Neihu District, Taipei City｜Sunriental cafe

Have been here on several occasions. Never been disappointed. Amazing food, coffee, cookies and friendly staff. Owner is very nice too. Come here for a little work, chat or just to relax.

This is my favorite cafe in all of Taipei! I stumbled upon this little gem on the advice of a neighbor and it quickly became one of my favorite places to grab brunch or a delicious coffee in the whole city. Everything I've ordered off of Sunriental's menu has not only been delicious but the presentation is also exquisite! You never thought it would be possible to make a bowl of muesli and yogurt with fruit beautiful, right? Well, the staff at Sunriental does! Sunriental is also fantastic if you're crazing a Western-style breakfast or lunch foods (i.e. avocado bruschetta or grain bowls anyone?). It's really hard to find a good salad in Taipei but Sunriental has them. The owner, Elvis, went to culinary school in the U.S. and speaks perfect English. You'll often find him in the store on the weekends serving up gourmet coffee and food with a smile. I also really enjoy the ambience of the cafe. It's clean, quiet, and has cozy nooks for meeting up with friends or just enjoying a coffee by yourself. It's a calm little oasis when it's a million degrees outside and you just want to enjoy an iced coffee with a croissant or a sandwich baked on fresh sourdough bread. Did I mention they bake their own bread? It's worth a trip for their fresh-baked breads alone. They also have beautiful desserts like raspberry tartes and dessert croissants. I absolutely recommend Sunriental cafe and love that they're in my neighborhood!

Wonderful food. Wonderful people. Can’t ask for more!
