“I finally got to try Juan Valdez coffee for the first time… After always sticking to my usual American brands, I decided to switch things up, and I’m so glad I did.
👉🏻 I sampled a few things: the cortadito was absolutely delicious, the cold brew wasn’t as bold as I personally like it, but still refreshing. The Colombian pan de abono was incredibly divine, and the chicken empanaditas were also a win.

Service was outstanding Kevin was super attentive and made everything exactly the way I asked. Would I come back? Absolutely. ☕✨“

“I want to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding staff at this Panera Bread location. While the food is always great, it's the incredible customer service that truly keeps me coming back.

The team here consistently goes above and beyond, and their friendly and cheerful demeanor never fails to brighten my day. I'd like to specifically recognize John, Mat, and Roberta, who are shining examples of this. They don't just serve customers; they genuinely get to know us. I always appreciate our friendly chats, which make me feel like a valued customer, not just a transaction.

It's clear that they take great pride in their work and the cafe itself. I constantly see them tidying up and making sure the space is clean and welcoming. Their hard work and positive attitude create such a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Thank you to the entire team, and especially to John, Mat, and Roberta, for their dedication and for making every single one of my visits a better experience. They are truly the heart of this cafe.“

For breakfast, lunch or a snack break you cannot go wrong. Steak breakfast burrito 🌯 is amazing and the daily specials are a deal and a half!

Not to mention very affordable prices for the area. Cannot recommend highly enough!“

“This is a smaller place at Disneys Old Key West Resort. The food is good and the service has always been really good. Nice people that always start up a good conversations.

It’s not a very large place but it has a great beachy feel to the place, as all of that resort does.

We thought we had reservations but a mistake only part, it didn’t go through. They still found us a table in just a few minutes time. We were very happy about that.

If you happen to just want to get away from the parks and have breakfast or lunch in a quiet atmosphere, check them out.“

“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.“

“I was browsing for a new breakfast spot in my eyes spotted this local café wasn’t too far from me. I the menu is very simple. It’s in a very nice area. The person I was working there she was very nice. I tried the Jamaican wrap very good. Very nice spices. I also had a number one drink banana watermelon pineapple very good. I’m gonna come back to the spot and try some more to find my favorite but so far so good from my first experience“

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

“Le Petit Cafe is a true gem at the Riviera Resort, especially if you appreciate quality coffee similar to what you'd find at Starbucks. This spot is just straight-up awesome! The staff provides excellent service, and the baristas are skilled at their craft; my caramel macchiato was an absolute delight and the perfect way to kick off my day. There is even a nice room full of books and Disney memorabilia right next to the cafe to unwind with your drink. What's more, the prices won't break the bank. I wholeheartedly recommend stopping by this fantastic cafe.“

“Lou was so amazing for breakfast for our family! Thank you Lou!“

“My 17 year old wanted her cake here! Their cakes are delicious but they branded hers with a white chocolate wafer with Fortuna Bakery on her birthday cake and I found that the only downfall. We don’t want an advertisement on her cake. Next time leave that off. We got the Fantasia cake. She had a great day! Thank you!“

“I went to the service center to get repairs done to my vehicle and was told that I could have breakfast @ Nissan while I’m waiting. I came to Nero’s and ordered an Energizing Egg Breakfast. It came with 2 eggs cooked your way, your choice of meat, toast and a hash brown. They have beverages as well. The Price was good and the food was hot, fresh and delicious. Service was good and the area is clean. Definitely will be my go to breakfast place when serving my vehicle.“

“Love this place, located in a great area, the food is always hot and delicious and the smoothies are great too! They do get busy during lunch but they get through the line quickly with ease! I’ve visited for breakfast and lunch multiple times ?“

“Outdoor stop has outstanding Mac and Cheese with pulled pork. Topped with coleslaw and crunchies. It's fast service. But the best part is the quiet bagodas just across from EightSpoon and hidden behind the green buildings. Lots of seating. Covered patios to stay out of rain. Quiet peaceful. Calm.
Good food and a secret hideaway where children can take a nap.“

“Excellent food and smoothies! Excellent customer service!“

“Simply great service“

“Customer service is amazing! We had late reservations and the kids were hungry. They let us check in and took us back as soon as they could. Food is delicious. We would eat here again! Best place yet out of all of the parks. We highly recommend!“

“Let me tell you firsthand — First Drop Café at The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes was good, really good. From the moment I walked in, I knew this would be a place worth savoring.

The café has a modern charm, and their locally roasted coffee hits the spot perfectly. I tried their farm quiche, and wow — it was flavorful, fresh, and filling without being too heavy. The staff was friendly, efficient, and clearly passionate about what they do, which made the experience even better.

Their menu is packed with options like handcrafted sandwiches, fresh wraps, baked goods, and even some sweet gelato treats if you're feeling indulgent. And let's not forget the Florida-fresh orange juice and smoothies — a perfect way to kickstart your day in sunny Orlando.

Whether you’re a guest or just popping by for a great coffee break, First Drop is a spot you won’t regret visiting. It’s definitely earned a place on my list of go-to cafés.“

“Food was amazing 🤩 the pancakes taste like grandma’s!!!“

“Good snack place to take a break.“

“This was my first time visiting First Watch and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food you get. The only downside to my experience was at the beginning — when I walked in, two employees walked past me without greeting or acknowledging me. Even a quick “Welcome, someone will be right with you” would have made a difference. One of them even made eye contact but kept walking. That said, once I was seated, my waitress was very sweet and attentive, which made the overall experience a positive one. I had the pesto chicken power bowl.“

“Sometimes I’m very concerned that I’m visiting a place that sells Starbucks coffee, but they’re baristas are not trained to make the same high-quality product. But my concerns were misplaced the trolley car Café far exceeded all of my needs and expectations.“

“Excellent food as always excellent service by Laura! Highly recommend this first watch everybody is always smiling and very friendly“

“The place just reopened. I've passed by several times and decided to stop by yesterday ... the owner was very welcoming as well as the lady behind the counter! I ordered 2 subs a turkey with bacon ? and a Philly cheese steak, both combo meals (soda+chips) totaling around less than $13 ! Which is impressive within itself, but both subs were excellent! Sorry, no pics. I ate them already, but if you would like a great sub without paying ridiculous prices, this is the place to go .... did I mention they also have Pizza ?

Parking: The restaurant sits in the same building as an apartment complex. Although the complex is residential, there are a few spots in front of the restaurant“

“ben at oasis canteen was on point.
