Sleepy Opossum Cafe

If you love artisan, homemade, creative, and locally-sourced food then Sleepy Opossum is the place for you! I love how the menu changes slightly based on what's growing for the season. The "hashbrown bowls" are a family favorite! I always get one of their in-season lattes, made with homemade syrups/flavors. Such a treat! The vibe of the cafe reminds me of my grandmother's home so I get all the cozy, warm and nostalgia feelings, which makes me feel so happy. Pro tip: if you're going for breakfast, make sure to arrive EXACTLY when the doors open, or you may not get a seat and have to wait a while because 417 loves Sleepy Opossum! There's truly nothing like it in Southwest Missouri, and I'm so glad we have this gem of a restaurant in our city! Keep up the good work you guys!! <3

I guess if you know anything about food, you’d never rate this place a 5. If you have been outside of Springfield, then you know hipster joints like this are a no go. 50 minutes to get one bowl of bland soup, it was like raw water with fried egg. The hash brown bowls missing bacon, terrible vinegared collard greens. Had to beg for water. If you are in google, I recommend not following the silly crowds and going to a place like el cafecito or somewhere slightly on drive. Very underwhelming, felt uncomfortable paying for my meal. Response to the owner: Well that’s google reviews are meant for. So others also understand that they might need to wait for the food and it is not what they seem. As an owner, you should also taste when food leaves your kitchen. Instead you chose to gaslight my par

🍞Sleepy Opossum Café – Cozy Neighborhood Brunch in Springfield, MO We stopped by Sleepy Opossum Café on a weekend morning for brunch and really enjoyed the warm, friendly neighborhood feel. The café was buzzing — we waited about 30 minutes, but the wait staff was kind and welcoming, which made the time fly by. For our meal, we ordered a quiche, the “Breakky Salad”, and a side of biscuit and gravy. I especially loved my salad — fresh greens, tasty toppings, and a slice of their homemade rosemary bread that tasted just like it was baked with love. The quiche was a little dry for my taste, and the biscuit ended up being firmer than I hoped, but they were earnest, comforting dishes. 🌿 Sleepy Opossum Café is a charming, cottage-core–style breakfast spot in Springfield. The owner built the ca

Now I’m not writing this because my sister owns the place. But watching her grow her business from a small pull behind trailer, to what she has now, I am nothing but impressed. Her food quality has always stayed the same. Her customer service is unmatched. The atmosphere and vibes the second you walk through the door is always welcoming and is a safe place for anyone who steps foot inside. The local produce, meats, coffee and everything else is top quality. Each dish is made with love. She works so hard to provide the best dining experience paired with food you can trust and feel good about eating. I’ve had just about everything she offers and I’m still blown away with the new creations she comes up with. If you’re local to Springfield, or just passing through, please make a stop in and gi
