The Tastiest Cafes in Orlando

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (893) • $$

"Fast service, clean atmosphere and more fluffy pancakes than you will know what to do with this breakfast restaurant is incredible"

Le Cafe De Paris

★★★★☆ 4.4 (742) • $$

"I recently visited this charming spot, and I have to say, it's a cozy little gem! You order at the counter, and the staff is incredibly friendly - they gave us great recommendations and made us feel very welcome. The two-person tables are set up in the style of Parisian cafes, which is a nice touch, though they're a bit small and can be uncomfortable for eating. Still, it adds to the cozy, Parisian ambiance of the place.I was pleasantly surprised to find gluten-free options, which was a huge win for me as I was in the middle of a gluten-free phase. I opted for a sandwich with gluten-free bread and a side of potatoes, and everything was delicious! The food was not only tasty but also a good value for the quality and portion sizes.While I wouldn't go out of my way to visit, if I'm ever in the area, this will definitely be my go-to spot for a casual, cozy meal with great options - including those for gluten-free eaters!"

"This place never disappoints. I love their seasonal special menus and the prices are family friendly. They have outdoor seating as well. I highly recommend."

Grand Floridian Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (517) • $$$

"Hubs and I had our "fancy honeymoon dinner" at Grand Floridian Cafe. It was a picture-perfect dining experience from start to finish.We checked in with Zach a few minutes prior to our reservation. Zach asked us if we had any food allergies (I have a few) so we made note of that.Even though it was 12 million degrees in central Florida in October, we started with some amazing French onion soups. We also had a wonderful bread basket that we devoured. For our entrees, I had the steak and my husband had the chicken and pasta. Both entrees were cooked to perfection and tasted amazing. My pictures don't do it justice.We passed on dessert but sat and chatted as we enjoyed the hustle and bustle of the restaurant and the beautiful glass windows overlooking the rest of the property. The Grand Floridian resort is just that - absolutely grand. You don't have to be staying at the resort in order to eat at their restaurants. Our dinner came out to be a little over a hundred dollars, way less than we were expecting. Because we're Disney Vacation Club members, they took ten percent off of the total (a standard DVC perk). Grand Floridian cafe quickly became one of our favorite restaurants. We've spent more money on character meals with food that was sub-par. We will definitely be back."

Cheeser's Palace Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (376) • $$

"This restaurant is such a cute gem! The staff is so friendly and treat you like family. We had Emma as our server and she was such a delight!Their menu has a little bit of something for everyone. Breakfast and lunch options. We opted for breakfast and it did not disappoint! I had the Oscar Benedict with cheesy grits and it was so good! The bread also wasn't your traditional English muffin, it was a croissant! And it was good! If you're ever in the Clermont/downtown Clermont area, make a stop here! I definitely want to come back to try other dishes! Just know that the weekends it can be busy, so if you don't mind the wait; put your name and number down for sure!"

Another Broken Egg Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (445) • $$

"I met a friend here for breakfast this morning. This location is sorta tucked back and a good little drive from I-4. It sits in a newer looking plaza on the end. It has indoor and outdoor seating with a bar that opens up to the outside. We arrived at 9am on Saturday, and were able to get seated right away in a booth. The interior of the restaurant was very cute and clean. There was a main menu, drink menu, and a seasonal "fall" menu. I ordered the pumpkin waffle from the seasonal menu. The waffle is also served with 2 eggs and either bacon or sausage. I opted for the sausage. Everything was very good. I liked that the waffle was pumpkin flavored but also came with pumpkin butter on top and chopped pecans. The eggs were scrambled nicely, and the sausage seemed homemade and very tasty."

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (441) • $$

"I had previously eaten at the Keke's in Boca Raton. They are a chain that opened in 2006 that is based out of Orlando with locations all over Florida. According their website "Keke's Breakfast Cafe is dedicated to providing an outstanding breakfast; a meal where everything is handmade, using the best ingredients available, with fresh fruits and vegetables that are delivered daily, and using the highest quality bread and dairy products." They pride themselves on service, cleanliness, and quality and I can attest I experienced all three at Keke'sBefore heading out to Universal Studios for a day of theme park fun we were looking to fuel up on a filling breakfast and my daughter suggested coming to Keke's. There is only inside dining offered here in a room decorated in warm neutral colors. Large colorful paintings of food hang on the light brown walls. It looks almost identical to the Boca restaurant. All of the tables are booths which I love.We both started with coffee and my daughter got a breakfast combo with eggs and pancakes while had the decadent apple cinnamon French toast. They have a huge breakfast menu filled with waffles, pancakes, French toast, omelets, and combos and a lunch menu of wraps, sandwiches, paninis, burgers, and salads. We were both so full from breakfast that we didn't end up eating again until late at night when we left the park. While not the fanciest of restaurants, Keke's is a solid option that can be depended on to deliver a delicious meal at a good value."

