I have been super excited to try this new place since it is in my neighborhood downtown. Four stars for super cute seating area outside, delicious food menu with vegetarian and vegan options, and very friendly staff. The only reason I am not giving a five stars is because I ordered specifically no bacon on my breakfast sandwich and being a vegetarian it was very disappointing to get bacon on it (crumbles melted into the cheese which was challenging) and have to pick it off. I had already gotten home by the time I discovered it. Also the items in the cooler like milk, eggs, and side dishes from other restaurants were a bit pricey for me. However, I love the concept and despite the bacon situation, my sandwich was delicious. I would return and I'm happy they are in my neighborhood ! read more

It was a super cute location off the corner near downtown. We were really excited to try this place for brunch. Pros: it's very cute! Dog friendly. Staff was so friendly and helpful. It's Market location where you can also order deli meats and food etc. besides enjoying a meal. They also have a cute alcohol popsicle selection. There was a few of us and we ordered mimosas, bagel sandwiches, chicken and waffles, and the tacos. Cons: very limited seating. Had to sit outside in the rain since two couples were already seated inside. We huddled around the umbrella. the food was ok. I had the tacos and my husband had the chicken and waffles and both were good but they needed some type of flavor with maybe a sauce. Their mimosas were ok, mainly juice, came in a small cup for $5. For how little and how much juice, I wouldn't have paid $5. Also, we got the bagel sandwich with a hair sitting on the top of the food. She brought it back in, made a new one, and said she's welcomed to a free mimosas. It would have been nice for her to bring a new mimosas out anyways to us or to the group. read more

Great Vegan Options. Amazing friendly Staff, ambiance 10/10. Love the outside sitting

Sad to say I was thoroughly disappointed. At first I was excited because there were half a dozen dogs hanging out front with their owners. This gave the place a welcoming vibe. Sadly this was the only highlight. I ordered the "house smoked, pulled chicken with homemade bbq sauce." Unfortunately it was neither smoked nor did it come with a sauce that seemed to be anything other than Kraft or something store bought. The most misleading aspect was that the chicken was certainly not "pulled" (see picture). There were a few chunks of chicken that seem like they were baked previously then thrown in hot bbq sauce to warm up. It also came on a bagel that should have been toasted (it wasn't). As a result this turned out to be a soggy, slimy mess. read more

Eola General - Convenience Stores Near Me - Orlando, Florida

A true hidden gem of metro Orlando. Relatively small, but worth coming and staking out a spot on their patio during early evening aperitivo or relaxed Sunday morning brunch. It's easily apparent that the hands-on, customer facing ownership and their staff take pride in this neighborhood establishment, and serve from the heart. Each time we visit, a warm greeting always awaits. The menu is concise, but well thought out. I've yet to take advantage of the wine and bottle service selection, but if I were directly residing in the area, it's easy to imagine making use of the "general store" aspect, regularly. Thank you for this wonderful space. read more

I can't believe I've worked around lake Eola for 5 years and never been to this place! I've been missing out. Such a unique spot offering breakfast, lunch, dinner and way more! I got one of their breakfast sandwiches and they were super flexible as I customized my order. Their N.Y. style everything bagel is delicious. Super fluffy with a little toasted crisp to it. I will definitely be back again soon! read more

Ordered 2 sandwiches, had potential but one of our orders that was supposed to have honey ricotta had some spread with spices in it. Not what we ordered and did not like it. Had potential and the other sandwich was very good but unfortunately our order wasn't accurate. read more

WOW! I've been hearing about this place for awhile and decided to try it. First off, I was overwhelmed by the friendly greeting we received. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE shouted hello and welcome! The menu is a mix of vegan and non-vegan items. The Chicken Florentine was amazing, hearty and totally satisfying, my wife had a Sunrise Bagel sandwich and basically built her own with a choice of Cheddar Jalapeño bagel and Roasted Garlic cream cheese, it was spot on! My 4 y/o is fussy but Leslie suggested a half grilled cheese with a cup of tomato basil soup, she ate it ALL! Even our dog was treated with enthusiasm with treats and lots of kind words! We wanted wine to take home and the owner, Robin, was very knowledgeable with great service and suggestions. It's very apparent this team enjoys what they do, the people who come in and sharing their knowledge to provide an over the top experience. Overall this is a 10 out of 10 gem tucked away in a quaint neighborhood with great energy and a cool vibe. I highly recommend stopping in and seeing for yourself what a cool space Robin and her team have created! It's a MUST try for EVERYONE! Rock on Eola General peeps! read more

