Keke's Breakfast Cafe

This was my first time at this location. Staff were friendly and attentive. Special mention - Malikhi. He made sure the coffee was never ending and checked in multiple times to ensure we were good. The food was delicious as usual.

One of our favorite brunch spots in the area. My favorite is the blueberry stuffed French toast, a side of home fries and an orange or cranberry juice to drink. But this family-owned chain with locations all throughout Orlando serves the best brunch with the freshest ingredients and a most courteous and friendly staff. The only downside is that they are so busy during the holidays and weekends, you may have to wait 30+ minutes for a table. But the turn-over here is pretty quick and well-worth the wait!

Too fire!! Too fresh!! I got the built your own with a specialty fruit French toast, potatoes & bacon. & it was delicious!! They are very generous with their portions! The bacon was made perfectly, not too raw not too crispy. The strawberries and blueberries were so juicy and fresh! No wait on a Saturday morning, we got seated right away!Top tier!

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.

We were recommended to try Keke's since we desperately wanted some good ol' American pancakes but the calories seemed SO high we went with waffles instead (likely the pancakes are BIG). The waffles were not great, but good. I took the Florida Waffle (lots of fresh fruit) while Mrs G took plain with a side of bacon. Service was friendly but not great (server forgot to bring the syrup). Would have been better if they were to serve maple syrup.Review #57 2023

Came after work for breakfast with my co workers. We were seated immediately since we were the first dinners. Keke's offers the basic breakfast menu that we all know. I got the silver dollar pancakes and a side of bacon. Unfortunately I did find a hair or string in my butter. Of course I told the waitress and they had inspected it and told me it was a string from their apron and not a hair.... that's weird.... They did make me a new set of silver dollar pancakes and I opt not to use the butter. Didn't get anything off my bill. The bacon was good as it should be. Service was good, waitress was attentive.

The best buttermilk pancakes in Orlando! The pancakes are made to perfection, fluffy and so big!

Came here about 1030. I should have known to turn around when I didn't smell a thing. Greeted immediately and place was pretty empty with exception of about three or four other patrons. Server was super sweet. Took my order and food came out in five minutes. Food was cold. It tastes old. Manager came and apologized and offered to remake, I declined. I asked her to charge me something so I could tip with my card. Left server a tip, not her fault the kitchen operates as such. Went up the block to Metro dinner and it was delicious, hot and prompt.

I love this place definitely one of my favorites for breakfast! Our server was so helpful and friendly, making our experience even better!

The food was really good however the waiter was not your normal type of server. I would like to say it's probably my fault for not checking but when a server serve you, normally they make suggestions as to what's available in combos or platters. When my buddy and I ordered, the waiter ordered everything ala cart. So in other words he ordered everything as a side. Our bill came out to be over $60 for two at breakfast. I think it is my fault for not checking how he ordered but also I know the deal when someone is working for tips. I went back at a later date with my wife and sure enough the next waiter showed what combos or platters are available and our bill was a LOT LESS. This was for the same amount of food. Just my .02 take from it what you want
