I've been going to Aurora for a few years now, primarily for their Happy Hour. It's one of the few…read moredecent happy hours in all of Oviedo, as crazy as that is. They have a few nice craft beers on tap and the most amazing hummus platter ever. So many places give you a tiny dollop of hummus, a few crackers and if you're lucky a few cut up carrots. Not here, you get a giant amount of hummus - you get house made lavash - and you get beautiful baby medium sized carrots and all of that is only $8 on happy hour. The hummus is very flavorful with a tiny kick and the lavash is super crunchy with an amazing seasoning on it that reminds me of "everything bagel seasoning". You'll see two different pictures - these were taken a year or more apart but you can see things have barely changed. You always get the amazing crackers and carrots and a huge amount of hummus. They also have a few great wines by the glass on happy hour, some yummy sliders, and now a pepperoni pizza that looks awesome but I haven't tried yet.

Dined here for the first time with a group of about 12 in the private room. I gotta admit, service…read morewas slow, especially when we were checking out and it was a company dinner so there was only 1 credit card to run which took about 30 mins. Other than that, the food was great. I sampled a few items of the apps that people ordered. From what I can remember, the truffle fries really stood out. For my entree, I got the chopped elk medium cooked. It was fantastic. Very delicious and almost tasted like a really beefy meatloaf. Not gamey at all. The sauce drizzled on it was so savory. I wished there were more mashed potatoes underneath because those were amazing too. It was also a very big portion. Definitely recommend. Would come back again and try something else or even order that again.

Very glad I did so! Nice counter service cafe type that immediately feels welcoming. The tables were all clean so I quickly made my order and found a spot to tuck into. First things, the maple latte I ordered exceeded my expectations. Lovely latte with great flavor that wasn't overpowering. Sometimes the sweeteners pack too much punch but this latte was spot on. The food was also nice! Very southern comfort. Flakey and buttery biscuits galore with all the fixings available. Grits, potatoes, bacon, you name eat. I tried the berry waffles which were really nice as well. Again, not too sweet! The flavor was spot on though they could have been a tad crispier. But it's a solid option for coffee and brunch in the area. The prices are super reasonable and the staff was patient and friendly.

The menu is pretty basic, as was the food. Nothing exceptional in my opinion, but we had a great meal, had a very decent price! I enjoyed my biscuits and gravy, and my husband's Nutella French toast tasted even better than I expected. The staff was great, and our food did not take long to come out. Seeing the items that the other members of our table ordered, if I were to return here, the side of cheesy potatoes is at the top of my list! These looked delicious. Another nice touch was the mural on the back of the building, behind the patio seating area. Such a nice spot for a photo as we came here on our honeymoon!

This was my first time at this Oviedo staple and I had a wonderful experience! I seen many posts on…read moresocial media for this restaurant and knew I had to visit for myself. I went on a Saturday around 10am and was seated right away. The restaurant is very large. There is a cute area in the front with merch options, a diner counter, lots of booths and tables, and a big porch area in the back for seating. The restaurant sits along a popular bike trail and you will see many people biking on by. The service was great. The waitress was so pleasant and helpful when ordering and made sure I got everything I wanted. Timing in drinks and food was spaced out nicely. I ordered a large orange juice and the white chocolate chip pumpkin pancakes. Plus got scrambled eggs and 2 sausage patties. The pancakes were so beyond delicious! I highly recommend ordering. I didn't even need syrup the pancakes stood well alone. The sausage was very flavorful. My friend got the sausage gravy with biscuit, eggs, potatoes, and bacon. They loved their meal. I can't wait to come back and try dinner here. They are open for all the meals!

Another successful & delicious visit to Another Broken Egg Café…read more As per usual my husband ordered and enjoyed the chicken and waffles. He stated, "I don't know where they get there chicken from, it's good chicken." I ordered the new menu item Harvest Hash with 2 medium well egg and coffee. The coffee is piping hot, just like a like it. I love a good hash. This one has brussel sprouts, spinach & roasted onions. I asked them to omit the goat cheese. The biscuit beignets are yummy. The crispy edges are a delight. Another Broken Egg Café has plenty of seating inside. It has a full bar that connects the inside with the covered outside seating. Lilly, our server was nice, attentive and informative.

