Best Breakfast and Brunch Places in Orlando

"Specialising in nostalgic Southern comfort food with a twist, Se7en Bites Bake Shop serves up a small menu of delicious breakfast treats, all freshly made on site everyday. Buttermilk biscuits, baked ham and eggs, bread pudding and grits all make for heart-warming a way to start the day, all of which can be enjoyed in comfy cost surroundings in the heart of Florida’s Milk District. There are also plenty of sweet treats on offer for those looking for something a little more sugary."

"Beloved by locals and visited by Guy Fieri for Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, this eatery in Orlando’s Milk District, just east of downtown, creates modern twists on Southern comfort foods, using fresh, local ingredients whenever possible. Everything on the regular menu can be had for less than $10, including breakfast, lunch, dessert and brunch favorites like Biscuits & Gravy, Chicken Pot Pie and more."

"Primrose Drive, the breakfast and brunch and New American spot, which offers coffee and tea and more, is the most popular breakfast and brunch restaurant in Orlando, boasting 4.5 stars out of 1,629 reviews on Yelp."

"Make the 30-minute drive to Lake Nona from Orlando and you’ll land at Canvas Restaurant & Market, a bustling New American restaurant well-poised to become a brunch favorite. The peaceful waterfront setting, outdoor herb garden, and indoor market draw you in while the globally-inspired menu and creative cocktails invite you to stay. The brunch menu is comprised of savory, sweet and spicy, and balanced dishes brought to life by Executive Chef Bryan Thoman."

"For an exceptional al fresco brunch experience, you won’t do much better than a meal at Canvas. This hip spot has a waterfront location that is pretty at all times of day, but especially during a sunny brunch. You can either sit out on the patio, or inside the restaurant, with floor-to-ceiling windows that let in the beautiful views."

"One of the best views in Lake Nona with a picturesque view of the incredible lake while you sip on brunch cocktails. This farm to table restaurant is perfect for brunch in Orlando, and one of the main food spots in Lake Nona. Brunch Days & Hours: Saturday and Sunday 11AM-3PM"

"With a prime location on I-Drive, this quirky restaurant (if you couldn’t tell by the name) serves up some of the best chicken and waffles, pancakes, and scrambled eggs in the business. Their motto is “Twisted Farm Food,” and everything here has Midwest roots as the original location began far away from Orlando on the other side of the country. Have classic flavors like buttermilk pancakes drizzled in maple syrup, or get adventurous with Snicker’s pancakes, cinnamon churro waffles, and so much more."

"For a taste of the midwest wrapped up and delivered right to one of the best breakfast restaurants in Orlando, don’t miss out on Hash House a Go Go on International Drive. Hash House a Go Go prides itself on its “Twisted Farm Food.” Most of the portions are so large, the kitchen sticks a steak knife right through the center!. The pancakes are steering-wheel-of-a-tractor big."

"This is a small chain that has been running for two decades, serving up Midwest-inspired food. A large part of their secret is sourcing the very best ingredients from farms; with produce this good the breakfasts taste outstanding. The portions are big, so there is no chance of leaving here hungry."

"Tempting photos of decadent cakes and handcrafted doughnuts may lure you through The Glass Knife’s doors, but the restaurant’s more savory side is equally delicious, especially during brunch. Served on Saturdays and Sundays from 8am-4pm, brunch proves that the restaurant packs more than just a sugar-filled punch. I wouldn’t frown upon visiting for a meal comprised entirely of indulgent cakes, small-batch buttermilk brioche doughnuts, pastries and other assorted baked goods."

"Serving breakfast and lunch in addition to desserts, The Glass Knife in Winter Park is headed by Executive Chef Stuart Whitfield. Hardcore Disney fans might recognize that name as belonging to the maestro who previously sweetened up menus at Victoria and Albert’s, Be Our Guest Restaurant and other Walt Disney World Resort favorites.

"Your go-to destination for cakes, desserts, donuts, fun sweet treats and specialty coffee in Orlando. The Glass Knife has an eclectic menu of doughy goodness. We highly recommend their peanut butter and jelly donut."

"The Sanctum Cafe is part of Orlando’s Colonialtown neighborhood, just east of the Mills 50 dining and entertainment district near downtown. They serve breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner, with nearly everything on the menu being fully organic. Learn more: Mills 50"

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. When discussions about health food comes up, the usual descriptions that resonate are tasteless and bland. But at The Sanctum cafe, the owners aim to dispel such things."

"Ferncreek Ave., Suite D. With 4.5 stars out of 425 reviews on Yelp, the vegetarian and breakfast and brunch spot, offering coffee and tea and more, has proven to be a local favorite."

"This cute cafe located in Edgewater Drive is a great spot for enjoying weekend brunch. They have couches and antique tables, making you feel like you are in someone’s cozy home. They opened last year and offer a great brunch menu and local beers."

"First Watch promises to offer the freshest taste in town, and boy do they deliver. If you like your avocado toast thick and fresh, your muffins baked that day or your French toast batter made from scratch, First Watch is the place for you. With the menu offering everything from steel cut oatmeal and elevated egg sandwiches through to homemade chocolate chip pancakes, every order at First Watch is made fresh on the premises every day."

"Summer doesn’t officially begin until next week, but it’s already summer-hot, so we may as well say it’s here. Which is just fine because First Watch’s summer menu specials are also available now. And as I do every three months, I headed to First Watch to have a sample, humming a little Vivaldi along the way."

"Tried to go here and waited to be seated and got to the table people came after were taken care of us before us than they were out of chicken so I left."
