Ehhhhh. So it was ok. It was fine for the breakfast we had but honestly probably won't be back. We checked in and got a coupon but they said they don't do them anymore. The food was not great overall but we did like the pancakes! The server must have been having a bad day and just overall not great, unfortunately. It's been around for a long time though so maybe just went on a bad day! Fully accessible and lots of parking! read more

Overall this place was a good option for a slow Sunday morning. We chose this place because sure we have driven by it 100's of times but it's never been a fitting time to sit and eat so we tried it this past weekend. I liked our extensive their menu was. There were things for everyone whether you want lunch or breakfast. I ordered the Chorizo omelette and it was great. The crispy potatoes were also really great. They have fun kids meals with smiley faces too. The atmosphere was fun as they had tic tac toe outside with old frying pans. You could tell the owner put thought behind a lot of their decorations. My only thing I didn't love was that they offered a free app the "pancake sticks" on Yelp for checking in and he said they don't do those anymore and didn't have anything that replaced it. Overall good experience. read more

Max & Meme Cafe - Dining Room - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Longwood, Florida

We have been here several times for breakfast, and I always leave stuffed. My delicious skillet was so big I made three meals out of my order. There was bacon, ham, sausage, cheese, and scrambled eggs over the tastiest home fries I've ever had. I love how they always include a piece of fruit on the plate as well. My dad's pancake was fluffy and cooked perfectly. I look forward to our next breakfast here. read more

Max & Meme's Cafe is very cozy and welcoming. They have a good variety from which to choose and very delicious The cafe is very bright (lots of big windows) which I love. Every time my husband and I have eaten there, the service was good and the food. They also have plenty of parking. If you want a new breakfast restaurant, treat yourself to Max & Meme's. Oh, their prices are reasonable. read more

Ambiance Small place i think more than 7 people will be uncomfortable to be there. Very chill, no music, i like that they have little creative games for the kids, like tic tac toe in the entrance, chess in the back. Food It was good the pacakes and the waffles were the best out of everything we order, they do add cream cheese to their waffles, my son was no very happy thar they did not mentioning that when he ordered but i was! I thought it was delicious. Prices range from like 7 to 8, so it's not terrible, but there was nothing we orderee that was good enough to make me a regular. Service, The waiter was great, but the service is slow, and they brought one of the meals so much later than the others, so we had one person in the table not eating at the same time. They also miss one order of pancakes...What i appreciate it about the situation was that the waiter and manager communicared well gave us heads up on the delay, apologized, and mentioned there was a confusion in the kitchen before we complained and gave us a discount without having to ask them so that to me is important. read more

I recently moved to Longwood and after finding Max and Meme, I am recommending it to all my friends as a great casual family brunch spot. Hearty portions, fresh and fast cooking, and friendly service all have me coming back for more. I'd recommend the Greek omelette, hash browns, and club sandwich. Their bread is baked fresh and delicious. My wallet loves this place too. They even have $4 mimosas. They were out of some items when I last visited and sadly no longer carry the pancake sticks advertised on their Yelp check in. Otherwise, this is a great casual brunch spot. read more

Great service! Cool find in Longwood, not far from the Hourglass Brewery. I was in the mood for breakfast AND lunch and they had this crispy chicken omelet. That's a first! Really large and delicious! Cute ambiance! #omelet #chicken #breakfast #cuteambiance #orlandoeats #local #orlandobreakfast #yummy read more

extensive menu, looks like great options but the food just isn't great. Service was slow despite not being busy. The food had so much water in it, it wasn't even oily or any kind of flavorful juice, just more like water. My texmex didn't come with avocado and only 1 tortilla. The shrimp and grits was good besides the excess water. The kids $8 pancake was not worth it. Could have gotten an entire meal for that price. One and done! read more

The food is excellent. I've had a number of different dishes since we eat there weekly for our Christian group. The lead server Frank is fantastic and always accommodating. I highly recommend this to everyone read more

New owners and newer interior look. Good selection of breakfast and lunch items. Our meal was cooked as we ordered and you could taste quality ingredients are being used. Service was a little slow though they had plenty of servers. Spotless Will give it a try in a few weeks as there 8s nothing in this part if town that is any good read more

I love me some mom and pop restaurants, sometimes a break from the chain of typical restaurants is needed. A friend of ours recommended this place to meet up since they are regulars here. I was glad that we got here pretty early, because they filled up pretty fast! When you drive by the restaurant, their sign advertises big ASSet of Pancakes and omelets, and mimosas are served all day! So I wanted to see how big these pancakes were, so I took a look at the various options, and decided on the best sounding pancake; the bacon pancake. The order comes with 2 pancakes, and at first I was disappointed because I feared that I'd still be hungry, not knowing how big the pancake actually were, but once the plate was dropped in front of me, I knew I had no need to worry as these pancakes could be split amongst two people! They were cooked well, and the bacon was nice and crispy on the inside! I definitely got my filling for sure! So I'm giving Max and Memes three stars because the service lacked after receiving our food. Our server was nice, however it got the point that our beverages weren't refilled, nor were any empty plates picked up. When a table has every seat filled, that can cause a crowded table. Would I give Max and Meme another visit, absolutely! I would just hope for better service on my next visit. read more

