Ruby Sunshine
Brunch born in New Orleans. Serving brunch and eye-opening cocktails 7 days a week.
Ruby Sunshine brings the unique flavors and hospitality of New Orleans to our all-day brunch and eye-opening cocktails. We use fresh and local ingredients whenever possible, prepare food to order from our scratch kitchen, and give back to the communities we serve.
At Ruby Sunshine, we proudly embrace diversity and inclusion among our team members, guests, and vendors. This Juneteenth, we honor Black Americans and their fight for equality.
Let's remember "Freedom Day," the day the last enslaved Black people were freed in Texas on June 19, 1865. As we acknowledge the pain of the past, we also celebrate the perseverance of those who came before us and recognize both the progress made and the work still ahead. As Rep. Al Edwards, the Father of Juneteenth, stated, "Every year we must remind successive generations that this event triggered a series of events that one by one defines the challenges and responsibilities of successive generations. That's why we need this holiday.”
Join us in celebrating the spirit of Juneteenth and the ongoing journey toward equality and justice, a journey that should be carried by all and a right enjoyed by all. ❤️

Our Story
Ruby Slipper Restaurant Group brings the unique flavors and hospitality of New Orleans to everyday breakfast and brunch at all Ruby Slipper Cafe and Ruby Sunshine locations. Founded in post-Katrina New Orleans, Jennifer and Erich Weishaupt revitalized a blighted corner store into a cozy restaurant with the hope that it would help draw people back to the community – and that’s exactly what it did. In the decade since opening that neighborhood storefront, the number of restaurants have grown, but the same powerful sense of homecoming is still present in each location. Both Ruby Slipper Cafe and Ruby Sunshine restaurants remain owned and operated by the original founders. They serve creative twists on brunch classics and eye-opening cocktails seven days a week.
