This Cafe offers atmosphere, comfort and excellent customer service.

It’s the type of place where you can study, have a first date, casually chat with friends or hang out on your own.

The cafe is also visually appealing with a plethora of artsy decor. It has seating options ranging from the typical table and chair set up as well as colorful, comfortable couches. It scores high on easy access to electrical outlets.

Luis, the barista, is very customer friendly, has great coffee recommendations, and gives customers the kind of attention of someone who enjoys his job.

Wow this place is a gem! I was visiting from the other side of Orlando near Winter Park and it was worth the drive. Ordered a specialty latte and grilled cheese with tomato soup which was absolutely delicious. The bowl it was served in was adorable. The atmosphere here is also lovely, perfect for relaxing, working, or reading. I stayed for about 2 hours doing some work on my computer and felt very welcomed. Wish I lived closer so I could visit more often but had a great experience here.

Ash is truly an artist. This beautiful coffee shop is one of a kind. As I write this I hear French music playing over the speakers.
Quaint and meaningful are two words that come to mind when describing Achilles.

Come for the coffee and delicious food, stay for the art and warm feelings this treasure brings.

My gosh!!!!! I am a coffee addict! But, this place is at the top of any other coffee shop I've been in my life.
It makes you feel that you are in the living room of your grandma's house. The environment, the energy, the service, the coffee, the music, the decoration. My gosh, it is from another world!!!
This owner is so kind and lovely. He designed the food menu, completely. Even, his “empanadas” are his own creation…
The place is perfectly decorated with so much “uniqueness“ 💕💕❤️💕💕❤️ definitely this is a gem 💍 in Orlando…

I’ve been coming here for years and I really love it! The drinks are always perfect and beautiful. The food is always made with love even though the chef has a really big head rightfully so because I’ve never dissatisfied with my meal!

Food and service are fantastic

That was super cool and looked relaxing. However, the vibe that was given from the barista was not good. Being it was my first time there I had some questions about the menu, but it seems as if they were bothered. Not really welcoming for newcomers. Just if you’ve been there before.

Updated: No mess up on this review I posted it to the correct place. I didn’t visit on Sunday because I know you’re closed. I don’t have to post a review same day. I post it a little later because I was still annoyed enough. But it looks like you always go after the bad reviews. So not surprised you thought I posted to the wrong place.

Waiting a very long time 1 person in front of me and only 1 person working. Didn't see any signage in regards to hot breakfast so I left. Very cute decor inside tho.

Update: When I arrived the coffee shop was not busy at all. I was the only person waiting in line. The person in front of me i was referring to was the ONE drink the the barista was taking 20 years to make. They knew I was standing there and zero knowledgment even after 15 minutes of waiting. So no opportunity to ask any questions. As a matter of fact two other people came in behind me and after several minutes of them waiting, started loudly complaining about the wait and lack of service and still nothing from the employee. That's not my style, I just walk out. Also I did look for anything that somehow even hinted to a breakfast menu and saw nothing except store bought pastries. Your super unprofessional and childish response to a potential customer walking out of your business because you failed to run it properly certainly tells me I made a smart move by leaving and hopefully lets others know that there are better options. Good luck with your business.

I wasn't sure I'd feel the same as before. But Ash still did it! Bigger but the feeling of a perfect cozy, fun, easy, relaxing, etc. with more spaces to accommodate your needs.

You will not find a better coffee & food spot. Achilles is the best around. Owner takes the time to hand select ingredients and makes everything on the menu fresh in-house.
