Solid spot for a father's day breakfast during our trip to Florida in 2026. Came on a Sunday and…read morethankfully and they were slammed but somehow we got seated right away for our party of 8. Coffee was solid, orange juice tasted fantastic, water tasted clean and not like tap water and meal was superb. They have a wide variety of options on their menu choices so it's great for a family and large party. I opted for a custom breakfast with a blueberry pancake, two eggs, tomatoes, and also had a chance to enjoy their eggs Benedict which was superb also. Service was great and our waiter nailed it despite being very busy and servicing several tables. Price wise they are very reasonable and I can see why they say Florida breakfasts are different and by different I mean in a very good way! 5 stars and thank you to Keke's Breakfast Cafe in Ocala!

We had been wanting to try this place since moving here. It's less than a mile from our house, and…read morethe Google photos made it look incredible. Smoothies, açaí bowls, premade meals, the whole package. I walked in with expectations, which was my first mistake. The ordering area is extremely small. There's barely enough space to stand, let alone browse or get oriented. Instead of overhead menus, you're expected to quickly flip through laminated menus kept in bins, mark your order on a sheet with a marker, and hand it to the cashier. There are no visible menus for the premade meals at all. The setup feels rushed and unintuitive, especially for first-time customers. There is virtually no seating. The few available seats were occupied by employees during our visit, which made the space feel even less welcoming. Another customer walked in while we were there and appeared just as confused about how to order, and unfortunately didn't receive much guidance. Functionality-wise, I'd rate the experience a 2/10. The space is overwhelming, poorly laid out, and not customer-friendly unless you already know the system. The food itself was good. The açaí bowl was a 7/10, but because ordering felt stressful, I didn't customize it and ordered it as-is, which I now regret. This café seems best suited for people who already frequent the gym next door and are familiar with the process. For anyone new, busy, or just stopping in casually, it's not an easy or comfortable experience. I truly wanted to love this place, and there's potential here, but the layout, lack of clear menus, and overall flow work against it.

Run here! Stumbled across this place when running some errands and so glad I did. I was greeted…read moreby a gentle giant - their German Shepherd and he had a tie on (of course because best foot forward). Caffeine + smoothie bowls + a lovable fur baby = sold. The coffee is great and they have non dairy friendly options. The smoothie bowls are delicious and you can get really any combination you're looking for. Being attached to a fitness facility, they also have supplements, shirts, healthy meal prep, smoothies, etc. The staff/owners are wonderful. Not a great place to sit and work just as a heads up. There aren't really any outlets and only a few tables, but that's fine! Don't think thats the crowd they're catering to anyway. I will definitely stop by when I'm here visiting family or for work.

Nevertheless, we came in around 9:30 AM and were placed on about a 10 minute wait. We were seated and immediately noticed the table we were led to had not been cleaned! It still had an empty cup and crumbs on the table. It took a little while to flag someone down to have us moved to a clean table. We placed our order and it took a while before we were even served our coffee and water. Apparently, they were making a fresh batch of coffee. My wife ordered the Founder's Hash and Eggs and I had The Classic. My wife liked the hash, crispy outside and tender inside with good flavor. My breakfast was fine, nothing spectacular. All in all, while we found the food quality decent enough, we came away unimpressed with service quality. We might try this place again outside of a busy day. Breakfast for 2 with tip came out to just under $38.

I called about 3 weeks in advance to book a private party in their small room. There were 12 of us (7 adults and 5 children). When I called to book I spoke with Anna who was super helpful in answering all of my questions. She was also our guide the day of the party. We were able to bring in our own food and drinks for the party. I will note that the party room does not have a ton of extra space if you have a larger party. There is a counter that can be used. Once our whole party arrived Anna gave instructions on what price point to stay within (pre arranged) and sent us off on our own to choose which ceramic we wanted. Then she instructed us to pick which colors we would like. You start with 4 and can add more as needed. Then we got to work. Our whole group was engaged in their project. We laughed and had a wonderful time. Once we were finished she collected our ceramics to store until they were put in the Kiln. The wait time was about 2 weeks. I would recommend for all ages and group sized.

