GIVE LAUREN A RAISE!!!!! I have been to Sunshine Bistro on numerous occasions and as always, I have been welcomed politely by Lauren. Despite only ordering a lovely hot chocolate after my runs on Saturday, she has treated me with great care even though it seems to be thriving with customers! The other staff were also welcoming which made me feel right at home and, I was always delightfully served. I would most definitely recommend this restaurant to friends and I am most certainly coming back!

Today I had scrambled eggs on sourdough toast eggs under cooked., so this made the bread soggy and the bread wasn't toasted very well. My granddaughter has toasted cheese and tomato sandwich cheese looked really cheap not nice. For the prices you are charging needs to be a lot better. My sister had a toasted cheese and tomato sandwich earlier in the day at a different café was much better and came with salad and crisps half the price you are charging

A lovely discovery day 1 but day 2 not so good. I had breakfast and the food was cooked beautifully and with quality ingredients. Further, the kitchen amended the standard menu listing to what I wanted. Comfortable surrounds . Pleasant staff with largely good and speedy service. Given the table call buttons and waiting on service the 'welcome desk' is somewhat formal and unnecessary . Not the cheapest but I think with the positive experience largely appropriate ... It means it's a now and again treat rather than more regular. I will definitely be returning here. I did return the next day as it happened given I was so pleased. Alas the same breakfast was one poached egg and one tomato less than the day before. The manager did bring a second egg but was very reluctant and was abrasive rather than apologetic, suggesting I'd ordered extra the day before . Hopefully a one off blip as the food was again good and not a weights and measures issue. He then tried to charge me for the 2nd egg but finally gave in to just charging 30 p more for a one tomato less meal than yesterday ! I think they need to get their act together here as they turned a delighted returning customer into one that would consider twice about going a further time. My initial five stars across the board have been revised down.

We just wanted to make consumers aware and to be careful of vouchers being issued by sunshine. We arrived tonight wanting to use a voucher that had been bought as a gift for us to use in sunshine bistro bar and dining. When we went to use this we were told sorry you can only use this in the cafe. The voucher looks extremely similar to the cafe one and indeed we have seen the same staff in both establishments. We were told we couldn’t use the voucher and the waitress apologised that this wasn’t the only time this had occurred. Very disappointing and as a couple we wouldn’t spend £50 on breakfast! I think the cafe and bistro need to be very careful on the point of sale of these vouchers that people know they cannot use them in both restaurants.

I've been here before and liked it , so chose it to go for a birthday brunch. My eggs benedict arrived without the avocado garnish , even though I saw it on other dinner's plates , and sadly , the eggs were overdone , so no runny yolk. We didn't choose to complain , but when the waitress asked how the food was , I told her that the eggs were hard , she just walked off without acknowledgement. My friend asked for the bill and the manager then enquired after the meal and she told him that her meal was fine but mine was missing the avocado and the eggs were overdone. He didn't seem interested either. So sadly , I'm writing a review to give my feedback as it wasn't wanted at the time. We weren't making a fuss , we ate our meal and mentioned the issues only because we were asked. I thought that was the point of asking. A smile would have been nice, attitude goes a long way to making people feel welcome. It's a shame , because it has put us both off from going here again.

I've been here before , and the staff have always been great , but today was disappointed, mainly with the service, the staff couldn't even raise a smile. My eggs benedict arrived without the avocado relish and the eggs were solid. When the waitress cleared the plates she asked if everything was OK, but was so disinterested that she was walking away even as I was speaking to her. My friend asked the manager for the bill and he also enquired about the meal , she told him it was fine but there was an item missing from one plate and the eggs were overdone . Sadly , he was also disinterested. I didn't want to make a fuss as the food is usually very good , but they didn't want our feedback , and the attitude was very poor, so that's why I've written this review. It was a birthday brunch , but it felt very flat and unwelcoming, such a shame , as it has put us off from going back.

Called in for a restorative cuppa. Nice decor and service. Ordered a cold drink and a leaf tea. My hopes were high ! I don't drink coffee ... but I am a serious tea drinker ! Pot arrived, complete with infuser. I let it brew. I like 'builders tea' .... nice and strong ! Unfortunately this leaf tea didn't achieve the ranks ..... The infuser was full of leaves.... really full, but the tea (for me) failed to achieve desired strength ... ended up with a pretty weak cuppa. Everything else was nice. Fancy call button system on the tables !

Has this restaurant got new owners/management? I went in twice today. The service was ok ish the first time . The second time, around 3 this afternoon the service was poor. Staff pottered about like they were browsing at a boot fare until l rang the bell so l and my daughter in law could order, we eventually got our drinks . Then when ready to leave, 3 members of staff looked at me when l was standing at the counter waiting to pay but carried on chatting and ignored me . I am a cafe owner myself and would never treat my customers the same way. The people who were there until recently were first class when it came to service. The same can’t be said about the new staff

After waiting 15 minutes to be served ,from standing in a queue from kiosk window I noticed people who had gone into coffee shop after me , being served . I decided to try my luck at ordering inside shop. I am physically disabled and struggled to gain access to counter in cafe because of lack of room and the cafe full of customers. I was met with a very rude woman who said ,What do want…Not can I help! I replied would like to order please . She said can’t order in here go to outside window. I stated I had being queued outside and had Not be served. She replied, we are very busy. I was embarrassed and turned around left the cafe struggling yet again to leave the cafe because lack of space because of my disabilities. I will not ever again use your facility ,or will not recommend it to anyone I know. I live in this area There are lots of coffee shops and eateries which are more welcoming with better customer services in Hythe.