Been regularly coming for several years. Lots of vegan options (including cream cheeses in varying consistencies and flavor; you can ask what's available today). Cool vibe. A nice spot for those of us who like vegan breakfast. I typically order a vegan cc bagel and an oat milk latte and sit on the patio. I appreciate local businesses that care about their product and customers! read more

Love this community location featuring great beer and wine selections. Looking forward to the new Belanger Bagels featuring Montreal style bagels coming soon! Great place and great people and great food 5 out of 5 stars read more

Not a fan. After waiting nearly 20 minutes to place an order we went outside and sat at one of their picnic tables. The couple that ordered at the same time as us received their breakfast bagel sandwiches within about ten minutes. They finished eating and we were still waiting. We saw other couples that ordered well after us get their orders as well. We went in to get an update on our food and one of the cooks angrily looked up and yelled that she was working on it. About another ten minutes went by before we got our food. The roast beef panini special was great. I on the other hand was not as pleased with my sandwich. I had the turkey bacon and egg bagel and it was strange. It was overly sweet, like the bacon and egg had been seasoned with sugar. Needless to say, I did not enjoy it. I also think they are way overpriced. The menu seemed to be quite vegan/vegetarian focused which isn't usually my go to. So if you prefer vegetarian joints and don't mind waiting forever and paying too much for a sandwich, then this is you place. read more

Great lowkey and quiet spot right outside dt, in Thornton park neighborhood. Variety of wines and snacks to choose from and take home or enjoy on their patio. One of my favorite spots in the neighborhood read more

What a joke. Worst customer service ever. Waited 35 mins in line and by the time we had a chance to order there was no time to wait for the food to be made. Left w 3 drinks that we had to pay for while sitting in line. Don't bother unless you have all day to sit down and wait hours for your food. Next time how about you let everyone in line know how long their wait is going to be as you walk past them 15 times. read more

In general this business is amazing. Until it isn't. Today I went to get dinner while walking my dog and ordered the nova lox. I walked back home, sat down to eat and to my surprise THE MAIN INGREDIENT the nova lox salmon was missing. This is my SECOND bad experience with this location THIS WEEK. 4 days ago i went in again while walking my dog on lunch break so I figured why not grab some lunch. All I asked the cashier to do was to wrap my sandwich in parchment paper so I can throw it in my bag while I head back to work and not have to worry about the sandwich falling apart on me. The cashier looked at me like I had 3 heads and was REFUSING to wrap my sandwich which I did not think was a extravagant request. She asked me 3 times back to back if I wanted the sandwich or not which I found weird and I explained I did, I simply wanted it wrapped. After MUCH ATTITUDE and side eye as she looked at one of her coworkers who I believe is the manager the kitchen made the food. Her manager then proceeded to step into the kitchen to hand me my food and also give me attitude when she gave me my order as I asked if everything was in the one small bag they handed me. I truly don't know what the issue is especially when I'm willing to order at $14 bagel AND I always leave a tip. I personally am a Hispanic male and to be frank I feel like I am being racially profiled and targeted because this is a predominantly white neighborhood. I completely understand that it is a small business however you should treat ALL OF YOUR PATRONS the same especially when they are willing to pay inflated prices AND TIP. I still ate the bagel because it was my dinner HOWEVER it is unacceptable that THE MAIN INGREDIENT in your food is missing. I will be returning tomorrow to see if I can at least get a nova lox WITH THE SALMON IN IT as a replacement for tonight. I will post again over my experience tomorrow to see if the business will at least have the common decency to replace my food. read more

So excited to finally visit this spot. I live downtown in Modera and am so happy to have found this place. It's about a 10 minute walk for us. My friend and I stopped in for bagels and we each also had some chicken salad. Everything was really flavorful and quality. I'm looking forward to coming back and having some wine and cheese on the patio. I usually judge a place based on their wine offerings so this definitely goes to the top of the list. Love the casual vibe but very quality product. This will definitely become a staple for me. read more

