The Veranda Cafe

"Owner of this shop molested my daughter in his shop. Please don't eat here. Do Not EAT HERE Owner IS RUDE and and over thinks things. People are so quick with an attitude in Orlando for some reason. All this could have been avoided if the owner approached me better. I went in today and owner approached me very negatively about my review I posted on here about them but its freedom of speech that he violated when it escalated and he just decided to kick me out and said was going to call the police and owner told me my perception is bad. Would never come here again and he said everything is being recorded but owner approached me not the other way around. I was here yesterday 11/14 and owner approached me very rude and with a whole lot of negativity saying I just want to make sure ordering something to eat or drink. I couldn't even get my laptop setup first before the owner came and bothered me and the when I asked the owner about it he denied the whole thing but I did order a drink. Then today I went back around 635 or so and ordered a bottle water and got my laptop setup and no one told me till last min they were closing at 7:00 but normally they open till 8:00pm on weekdays but they decided at the last min to close early I guess. The lady rushed me out the door struggling to put my laptop away. Very BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE."

"Came here last night for the live jazz jam hosted by local saxophonist Fort Occhino. What a fantastic place for excellent live music, great food, beer & wine. Hostess/server Katie was awesome. After tasting Chef Brandon’s food, it’s no surprise when I found out later he is has years of experience in fine dining establishments and was schooled at The Culinary Institute of America. The jazz music by young, local jazz musicians was amazing. 5 stars. Looking forward to my next visit!"

"I have been here quite a few times. Always great. Extra excited to find out they serve breakfast. Potatoes were air fried with pesto… YUM. Not pictured is the biscuit and fig jam I got instead of toast. All that for $10. 2 eggs, toast, a side, and coffee was only $6 (i got an extra side). I honestly thought my bill was wrong. Friendly service is also an added bonus."

"This place was so so good!! We were looking for another place for brunch and wandered here instead, and the menu sounded so good we stayed. The service was SO nice and knowledgeable, and checked in on us. They made my partner a roast beef sandwhich even though it technically wasnt lunch time, because I made a joke that he doesnt like eggs. The ONLY reason I took a star off is because there were a few gnats flying around us :( I only put this because I know your service was so great that you will work towards making your place a 10 star experience! The food was SO GOOD."

"Craig and Alexis and Chef are great! Great food and coffee downtown! Check this place out. You won’t be disappointed."
