Best Breakfast & Brunch in Orlando
Orlando has breakfast options that range from a character meal with Mickey Mouse to a flaky biscuit at a converted gas station in a neighborhood you’d never find without a local guide. Here’s where to eat in the morning.
Local Favorites
Se7en Bites (Mills 50) — Southern bakery and breakfast in a converted service station. The biscuits, chicken pot pie (yes, for breakfast), and Mason-jar desserts have earned a massive following. The weekend line is long. Go early or on a weekday.
The Briarpatch (Winter Park) — Park Avenue brunch institution. Eggs Benedict, Belgian waffles, and mimosas on the patio. Old-school charm in a Main Street setting.
Keke’s Breakfast Café (multiple locations) — The Orlando chain that does breakfast right. Huge menu, fast service, and consistent quality. The stuffed French toast and pancake flights are popular. No reservations — first come, first served.
Hash House A Go Go (I-Drive area) — Portions that are genuinely absurd. Sage fried chicken and waffles the size of a hubcap. Come very hungry.
Theme Park Breakfast Experiences
‘Ohana Character Breakfast (Polynesian Village Resort) — Lilo and Stitch, Mickey and friends. All-you-can-eat family-style. The bread pudding with bananas Foster sauce is famous. Disney dining reservation required.
Topolino’s Terrace Character Breakfast (Riviera Resort) — Characters in artisan costumes. The food is a step above typical character dining. Views of the Riviera.
The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium (Universal CityWalk) — Steampunk-themed restaurant with brunch. Milkshakes that border on architectural. No park ticket required.
Coffee & Quick Bites
Lineage Coffee (Mills 50) — Orlando’s best coffee roaster. The cortado and the seasonal single-origin offerings are worth seeking out.
Foxtail Coffee Co. (multiple locations) — Local chain with a devoted following. The Winter Park and downtown locations have great atmospheres.
Dochi (multiple locations) — Mochi donuts and boba tea. The chewy, ring-shaped donuts with creative glazes have taken Orlando by storm.
