After church our friends suggested we stop in for brunch here today and I'm so glad they did! My husband had the strawberry shortcake french toast. I don't normally take pictures of food, but I was moved to! It was a work of art. He didn't even let me try a bite! I might have lost a finger! I was craving a blt, so I had the grilled chicken sandwich. The guacamole is sooo good! The sandwich was huge. I brought home 1/2 for dinner. We'll definitely add this spot to the rotation! read more

Vanessa's Coffee Shop - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I was in Orlando on business and had Vanessa's on my list to try. I stopped in for much-needed coffee and left very impressed. I ordered a cappuccino, orange juice, and a bagel sandwich with egg, sausage, and Swiss cheese. Everything was excellent. The cappuccino was bold and flavorful -- it really woke me up. The bagel was soft and fresh, and the sandwich was warm, tasty, and satisfying. The OJ was a nice touch for extra energy. The owner, Jessica, is from Puerto Rico (Boricua like me!), which made the visit even more special. You order and pay at the counter, then enjoy the beautiful dining area. It's welcoming with comfortable seating and a sophisticated white-on-black décor featuring inspiring messages about life and God's providence. It's a lovely spot with great food and a warm atmosphere. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Orlando read more

This review is only regarding the coffee. The aesthetic: farm/barn vibes. There's plenty of tables, some accommodating up to six guests. The service was good; we were greeted immediately as we entered and everyone was so nice. We got the white chocolate strawberry and white chocolate lavender and white mocha latte. The white mocha did not have any coffee flavor and left a sugary aftertaste. The white chocolate strawberry had a light strawberry flavor which I appreciated but the coffee was very light and watered down. The only that was decent was the white chocolate lavender. Def recommend using a dark roast bean to enhance the coffee flavor Another downside is that despite the how large the place is, there is only 1 bathroom for men and women with 1 stall. read more

Stopped by here to meet some friends on Mother's Day actually. Wait wasn't too bad and it wasn't too busy but it was around 12:30ish. Staff were super friendly and the food was good. I liked their iced coffees and the flavors. Overall a cute place that I would be willing to go to again and recommend to friends and family. read more

This coffee shop was very cute, charming, and had an overall brightness to it. There was plenty of seating and had a set up that makes it easy to seat a party of 2 or a party of 20! The presentation of the pancakes was pretty amazing! However, the presentation of my omelette was underwhelming even though the food was flavorful. With plenty of photo ops, this place is a must to go with family and/or friends! The only thing that I noticed that could be better was that there was only one single bathroom in the place. I saw the line backed up multiple times while we were there. read more

Everything I said in my first review of this restaurant was true at the time. However, we recently made a return trip this past weekend, and I was so disappointed in the food and the 8% service charge. Keep in mind there was no service, we ordered from our phone with a scanned menu on the table and once the food is ready we were then called on the intercom to pick up the food. This is completely separate from the tip. Unfortunately, the same guava cheese french toast was terrible, the whipped cream has changed and the syrup came in an olive oil bottle, trying getting any syrup from the little tiny hole. We also had a breakfast sandwich on a croissant, which was very stale. I cannot speak to the staff as the only interaction we had was when we picked up our food from the counter. I think it you just want to relax and have a cup of coffee, it's great, otherwise not a good place for breakfast in my opinion. read more

What a beautiful coffee shop! I love it here. It's perfect for a to go order or a nice sit down brunch or lunch if desired. Food is decadent and portions are very large ! The only miss is when you place your order you have to get up to get it , it's not brought to the table which for me today would've been nice since I had my little one with me. We enjoyed our cinnamon roll lattes and brunch . And of course will be back . read more

Vanessa's Coffee Shop has been on my list for months. We finally made it. It is cute place. Aesthetic you would say, that serve great food and delicious coffee. We ordered Sunrise Tacos, 3 tacos with your choice of meat, scrambled eggs, pico de gallo, queso fresco, mayo-cilantro, avocado & sour cream. Also the Happy Morning, an omelette with your choice of meat and cheese, with a sunny side egg on top (love the double egg situation) served with a slice of french toast, topped with whipped cream, fruits powered sugar and small jar of nutella. For drinks, hot mocha latte and an iced latte. Everything was delicious. The service on point. The price was a little higher than I expected but for this, it was worth it. read more

Love meeting friends here for coffee or tea. All the menu items are instagram worthy. Service is typically prompt.

