    Piña Colada
    Naillil S.

    Love the Friends themed vibe and the piña colada refresher great balance, would get it again. The sandwich fell flat tuna had no flavor. Bread was great, however I did substitute the tomato for avocado. They were also really nice about it, offering to smoosh the avocado they didn't have to. Overall cute setting, good drink, so-so sandwich. Not sure I'll go back or not.

    Salad
    Juliemar R.

    Love that this place is still going strong. All of the menu updates that they have made have been great. I love their salad. This is a great place for working remote and grabbing coffee and a bite. They do have free wifi so it works! It can get really busy during breakfast and definitely on the weekend but still a great spot to hang out. This is a fast casual place where you order at the counter and then they bring you the food. They have sweet and savory crepes and some great sandwich and breakfast options. The baldwiniccino is my favorite drink on the menu but sometimes they have some great seasonal items. It may be hard to accommodate a large party but this place have plenty of room for 2-4 :)

    I had no idea it was "Friends" themed until my wife brought it up. Place was a little cramped , and they messed up my wife's Chai latte order. Some people will fall in love with this place. Cheers

    I had dinner in Baldwin Park, and the place we were eating at had run out of dessert. So they recommended the cafe down the street. We walked down, and found what we assumed was the aforementioned cafe. We walk in, and get slapped in the face with Friends ideology. Not a bad thing. In fact, a great thing. Friends from top to bottom. Other various artwork adorned pretty much every square inch of wall. It was counter service, and the people were very friendly. I had a few questions about the dozens of different items in the glass cabinets, and I ended up working my way to what I thought were the appropriate decisions. I couldn't find the exact items we ordered I don't think, but the first one was some type of cheesecake with a thin layer of lime curd or something on top. It was good! It was tall, and the cheesecake was dense enough to hold up strong. No collapse here. A fair amount of sweetness, a good sharp zing from the lime, and a nice crust to tie it all together. Our second item, though, I think was the Hazelnut Chocotart. This looked good, but it was not great. The tart crust itself was fantastic. The roasted whole hazelnuts on top were excellent. But the entire rest of the volume of the thing was pure, thick, overly sweet chocolate ganache. I'm sure some people would love that, but I recognized the lack of balance, and was off put. Overall, this was a pleasant experience. The atmosphere was unbeatable, the cheesecake was good, and there are plenty of other pastry and food items available for me to try. I'll be back one day.

    Pros: Loved the Friends ambiance. People can say they love Friends, but these people actually show it, and I love that. Service was pretty ok. It was counter service, they were friendly enough, but there were a few tables that were dirty when we came in, and it was pretty slow. Cons: The food itself was pretty ok. A very stiff cheesecake had good fruity notes. And there was a hazelnut tart that was entirely too much chocolate. But they were tasty! Tips: Skip the cheesecake and the tarts. There are plenty of other options in the glass case.

    This is one of my new favorite café spots! The coffee is great and there is a solid selection of specialty drinks without being too many that it's overwhelming. I really love the Dubai pistachio latte, but the current special, which is lavender, I love. Their matcha is also really good and not overly sweetened. Truthfully, I did not expect the food to be as good as it is. I guess I just don't expect much beyond frozen sandwiches and pastries from a coffee shop, but they have a pretty full breakfast menu. My favorite is the avocado toast with smoked salmon... I could eat this for breakfast every day. Everything is really fresh and the breakfast portions are pretty decently sized as well next to my list to try is one of the crêpes. It's a relatively small spot, but they have a decent amount of seating inside and outside. The staff is really friendly. I have to say, I am a huge friend fan so that theming makes it even more fun for me, but it's honestly great either way. The changing art gallery on the walls is also a nice touch.

