    Cute cafe. Very open and lots of natural lighting. The drinks and food are mostly good. And there are some unique dishes here like menemen, which is Turkish-style scrambled eggs. I enjoyed the menemen. My friend ordered a crepe. She liked it, but felt like it was too sweet and didn't end up finishing it. We also got drinks. I ordered a london fog, and my friend ordered an iced coffee. However, the restaurant did not have any earl grey tea left, so they made my drink with black tea. I was a bit bummed by that. Overall, I think this is a good spot in Waterford to study, do work, or chat with friends.

    If you are.looking for a different experience , @jacobscaferestaurant is the place to go. Everything is so full of taste and spices. We love the turkish breakfast that is very healthy full of veggies, cheese, egg, just the way you need a breakfast to be!! The cafe which is very modern and clean estethique give you peace and warm at the same time. They have a chefs board in case you just want to. Hill between coffee. They offer sandwiches salad and pasta, but also They have gelatina and pastries, is one of my favorites places to spend time with friends.. Si buscas una experiencia diferente, @jacobscaferestaurant es el lugar ideal. Todo está repleto de sabor y especias. Nos encanta el desayuno turco, muy saludable, con verduras, queso y huevo, ¡justo como se necesita un desayuno! La cafetería, moderna, limpia y estéticamente agradable, te brinda tranquilidad y calidez a la vez. Tienen una pizarra del chef por si acaso. Entre cafés, ofrecen sándwiches, ensaladas y pasta, pero también gelatina y pasteles. Es uno de mis lugares favoritos para pasar el rato con amigos. #followformore @mrs.foodie #restaurant #turkishfood #turkishfollowers #breakfast #gelato #coffeetime #yelpelite #fun

    I was newly recommended this cafe by a friend and am so happy to find this local gem. The variety of gelato they provide is insane. I was warmly greeted when entering and offered samples of their gelato. There are not as many outlets but the room is very spacious. The staff are very friendly. Though my visit was cut short since the owner wanted to close early I will gladly pay them another visit to study and grab a scoop of gelato.

    Rib eye bowl

    A nice quaint spot in Waterford! I came here for dinner with my mom on a Wednesday night it was not busy. There was a chess club that was just starting as we were leaving, but before that it was quiet and slow. We each got a hot chai latte, big cup and delicious! I got the ribeye salad bowl and my mother got the ribeye sandwich. Hers was really good with the meat flavor and sauce onions and peppers. For the rib eye bowl, the steak had good flavor, but surprisingly I didn't find the rest of the salad didn't have much flavor. The dressing they put on, to me, was bland. Overall very healthy bowl, but I think adding some red bell pepper to it would give it some sweet flavor. At the end we both got a cup of gelato to go.

    First time visiting Jacobs Cafe and my friends and I have a fantastic visit. They had a chess board that the boys loved, played a game as we waited for our food. I tried their iced matcha latte which was soo creamy and full of flavor! I had their chicken caesar salad which was amazing! I really enjoyed the dressing, it was the perfect ratio, the greens were crunchy and chicken was tasty!

    Little shop

    I walked in, noticed cashier was on her phone which has always been chill with me but she didn't even care to get off it lol. I'm looking at the menu filled with AI pictures (wtf?) and then I order with the cashier who very clearly doesn't want to serve me. I saw her leaving like 5 minutes later so maybe she was just emotionally done with her shift but it was like 1:30. The mixed berry tea was fine but the sandwich was much worse. I think the chicken was just unseasoned chicken breast. It was bland and there was nowhere near enough sauce to help. The sauce was good but the taste was subtle so I forgot about it most of the time. The restaurant was pretty cute, I really liked seeing the little shop but that was kinda the only redeeming factor of my experience. One of the workers (not the cashier) brought me my food and she had a good personality but the damage was already done. TLDR; Subpar service, Subpar food/ tea, conflicting ambiance with weird AI menu, has a cute little shop

    Sunday lunch date!

