I have been eating there since 1983 and every meal has been perfect. I worked in Downtown Winter Park and ate there almost everyday. I have since retired and have not been to Power House in quite a few years. I walked in for breakfast during the holidays, and not only did George remember me but remembered my favorite smoothie. It’s just so much more than a place for good food & a smoothie….Vegetarian options: Best vegetarian food.

Awesome little place with an easy vibe. Service was quick and fresh tasting food. Feels very authentic and yet simple. Great place for a fresh and healthy salad. The Almond Good Karma smoothie was delicious. The falafel was fantastic - home made and tasty.The owner is friendly and funny. Felt very welcome here and glad we stopped in for a quick bite.

Easy, casual, and amazingly tasty. Positivity abounds from the staff. (Pls don't forget to tip ?) I enjoyed the Green Machine smoothie today (ginger, avocado, banana, pineapple, spinach, and protein powder). OMG! Everything on the menu is crazy good. They've been in business for 35 years, and any menu choice will be fresh, superb, and satisfyingParking: Drive down Lyman, and there are many parking spots

Such a loving owner with a staff that provides excellent service. It’s a cute little smoothie cafe with the warmest environment. Come here!!!!!!!!! (P.s. the girl who makes the smoothies is such a cutie)
Best food ever!! I highly recommend the “wake up mocha” and replace the banana with chocolate chips! The people are always so friendly too! Best grilled cheese too!!!

Nice spot for a quick lunch in winter park. Came in a as a group of 4 and ordered some pitas and a salad for lunch. Service was great and food was pretty good and priced well. Owner was trying really hard to sell baklava at checkout; it looked good but didn't appreciate the push. Would still come back for lunch here

Very clean place. Delicious food. Healthy. Portion size could be bigger. The service was impeccable. And the staff were super friendly.
I could go out to eat at a sit down restaurant for what they cost. It's basically a flour tortilla with lunch meat. They messed up my take out order and didn't really care to do anything about it. Not worth the money.

I feel really bad about giving this place a three star because the customer service is so phenomenal. And whoever's been reading my reviews over the years knows I am a stickler about Customer Service, and the menu here is very healthy, which is a good thing. However, for my personal taste, the food is very bland. And I mean VERY bland. But I understand there's a market for that, and many people in Central Florida seem to not like that much seasoning. So if this sounds like you, and you love healthy items on a very healthy menu, this is the place for you. So just ignore my stars. I personally have to rate according to seasoning level, so just take my star rating with a grain of salt and focus on the words.

I've made it a ritual to visit Power House Cafe every week, and while their POWER HOUSE salad--with its tender chicken, perfectly made falafels, and delightful tabbouleh garnish--is a major draw, it's truly the owner that adds an extra layer of warmth to the experience. With his thick accent, he narrates stories that transport you to faraway lands, while his colorful personality brightens up the cafe. He's kind-hearted, always wearing a contagious smile, and his sense of humor is unmatched. Every visit, he's there making jokes and ensuring everyone is having a good time. The combination of the food's consistent quality, the owner's genuine charm, and the welcoming atmosphere he's cultivated ensures that Power House Cafe isn't just a place to eat; it's a place to feel at home. Every meal feels like a personal invitation to his table, and that's something truly special. If you haven't been here yet, make a reservation; you're in for a treat both for your palate and your spirit.
