Houndstooth Kitchen & Eatery

Houndstooth kitchen is a charming small business located in pleasant Maitland with a lovely outdoor eating area! It's surrounded by heavy activity so be sure not to blink and miss this tiny shop. It's the definition of a small business, run solely by the sweetest couple. After ordering at the counter, you can take a seat and wait for your food to be delivered to your table. After deliberation, I decided to order a Rueben panini with a side of macaroni salad. Let me tell you just how far this sandwich exceeded my expectations! Excellent corned beef that was very lean and noticeably high quality. The macaroni salad was lovely as well. It was a Dijon dressing which I appreciate instead of a heavy mayo spread. Houndstooth is definitely a cafe meets deli vibe and I'm here for it! You should be too!

I still enjoy coming here and sitting outside, especially during an event. The food is good, sometimes the service is super friendly other times it is not but you can tell they take pride in their food. I won't ever get enough of the Jalapeño Pimento Cheese...that's why you don't see it in the picture :) Go check them out if you haven't already.

This is a new discovery of mine & I am so happy about it. Being that this is right around the corner from my job, I came here for a lunch break & I couldn't be more pleased! This is a small cafe right in downtown Maitland. There's plenty of outside seating, but not much inside due to the size of the cafe itself. I personally love how small it is because it really does feel like a hidden neighborhood gem. I ordered the Chicken Avocado sandwich with no sides & it was delicious. The pairing of the ingredients were SO well crafted & yummy. I cant wait to return to try the other offerings...although this may be the kind of place that I don't want to stop getting the same thing since it was so dang good the first round! If/when I decide to branch out - it'll be for that Lemon Thyme sammy.All in all - heaven sent & I will be returning! :-)

Everything I've tried here has been delicious, all sandwiches, soups, and sides. Especially the turkey chili, that's the best chili in Orlando.

Wonderful place with unique deli food. The service is always friendly and quick. The patio tables have a nice view of the surrounding park and it makes for a nice getaway from all the traffic and noise.

All the sauces, mayos "white bbq sauce" are all made in house. The bread they buy wow! ohMy stars that spelt bread is soft, grainy and so delicious. I don't care for split pea soup but I heard it was really good so I had to try it and it was the perfect amount of curry and seasonings but not over powering, creamy smooth. It was coldOutside and it hit the spot. I would order the pea soup again and again. It complimented the avocado egg salad sandwich perfectly. Loved the combinations of mashed avocado and chucks of egg mixed with a hint of seasonings and the micro greens tastedLike they just cut them and plated them so fresh and flavorful a extra bonus in my book. Combo done well. Let's talk again about the hot dogs buns. They are Cuban rolls that's right I said Cuban rolls so fresh and squeezee. they pull a little of the bread out the middle place the hot dog inside and fill and pack the rest with delicious goodness of your liking. All American had relishes, ketchup, mustard and the other hot dog had meat and bean chili with pimento cheese. They hit it out the ball park. Get there whatever way you can. Car, bike, train but just get there. You will be going back again and again. They also have for sale containers of their homemade soups, pimento cheese and other items grab and take home to enjoy. The owner was our cashier and server. Very nice, and personable and loves doggies. The place is small inside with a eclectic vibe but knows how to maximize there space with high top tables and a shelf for your purse. It has roll up doors along with a ton of outdoor sitting with large umbrella's. there is a large fountain and a green space across the street to take your food to and have a picnic. Great options. So fresh and all homemade it does not get better than that.

I really enjoy this place. I've gone a couple of times and have not been disappointed. This last time I went I got the lemon thyme turkey pressed sandwich and I was blown away! It's nice and small inside with about three high top tables but there is plenty of seating outside. The service is friendly and attentive!

Came here to say for lunch and was fantastic. Had the turkey chili and turkey avacado panini with the wife. We both really enjoyed it. Sat outside and listened to live music on a Sunday afternoon. Wewill add this place to our rotation. Excellent!

Gotta say as well on those "cold" days in Florida, game days, they have the best hot dog in town! After I moved from Maitland I spent a minute in New York and now Bentonville and the hotdog by Houndstooth was the best. If your thing is eating stuff that's not out of a box then that's your place. Also the owners Dave and Monica are always there so you're eating at a true mom and pop restaurant! They also have great bbq, salads, veggie burger and the famous white bbq chicken salad!

I love this place. The soup is incredible. I've been two times both times I had to get the turkey and thyme sandwich because it is to die for. The first time I went I also tried the Reuben and the Cuban. The Cuban was nothing to write home about but the Reuben was pretty good. I probably wouldn't order either of those sandwiches again though. This last time I tried the pulled pork sandwich, which was delicious. I would like to try some other sandwiches before I would order that one again. It was falling apart so it's a bit messy. The turkey sandwich is still on top and I definitely would recommend giving it a try. There's nice outdoor seating but beware of the bees. All the people I have come in contact with are so sweet.
