42 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Bay Lake

“Every time we come to Disney we like to try new breakfast spot. We’ve seen some on TikTok or IG and tried them but they were overhyped to say the least. This place was a random find for us and we’re so glad we found it! It’s definitely UNDERhyped! The food was great quality, fresh and had flavor. Plus your portions were very generous and the prices weren’t bad at all. A lot of places in the area charge a premium it seems solely based on location and not quality. This place has it all! Service was also great. Everyone was friendly and we will definitely be making this our regular spot!“

“This place was delicious!! We had bout 20 min wait, as for some other folks as well. But it was well worth it!! Our waiter was awesome! He was promising on service,communicating, and making sure we all was good.I really wish I could remember his name, but he is definitely a waiter you would want!! And takes pride in his work.“

“Friendly service and buzzing breakfast spot in the Millenia area. Venton was warm and attentive with good suggestions and recommendations. Greek omelet and home fries are good - the turkey bacon wasn't very flavorful for some reason. The other waffles look amazing!“

“I throughly enjoyed enjoyed the brunch“

“On vacation from the UK, went to First Watch in Fort Lauderdale 5 years ago and loved the Breakfast so when I returned to the USA after 5 years just had to look them up in Orlando, in smell as I walked in was amazing! Nothings changed, great Breakfast and Great Service, I’ll be back this week!“

“Watch was honestly a fantastic breakfast experience from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. The restaurant is conveniently located near a major road, making it very easy to find, and one thing we immediately appreciated was the large amount of parking available. Even during a busy morning rush, parking was not an issue at all, which already started the visit off on a positive note.

As soon as we walked inside, we were greeted warmly by the staff. The atmosphere immediately felt welcoming, bright, and energetic without feeling chaotic. The restaurant was definitely busy, which is usually a good sign for a breakfast spot, but despite the crowd, the wait time was surprisingly short. We only waited around five minutes for a table, which was impressive considering how many people were dining there at the time.

Once we were seated in our booth, we had a chance to look over the menu, which had a great variety of breakfast and brunch options. Our server quickly acknowledged us and let us know he would be right back to take our order. True to his word, within about a minute he returned, ready to help us. Throughout the meal, the service remained excellent. Our server was friendly, attentive, professional, and made sure we had everything we needed without constantly interrupting the meal.

For drinks, I ordered the hot chocolate. While it tasted good and was warm and comforting, you could tell it had more of a store-bought hot chocolate flavor rather than a rich homemade one. It definitely was not bad by any means, but compared to how amazing the food was, the hot chocolate was probably the least impressive part of the meal. Still enjoyable overall though.

One thing we noticed was that our food actually came out before the appetizer, which was a little unusual. However, the food arrived quickly, hot, and fresh, so it honestly did not bother us too much in the end. Once we started eating, we completely forgot about that small issue because everything tasted so good.

The strawberry tres leches French toast was absolutely incredible. The flavor was balanced perfectly and the strawberry topping was not overpowering at all. Sometimes strawberry dishes can become overly sweet or artificial tasting, but this dish was soft, flavorful, rich, and perfectly done. Every bite tasted fresh and satisfying without feeling too heavy.

I also ordered two eggs with cheese, which were decent and cooked well, though fairly simple compared to the other dishes we tried. But the true star of the entire meal — the absolute grand slam — was the biscuits and gravy. They were unbelievably good. The biscuits were soft, fluffy, and fresh, while the gravy was rich, flavorful, creamy, and packed with comforting homemade flavor. Honestly, it was one of those dishes where you immediately know you would order it again on your next visit. Easily one of the best parts of the entire breakfast.

The restaurant itself was also very clean and well maintained. Even with how busy it was, the dining room stayed organized and comfortable. The atmosphere felt very family friendly and welcoming, while also being great for couples, friends, or anyone simply wanting a nice breakfast or brunch outing.

For two people, our total came to around $70, which honestly felt fair considering the amount of food, the quality, and the level of service we received. Between the welcoming staff, quick seating time, excellent server, delicious food, and clean atmosphere, the experience felt well worth the price.

Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would absolutely return again in the future. If you are looking for a great breakfast or brunch spot with welcoming service and delicious comfort food, we highly recommend giving this place a try. We happily give First Watch a full 5 out of 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“This Waffle House was way better than I expected. I ordered the waffle and bacon, and everything came out great. The bacon was cooked perfectly — I asked for it well done but not burnt, and they made it exactly right. The waffle was amazing, fresh, and tasted really good. The servers were also very nice and attentive, and the restaurant was extremely clean. It did not feel ghetto or dirty at all. Overall, great food, great service, and a very clean location. Definitely a 5-star Waffle House experience.“

“Fast service and the food was great.“

“I came to Orlando to celebrate my birthday and without a doubt first Watch was an excellent option for breakfast, we went two days and both days Mariana attended us and made the experience unique. Thank you Mariana, the customer service industry needs more people like you“

“This was a great little spot to eat at for a brunch, not too loud. Its not too far from Citywalk or Epic in a shopping plaza. The food was great from classic options to healthy food choices serving breakfast & lunch only. The kids enjoyed the pancakes, hubby enjoyed a breakfast bagel sandwich while I enjoyed an avocado tomatoe toast with eggs & bacon. We will visit in the future.“

“Got my food extremely fast“

“Great food and d very quaint! 🥰“

“SO good!!! The food, service, atmosphere…all perfect!!! This will be our new breakfast spot when we’re in town!! The Maple Vanilla Latte is 😘“

“Richard was our server and he was so funny, easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and you can tell he has a great personality and loves his job! He made us laugh, joked around the whole time, and really made us feel at home! Best server we’ve had in a long time!“

“The waffle are awesome good food“

“It's a waffle House. We got there before 8:00 a.m. on the weekend and it was not crowded but as soon as 8:00 a.m. hit it started to get crowded. The place was very clean and efficient when we arrived and when we left. People were friendly. It was a good meal. If anything, the waffles were a bit soggy so make sure to ask them to cook them well if that's important to you. They take credit cards.
For us it was a five-star waffle House experience.“

“everyone works as a team“

“I highly recommend this place for breakfast. It is 2499 for an adult and two kids eat free under the age of 11. The café has a variety of foods ranging from bagels that you can toast with. It’s appropriate cream, cheese, jelly, etc.. It also has a wide variety of selections of meats ranging from burritos to sausages, eggs, patties. They have a white selection of pastries to choose from. And lots of cereal. Options with milk selections as well. They have a small section of fruit and waffles crêpes. The area is very clean. The front host is super friendly, and all the staff making the food and cleaning up are very helpful and friendly as well. I highly recommend you come here for breakfast. It is located in the back of the hotel in the marketplace. It is a little bit of a walk, but it’s definitely a good place to come and eat at .“

“Fantastic food, my picky daughter even asked for seconds! The service was great and met the owner Mike, so kind and gave a little history of his restaurant. Will recommend to everyone that’s visiting or living in Orlando! Thank you for the great experience!“

“Heritor was our server today, she was super attentive and sweet! She offered us suggestions and told us about promotions! The drinks came out as soon as she went back and the food came out in maybe 5-10 mins. The atmosphere was only 4 stars because it’s really warm in there. There’s a lot of people so maybe that’s why but service and food was great!“

“Food was beautiful,very short staffed though,waited more than 15 minutes to be seated and no acknowledgement in that time either. The lady who served us was trying her best, she offered great service but do her a favour and put more staff on.“

“Dont review often but wow. So good. Had the steak tacos. Steak was like a soft jerky. Reminds me of pemmican premium soft jerky, not chewy, if you know you know. Mimosa was great had the Sunrise edition with fresh squeeze OJ and Cranberry. Biscuits and jelly 🔥 . Waffles were great. All around absolutely worth it. Will be back!“

“I loved everything. The service, the food, Amy will be cocked, very friendly!!!

The only thing that would be good to improve in the privacy in the kitchen 🤗. Since apparently they were having a bad discussion and everything was heard 🫠“

“We had a wonder server, Ms. Dell. It made our meal so enjoyable!“

“Davina was an excellent waitress at the IHOP in Kissimmee, located in front of the Comfort Inn hotel. She went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied. When visiting from Virginia, we asked about the local sites and places. Davina answered with a smile . This IHOP is one of the most friendly ones I have ever visited. I would give it 5+ stars had they been available. If you stop there on a Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday evening, Davina would be happy to serve you.

“I had such a wonderful experience at Egg-Celente! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. You can really tell they take pride in the quality of their ingredients and presentation. Every bite was satisfying, and everything came out hot and just right.

What truly made the visit exceptional was the service. Stephano was our server, and he was fantastic — attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. He made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed, and his positive attitude really added to the overall experience.

Great food, great service, and an outstanding server — I’ll definitely be coming back to Egg-Celente!“

The waitress name was Sharon. She was extremely sweet and helpful. If you go there ask for her. The place was very clean and quiet. I recommend this place.“

“CC is an OUTSTANDING server - friendly, courteous, right on top of our needs with EXCELLENT SERVICE!! She's too be commended for her service and work performance. She's a credit to this establishment, as well as to the entire organization. I hope her supervisor and even the regional manager realize just what a gem and exceptional performer they have in CC. Kudos to her and the Orlando IHOP. Phoenix should be so lucky!“
