About Us
Quick Bites
We know it's tough to get something to eat or a good cup of coffee going in the morning or get out of the office for a long lunch. We're good at getting you really good quality food, fast...and one great cup of coffee. Order at the counter, grab a coffee or something cold from the fridge, and wait for your name to be called. You can enjoy your meal here or head out. Either way, it won't take long to get your breakfast or lunch at The Sunrise Cafe' in Carlisle!
Me and my kids
In the middle, me (Tara, originally from Long Island). That's my son Tommy...the mind behind the glazed donut breakfast sandwich on my menu, and it's aptly named after him. And there's my daughter Sara, the creator of the Boston Cream cream cheese. Of course, I then had to name that bagel and cream cheese combo "Sara's Sweetness." Sara runs errands for the cafe' when she's not working or doing school work, and Tommy is AROTC at Virginia Military Institute, so he comes in to eat when he's home 馃檪
There’s history there
Our cafe’ is situated in the home of John Hays, a Civil War soldier, an entrepreneur who began Frog, Switch and Mfg. Company in 1886, and a lawyer. He purchased the home from his uncle in 1876.聽聽The picture is the home after it was built around the original stone house. Take a look around at the photos and historic background while you’re here.聽聽We refinished the original wood floors, we exposed and repointed the original exterior stone house walls found behind the interior drywall, rebuilt the outside patio (it had been removed), and preserved as much of the original home that we found as demolition took place. We’re proud to show
Thank you to...
The Carlisle Borough and The Cumberland County Redevelopment Authority for providing financial assistance that allowed me to open my cafe'!
We are not allergen-free; our kitchen uses nuts, dairy, soy, and wheat.