Wow I'm pleasantly surprised by this place! I knew I'd like the vibe and the ambiance of the place based on the decor and the patio layout but I didn't expect to like the vegan food as much as I did! We split a bagel with the garlic chive spread and a sunrise bagel. The turkey bacon was actually super flavorful and the texture was very nice, not at all rubbery like some turkey bacons out there. Had a nice maple taste to it too. The mimosa was so yummy, the perfect ration of champagne and orange juice that tasted super fresh. My husband is a coffee person and he loved the cold brew on tap with half and half but I would recommend getting it with the sweetener they recommend, vanilla almond creamer. I think we'll definitely be here again, it's almost 12 on a Sunday morning and we love all the pups, the people and the shade at this time of day is perfect to sit outside even though it's 90 something degrees outside. Their tables all have umbrellas that keep the black furniture cool and bonus, their chairs outside are SO comfortable. I hate places that have uncomfortable or unstable outside seating but we were very happy at our table. read more

This is my first time trying Eola General for lunch and -- yum! I ordered the Eola Turkey Club on Asiago Herb bagel with Jalapeño Pimento Cheese, no tomato add pickled onion. It's delicious, the turkey bacon is a good texture for someone who likes crispy pork bacon. The jalapeño pimento has little bits of jalapeño but could use a little more heat. The bagel is so soft, like I could sleep on it soft. The price ($14 through Uber) is so worth it for the portion and they give you a side of seasoned chips, I think the seasoning is tajin, it's so good. I also ordered the Matcha Lemonade which ultimately is why this review isn't 5 stars. It's a little too sweet for my liking with no discernible lemonade nor matcha flavor. I can't wait to check this place out in person and hopefully try more things! read more

Food tastes ok but is overpriced. It's a bagel with store bought ingredients. Nothing is made in house. Even with no line, it always take between 7-10 minutes before you are ever acknowledged at the register. 3 times in 2 months and it's the same scenario every time. Takes forever to place an order at the register, and then it takes twice as long to receive your food. Save yourself the time, go to Chipotle right down the street. read more

Whew this place is expensive! I'm going to give 5 stars because I love supporting small local business. The staff and owners are extremely friendly whenever we come in. The quality is really great. My only issue is the prices. Specifically with the lattes. It's eight dollars for a double latte. And then everything is an up charge $.45 for a sweetener, and additional charges if it's a different type of alternative milk. Gosh forbid you want an extra shot of espresso in your latte- that's three extra dollars. At eight dollars for a regular size 16oz latte, I would expect to get whatever flavor and milk of my choice. We love this place, but find that we cannot visit as frequently as we would like just because the cost does not make sense compared to local coffee shops in the area. If the pricing was a little bit more friendly, we'd be here every day. read more

Being from Tallahassee, I went alone to EOLA. It was such a great experience, I had to come a second time! Everyone we're so helpful since I expressed that it was my first time! I initially came for the bagel with the flamin' hot Cheetos spread, but I went with the Brunch & was able to customize the ingredients! The ingredients were fresh & it was beyond satisfying! It will keep you full for like 6 hours! Their bagels are HUGE!! For my second visit, I was being adventurous and the staff really helped me out a lot with my preferences. I'm so appreciative of these ladies. Thank you!! They have daily specials and I ordered the bagel with kimchi & vegan roast with their pasta salad w/ an Asian twist. I enjoyed it as well. It's definitely a memorable experience! It was my favorite joint in downtown Orlando! read more

This place is extremely cute tucked into a very quaint neighborhood. Both my boyfriend and I got "the bagel" and I was able to get it on the gluten free bread. We also got a coconut cold brew. I liked the sand which, not so much the cold brew. I love the concept, and I definitely want to return, but the prices are a little steep (taking into consideration nearby coffee places). Give it a try though, it makes for a very peaceful morning. read more

Really enjoyed the bagel sandwich, the bread was so crunchy and fresh that made it all worth it. Loved the drink selection with spirits, wines, flavored waters, you name it. Outside seating area is super cute! Not a 5 because I would have liked to have more than two types of bagel choices but that is just me. Would def recommend this place for a quick bite. Seems like my prayers have been answered!! Read the business reply amazing to know! read more

Charming location, like stepping back in time. Carefully prepared and creatively designed sandwiches, nice selection of wine by the bottle or glass. read more

