Need groceries? Local cafe opens 'Sunrise Grocer' for delivery and pickup

Publish date: 2024-05-05

Sunrise Cafe in Boise and Meridian is offering groceries for pickup and delivery.

It's called Sunrise Grocer.

Groceries can be picked up at their locations at 6767 W Fairview in Boise and 805 n Main in Meridian.

Here's how it works:

  • Place an order online
  • Sunrise staff members will call to confirm pickup or delivery time for one of our scheduled times. 12pm - 2pm, 4pm - 6pm or 7pm -9pm.
  • Delivery: A Sunrise staff member will knock on your door or ring the doorbell and leave your groceries outside of the door. (Staff members will not come inside your home)
  • Pickup: When you arrive at the location, please call the number posted on the door and give a staff member your name, purchase number & vehicle information. A staff member will bring your order out to your car
  • Enjoy your groceries
  • “We guarantee we’ll have the order within 48 hours," Boomer Godsill, the owner of Sunrise Cafe, said. "We're about around 24 hours on all the orders right now, but having more options to be able to choose when you want it will just be easier for everybody.”

    More options means pickup times and items. Something that Godsill says a new website will allow. He is working with a local web developer Blue + Pine to get this done.

    Toilet paper to essential food items like meat cheese are just some items that can be purchased right now.

    “This model that we're doing is not really for us to make a ton of money or anything like that," Godsill said. "It's for us to be able to survive and provide a service to the community.”

    Godsill wants to invite local businesses to contribute.

    “I mean if you’re a small business, if you guys want to try to put a product up service up gift cards, reach out,” Godsil said.

    He says this is just one way to come together as a community and support one another. Something he says doesn't fall short in Idaho.

    “There's something that's completely different from everywhere else from the people," Godsill said. "So, the atmosphere, everything is completely different. I've never seen so many people reach out and want to know how to help, or just help as much as possible or just donate whatever they have.”

    The Sunrise Cafe is still doing to-go orders for meals.