I've been here a few times and finally am getting a chance to get a review up. This is your run of the mill breakfast/brunch/lunch spot with no frills. Waitresses and waiters are friendly and you get what you pay for. I ordered their Carolina Crunchy Chicken Salad and it was good. Salad was fresh and the chicken was actually pretty crunchy AND tasty. Loved the breading. It just wasn't something I'd go back for. My son got the chicken and waffles and I believe the chicken he got was was the same chicken on my salad. The hubby ordered a burger and his bottom bun was so soggy from the burger he has to request a new one. Finally, my youngest got a tuna sandwich and sadly, it didn't have much flavor. We're used to making it with a good amount of mayo and some sweet relish! Oh yes, BTW, the check in offer has not been valid for a couple years. read more

Loved the $3.99 mimosas. That was my fave. The country fried steak was good, but I've had larger portions for cheaper. My other guest did not like the eggs Benedict at all. The tomato on there made the English muffin soggy. When questioned why tomato was on there, the answer was "that's how eggs Benedict is made". Hmmmm. Not a classic one but ok. The mini golf course is cute. read more

All I needed was to see their sign advertising "Big A** Pancakes and Omelettes". I immediately had to try them and get one or both of those things. We walked in and were seated immediately by a young man named Franc who seemed to be all alone taking care of six tables at once. However, he was on top of it all. One quibble we had was that they were out of OJ. Truly no big deal, we can deal with that. I just happened to be craving it this morning. When checking in via Yelp, there's an offer (at least currently) for a free order of pancake sticks. Franc informed us that this item is no longer available, so instead he offered a single pancake. We took him up on the offer. That thing is huge. Took up the full plate and was nice and fluffy and in no way heavy on the stomach. I ordered the "loaded" omelette which was amazing- so much sausage, ham, bacon and cheese inside. Almost more filling than egg. For nicely butter pieces of toast and hash browns. My son got the M&M Club which was a great, triple layered sandwich with thick enough slices of ham and turkey that he could have eaten them as his meal. He mistakenly got the potatoes as his side after ordering fruit - but Franc immediately fixed that.) the potatoes were crisp and tasty and the fruit fresh. All this good for less than $30 was a great deal. Will be back. read more

Max & Meme Cafe - Huge omelette and toast - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Longwood, Florida

Trendy this place is not but it's simple breakfast dishes are comforting and make you feel like a member of the family. The menu stays true to the classics and doesn't stray into anything upscale. It's perfect for lazy Sunday mornings when you just can't summon the energy to whip up a meal. Now, while my Sunday mornings are lazy, Max and Meme's are anything but. This place draws a large Sunday morning crowd! Luckily we were able to be seated and served fairly quickly in spite of the masses. The couple of servers working this morning held it down very well considering how much hustle they had to put forth. I appreciated the fact that our server left a large carafe of hot coffee on our table so we could refresh our cups as needed. After topping off my coffee one or two times, I was presented with the perfect plate of banana stuffed French toast. The bread was crisp and the bananas plentiful! What I loved most was the contrast of the mild cheese filling to the sweetness of strawberry syrup topping. The textures and taste added up to a perfect balance. I can't wait to come back to max and meme's kitchen for some more breakfast classics. I'll definitely go for an omelette or pancake next time BUT next time might have to be on a weekday for me. Hopefully it isn't as crowded. I was happy to wait for a table but not so happy that the tables were crowded so close together. Due to the popularity, max and meme pack em in. LITERALLY. The tables were so close together that I could hear my dining neighbors convos loud and clear. I probably could've asked them to pass the salt and pepper. I wouldn't call this a deal breaker though! Just a reason to avoid peak times. Everything else is spot on down to the prices. If you are breakfasting or brunchin on weekends though, be cool with the closeness. read more

I love pancakes but I am very picky about them. This place has won first place, hands down! I ordered an omelette but I was very curious about the pancake so I ordered 1 to split with my bf. I'm glad I only ordered one because it was HUGE! It was fluffy, but slightly crispy (just how I like it), had a buttery but sweet flavor (just how I like it). I could make the drive for that pancake everyday if I needed to. Service was great, very friendly and fast. The restaurant wasn't fancy but then again who wants to eat pancakes in a fancy setting (not me). It was cute and quaint, simple with adorable details. 100% will return. Next time I'm adding chocolate chips to my pancakes! read more