I understand this neighborhood is pretty well off but the prices here at just crazy for the portions and quality. The makeover of the space is wonderfully done and the staff are pleasant. That is worth the two stars. Also love the natural wine program. But I tried the breakfast bagel and the roast beef and black garlic sandwich. The bagel was the better of the two but at $9 its a rip off. It probably needs to sit between $5-6. The roast beef was very disappointing. As someone who has made their own black garlic at home and would love to do it all the time if it didn't smell terrible I was super excited for it! The beef tasted like bad crock pot beef and the garlic was barely to be found on the skimpily portioned sandwich. All for the low, low, artisanal price of $14. Drive the 5 minutes to Orlando Meats and spend less for much, much better food. read more

Just OK... had the salmon bagel. Spent $14 for two pieces of lox. Was looking forward to the bagels here, but again just average. Cute store and atmosphere, but I don't think I"lol be running back to try anything else. My husband has the bbq chicken bagel he enjoyed his meal. read more

The good: Great remodel of the old location, interesting (and tasty) beer and wine selection, killer cheese board, and friendly staff. They stay true to their general store roots, keeping bottled water, milk, juices, and various things like lemon and onion available. It's particularly nice to see local Juice Bar offerings in the fridge. The Green Tomato sandwich and The Bagel are menu standouts. The ok: Sides and chips could use more flavor. Potato salad is missing something. Maybe salt? Something richer? Fruit salad is always a little off. Last time I wondered if the pineapples were canned. Slaw is watery. And chips have a dusting of seasoning that is super dry and lacks taste. With a little fine-tuning, this spot could be great. read more

This magnificent little place recently opened in my neighborhood and in all, I can say it's the perfect addition to our street. Myself, roommate, boyfriend, neighbors and other friends we have brought there have had nothing but positive things to say about Eola General. The wine and beer selection are on point and all within extremely reasonable price points - we definitely like our wine ;). There are eggs and some veggies if you need them in a jiffy. The food, at least for The Bagel, egg salad sandwich, melon salad, daily salad and boiled peanuts those which we have tried so far, have been absolutely delectable. Further mentioning, their variety of coffees and pastries are easy for a morning or afternoon pick-me-up. For the cherry on top, the staff has been more than friendly and kind to us. They make you feel part of the family while you're there - greeting you with a smiling face and engage in tiny conversations. Even the single time we had a complaint about something, one of the owners talked to us himself and made amends of the situation. Really a great group of people! Looking forward to many great times sitting at their counter inside or picnic tables outside! Cheers to a great beginning Eola General, Ashley read more

Friendly staff and great selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. MoonPies, bags of grits, and homemade soaps also give the place that old school corner store feel. My first visit here since Handy Pantry, I thought the sandwiches came with a bagel, not on a bagel, and got a turkey club on cinnamon raisin, which proved interesting. But even with that sort of mishap, you really can't go wrong because everything is delicious.The bean salad even convinced me I was incorrect, I actually don't hate black-eyed peas. I've since brought friends here for sandwiches and have made weekly visits my new thing. read more

This place is a GEM!!! The Employees and the Manager Robin go above and beyond to make Every single person who walks in the door feel welcome. They Strive for Perfection and hit the mark every time! With that being said I unfortunately was witness the other day to a patron who was obviously under the influence of drugs! She was disruptive, rude and totally out of control! She was holding up the line , on the phone with her bank arguing because she didn't have funds to pay for her purchase! She was yelling using foul language and completely inappropriate while there were families within ear shot! The cashier respectfully asked her to take her phone call outside until she could clear up the issue. Well all Hell broke loose!! The F words were running rampant! So sad that anyone who was there had to be subject to such a disrespectful, rude and complete disgrace of a human! The person then posted a review of the situation that was a complete fabrication of the facts! Clearly there are 2 sides to every story, but as an unbiased bystander this is clearly retaliation against a local shop who deserves applause for handling this situation with dignity and Grace. read more

Love the atmosphere and the bagel sandwiches are delicious. The staff is so friendly and helpful and love the outdoor seating.

This is my first time visiting Eola General and it did impress. It has a great outdoor seating with picnic tables and much shade from the umbrellas. I noticed people brining their dogs and families which made it feel very comfortable and casual. The set up inside is very nice and and chic. It has a market/cafe feel, where you can pick up some produce, cheese, and wine but also sit down to eat quality food (also people working on laptops). I got " The Bagel!" And subbed bacon for more veggies with a side of potato salad and chips. It was very delicious and the portion was enough to fill you up! I also tried their hot coffee from Wavelength coffee co. and have to say that it was delicious and at a decent price for $2.50. I will be back another time for their evening wine and coconut cold brew! read more