Peach Valley Cafè

★★★★☆ 3.8 (439) • $$

"That day I was craving something that wasn't on the menu, but our server still accommodated my request, and I thought that was so nice of her. They made me a plate with chicken tenders, scrambled eggs, and gravy. All three things were amazing. The tenders were crispy, the eggs were fluffy, and the gravy was rich. The menu prices were really good considering the quality and quantity of the dishes. Someone else on my table got the peach valley skillet for $12 and another person got the smoked salmon and NY style bagel for $11. I think this is going to be one of my new go-to spots when I'm in the mood for a casual brunch. The restaurant is very cozy, and it has glass windows all around so there's tons of natural light. They also have a patio, which would be perfect for a nice outdoorsy brunch. Next time I want to try their famous apple fritters!"

Old Cuban Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.8 (411) • $$

"Solo dining waiting for car repair....great food (breakfast sandwich..delicious quesito) friendly servers and nice ambiance with a little live music on a Sunday. NICE!!"

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (326) • $$

"Yessss KeKe!! You did something right with the staff you have here. Our food? Hot, made to order, and DELICIOUS! Not a big fan of the breading on the chicken and the bacon didn't taste like anything, but overall? Yummy! Id still give you 4.5/5 for food. Service? Our server was Mia! She was incredibly relatable and charismatic. As a server myself I know the importance or making your guest feel heard and appreciated, she understood the assignment! Give her a raise. 10/5 Atmosphere? The place was clean with plenty of seating. It was quiet but not too quiet, with just enough of an ambiance to provide a welcoming space. We were just passing through Orlando on a long layover, but in so glad we passed through here. We will come back whenever we are in town again. Love from Vegas."

Another Broken Egg Cafe

★★★★☆ 4.1 (320) • $$

"My new favorite brunch spot!A Bloody Mary is key to my enjoyment at a brunch spot, and this place blew be away with their. Perfectly spicy and delicious. The chicken salad sandwich is mind blowing!!!!! Seriously one of the tastiest sandwiches I've had in a longggg time!The French toast and beignets are a sweet tooth's dream! Oh and did I mention they have a full liquor bar here??? Just add some vodka or tequila to their already-amazing fresh fruit drinks!"

Leguminati

★★★★★ 4.5 (261) • $$

"Another great lunch! I hadn't planned to eat lunch out, but I was in the area, so couldn't resist. The texture and taste of these crunch wraps is so on point. I think even a non vegan would be happy with these.The service has always been good to great and the vibe is good."

First Watch

★★★★☆ 4 (330) • $$

"Great breakfast/brunch spot. It's a chain, they're literally everywhere, and the quality is consistently good at each one we've been to. This one near UCF was no exception. Bit of a wait, but we were there at 11 am on a Saturday, so it was expected. Food was fast & delish."

First Watch

★★★★☆ 3.8 (323) • $$

"Always a fresh and delicious meal to be had at First Watch!I love coming here when they have seasonal meals with fresh new ingredients. This time, I got the carnitas Hash bowl. I love the potatoes and the lemony hollandaise sauce they use. My guest got an omelette that she says was really good, but she would've preferred the sausage to be ground up smaller. Other than that, the flavor was there!I love the farmhouse decor that all first watches have. My go to location is the one on Aloma, which has a lovely mural of the Winter Park peacocks. Each location has unique murals to where they are located, and I love it !The service at the Aloma store is very good. The servers are always extremely attentive and make sure the food comes out fast, good, and fresh!This is always one of my go to spots for brunch."

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.5 (369) • $$

"Keke's @Waterford is always consistent. Hope you are fortunate enough to get Leidy as your server as she is a joy and efficient!"

407 Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (266) • $$

"I've been coming to 407 for years since I've lived in this area pretty much my whole life and it really is THE spot for gelato and crepes! You can't go wrong with their other food options either like their flatbread or paninis, but I personally come for the dessert most of the time.They always have great service and the times I've gone have been slower so we are usually the only ones ordering at the time which means our food comes way quicker.Overall this place fills the gap in Lake Nona for gelato and crepes and they haven't let me down all these years! Highly recommend if you're looking for a great place to have tasty food, quick service, and good ambiance."

First Watch

★★★★☆ 4.1 (235) • $$

"Tried their new seasonal item, Parmesan Prosciutto toast and it was worth every bite. Such a great flavor profile and so fresh. Highly recommend this delicious item. Hope they keep it for the regular menu! Thanks Daniel for the recommendation!!"

