Lunchtime just got a serious upgrade. 🥖😍

We want to let you in on one of our most underrated menu items — the Tuna Baguette at Mel's Sunrise Cafe & Bakery.

Here's what goes into every single one, made fresh to order:
🐟 A full can of tuna — not a scoop, a full can
🧅 Fresh diced onions
🥄 Creamy mayo
✨ Our house-made Mel's Sunrise Seasoning (yes, it makes a difference)
🥖 An 8-inch European-style baguette with that perfect crust
🥬 Crisp fresh lettuce
🍅 Ripe tomato slices

And just when you thought it couldn't get better — a bag of chips on the side, included. 🙌

No shortcuts. No pre-made anything. Just real ingredients, real flavor, made the moment you order it.

Perfect for a lunch that actually satisfies without weighing you down. Whether you're stopping in between errands or taking a proper break — pull up a chair. We've got you.

📍 4402 Del Prado Blvd S, Cape Coral, FL
🕐 Mon–Fri: 7 AM–2 PM | Sat: 8 AM–2 PM | Sun: 8 AM–1 PM

A crown worth arriving early for.

Our Fruit Crown starts with 24 layers of real-butter laminated pastry, baked golden and crisp, then filled with silky vanilla custard and finished with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and a light dusting of powdered sugar.

Crisp, creamy, fruity and made for a very good morning.
Stop by while they’re in the case.

This season reminds us that while some things must fall away, they make room for something new to grow. 🍂

We’ve been working behind the scenes, dreaming, creating, and preparing for a new chapter that still holds everything you’ve come to know and love about us. Same heart. Fresh start. Something new is just around the corner.

🌅 Stay close… we can’t wait to share what’s next.