It's really sad that when you go into a restaurant you can't even get a Pepsi. Who doesn't make sure they have enough inventory to serve customers over the weekend whe they know the distribution won't deliver until Monday. Won't give them my business if they can't provide service. read more

Service experience subpar, unfortunately. First time ever in our dining history did we receive beverages AFTER our food arrived. Went to car to retrieve own water bottle finally. (And hot coffee served instead of the cold that was ordered.) Table seated after us provided water before us. Saw another diner go up to server station in search of syrup, so servers clearly didn't have things under control. Food good, but not enough to overcome disappointing service & rate a return visit. read more

Saw some pretty pictures online of waffles topped with strawberries and cream and decided to give this place a try. Sadly, this was a mistake. In addition to the facility appearing run down, I was even more discouraged when I sat down at our booth which had torn seating. Our waitress, Karen, was very hospitable and was frankly the only pleasant part of the experience. Many people like to say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I at least believe that it is a very important meal because it is the first sustenance you intake to begin the day's work. So it should be nourishing and delicious. The food here could better be described as Bland and forgettable. My girlfriend had Joseph's Frittata with sliced tomatoes, and I had the Cajun omelette with sliced tomatoes. We Both had sides of bacon. Also, I ordered a black coffee ( which of the waitress had double brewed and was proud of the fact that she had made "strong" coffee, when in fact it tasted bitter and almost like old grinds were used. I even had to ask if it was fresh coffee.). Now, I'm not a customer who is unfamiliar with good food. I'm a former Club Level trainer for Ritz Carlton Hotels, having managed F&B presentations for years. I'm also a former culinary student and foodie who has traveled and eaten in over 30 countries around the world. I know what to expect out of (even) a casual diner breakfast. This restaurant charges approximately the same prices for an omelet as IHOP or Keke's Breakfast Cafe, but delivers a much lower quality product. The omelets were both blandly seasoned, overcooked, and the chorizo somehow congregated to only one half of my girlfriend's omelette. My sliced tomatoes were nicely salted, hers were not seasoned at all. The bacon was incredibly low quality and tasteless. And the green peppers in my omelette had not been sauteed or roasted just soft and them before dumping them in with the eggs in the pan. Sadly, I will not be visiting again, as this was a terrible expenditure of $34. read more

My husband and I stumbled across this restaurant a few months ago. Since then we've been a handful of times and love the staff and food. Jackie, our waitress is so lovely.

After driving by this restaurant for a year, I thought I'd surprise my boyfriend and treat him to breakfast. He goes on and on about trying this place, so we stop in on a Sunday morning to check it out. Upon entering you aren't greeted, and there are no signs indicating what you are supposed to do, so we just grabbed an available table. As soon as put butts touched the seat, a waitress came over and asked if we would like any drinks. She was dressed as I think a vampire? It was 2 days before Halloween, so it made since. We both ordered coffee, and it arrived within a few minutes. We perused the menu for a bit, and opted to both order the same thing: omelettes with ham, bacon, and sausage, toast, home fries and I ordered a side of fruit. The food was good, but my omelette was way too salty. I ate less than half. The decaf coffee was great, and the service was pretty okay. The few things I'll call out: we sat at a table that had no utensils, and was super rickety. We had to ask for silverware after the waitress dropped off our food, there was no water offered and we had to flag someone down to get refills on our coffee. A plus is that they will give you coffee to do, and only fill it halfway so it doesn't spill in your car. Our meal came to about $18 which was a steal based on the ton of food you get, will definitely visit again, it felt like I was eating at a friend's house where their grandma was serving you. It was no frills, and nothing bothered me enough to fuss about it. read more

Extremely slow service, it took 5 minutes for anyone to acknowledge our party of 7 standing at the front door and then they set up a table for us but didn't seat us we just had to assume it was okay to sit. Then it took 20 minutes to even get water and we had to walk up and ask for a server to talk to us, they're standing right in front of our table just not doing anything. We came in for a fast meal because it's a diner with easy to cook food and there were a total of 5 tables in the restaurant including ours but it took an hour and 10 minutes to get our food. The food is decent it's a diner, it's greasy and unhealthy but that's what we came here for. Also throughout the entire hour and 20 minutes sitting there the manager did a table touch at the very end and it wasn't a "sorry I noticed your food took a long time" it was just "hey I'm the manager how is everything." I have been a server for 9 years and I love going out to eat as much as I can and I mean it when I say this was the worst service I've ever received. I came here a handful of times before but never again. read more

Just don't. Should have known when it wasn't busy on a Sunday at 11am. But I digress. Food was VERY bland. Low quality ingredients. Menu was not accurate to the dish served. Service was average until I asked why apple juice was watery, potatoes were mush and dishes were incomplete. Then the server never returned and another employee brought us the bill "with a discount." Just don't. read more

