I haven't been to broken cage in a while. We decided to meet up some friends for drinks here before dinner. We made it in for happy hour. We were able to get a table for 4. Did a few rounds of drinks before happy hour ended. All the drinks were pretty good. Loved the vibe of broken cage. I forgot how it was inside. You were also able to order food next door from rusteak if you want. They had magical dining going on as well. We had arrangements to do Korean bbq but next time we will come back for drinks and food. A lot of the dining options on the menu sounded great. Our bartender was pretty awesome too!
So if you have decided that you want to visit Rusteak, visit the one in Thornton Park just to go next to it and visit Broken Cage. This little upscale bar is owned by Rusteak and is connected to it, but only located at the Thornton Park location. It is a very chill location with the only issue possibly being finding parking unless you pay at a garage not far from the location. Once inside be sure to take in all the nice decor and talk to the great bartenders. There is a happy hour which gives a nice discount to apps and signature cocktails. The cocktails are top notch and have very upscale combos which is nice. Then if you want food, with them being attached to Rusteak, you have access to their complete menu! They will of course bring and serve the food to you over at the Broken Cage side as well. Pro tip: If you do the Thornton Park Art walk I suggest parking and hitting up happy hour here first to start the festivities!
I had a great experience here yesterday for brunch. There was no wait compared to all the other restaurants in the area that required reservations ahead of time. It's such a cute spot for brunch! Very great atmosphere. They have a full bar too. I ordered a sangria and it was made fresh! It was super tasty. For appetizer, we order the loaded potatoes which were AMAZING. I will continue dreaming about these potatoes! I ordered the Korean chicken and waffles, it came with egg and bacon and a spicy sauce that was so good. Of course it was way too much food for me to finish it all but I wish I could've. My friend ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict and I got to try it, they were sooo yummy! I also heard great things about the shrimp and grits. Overall, we had a great experience here and I will definitely be back. Service was great too, although there was only one person working everything was quick and he was very friendly.
We had originally planned to go to Mather social gathering, but there was a line and we decided that we were too old to stand in line so we found ourselves here. This place is on my list of spots to check out. It's always fairly empty, but the decor is so cute. It's hard not to visit. We ordered some fries and desserts about 10 minutes and there was an hour left until the bar closed on a Saturday night. we were group 2 couples and all ordered different drinks. Everything was made well. The bartender was really nice and we had the place to ourselves. That is a win in my book. Everyone enjoyed everything they ate and a good time was had all around that hidden gem in the neighborhood and not too far from downtown, so if you find yourself in downtown and wanna escape the craziness and have a good drink head over this way.
We found this place on accident and were pleasantly surprised. The speakeasy serves food from the neighboring Rusteak restaurant with a few unique items (the open sesame shrimp were easily one of the best bites of the night, would certainly recommend). The service was very friendly but they forgot my cocktail until we were almost finished eating - they had a big party in so certainly understandable, just wish it had come sooner as I would have had another. Overall definitely worth going to for a date night environment!
A super cool place with a secret door, how cool is that? Great bartenders with the best drinks and an amazing ambiance, small but cozy and if you get hungry you can order from next door. Un lugar súper genial con una puerta secreta, ¿qué tan genial es eso? Grandes camareros con las mejores bebidas y un ambiente increíble, pequeño pero acogedor y si tienes hambre puedes pedir al lado.
From the moment we walked in this bougie little place, until the moment we walked out, everything was superb!!! The bartender was, hands-down, one of the best we have ever seen doing his craft!! Definitely a great place to hang out on a breezy Sunday afternoon. The vibe was very cool and the drinks were delicious!! Absolutely cannot wait to come back!!
I came here to have cocktails after a race in downtown Orlando! We sat outside; however, the inside area is very nicely decorated and a cool, chill environment. We were greeted upon entry (very nice host and bartender), and you are able to sit wherever you chose. Although I didn't order any food, it looked tasty and was presented well. There's no valet parking, but street parking and the parking garage are near. It's a very small, quaint place; but I enjoyed seating outside and people watching. It also doesn't hurt that the drinks tasted great and were reasonably priced ($10-16).
We originally were going for brunch at Rusteak (attached to broken cage) but after finding out about an hour wait, the hostess informed us to check out broken cage next door. We walked over and found a quieter, more exclusive environment with no wait and the same brunch menu as Rusteak! For us it was a win win. For food we had: - shrimp and grits: totally recommend delish flavor with the bacon bits on top - tiramisu french toast : lacked the marshmallow mentioned in the description, still tasty but would recommend another option to try first - Avocado BLT: delish, just messy with the egg so get ready to get your hands dirty! Oh and the sauce to dip your potatoes in is addictive.
After a filling dinner nearby, decided to stop by this cocktail bar for a nightcap. Not many people inside, and seemingly separated from an adjacent restaurant by just a door that connects the two. Was able to snag two chairs at the table in the back. Ordered the Fall Festival cocktail ($8.25) - Sipsmith gin with bitters, cinnamon, and apple. A little heavy on the cinnamon, but great to sip on. Since I love that brand of gin, opted on just the Sipsmith and Tonic ($9) next. A more generous pour overall. If the restaurant next door is still open, they do serve food, though it wasn't when we were there. Nice bartender and space. I think they may have cleaned the space recently when we arrived as it still smelled like cleaning supplies. Would recommend for an easy drink for the night without a crowd.
Perfect little bar for happy hour. The house cocktails are all $8 during happy hour and they pack a punch. I loved how easy going it felt and the bartender was an absolute gem. The perfect combination of friendly and cool. It looks like the menu changes a lot (based on Yelp pics). And after talking to the bartender I found out the owner and GM love mixology and are constantly adding new specials and trying new things. It's cozy, clean, and chic.
Amazing venue of unique custom craft cocktails. Jess was exceptional and knows her stuff. We will come back!
Zero is seriously the best bartender in Orlando! Not only does the Broken Cage have awesome drinks on their menu, but Zero can whip up anything you're feeling. You want something with Mezcal that's bitter, but also slightly sweet? Zero's got you. You describe it, you get it! The Broken Cage is a super cute small cocktail bar next to RusTeak, which is also connected to them by a back door. Hungry? You can also order food from RusTeak to have at the Broken Cage. There's about 6-7 bar seats, 2-3 high top tables, and multiple booths and regular tables throughout the intimate bar. Definitely a great place to go for happy hour, pre-dinner drinks, or a night cap! read more