This place is a hidden gem I'm very glad I found. The moment you walk in , it has this cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you want to stay a while. The staff is very friendly and genuinely seem to care about helping you get what you want. I tried their Cafe coquito cold foam iced latte and it was delicious, rich, smooth and not too sweet.i also had the triplets sandwich,pretty good but I felt it could have had more meat. My wife had the Mallorca sandwich which she loved. We were with a friend that ended up trying the French toast, also great. Whether your looking for a quick bite or to go sip some good coffee and relax,this is the spot! read more

Come back to try their breakfast and it did not disappoint. It was busy but they do work fast. Staff is really friendly and attentive. Tried the Mallorca sandwich with egg and bacon and it was the perfect combination of sweet and salty. My husband tried the tripleta sandwich and that one wasn't as good and it lacked the meats. Of course also ordered some coffee and tried the Cafe Coquito and it was good and wasn't too sweet. Really enjoyed their food and will be back to try some other menu items. read more

Really wanted to like it here. We were staying in lake Nona and we're looking up breakfast spots and it had overwhelmingly great reviews, but I thought everything fell short. I just was not impressed. I opted for the breakfast sandwich and it was very very mediocre. I will say the portion was very Hardy and I think it was worth the money, but I just was very unimpressed. read more

We stopped in due to high marks on Yelp. Unfortunately this place just didn't do it on any level for us. The coffee was unremarkable and the cuban was mediocre at best. Their service was mid as well. We also had the croissant with sausage and egg but alas, it was mediocre as well. We just didn't care for anything about the experience. I give it 2 stars personally. read more

This was my first time here and will probably be my last time at this coffee shop in Lake Nona. When I walked in, I wasn't greeted although there were employees and no clients were waiting at the counter. When looking at the physical menus they had there were no prices to accompany the items. Moreover, I realized that they had a kiosk on top of the counter for you to order. Only when I started using the kiosk and was paying did someone approached and asked if I needed help. The space itself is super big and had lots of tables and seating options for solo and groups. This is perfect as they brand themselves as a Christian coffee shop, so if you have small group/Bible studies meet-up, this would be your place. The latte I ordered was a big disappointment. It tasted super burnt and I don't think they even offer mugs if you want to sit there and enjoy it. read more

The ambiance and aesthetics in the coffee shop is amazing. I love the vibe and the decor. I was able to take a seat on one of the couches and have a comfortable brunch with some nice conversation. The only issue is the Mallorca was missing the egg which we let one of the servers know and they served an egg on the side. I wish they would have remade the entire sandwhich instead of giving a one off egg. Everything else was really good and I can't wait to come back to try more items. read more

Huuuuuuge portions. Be prepared to FEAST. An abundance in blessings, indeed... Stopped by with my partner and his family on our way to Orlando for lunch. Relatively calm on a Sunday afternoon-- we were able to find seating for the 5 of us easily. Our orders took 20~ minutes to come out. While I only ordered a Matcha Tea Latte, I stole some bites from my partner's Humpty Dumpty Burger. HUUUUUUGE PORTIONS OMG. We were shocked at the size upon picking up from the counter. And quality to match the quantity-- it was delicious & fresh! MATCHA TEA LATTE: Oh... This doesn't taste like matcha much at all LOL. It's like a white chocolate milk beverage with the word "matcha" whispered into it. Very sweet... My partner's White Chocolate Lavender Latte was also extremely sweet. I probably wouldn't recommend the coffee, but the comfort food is great! read more

What can I say! Vanessa's Coffee shop, it's a Puerto Rican Delight. I highly recommend to come check out one of the three (3) locations.

I will definitely come back to have some yummy food!!! read more

I'm just a little bit obsessed with this place. I got the lavender white chocolate iced coffee - AMAZING! And the happy morning breakfast. An omelette WITH A FRIED EGG ON TOP? Yes, please. Also, it came with French toast decorated with beautiful fruit and freshly made whipped cream. The ambience was super nice - clean and spacious. Loved the scripture on the walls. I would definitely come here often if I lived closer. Service was excellent. Prompt. Everything was super clean. I look forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. read more

My friend and I had a delightful visit early this morning after picking her up from the airport. She ordered an Iced Chocolate coconut latte and had a hot cinnamon latte. For breakfast we both ordered the Sunny Side Combo which consisted of scrambled eggs with bacon, French toast with fresh fruit and Nutella. Served hot and delicious. The fruit was so fresh and the whipped topping was like heaven. The coffee was so good and flavorful. Really nice atmosphere and the sweetest staff. Beautifully decorated. Would love to go back when I have the chance. So close to the airport if you have some time to kill and are looking for a great local coffee spot. read more

