Great location very clean modern look. Down fall was that food that’s on the menu doesn’t get served until 12pm. They have premade food that can be heated on display.

Sunshine Roasters isn't just my favorite coffee shop—it’s been a part of my life for years. I started going to their Larchmont location back in high school, and when they opened the new spot over a year ago, I was there from day one. They've been nothing but wonderful ever since. The service here is truly something special. The team treats you like family—always warm, genuine, and happy to see you. It’s the kind of place where they remember your name and your order. Now, as someone who’s a bit of a coffee snob, I can say without hesitation: the coffee here is some of the best I’ve ever had. Every cup is smooth, flavorful, and perfectly made. And If it isn't your cup of "tea", they are extremely accommodating. It’s obvious they care deeply about quality and consistency. And don’t get me started on the pastries. Always fresh, always delicious, and the perfect companion to whatever you’re sipping. I highly recommend the cherry danish! Sunshine Roasters has become a daily ritual for me—not just because of the coffee, but because of the heart and soul they put into everything they do. Whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, you’ll feel right at home. Can’t recommend it enough. I also can't believe this is the first time I'm leaving them a review!

You gotta come in and try it out! The coffee is BIG DELISH! Mariela, the owner is absolutely fantastic and her team provides the space with a real homey-rustic vibe. Different languages, laughter and energy fills this gorgeous space and man that coffee has one of thee best roasts I've ever had! I'm a customer from the BX and I'll always be stopping by as long as theirs a cold brew and sweet treats are here

What a great place to have coffee. I consider myself a coffee snob and try to find coffee roasters shops because I know that their beans are great. The lovely Argentinian lady that took our order was so sweet and made our experience fabulous. I ordered the pourover which it is only available for table order normally and I wanted it to go and she kindly offered to do it. Finally I stayed and savoured it there. Thanks again, gracias Thanks :)

My wife and I each got the purchase grilled cheese and absolutely loved it. The cold brew was incredible and great size for a “medium.” Pleasant, quick service. We will be back!
