Ok, so Sunrail is set to launch this Thursday, May 1st – a commuter train running through Central Florida from DeBary to the north to Sand Lake Road to the south, mostly from 6am-8pm hours during the weekday with free wifi, power outlets for charging laptops and phones, etc. so you can get your work on while going to work.
SunRail trains will arrive at each station every 30 minutes during peak service times when traffic on the roads is typically at its worst. During non-peak periods, trains will operate every 2 hours. Initially, there will be no service on the weekends. They hope to expand the network and hours in the future depending on demand.
It costs $2 to get on and an extra $1 for every time you cross a county line, but the first two weeks in May, it’s free to ride.
Connect using Lynx buses in Seminole and Orange Counties http://www.golynx.com/ (Lynx will be updating services to about 30 minutes per hour during peak hours at the stations)
While coming up with this list of local Orlando restaurants (no chains), I realized that many of the stations would require some other form of transportation such as biking or bus from the station to reach the foodie destination.
The only two stops which appears to have the easiest access to foodie destinations by foot would be the Winter Park and Church Street Station stops. Hopefully, the other stations will be able to provide better modes of transportation for the “last mile.”
This list is by no means final, so please suggest your favorite foodie spots near the Sunrail stations in the comments below! Make sure to call to check for business hours, too.
It’s also important to note: no food is allowed on the trains, so finish your meals before boarding, at least for now.

Great list! We’re thinking of taking the train to the Hourglass Brewery, an 8-minute walk from the Longwood station.
Updated!
Love this list! I’d add Schumann’s Jagerhaus to my list of must-visit restaurants near the Church Street Station 🙂 Yummy German food!
updated! Thanks Carolyn!
Great job Ricky! Look forward to eating my way across city lines! A group of bloggers will enjoy riding the new Sunrail on Friday, May 9th and stopping to eat along the way! Look forward to seeing everyone that can attend!
Hi Ricky! Let’s not forget about The COOP!! Walking distance from Winter Park!
very true!! added now!
Thanks so much for putting this list together! We were planning to take the train today and stop off for lunch, and this list makes it so easy, thanks so much!!!
awesome
[…] 1. Tasty Chomps – Foodie Guide to Sunrail Stations […]
Hamburger Mary’s is on the opposite side of the track at Church Street.
thank you, we wwere trying to decide where to ride next and this helped tremendously!!!
such a pleasure Cathy! Glad you liked it!
Thanks Aaron! Hamburger Mary’s is added!
Don’t forget The Church Street Tavern and their awesome handmade pirogies!
There’s nothing listed in DeBary! Not very far from the Sunrail station is Parkview Cafe. They have a great selection of coffees and Panini’s for the commuter on the go. They also have a very good selection of beer and wine. At 1.6 miles away from the station it’s a bit of a walk but the food is good. It’s worth checking out. 275 S Charles Richard Beall Blvd #107, DeBary, FL 32713
Oasis Cuban Cafe is right next door to Hourglass Brewery, they had delicious food and FULL BAR!!! It’s about a ten minute walk from the train station
