Great little cafe, but 4 * as I had to wait a substantial amount of time for my food (sausage sandwich was the only thing I ordered). The amount of time I had to wait was longer than the other cafe (3 squares cafe on Skinnergate)
The atmosphere was lovely, the staff were very kind in the way they served me. I do understand though that the amount of time that I had to wait could have been due to the cafe being fairly busy.

There's something special about Sunflower Cafe. It's small, without being cramped, cosy, without being cringe.
The food is simple and tasty. It's home made by a really small team behind the counter.
I wish more places were like this. Simple doesn't have to mean basic. Sometimes, it's all you need.

Managed to squeeze our party of 5 in at short notice on a rainy day so that was a good start. Another customer was also kind enough to move to a different table to give us more space.Friendly and helpful staff took our orders and delivered our food quickly.I had corned beef pie with chips and beans and was practically licking the plate clean.Good food, good atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff and good prices. Can't really ask for more from a café.Wheelchair accessibility: Whilst getting in the door of the café would be easy enough for someone in a wheelchair, I think the only toilet is upstairs so there is no disabled toilet as far as I'm aware.

I'm trying all the cafes in Darlington and this was next on my list. Cozy and friendly, but nothing special. I didn't try the breakfasts on offer so I can't comment on them, but they seemed popular. Prices were very reasonable. My latte was a little bitter, but the scone was OK. Because of the size of the place the smell of frying was quite strong. There are better (and much worse) cafes in the town. I'll be back again soon to try something a bit more substantial.