    I absolutely love the service here! I've been a few times alone and once with a group a friends. It's always accommodating and the clientele is just as friendly as the staff. I've had several menu items but of course the coffee takes center stage. I really enjoy the hot options to sit, sip and enjoy. I've had two of the charcuterie options, the salad and wine as well. All have been fantastic. Parking is as expected for the area, but the experience is well worth it

    Friends fans, this is your Central Perk moment. Grab a giant mug, sink into a cozy couch, and channel your inner Ross, Monica, Chandler, or Phoebe. Because yes, Rachel might just be the one serving you. I think they could lean into the theme even more though: imagine baristas dressed as the gang, '90s décor all around, and iconic tracks like "Smelly Cat" playing softly in the background. Know what I mean? That being said, no complaints about the service. It was phenomenal. My decaf oat milk cappuccino and the mint chocolate chip gelato both hit the spot. Oh, and bonus points for dog lovers: they hand out pup-friendly treats -- whipped cream cups topped with a dog biscuit. And when you visit, just remember that "I told you that was gonna be this way"...

    Came back to Baldwin Perk with my husband on a Saturday morning for brunch. Everything was just as good as last time! The only downside was that my husband's order came out about 20 minutes before mine, and they forgot my coffee until I reminded them after my food arrived. I'd still definitely come back because I love the food, but next time I might try to visit during a less busy time for better service.

    A very fun and unique Friends themes Cafe located in the heart of downtown Baldwin Park. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi, full meals, and delicious snacks! The interior decor as well as obviously the name, lends themselves into being themed around the famous sitcom. They have tons of adorable little nods and themed decor throughout. Stop was very friendly and quick to get everything out. It is also a very busy location during peak times so be ready to wait for a seat or take your snacks to go while you walk around the Baldwin area. Overall: A A fun themed cafe in the middle of Baldwin Park.

    Located in downtown Baldwin perk, this was a very busy coffee shop for a Monday morning! There were tons of tables, chairs, sofas and outdoor seating available. They serve both drinks and food options, along with a bakery case. They didn't have a ton of specialty drink items which is what I enjoy about trying new coffee shops. There was WiFi available which made remote work possible from the cafe, although it was really loud so not the best remote work location. The coffee was just ok, nothing special.

    Gelato!
    Michelle M.

    Love this coffee spot! Inside is very cozy with plenty of seating and lots of cool art, including "Friends" inspired decor. Their coffee is made well, the pesto chicken flatbread is amazing, they even have yummy gelato! Definitely a great place to grab a quick bite, a yummy drink, or to hang out.

    What a sweet little gem in the lovely Baldwin park neighborhood! Fans of the hit show Friends will obviously get a kick out of the themed decor! I adored it myself as a fan of the show and made sure to get some instagram pics. To be honest, I didn't expect much in terms of quality given that the appeal would presumably be in the theme. Glad to admin that I was wrong though! The coffee and breakfast were very nice! The portion to price ratio was also a bonus as I ordered one of the boards and it was quite large! Easily shareable- I had leftovers. If I weren't so full, I'd have grabbed a pastry but my friend had one of the double chocolate muffins and gave good feedback. As far as my meal, I was extremely impressed with the waffles. They were very crispy and just the right touch of sweet! I do wish they had proper maple syrup but at these prices can't expect the world! My only minor complain about the board would be the eggs. I asked for scrambled and I think they were either a powder mix of eggs or frozen. Just lacked flavor and were super rubbery. Felt misplaced amongst the other quality items. Otherwise, I was very satisfied! This is my new regular coffee joint in Baldwin. I come to visit semi regularly so will plan for my coffee fix here. Do note though that the cafe is counter service and tables are self seating. It can be very hard to get a table as the place gets packed. You might have to be patient but it's worth it!

I'll start with the positives: the space itself is really cute, it's in a great location, and I love that they have children's books available for families who come with their little ones. I also tried a chocolate ecclair, and it was absolutely delicious. Their pastries and desserts looked really good overall. Unfortunately, my experience with the food and drink was mixed. I ordered a matcha and avocado toast. The avocado toast was okay, but it was a little bland. The matcha, however, was extremely bitter. I'm not someone who typically asks for a drink to be remade or changed, and I really tried to drink it, but it was so bitter that it was making me nauseous. I politely asked if there was anything they could do, and I was simply told that there was nothing they could do and that I could just add more sugar. I understand that everyone has different preferences, but I do think there's an opportunity here to provide better customer service. Sometimes something as simple as offering to remake the drink or offering a replacement can make a huge difference in a customer's experience and whether they want to come back. If I return, it would probably be for one of their pastries and maybe a coffee rather than the matcha.

