It's perfect for a delicious, quick lunch in a spacious environment with good parking (even in the MetroWest area).   I had the Mallorca Sandwich ($12), which comes with ham, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayo. I was asked "do you want it with powdered sugar on top?" and was like "Why are you even asking me this question right now? OF COURSE I want powdered sugar." This sandwich is delicious, and eating a sandwich with such a sweet bread is not something I would have considered asking for on my own, but it was great.   I also tried one of each type of their empanadas (about $2-3 each): beef, chicken, cheese, and Hawaiian (ham, cheese, and pineapple). All were delicious and very filling for the money.   If you're eating in the MetroWest area, it can be very hard to find parking in the surrounding plazas, and even harder to feel comfortable once you're inside wherever you chose to eat because of how crowded they are (the Brazilian food mart and Pie-fection in the plaza next door with Chase and Tropical Smoothie feel very claustrophobic during lunch), but Mecato's is between McDonald's and Chipotle and had decent parking, even at lunch time. Inside, there was plenty of seating that felt spacious and comfortable.   This is a good spot for a quick lunch in the Valencia College area, and I'll definitely be back!

Coming back to Achilles Art Café feels a little nostalgic for me--I've been visiting this coffee…read moreshop since my early college days back in 2012, when my classmates and I would meet at their original location to study, hang out, and survive exam season together. So seeing how the café has grown into this beautiful, larger MetroWest space honestly makes me smile. The upgrade in size and style is amazing, yet the quality and heart of the place remain exactly the same. The new space is spacious, cozy, and filled with character--from the whimsical European vibes to the eclectic artwork lining the walls. I love the mix of comfortable lounge chairs, soft sofas, and quiet corners, especially in the morning when the atmosphere is calm and relaxing. The staff has always been friendly throughout the years, and that hasn't changed either. Parking is super easy with plenty of space, and the location is convenient whether I'm stopping by before work or meeting a friend. As for the drinks, Achilles continues to deliver: Cortadito - still my go-to favorite, bold and smooth Crème Brûlée Chai Latte - warm and comforting Vanilla Latte - tasty but a touch sweet Banana Bread Latte - subtle and unique Caramel Macchiato - perfect for chilly mornings It's truly wonderful to see a local Orlando café evolve while keeping its soul. Achilles Art Café will always be one of those places that feels like home--old memories, new vibes, same great coffee.

I found this place on Yelp looking for some French food since I was too full on this trip to go to the French pavilion in Epcot and I was craving French brunch. This place was great. I got the lunch combination with a choice of soup or salad (I opted for soup du jour, which was a tomato soup) and the Croque madame. I paired my meal with the seasonal selection of matcha, the blueberry Matcha. Service was pretty quick and the food and drink were amazing. Croque Madame was cheesy and delicious with a yummy runny egg. The matcha was sweet and had the blueberry flavor from the whipped cream. The tomato soup was savory, creamy, and with tomato flavor and came with two slices of baguettes, which were great to dip up the soup. If I'm ever back in Orlando I would 100% make a stop by here again.

I've noticed the coffee quality can be hit or miss at different Foxtails, but this one gets it right The cappuccino is excellent, rich espresso, smooth flavor, and the foam is exactly how it should be: creamy and just the right density. There's plenty of shaded seating outside, and it's perfect to sit out there with a coffee (and your dog, too). We hung out for a while and it was just an easy, relaxing vibe. Definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for good cappuccino and a comfortable place to drink it. I also need to mention that there's plenty of parking since it's in a strip mall next to Publix.

CFS Coffee has an all day breakfast menu so it was an easy choice to drop in. When we got there, it was between breakfast and lunch so it wasn't too busy. Upon entering we found a menu and a table until we decided what we wanted to order. After we decided, we went to the counter and placed our order. We then returned to the table and sat to wait. My coffee came first and was presented in a beautiful blue cup and saucer. The Dirty Chai Latte is made of chai latte and espresso. It was delicious. My only complaint is that I wanted more. The serving size was definitely not enough and actually is inadequate especially for the price. Next came the food. We each had the Prime Steak and Eggs and shared the Power Protein Pancakes. The food was ok. We couldn't eat all and took the rest to go. The staff was ok. The restaurant was clean. They have an affirmation wall that I loved. My Mom did purchase a Bourbon Bread Pudding on the way out. I did have a sample of it later on in the day and it was delicious.

We thought of the Holy Grain Coffee on Conroy but found out there is one in Metro West! So we decided to go to that one instead. As we searched for parking, which is the major downside to this location, we found the building and a spot about 1 block away. Now the parking issue makes sense as I believe this location is meant for the apartment and business residents around. But aside from that this quante coffee shop was very nice with board games on each table, great service and cheap prices! The quality of the coffee is very good as well and in my opinion I prefer it over Starbucks. I do recommend trying it out, but maybe the other location for better parking.