We arrived around 6 PM and the place was practically empty, with only two customers having coffee. We purchased our drinks and sat down as a family. My child was quietly sitting in his stroller watching cartoons on a phone at a low volume. Even so, a relative of the owner (not a customer) approached us and asked us to turn the volume down because there were "customers" who were bothered by it. This was despite the fact that no actual customer complained directly, and the only other two people in the shop were having conversations at a similar or even louder volume than the child's device. We still complied and lowered the volume without any issue. The cashier who served us was very kind and polite throughout the transaction, which was one of the few positive parts of the experience. Another very concerning issue was the presence of a large number of flies inside the shop, especially around the pastry display. It was obvious and constant. My husband respectfully informed an employee about it, explaining that it could become a serious health concern if an inspection were to happen, and suggested they address the issue. The employee responded politely and took action. However, what was extremely concerning is that afterward, the owner's relative served cinnamon rolls to other customers that had been exposed to flies landing on them, which we found completely unacceptable from a food safety and hygiene standpoint. It is also important to mention that the owner was present during our visit. However, she did not acknowledge us at any point, not even a basic greeting such as "good afternoon," even though she walked directly past our table. That lack of basic courtesy was noticeable. Additionally, the overall cleanliness of the establishment was very disappointing. The floors were dirty, and the restroom was in truly unacceptable condition, appearing unsanitary and poorly maintained. In general, while the cashier was kind and professional, other interactions came directly from the owner and a male family member, who were the ones showing an unfriendly and unwelcoming attitude throughout the visit. The atmosphere of the coffee shop also strongly contrasts with its spiritual décor and religious messages displayed throughout the space, which makes the overall experience feel even more inconsistent with the values it appears to promote. Overall, it was an uncomfortable, unsanitary, and disappointing experience that did not make us feel welcome as a family. read more

Christian coffee shop- Beautiful business with an emphasis on faith. I would come in with a small group or on my own to spend some time on a devotional, etc. Coffee is good. I tend to add a extra shot of espresso. I think the drinks can be sweet/take away from the taste of the coffee itself. Their food is great. Lots of variety. Good portions. Pancakes and French toast can also be pretty sweet and adorned with whipped cream, powered sugar, etc. Things that I would personally do without and opt for healthier options. Service is always friendly and inviting. You order up front and receive your food when it's ready/they call out your name to the counter. read more

Large portions, decadent pancakes, just ok coffee. The cafe does not offer in-house made syrups. Customer service was impersonal. Visually pleasing "happy morning" meal. All in was just short of $30 for a breakfast meal + iced coffee. There was a service charge, not mentioned at the front when ordering. Nice calm place to hang out at especially if you have work/ studying to do & want a variety of menu options. read more

Are you looking for a spot near the airport to kill some time? Well, this is your place! I came with some family before their flight. We wanted a light meal but instead were served a fantastic meal that blew us away. I ordered the turkey and cheese Mallorca which was delicious. It's a basic sandwich the powdered sugar was not evident in the taste at all so don't fret. On the menu is it called Mallorca (which is the bread for those not familiar). The grilled chicken sandwich however was OUT of this world delicious. Definitely share worthy or if you are hungry enough just for you. Lastly the classic French toast with eggs...oh my god that is another incredibly menu item to choose. The service was okay. No one was rude but the servers don't want to help you on the register as they are insistent on you ordering on the kiosk even if it gets busy. It was dead when we came in but noticing others as I waited for my food, the register never was used during the two hours I was there. The restaurant is a cozy but modern. There's many opportunities for a photoshoot both inside and outside of this restaurant. They have Bible verses written as wall decor in some areas and also a map of the coffee belt, which as a former barista, I thought that map was cool. Definitely a great place to kill time before the airport or a nice spot or do some remote work/homework. If this has been on your radar or you wanted a new coffee shop to try, this is it! read more

I had the New Year's pancakes with no chocolate drizzle, a croissant bacon sandwich, and a latte with caramel and an extra shot. The Croissant sandwich was cold. I Would've liked to have it warmer and fresh. The Latte was strong and delicious and super cute with the heart shape. Pancakes were OK. Cute decor. Staff was very friendly. You order upfront when you walk in. Or you can order from the table if you scan your QR code . read more