The broken cage is across the street from my friends high-rise in downtown Orlando. We stopped in for a drink. It took a while for our drinks once we ordered and we started for two. Our server was friendly and made one heck of a cocktail. I ordered the Payne's Prairie with london dry gin, sage, nutmeg, honey, green chartreuse. The drink had hints of honey and spices. It was light and refreshing. The inside was pretty cool but dark. This would be a nice date spot. But we chose to sit outside as the temperature wasn't too bad. If you are looking for a spot with nice specialty cocktails this is the spot! read more
Love this spot whenever I dare visit downtown. The drinks are always rotating and the bartenders are very friendly and will make you an amazing drink. The place isn't big as it's a small bar attached to another restaurant however you can order food here. The food is excellent as well. read more

Ended up here by accident and I couldn't be more happy! Super classy, chic, sexy vibe. We had early dinner and drinks. The drinks are made with natural spices, everything is fresh. This margarita below-- the fruit design and the fruit itself was so tasty after. The burger was great. I can't wait to go back. :-) read more

I love Broken Cage! I have been here before and I had to come back. They do not serve food however they are connected to another restaurant whose menu is available there. The drinks are always really good so this time I had them make me a sangria which was super tasty. The service is also amazing! The bartender Connor is awesome and whenever we go we always feel very welcomed. If you are looking for a lowkey spot to grab a few drinks or go on a date this place is perfect. read more

When I saw Broken Cage was a stoned unturned by the Orlando Yelp squad, I quickly abandoned my Menagerie brunch (since this kind of opportunity is seldom). Broke Cage is a hidden in plain sight oasis. Whether your planning a guys/girls night, intimate night out with your lived one, or on need of some top shelf liquor than you have to stop by Broken Cage. Brought to you by your beloved creators of Rus-steak, Stubborn Mule, and yes the Menagerie. All different menus but all equally INCREDIBLE. Keep in mind Broken Cage is a more intimate setting, so parties of six or more may want to re-consider but on top of that it it is an eatery that you want to enjoy with smaller groups. Its almost like you stepped into a mystical land with two booths of hanging moss, cages cascading the ceiling and a hidden liquor store. During this visit we enjoyed "The Bailey" (no it doesn't have baileys) instead this is a drink filled with sophistication and made with finesse by Erica. A bartender that is a pro in working with the serial restaurant duo that has consistently put up incredible spots throughout Orlando. Shes perky, she knowledge, and the girl can concoct up some descents sips. Their food menu is a work in perfection so be sure to stop by before your favorites are gone. Overall I cant wait to meet my group of gurls, eat lunch with one of my partners, or bring some of my South Florida Elite friends to this place! The pictures don't do it justice you have experience the ambiance Broken Cage puts out! read more

This is a really cool little place.. It's small and has a great vibe. It feels like a speakeasy. They specialize in making classic cocktails. For food, you order off the Rusteak menu. It's one of my favorite places in downtown Orlando. I eat here once a week. read more

Such a cool hidden gem in Thornton Park. We came here on a Sunday for brunch and were so happy we did. This bar is normally a speakeasy but they share the same menu as The Menagerie next door. There is limited seating so keep that in mind. We tried some of their popular appetizers like The Devil which is crispy deviled eggs and the zucchini cheddar biscuits. Both of them were delicious and full of flavor. My favorite was the deviled eggs. Brunch items we enjoyed were the lobster scramble, crab cake Benedict, and the brunch cake. The brunch cake is actually a quiche with croissants in it, thick and creamy it definitely was filling. The crab cake Benedict was creamy from the hollandaise sauce and crispy crab cakes. The lobster scramble is decadent for sure, creamy soft scrambled eggs with spinach and tomatoes served with some hollandaise sauce poured on top. All the dishes were served with breakfast potatoes. We did have the unlimited mimosas and the apricot margarita. Both refreshing and filling. read more

The Broken Cage is like a Russian nesting doll of eateries. Located within and adjacent to the Stubborn Mule and Menagerie, this small space appears to the uninformed as a simple bar. Venture inside and you'll find an intimate space, short on tables but big on charm. A full menu is available here courtesy of the Stubborn Mule (they share the same owner and the same kitchen). Brunch is an excellent time to visit with plenty of music and a unique decor to both distract and engage. Wander around and check out the many items strategically placed and you'll soon discover another nesting doll within....a speakeasy liquor store! The staff is wonderfully informative and eager to share the many stories of how and why The Broken Cage came to be. Solid food and great drinks top off a unique dining experience for those who look for something off the beaten path. read more