You still get that rich coffee flavor without it being too bitter. The ambiance is one of my favorite things about this place.

Seating is limited though, and it can get pretty busy, so keep that in mind if you're hoping to sit and hang out. Definitely a coffee shop worth checking out in Orlando, especially if you like stronger coffee with unique flavors and a cute atmosphere!

However, they always have fun creations popping up in their case. Some fan favorites are the Mango Sticky Rice Tart and literally any of their pop tarts. The staff is kind and efficient.

However, they have plenty of outdoor seating that's perfect for hanging out with friends on a Sunday morning. Literally one of my favorite spots. Thank you Buttermilk for being THAT girl.

    I have been a Buttermilk Bakery fan for well over a decade. Until this last weekend…read more I got online at 8:15 in the morning to place my order. Each item that I selected came up with a message that read, "Our store is not currently accepting orders." I tried again a few minutes later. Then again. And again. And again. I tried to call and received a voicemail that stated a different number. At 8:50am, the option to order seemed to be back up and running. I ordered five items, including the Roasted Tomatoes & Goat Cheese Quiche. For context: I live 45 minutes away from Buttermilk Bakery. It used to be on my way to work but, as of a few years ago, that is not the case anymore. So, it is now a special occasion destination. Reserved only for weekends when I can make the trip. More context: I have been raving to one of my closet friends for years about how much I love this place. My most emphatic musings have been about the quiche. Today, since she and I were planning an afternoon poolside, I thought that I would surprise her with an assortment of Viennoiserie and other items. At 10:36am, I received a call from Buttermilk. The woman on the phone informed me that they had run out of the quiche. How?!? Once the website was working, I was able to place my order quickly and the item didn't even read, "Low stock." I know that this is a small problem in a world full of large problems, but the thing that really set me off is that when I arrived at the store, the person in line in front of me asked for the Strawberry Buttermilk Pie. He was told that they were out of stock. He was pleasant in stating that there appeared to be slices in the refrigerator case. The girl behind the register told him that they were being held for online orders. When it was my turn, I stated that no one had held my slice of quiche. She blandly said, "I am sorry," and proceeded. I then stated that I was unhappy and had driven some distance. She asked if I would like something else. I responded that the person on the phone had simply told me that I would receive a refund. I then asked for the girl to check on my refund. She said it was not processed yet. So, I said that I would wait. She needed to ask for help to process the refund. She wasn't nasty to me, but she did not care one iota. My effort and subsequent inconvenience meant nothing. I wonder if my refund would even have been processed had I not asked. My friend and I thought the pastries that we received were fine, but she is fitness-minded and was hesitant to indulge in so many carbs without the rich protein that the quiche would have provided. And, yet, more context: This happened once before. With the quiche. Maybe a year ago. Though, that time, I believe it was a butternut squash quiche. My husband needed to be in the area, so he suggested that he pick-up at Buttermilk. When he arrived, he was told that there would be no quiche. No call. No nothing. He didn't think to ask for a refund and we never received one. That time, I simply thought, "Well, accidents happen." This time, I think that I received very shoddy service. I felt very disrespected. I felt unseen. I have loved this place, but I am so disappointed.

It featured tofu (the menu says almond crusted, but it wasn't), house made lentil sausage, buttermilk ranch dressed kale, spicy aioli, on a brioche bun.

Will definitely be back and see what other seasonal offerings they might have in the future!

    this is one of my favorite coffee spots in orlando! the coffee is always delicious, the atmosphere…read moreis welcoming, and the employees are always kind and helpful. i find that it's a great spot to bring groups to hang out and get food and drinks. most menu items are easily made vegan, and the specials are often vegan as well. i can easily spend a good chunk of time here just exploring the space and checking out the goods that they are selling! the only downside of this coffee shop is the crowd--both parking and seating can get incredibly difficult to obtain. i've never been able to not find a spot, but i've come pretty close. i do believe they are moving/temporarily closing at the end of july, so if you've been waiting to go here i urge you to go now. i'm sure they will come back eventually with a new space, but there is not yet a confirmed date (i think).