I believe in rating establishments qualitatively, not quantitatively, so in other words; it doesn't…read morereally matter if the service was good if you came there to eat and the food was bad. You are rated on your purpose of patronizing the establishment. It's the same thing as if you took your car in to get new tires and they washed your car instead. With this in mind, I decided to take my wife here on February 8th to eat, because we were running behind on our shopping. The place seemed mostly clean, except for the walls, which could use some attention, as when BBQ sauce dries, it tends to look like dried blood. The place was pretty loud with people ordering up front and when attempting to move towards the back of the restaurant, we were bombarded by the loud music, as the place seemed like an echo chamber. They do have outside tables; however, it was a bit cold and we didn't have our jackets. We were greeted immediately upon entry and were informed they were running a special on large plates for $15, but after leaving later on discovered they only charged us that way on one plate and the other two were $17 & $18. I attempted to add chicken to my ribs plate and the lady informed us they don't do that, so we ordered three large plates of chicken, ribs and brisket. Each plate came with two sides; however, they didn't have enough sides to choose six to our liking. So in other words, you have to order six sides when getting three plates instead of being allowed to add chicken to a rib plate or a different combination. This practice is a ripoff and just another way of getting you to order more than you actually need. When we received the food, the (5) ribs (large plate?) were luke warm, straight out of the smoker and had no BBQ on them and the chicken was colder than the ribs, with mushy and greasy skin, not crisp. The brisket (less than two small handfuls), was colder still and cut into half inch cubes, as if to serve it to your dog. The Macaroni & Cheese was rubbery, fries were cold, which may have tasted better if served hot and cole slaw could have been less dry. Not to mention, all were served in very small containers, the least of which was the cole slaw, which was served in a ramekin sized container, which is smaller than the smallest baby food jar. The meals came with Hawaiian rolls, which were not fresh baked, but purchased from a company and they did not have options for either corn on the cob, corn bread, or biscuts. They do have containers of BBQ sauce to choose from, but I came here to eat BBQ, not smoked meats and slather BBQ sauce on them. Not everyone likes to do this. Even our cat turned its nose up at the leftovers. I cannot believe this place is rated higher than Pig and Cattle up the street on SR 200. They have great food, plenty of sides to choose from and are in larger portions for less. Out of the three BBQ extablishments we have been, this one comes in a distant third. I would recommend allowing customers to add items to their plate, have larger portion sizes on the side items, serve the food hot and put bbq sauce on the ribs. Also, don't say there is a special and not charge the customer appropriately. This will be a don't bother for us, but by all means, they have enough cold meat and ramekins to go around.

Betty Cakes Cafe, located inside the Your Hearts Desire gift shop in Ocala, is a charming bakery…read moreand café that pays homage to its founder, Miss Betty Williamson. The café offers a variety of lunch options, including quiche, soup, chicken salad, and deli sandwiches. My review, however, is based solely on Betty Cakes' cakes, as I've only stopped in for takeout desserts and haven't yet had the opportunity to sit down and enjoy lunch and cake at the café. Over the years, I've tried several of their specialty cake flavors, including Easter Dirt, Strawberry Shortcake, and Guava, as well as their Bundt cakes such as Sour Cream Pound, German Chocolate Rum, Hummingbird, and Pumpkin. Every one of them has been delicious. What I appreciate most is that these cakes don't just taste wonderful--they look special. Each slice appears to have been made with care and attention to detail. They're the kind of desserts that make you feel like you're treating yourself to something truly special, as if that slice of cake was made just for you. The cakes are consistently moist, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether it's a seasonal specialty cake or one of their Bundt cakes during the holidays, I've found myself returning again and again. In fact, I've made it a tradition to stop by for their specialty and holiday cakes throughout the year. There are plenty of places to buy dessert, but Betty Cakes creates cakes that are both tasty and memorable. The quality, presentation, and homemade touch keep me coming back. That's why I continue to be a loyal returning customer. If you're looking for a dessert that looks as good as it tastes, Betty Cakes Cafe is definitely worth a visit.