Love this place, but there's a bunch of remote workers or college students that take up all the tables. It's been consistent each visit that we've had no where to sit because of those people with things scattered across 4 top tables when there are couches available for them to work on. Other than inconsiderate people, this place is awesome. 5 stars if they had more seating arrangements. read more

A Big - WARNING & Caution right off the bat to all going to Vanessa's Coffee Shop. They have junk fees and hidden charges on the bill. First the good - the place is cute. They have a neat phone booth at the entrance where you can take a picture. Next the bad - the food and drink are not quality. Especially for the price, you can get better at most other places. Finally the ugly - They tag on 10% to your bill. A fee of 3.5% which they call a Surcharge, when asked they said it was for using a credit card. So beware if you don't pay cash it'll cost you. Next is a 6.50% fee called a Service Charge, no one could explain exactly what it's for but according to all the employees it's just a "required fee". read more

This breakfast was next level indulgent. Fluffy scrambled eggs smothered in melted cheese, golden French toast topped with fresh berries + whipped cream, juicy sausage patties, and a cute little jar of Nutella on the side (yes, please). And don't even get me started on the thick, dreamy French toast dripping in whipped cream and strawberry drizzle--dessert for breakfast done right. Iced coffee and a mango smoothie to seal the deal 10/10 would roll out of bed for this again. NOBODY can't do great coffees like Florida !! They don't really serve you as you get your food when you are called upon and discard of your own stuff! But besides that the place is cute, clean and would go again! read more

I went to Vanessa's coffee shop for a friends birthday and it was delicious! I got a coquito iced coffee and a Mallorca! The coquito cold foam was amazing and super unique, it was the perfect addition to the coffee. I also got a bacon, egg, and cheese Mallorca which was the perfect mix of sweet and salty, and the powdered sugar reminded me of being back in Puerto Rico. We went to the Lake Nona location and found parking relatively quick. There was a cute photo op outside but it was raining so we didn't get any pics. My friend got the Morning omelette which had bacon and egg and was served with French toast which was also super yummy and filling. We had gotten there relatively early so there were plenty of seats and ordered through the QR code at the table. I liked that you didn't have to order at the register. It is a small business so our food did take a little bit to come out but it was worth it and delicious! And of course it was named after me so I'm biased lol! read more

Such a good burger! I'm not a fan of having to order online while I'm sitting on the restaurant, but it's fine. I highly recommend the Humpty Burger. I'm not a big fan of breakfast food, so I'm glad this was an option. The burger was perfectly cooked, and they cooked the egg exactly as I asked for. The potatoes weren't much to write home about, so I'll get something else in their place next time. read more

I was SUPER excited to try Vanessa's. My sister got the banana nut latte, my husband a latte with caramel, and I got the coconut latte. Mine was definitely the best, the banana nut was okay, and my husband's was made incorrectly with what seemed like coconut syrup. The drinks were definitely good! Far from the best coffee I've had. We got the Cuban sandwich, avocado toast, and avocado brunch. The coffee was cheap but I did feel the food was overpriced, though it was definitely good! The workers were very nice and I loved the ambience and values of the coffee shop! read more

My husband and I stopped in for brunch today. It was our first time and I truly appreciate the patience from the woman behind the counter. We tried the pancakes supreme, avocado toast and a bagel sandwich. I had a white mocha and hazelnut hot coffee and my husband had a cappuccino. My coffee was awesome and we LOVED the pancakes. You can see they are quite easy to share. I wish I saw the seasonal cinnamon roll pancakes to try! The strawberry pancakes also look amazing! I enjoyed seeing the instagramable coffees come out the window. Parking can be competitive but worth it! read more

I've ordered the coconut matcha and it was very bad. Absolutely no taste of matcha and the coconut flavor just tasted like sunscreen. Really bad. I ordered a regular iced latte with some chocolate syrup and again, bad!! I ordered it with whole milk but it tasted watery and not creamy at all! And there was a weird taste/aftertaste of coconut water?? very strange. Okay, the only other thing I've ordered was a side of french toast, and it was actually phenomenal! Really yummy and with a side of whipped cream. So to sum it up: the drinks have been a miss for me, but the french toast was really good. Maybe the drinks are bad but the food is good?? Which is weird considering it's supposed to be a coffee shop. Inside is nice but every time I've gone the music has been too loud which makes it hard to focus if you're studying and hard to listen and talk if you're with a friend. read more

I've heard great things about Vanessa's in St Cloud so we had to try the Lake Nona location. It was great! Services was quick, food was yummy, and it's not super loud inside even if it's busy.