So i was looking for a food truck that said it parked near Max & Meme and had to find where that was and took a look at the menu, then of course i had to try it because it looked amazing. Got a really tasty breakfast sandwich yesterday to go and i loved it! I'm normally more for a biscuit/bagel for a breakfast sandwich but this was awesome! It was ready quickly as well which was a huge plus! Very at home, traditional diner feel and worth a visit for sure read more

This place seemed like one of those locations where they know everyone and people have been going there for a while. I came across it as I had to deliver something and thought that looks like a cute place for some breakfast. The server commented on my shirt and seemed to make small talk with everyone by saying nice things. Really made you feel good. I ordered bacon, eggs, and potato. Server asked me what kind of potato I wanted. I said to surprise me and she asked questions to get to the best one. I would have been happy with any of the styles. The eggs were cooked a little bit heavy, but the yolk was still had a little runny so it was close. I had ordered over medium. There is also a little mini golf place outside for some extra enjoyment. read more

This is a neighborhood breakfast cozy place that many people don't know about and it's a shame -- or maybe they wanted this way --?? Uuhhmm but we love it and my kid loves it and we used to play mini golf now we play chest out in the backyard while we wait or after. The service is EXCELLENT every time we go and the food is just fresh and delicious. Fresh food it takes a while to prepare but we wait just long enough and take long enough too. read more

Mixed results here. My wife and I have eaten breakfast here three times in the past few weeks. She gets the 2-2-2 with French toast and bacon every time and says it is very good. I had an omelet once which was okay. The second time I had pancakes which is one of their signature dishes ("big-ass pancakes"). They were indeed big but not good. The texture was awful. We ate here again today with my daughter and she had the pancakes. After about two bites she said that they were so bad she couldn't eat them. Server never asked if there was a problem. My country fried steak was very bland. Also, they serve margarine instead of butter (a pet peeve). I see other reviews that say that the pancakes are good, so maybe I just got a bad batch (on two occasions?) read more

One star because the host said 20 minutes which it was. Zero stars for server. After she gave us our order. Never checked to see how things were of asked is we wanted refills on drinks.

Hmm I think it's a little late, see that mine & my daughter drink was empty and never even bothered to ask if you wanted a refill. Won't be back. read more

We pass by this place often decided to stop by and try it out. I ordered the 222 breakfast, 2 eggs, two sausages, and 2 large pancakes ( 10-12 inches) all was great, pancakes have a great fresh home made taste, good atmosphere, very clean, very friendly read more

The positives first: Friendly greeting at the door; impressive breakfast menu; good decaf coffee; tea box variety presented at table is a nice touch. Negatives: My husband ordered the "crispy" coconut/ brown sugar pancakes with strawberries. The pancakes are almost as big as the plate, but size doesn't always matter. The waiter described this pancake as "covered in brown sugar, caramelizing as it cooks". There was no "crispy" or coconut to be found and 5 little strawberry pieces in the top pancake and absolutely no strawberries in the bottom pancake. When my husband asked if he had the right order, the waiter said, it's probably because we're very busy. He had ordered tea, and the hot water came right away, but no tea with it. The waiter said he would come back with a tea box and it came about 15 mins later, after we reminded him. I ordered crispy bacon which came quite soggy and never got a coffee refill until we were finished with our meals. In a restaurant that is basically open for breakfast, with a few lunch items, there should be someone making coffee rounds, or a coffee pot on the table. Maybe service would have been better on a weekday, but it was not jam packed. Service should be a priority. read more

Max & Meme Cafe - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Longwood, Florida

This place was definitely below average. We stood there for several minutes before even being greeted. They had plenty of staff that passed us and very few guests seated. When they finally acknowledged us they took a few more moments before seating us. Then as she walked us to the table she actually grabbed a menu from my boyfriends hand because it wasn't the right menu for the weekend. It was a bit rude but we ignored her behavior. Once seated she took our drink order and returned with them a few moments later. My boyfriend looked up and after thanking her for the beverages he asked for just a few more minutes to look over the menu. She turned, walked away, and glanced back to laugh and tell us that she wasn't our server (very aggressively). Again, rude and a bit awkward. When our waitress came over we were pleased with how pleasant she was. She was just about the only thing that kept us from leaving. Finally we ordered and decided to try several breakfast items and a sandwich from the lunch menu. The waffle was awesome, probably one of the best we've ever had. The batter was absolutely delicious. The breakfast sandwich was good but not great. The M&M club was incredibly bland. The fries were not cooked and the hash browns looked like they had been on the grill for only a few seconds. The grits were grainy and definitely undercooked. The meat lovers scramble was ok but there was gravy underneath everything (accident or intentional, I'm not sure) and it was tasteless. Everything was lacking seasoning. Overall we were incredibly unimpressed and will not be back again. read more
