13 Best Cafes in Lake Buena Vista

“While noticing a signficant decline in the food quality at Disney during this last visit, the 50’s Prime Time Cafe was the exception. Our whole group was extremely pleased with the food and the service. We will definitely return here on our next visit.“

“We had breakfast served by Tyrone, and everything was great. A couple of us had the Olivia's Breakfast and a few had the Banana Bread French Toast. Tyrone has a great personality and was entertaining whole providing good service. We look forward to visiting again on our next vacation!“

“Very Victorian and elaborate decorations. Good food.“

“We enjoyed the seasonal beverage, which was a lion king themed latte. It was very good and had a considerable amount of coconut in it, which was more than fine with me. It is very nice to find a coffee stop in the parks, this one is very efficient and has a good selection of different coffees.“

“Best theme park food I’ve ever eaten. I made my friends get the Mac n cheese and pulled pork and might I say that it is magnificent! You take a bite and it takes you to heaven. It is one of my stops every time I pass by. My whole family loves eating there when we go to animal kingdom so you should try it!! Here’s my before and after photo lol the best!“

“Located inside of the Four Seasons Orlando at Disney. Staff was super nice. There were lots of treat options, including macarons and gelato. A few quick snack to go options also available in the cooler. Alternative milk options for made to order drinks, including oat, soy and almond. I paid almost $8 for a small iced coffee. I didn't think that the price for the value and taste was worth it. You are at the Four Seasons though, so it's to be expected. They had quite a bit of seating/workspaces, indoor and outdoor.“

“Enjoyed my Mickey waffles for daily breakfast during my stay.“

“A “small” french-inspired cafe at Disney’s Riviera resort- but my favorite part is the small library/lounge area connected to the cafe that’s a wonderful and lowkey place to sit and hang out.

I got a lavender iced tea lemonade and it was so refreshing on a sunny day. We tried a pear entremet and it wasn’t too bad either.

Plenty of coffee options here and actually not as spendy as I’d expect on Disney property.“

“Good snack place to take a break.“

“A decent sized coffee bar within the Swan hotel, this is the only place (I believe...) in the Crescent Lake region that has matcha. It does not taste like ceremonial grade, but when it's the only option I have, I'll gladly take it. Of course they have coffee as well, along with lots of fresh as well as grab and go food and snacks too. You're going to pay a bit for things since this is inside of a major resort hotel, but if you're visiting the area you're likely already prepared for that.

When we visited the staff was super friendly and willing to customize drinks. The store was clean and pleasant. There's no seating within the cafe itself, but plenty right outside of it. On a hot Florida day this was the perfect spot to duck inside of for iced drinks and some free AC. They're open early and pretty late, so either way you're good to go. (The coffee shop nearby inside of The Boardwalk, meanwhile, closes at 3:30).“

“Came to the Contempory for a dinner reservation on 11/30/25 near 7p and needed a mommy pick me up to finish the night. Jack at Contemporary Grounds did not disappoint! He served me with kindness, talent and made the yummiest (& cutest) latte with Minnie Mouse art on top. He helped me pick a drink I'd like by expertly answering all my questions on each product. Thank you, Jack!! 300% recommend. Too bad I'm not a local or I'd be a regular!“

“A sweet way to start your Magic Kingdom day!

Saw these new doughnuts on social media and from all the positive reviews it sounded like something that I had to try.

I was here early in the morning so thankfully there was not a lineup and I managed to recieve my item in about 5 minutes.

This is obviously a sweet treat so if you are looking for just that, this is the item for you. With that in mind, these doughnuts we so delicious! They were crispy on the outside and nice and tender and fluffy in the middle. There was a slight apple flavour from the dough and it paired so well with the caramel sauce. I actually loved the coating sugar - it wasn't just regular sugar. It was almost flaky and dissolved as they touched your lips. Very cool texturally.

This is a such a great treat to grab in Magic Kingdom. It pairs so very well with your morning coffee - a true way to start your day! I will definitely be keeping this item on my list to grab the next time I visit Magic Kingdom.“

“Fast food! Hamburger was surprisingly good. Hot fresh and the staff behind the counter were friendly. Floor staff (condiments) was to interested in their phones. Great a/c on a very hot day. Stop early or late the 12-1 time crowd is very busy.“
