is what keeps people coming back. With over 1,500 ratings holding steady at 4.5, it's clearly doing something consistently right.
