Pool staff review: What an amazing experience!! Here for the first time and the Lifeguards and staff made our time THE BEST!! Taylor and Justin were superb and that's what you really want out of a Disney resort.

Great place to grab coffee before heading to the parks or (as we did) before a morning stroll around the grounds of the Contemporary. The Mickey and Minnie latte art is a super fun addition that will add a bit of magic to your morning. They serve Joffrey's Coffee, like the rest of the resorts on Disney property and the coffee is consistently good. Located on the ground floor near the bus stops, it's easy to miss as everyone focuses on the Grand Canyon Concourse. The only downside is they close at one, so you can't grab an afternoon or evening coffee here. If you've got time, walk out of the backside of the ground floor and enjoy your coffee with a view of Bay Lake and Bay Lake Tower, a relaxing and beautiful way to start your day.

Great Value for a snack credit and the only Specialty Coffee in the Contemporary/Bay Lake Tower complex. Fun Latte art!

Don't miss out on this amazing little get away oasis!…read more From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect without being overbearing. The food? Incredible. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The portions were just right, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. The coffee was also top-notch--exactly what you want to start your day. Whether you're looking for a relaxing morning, a quick bite, or a place to meet up with friends, this café checks all the boxes. Definitely one of the best breakfast spots I've been to. I'll be coming back for sure!

As soon as we walked in we here greater at the counter to place our orders. I had a pumpkin iced coffee which was really good. My son ordered the kids crepe with Nutella and bananas. It was a decent size portion and he loved it. I had the eggs on tortilla. The two salsas were phenomenal and I believe it was the owner came over to check on us and offered extra sauce which I of course excepted. The portion was the perfect breakfast size. The food took some time to come out especially since they weren't very busy and what we ordered cooks pretty quick but it was worth it. I think we were just hangry and needed some good. We can't wait to go back and bring the rest of the family.

We also had the Floridian bagel and the key lime pie, they weren't anything special, definitely wouldn't return for the food. Overall the coffee was definitely good but not the best I've ever had. Though it was good enough alongside the experience for a 5 star review! The cat cafe being a part of it makes the trip 1000x worth it. Even if cats aren't your favorite (like me), it's still such a cool idea and nice to drink your coffee and watch the kittens play! A great place to bring kids and get coffee!

I'm allergic to cats however the cat cafe is enclosed next door separate from the coffee shop. I got one the specialty drinks called the Pebbled Garden. It's more a soda with espresso than an actual coffee. It's not my type of drink but it is different and unique. I think I will opt for a more normally coffee drink next time. It's quiet and has an overall calm atmosphere. Great for studying or reading or doing work. Overall, I can't wait to come back and try more items.

I found this place on Yelp looking for some French food since I was too full on this trip to go to the French pavilion in Epcot and I was craving French brunch. This place was great. I got the lunch combination with a choice of soup or salad (I opted for soup du jour, which was a tomato soup) and the Croque madame. I paired my meal with the seasonal selection of matcha, the blueberry Matcha. Service was pretty quick and the food and drink were amazing. Croque Madame was cheesy and delicious with a yummy runny egg. The matcha was sweet and had the blueberry flavor from the whipped cream. The tomato soup was savory, creamy, and with tomato flavor and came with two slices of baguettes, which were great to dip up the soup. If I'm ever back in Orlando I would 100% make a stop by here again.

You order at the counter, grab a table, and they'll bring the food out to you. We got the Croque Madame with the soup du jour (broccoli cheddar) and a potato bacon quiche. The Croque Madame was tasty/crispy and the soup was flavorful but the quiche was quite bland. I added salt, pepper, and ketchup to give it more flavor. Staff was friendly and our food came out pretty quickly. We enjoyed the ambiance and the decor did transport us to France. This is a local spot worth trying because they have unique options than your typical Denny's/Ihop type breakfast.

Stuff A Bagel is an absolute gem. I discovered it on my last trip up and instantly knew I had to…read morecome back. This place seriously might be one of the best bagel spots I've ever been to. My go-to is the jalapeño cheddar bagel warm, flavorful, and the perfect kick without being overwhelming. But honestly, everything I've tried here has been amazing. Last visit, I had their cheese danish and it was absolutely to die for... so I was really excited to get it again this time. We arrived around 10:30 and sadly they were already sold out (major heartbreak moment), but that just means it's that good. To make up for it, I grabbed a dozen bagels to go and their fresh scallion cream cheese, and WOW. No regrets. Everything is so fresh, soft, and full of flavor. If you're in Orlando, this spot is a must. I'm obsessed