Peach Valley Cafè

★★★★☆ 3.5 (315) • $$

"Just to start off the location parking is extremely busy so prepare to get there earlier then your eating time. Finding parking took a bit but once found I waited about 10 minutes to be seated with my girlie's. We sat inside close to the east wall. I enjoyed the open space and peaceful themed peach decor. I had the grapefruit juice with the chicken and waffles. The chicken tenders were well seasoned and juicy. The waffles were a bit dense and flavorless. The blueberry butter was not to my liking. I really enjoyed the peace and onion pepper sauce. The server who worked my table was a hoot. He was chill, friendly, and had some humor. I will definitely be back to try more things. The service was quick once we were seated. We ordered our drinks and then food. The food only took 5 to 8 mins. Thank you for the experience."

Paloma Coffee Co

★★★★★ 4.6 (179) • $

"Located on Main Street in Downtown Windermere is this amazing little coffee shop!I work extremely close to this coffee shop so I stopped in to get a late breakfast. I ordered a croissant with turkey and Swiss cheese! They have many different options such as English muffins and bagels, different meats and different cheeses for the breakfast sandwiches. To drink I got an iced Chai Tea latte, it was so good, not overly sweet. I also got some macrons! I ordered two Cotton Candy, two cookies and crème and two fruity pebbles. They were amazing!!!This coffee shop has seating inside and outside. The inside of the coffee shop is so cute and cozy with plenty of seating.The inside has a big mirror and so many plants so it feels so spacious and clean. I can't wait to come back to try some more food and drinks!"

Three Birds Cafe

★★★★☆ 4 (224) • $$

"Such a great restaurant. Heard wonderful things and had to check it out. Got a very filling chicken salad sandwich and chips and a maple pumpkin cold brew that was great. Can't wait to go back! Service was nice. You order and they bring your food to you. Very themed for the fall. Super cozy feel inside and very clean!"

One Flight Up Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.8 (236) • $$

"Great service, great smoked fish dip, and an ice cold mug to pour your favorite beer into. What else can you ask for? Well sitting on their outdoor balcony overlooking downtown is an added bonus. My server was friendly, polite, and prompt. She took my order with in minutes of my seating and my order came out shortly afterwards. Make this one of your stops while visiting historic and charming Mount Dora. Next time I'm going to try one of their desserts."

Dang Boba & Musubi House

★★★★☆ 4.3 (176) • $

"It's amazing how quickly time flies, isn't it? I decided to stop by this place after a year, and it's great to be back. I ordered a delicious jasmine green tea and a spam avocado musubi for a late lunch. The ambiance is fantastic, with trendy pop music playing at the perfect volume, creating a great atmosphere while I sip on my green tea. I must say, the service here is outstanding. The staff is exceptional and offered me some valuable advice that I really appreciated."

New General

★★★★☆ 4.3 (173) • $$

"Staff wasn't very friendly. We sat there for a bit before someone came by to clean off the table.. despite seeing us and saying they would be right back... The food was amazing though... but very pricy! Adds up real quick. $80 breakfast for 2 people"

Cafe Don Juan

★★★★☆ 4.4 (160) • $$

"Excellent Puerto Rican cafe with truly delicious coffee. Excellent service and the atmosphere is fantastic. The bread reminded me of the place I went to near Yabucoa, PR. A spot that opens from midnight to 6:00am and draws crowds every night. The Cortado was so delicious, I had to buy another one to go. I will be sure to take some of the coffee home. The cafe is beautifully decorated and has a very nice outdoor patio, and they love dogs so you can bring your pup with you to the patio only though. A great place for a visit when you're in the area. Winter Park is not what people come to Orlando for but if you've been to Disney and you had enough of it, there are many other great places to visit in the Orlando area. This one included."

Cafe 906

★★★★☆ 4.1 (176) • $

"Review will consist of 1-5 rating per section Going through, food, service, ambiance, pricing and parkingFood- 5/5, excellent quality, anything "made to order" is always done either rushed or perfectly. In the case of "906" it is done perfectly. Even croissants are made the same day, which is a long process. Service 5/5, the front "check out" spot is sort of hectic with lots of information and menu information being no available to see, so you can imagine that it can be kind of confusing. Never fear though, cafe 906 has excellent service, from the chef and owner in the kitchen to the front of house severs and staff, they helped me to break down the menu in an informative way! I love the QR code menu as it reduces waste, but if you do need a physical menu they have reusable ones as wellAmbiance 5/5, this is the easiest section to rate. It's a French cafe, expect quiet and happy moods. Decor adds to the atmosphere and vibe without rushing your mind around. And the seating is astute to the environment while also not getting in the way which is a huge plus. Pricing 4/5, quite simple this as well. If you want HIGH QUALITY FOOD, Made to order you will inevitably pay a higher price. The prices aren't to high that quality seems to be lacking, there seems to be a perfect balance of quality and price, but then again everyone loves a cheaper menu, that's just the reality of the world around us. Parking 3.5/5, being in Baldwin parking is a luxury. There is parking in the several different garages but that is also limited. Street parking is rare unless youCome in on a quiet day. Nonetheless it's still a factor. I highly recommend this cafe if you are looking for extremely high quality cafe foods and coffee. The staff are nice and very knowledgeable, browsing won't be an issue"

House Blend Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (145) • $

"This was our first time, and there were so many delicious options, we had a bit of a hard time choosing. We decided on the Breakfast Pizza, Veggie Frittata, and the Banana Walnut Oatmeal. We sipped on a cappuccino & a pumpkin spiced latte. It was definitely a bit pricier than we expected."