    Jacob's cafe is aesthetically a beautiful place to grab a meal with family or that special someone, with kind employees and a nice selection of food. Bathroom was clean, and there is a selection of indoor and outdoor seating. The coffee and desserts (a nice selection of baked goods and assortment of gelato) make this ideal stop if you're sweet tooth is craving something good too! Though most of our meal was good, with my wife getting a pesto wrap and enjoying a rustic steak sandwich myself, our appetizer of a empanada was cold in the middle. The steak sandwich was good, but missing an X factor. My wife overall enjoyed the pesto wrap with no complaints, and the speciality coffees were absolutely the highlight of our lunch here. I am not certain we would return for the food, rather the coffee and desserts offerings. 3.5/5

    Very nice, cute and relaxing inside. Kinda peaceful.

    Jacobs was a very nice surprise. My daughter found it when we were looking for a new breakfast place. It is so cute inside and outside with outdoor seating. The food was very delicious. There are a lot of fresh baked goodies for there or take home. Try it out. You will be delighted.

    Indoor seating area - very boho!

    Great ambiance, the food was delicious, the staffs service was on point Got the menemen which was sooo tasty. Will definitely be coming back for the full Turkish breakfast in the future! Price point is a little high but worth it for the experience!

    Caramel latte, steak sandwich
    Rick A.

    Wow! This is the first time I had a steak sandwich and it was seasoned just perfect. The bread has a nice incredible flavor. The sauce was excellent, etc.. I love my caramel latte here with a little bit of chocolate on top.

    Avocado toast, butter croissant, and a Belgian waffle

    My daughter and I love trying new places. We came across this spot on Instagram and that same afternoon we was on the road for an hour drive to this spot. This cafe is beautiful point blank. The staff is so amazing and most importantly kind. I ordered the coconut matcha to try. It was my first time trying matcha. The barista explained throughly the taste, what's in it, and how it's made. I ended up not being earthy enough for match so I went back to order another drink. It was of course my choice to try the drink so I had zero issue paying for different drink. I'm not sure if the gentleman was the owner or a manager but he refused to let me pay for another drink after I didn't like the first one. I tried to give them my card a few times and he kindly said "I'll survive not having another $4". That was adorable! Wish I got his name. Aside from that we order a waffle, which was super fluffy and filling. I also ordered the avocado toast (w/o tomatoes) and I was in heaven. I wish I would have asked for a fried egg on top but nonetheless we throughly enjoyed ourselves. On our way out I stopped at the counter again and got my kiddo some vanilla gelato which was so creamy and just delish! This is definitely a hidden gem.

I was in the area visiting family and wanted to grab some coffee before the road trip home to South Florida. A local business is better than a Starbucks. Bonus is it's my favorite bakery in Orlando so I'm here for it. This Light on the Sugar is located next to the Regal Cinemas in Waterford Lakes. Squished between Charley's Philly Cheesesteaks and Zen Dumplings. What I dislike about this location is the wooden gazebo they built directly in front of these stores. It totally hides the name of the stores and it's not appealing. This made it hard to find too. They should honestly get rid of the gazebos, these poor stores may be losing potential business because people can't locate it. This bakery is the smallest one compared to the original two locations I've been to. It's ok because they still sell most of the same items, just less of a selection due to limited space. They offer the popular cream puffs, pastries, tarts, merch and drinks. On this particular day, I only got the Pistachio Latte and an Americano. My husband likes a good simple coffee with no bells and whistles. The other stuff is too much for him. Ha. I really debated getting pastries for the road but I was just at the Winter Park location yesterday and got an assortment so I was good on pastries. My Pistachio Latte was good, but it was a tad on the sweet sweeter side. I had my husband mix some of his Americano with my latte so it balanced out a little bit more for both of us. All in all, nice new and intimate location with a few tables indoors and outdoors. I still prefer the other beautiful and more aesthetic locations. Good thing this bakery wasn't here when I lived here, I would be broke! Lol.
