“ Great coffee, awesome staff, and dog friendly! This is our happy place on Sunday mornings after a walk on the nearby railtrail with our dog. Their carrot walnut cake is my weekend treat, the breakfast of champions...though lots of other fresh savory items on the menu too :-) ”
“ What a great place! Stopped in there today for the first time, and was really impressed by their delicious sandwiches (we had the Sabich and the Broccoli Rabe), cookies and coffee. Really pleasant vibe, too — good music, friendly staff and lotsa comfortable places to sit. Will definitely return soon! ”
“ What a lovely place! The egg sandwich was fire. One of the best I ever had and I had a fair share. Very high quality ingredients. We also had corn bread special and it was also extremely delicious ... ”
“ Love this place! Great for lunch or grabbing a coffee on the go. Their catering options are incredible and all of the sandwiches are super yummy. The space is cute with plenty of seating and tons of knick-knacks and specialty kitchen/cooking goods on top of a wide selection of beans. ”
“ What a lovely place! Just passed through town, and dropped in to try and find some decent coffee... amazing coffee here, and they also have a great menu with a ton of variety of food options for dietary restrictions. I’ll drop by here every time I’m in town ”
“ Sometimes when you go off the beaten path, you get a wonderful surprise like Morning Sunshine. We actually tried to go to another coffee shop for breakfast but a twist of fate brought us to this gem. I didn’t know what to expect and breakfast is usually boring with egg and cheese but Morning Sunshine mixes creativity and fresh ingredients to bring breakfast to a new happy place. I wish it was in my town in NJ because I would be there all the time. These were the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve had perhaps ever. Totally blown away. The interior is bright and clean. They also have cool products stocking the shelves like Kewpie mayo and Momofuku noodles/hot sauce. Very quirky. ”
“ What a gem! Beautiful, spacious, great service, delicious food! ”
“ This is my go to spot. Coffee is on point. Sandwiches are amazing. The Bacon, Egg & Cheese w/ Harissa Ketchup is next level. The Chicken Chubby is also a fave. Can't say enough good things about the staff and owners. They bring a great vibe to Ellenville and have been bringing it for years. See you on the sunny side of the Gunks! ”