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.9 (184) • $$

"Food was fresh fast and amazing. I had a spinach mushroom omelette. Sooo good and the bread was delicious. I don't usually eat bread but couldn't resist. My daughter had cheeseburger and onion rings and loved them. Staff was attentive and quick"

Mecatos Bakery & Café

★★★★☆ 4 (173) • $$

"Super cute and trendy cafe with fresh food, nice variety of sweets and salty foods to pick on. The Columbian empanadas are very filling and well made. The arepas although not my favorite were enjoyed by the folks I was with. The pan de Bono's were fresh and perfectly cheesy!Even the regular coffee was great!"

"Good and plentiful , the Salmon was not skimpy, more than I expected. Cooked perfectly, plenty of options."

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

★★★★☆ 3.6 (204) • $$

"Keke's Breakfast Cafe is part of a growing trend in the last decade or so of a place to grab breakfast in an elevated surrounding than your usual greasy spoon diner.Once upon a time, it seemed that greasy spoon diners or luncheonettes were pretty much the only option if you wanted to go grab breakfast. Now with places like Keke's Breakfast Cafe and First Watch, you have better options if you are seeking to eat out for the first meal of the day (and what I was told since grade school was the most important meal of the day).Keke's Breakfast Cafe is a hometown creation, having started here in Orlando, Florida back in 2006 by brothers Keith and Kevin Mahen. Back then it had the more straightforward name of the Florida Waffle Shop. This location was on Conroy Road and when the brothers started eying the horizon of expansion, they went with the name Keke's (which was a combination of both of their names) both because the name was perceived as more catchy and also because they could not obtain a trademark for the business name Florida Waffle Shop. From that humble beginning of one location, Keke's has grown to over forty locations here in Florida. The reason they have not expanded beyond the Sunshine State yet is that they have not saturated the market yet.The menu at Keke's Breakfast Cafe is filled with the usual breakfast favorites like waffles, omelets, eggs benedict and more. They also have a lunch menu, but I have only tried their breakfast offerings.All in all, my breakfast here was an overall winner. The food was very good, the ambiance was a great alternative to the standard greasy spoon breakfast joint with cheap chairs and chipped tables and my server was friendly, attentive and professional. Overall, I will give this place five stars."

Boston Coffee House

★★★★☆ 4.2 (135) • $$

"Ordered a Peppermint White Chocolate and Gingerbread Latte. The cashier was friendly and fast making the drinks. We asked for an alternate milk and when she went to make then she said they only had a small amount and adjusted our drinks. They also serve food which I'll have to try next time I stop in. So pretty decorated with holiday decor. I would recommend this little coffee shop and will definitely be back to try more items."

Keke's Breakfast Cafe

"Keke's is a must for breakfast lovers! Omelets are huge and they don't skimp on fillings. Staff is very friendly and attentive. I ate there 2 out of 5 days. My bf, a morning person, went all 5 days - even loved the chicken and waffles which he had never had."

"I've had their banh mi sandwiches for years and years and it's always good. Be sure to bring cash (no cards the last time I went) and if you order 5 sandwiches you get a 6th for free. Most banh mi sandwiches have some sort of deal like this so keep an eye out for it. The bread they use for their banh mi is perfection. Our go to order is the combination sandwich or #1 bánh mì thịt nguội with the sour items on the side so it doesn't saturate the bread before we can get it home to eat it. They reheat in the oven pretty well, just add the veggies afterwards. Definitely recommend! I usually go out of my way to get these Vietnamese sandwiches! I'm craving one of their banh mi's now just thinking about it."

"Alexa Play In my Feelings by Drake.While in Orlando we stopped by a few breakfast spots! Keke's Breakfast Cafe was one!Who is Keke? Whoever you are, way to go!!!!! Maybe this is who Drake was talking about! Cause yes, Keke I need YOU!This whole concept is YUM! Basic breakfast food but delicious. Service was good not great, but the place was slammed packed. Our waiter was fantastic just missed a few requests. Let's get into it! Coffee: Yum great flavor! Brewed perfect! Entrees:Combo with French Toast, Eggs and Bacon. Ample bacon, made crispy! Eggs were seasoned perfectly. Waffle, Eggs, and Sausage, made to perfection. Given this is a breakfast spot, they have mastered the a.m. meal! No wonder they stay packed! Glad we came! If we venture back, we are running this back! Highly recommend even with the spotty service."
