There’s a good mix of sweet, savory and sippable options, so there’s something that fits whatever you’re craving when you sit down for brunch.”

“Every year, our guests tell us how much they’ve been waiting for the Pumpkin Pancakes to come back, so that’s always a fun one for our team,” said Mike Stasko, president of Sunny Street Café. “Whether it’s a family pancake tradition, catching up over coffee or a leisurely weekend brunch, we want Sunny Street to be the place guests think of when they’re looking for a great meal and time around the table this fall.”