My wife and I live 10 minutes away and I wouldn't have it any other way. The restaurant is across the street from Magic Kingdom cast member parking. So it's definitely convenient for cast members to come in and grab a bite. Stuff a Bagel is open for breakfast and lunch, hours being 5 am to 2 pm. Sunday it's 6 am to 1 pm. My wife and I had breakfast recently and she got her usual which is a pumpernickel bagel with cream cheese and bacon. It is her absolute favorite. If you want your bagel toasted, you do need to let them know, it is not automatic. I got the special that was offered which was a 3 egg omelette which was a western, also came with a bagel I chose plain. This omelette simply perfect... truly perfectly made. The bagel was delicious of course. No matter the flavor all true New York bagels. I want to talk about the breakfast menu itself. They offer a lot of variety. My wife and I have had a lot of items for breakfast. Here is what they have to choose from: -Bagels: Plain, Blueberry, Egg, Garlic, Onion, Salt, Sesame, Poppy. Whole Wheat, Everything, Egg Everything, Pumpernickel, Cinnamon Raisin, Asiago Cheese, Jalapeño Cheddar (My wife and I's absolute favorite bagels are the Everything, Pumpernickel, Jalapeño Cheddar and Asiago Cheese) -Bagels with toppings: Plain Cream Cheese, Butter and Cream Cheese, Flavored Cream Cheese, Flavored Cream Cheese and Butter, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Lox Spread, Fresh Lox and Cream Cheese, La Guardia Fresh Whitefish(My wife sticks with Plain, I like the plain too but I also get the Fresh Whitefish and Fresh Lox and Cream Cheese) -Stuff Breakfast Bagels: Long Island Expressway (L.I.E.): 2 Eggs, Steak and Cheese; Brooklyn Queens Expressway: 2 Eggs, Potatoes and Cheese; Jersey Turnpike: Taylor Ham, 2 Eggs and Cheese; Southern State: 2 Eggs, Turkey and Cheese; Frank the Tank: 2 Eggs, Ham, Bacon, Sausage and Cheese; Breakfast Burrito: 2 Eggs Scrambled, with Sausage, Peppers, Onions, and Cheese; 2 Eggs with Lox, 2 Eggs, 2 Eggs with Swiss, Cheddar, American, Provolone, or Pepper Jack Cheese; 2 Eggs with Cheese, Bacon, Ham or Sausage (I love Frank the Tank the best. My wife sticks to a bagel and cream cheese) -Cream Cheese: Plain, Low Fat Plain, Veggie, Scallion, Maple Walnut, Strawberry, Cinnamon Raisin, Jalapeño, Olive Lox Spread (we've had all but Olive Lox Spread and Strawberry) -Healthy Options: Veggie Omelette- 3 Eggs Scrambled Whites, Assorted Veggies, Swiss Cheese, Buttered Whole Wheat Bagel; Lean Burrito- 2 Egg Whites, Turkey, Peppers, Onions and Cheese ( I prefer the Veggie Omelette) -Bakery: Danish, Turnovers, Flavored Crumble Cake, Black and White Cookie, Assorted Muffins, Cinnamon Bun, Chocolate Croissant, Cannoli, Italian Cookies( Rainbow, Linzer Tarte, Pink and Green Leaf) We love a classic black and white Overall, this is a great place for a quick breakfast or even a lunch. We will be trying some lunch items next time we come here. The line is usually long, especially on the weekends, but the staff is so great, they are quick, and you never end up waiting long to order or to get your food. Their coffee is great, continuingly making fresh coffee. I highly reccomend stopping by. Aces!

Bakery 1908 has a clean, modern aesthetic and an impressive selection of Asian breads, pastries,…read moredrinks, and dim sum dishes. While the interior is more modern than the bakeries I grew up visiting in Flushing, New York, the food itself reminded me of home. I picked up a hot dog bun and a custard egg tart from the bakery, then ordered the Hong Kong sticky rice and lychee mango fruit tea with boba (50% sugar, 50% ice). These are some of my favorite comfort foods, and while the prices were a bit higher than what I'm used to back home, I was pleasantly surprised by every item I tried. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. The hot dog bun was soft, and the egg tart had a flaky crust with smooth custard. The sticky rice, wrapped in a lotus leaf, was warm, comforting, and had the subtle savory flavor I love. The fruit tea was refreshing, with real pieces of lychee and mango mixed in. There was plenty of seating for my friend and me to sit, relax, and enjoy our treats. If you're looking for authentic Asian bakery favorites in Orlando, Bakery 1908 is worth checking out. It's the perfect spot for brunch, whether you're craving something sweet or savory or just want a refreshing drink. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm missing the flavors of home.

This time we stayed on I-Drive and found that they have a new location closer by in Lake Buena Vista, which we love even more than the first one. It's newer and way more spacious with a higher ceiling. The mural, the seatings and the greenery all help to create a very cozy and relaxed environment. It's busier too and harder to find a parking spot though. Their breads are so delicious, with so many varieties we always have a hard time deciding what to get, since we want them all! The swiss roll right by the entrance are delicious too! They also have cookies, and their crepe cakes are closest to Lady M than any other I've tried. You can tell that the crepe is really thin with rich layers of cream in between. It's an Asian bakery so the sweetness level is not as intense, and the bread dough is on the soft and pillowy side. Oh did I mention they also offer dimsum and a bunch of other things too. Yes, you can eat your breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea here. And probably still want more.