Service was fair but not stellar for having 2 people.... I was given a courtesy order of Biscuit Beignets which were delicious. Main dish was the Crab Cake Benedict. It was good and an unusual combination which I enjoyed. The hollandaise congealed a little quickly, so i am guessing it was packaged and not made in house. My side of bacon was very well done and almost hard...it tasted like it was a day old and reheated. Before leaving, I used the restroom and it was grungy...it looked like it had not been cleaned for a while....it was not encouraging and I questioned what condition the kitchen might be in since they neglected the bathrooms so bad. Overall not a terrible experience but I probably would not return....

It was pretty poppin this morning! Almost every table was filled. I will for sure come back soon to try other menu items!

There has not been a single time over the last 5 years that I have come here and received good…read moreservice. Sure, the people are nice enough, but I am quite literally ALWAYS waiting 15 minutes for a single coffee. Often times its more, like 20-25 minutes. Like literally every time I patiently wait and it hits me - "hey, I've been waiting a while, wheres my drink?" The food comes out quicker than the coffee usually! I ordered food from a place across the street, walked over to Craft, order a coffee, it took 18 minutes, and then by the time I picked up the food and got back - my food was cold. Crazy work. All the other shops do it fine; Deeply, Stemma, Lineage. Framework etc - their average wait time is like 5-8 minutes once you order. Craft has some serious issue with the efficiency of their barista line. And I am aware craft coffee isn't immediate unless you're getting drip - I'm only ordering an Americano, its one of the easiest beverages to make. I will sometimes even people who ordered after me get something fancy and then get their drink before mine! And to that note, its not the best coffee. Its surely good, its quality; but they're not making the best stuff in town. If there's some extra steps or something going on, its not worth making me wait at minimum 15 minutes for a drink when there's literally no line, 5 people sitting down in the shop and 6 employees. It makes me not want to go to this shop ever, its just so unfortunately convenient to where I work that its THE place to go. So thats why I'm writing this - were in the same space and I want to see them improve their wait times. They've been consistently bad for far too long! EDIT: I forgot I wrote a review in 2023 being more forgiving but still complaining about wait times. Well, clearly that has not been fixed!

I had the Johnny Omelet that was filled with bacon that was actually crispy, some other meats and peppers and onions. It was covered in sausage gravy and came with delicious crispy hash browns. Yum! Service was spectacular with refills of coffee and water flowing like mad into even a 3/4 empty glass. Kudos to the staff here for just killing it!

From the minute you come in the staff is friendly, knowledgeable about their menu and accommodating and in general so sweet. I saw them talking to other tables like they knew them they remember things about them and everyone seemed at home. Well I felt the same after just a bit. You get the feel of true americana diner, lay back, relaxed just good food that puts you back on the road feeling good. I usually get one of two things here: 1. Chicken and waffles. Fair warning it will ruin chicken and waffles for you. After this you might find good but never this good. A giant Belgian waffle, half a fried Chicken, fresh made to order fantastic chicken!!!! I need a picture and might use that as an excuse to go to Metro :D 2. The Fried chicken platter. Same fantastic fried chicken with regular sides, Seasoned fries that are great and their creamy (done right cause you are in the south) Mc- n-Cheese. Wife had the croissant (quason) French toast and hash brown, great sweet savory breakfast. I've had their burgers and offering all satisfying and delicious. Their coffee is good and strong, but I have to admit my wife wished there was a more barista like coffee option as she likes her coffee with more of a dessert vibe. My mom used to love their Meat loaf as well. In summary; can you come here just for the fried chicken? yes you can, but I would say come for breakfast, lunch or brunch for the ambiance the people and... the FRIED CHICKEN!

Staff was also friendly- mostly students. We ordered some Benedict's and pancakes to share. My immediate thoughts were that the price to portion ratio was nice and that the food presentation exceeded my expectations. For a college campus (or adjacent) casual breakfast fare, it was great! The quality of the food itself wasn't necessarily the highest. The brisket Benedict consisted of fatty bits and very thin scraps plus the pancake "syrup" was definitely the knock off corn syrup. However, you can hardly complain at these prices, so I won't! Parking was ample as it is located in a plaza. I'd come back if in the area but wouldn't make a special trip.
