Peach Valley Café

My husband and I like to come here for breakfast. Of course the apple fritters are awesome but everything else is average. The free wifi is great, and the outdoor patio allows dogs, making this place pretty versatile.

I always enjoy my visits to Peach Valley Café. The environment is clean and pleasant, the servers are all very nice, and the food is consistently good. I’d definitely recommend a visit to anyone in search of breakfast food in SoDo (south downtown Orlando).
A few tips for visitors–
1) The line can be long (especially on weekends) but they move fairly efficiently. Pro tip: they do not take reservations, but you can put yourself at the top of the list for priority seating by calling ahead.
2) Order the apple fritters. They are served with strawberry yogurt and they should not be missed.
3) Their chicken and waffles are fantastic — it comes with delicious blueberry butter and Cajun syrup that have a really uniquely awesome flavor.

My GF and I came here for a mid-​week brunch, and were met with tasty food, decent service, and no wait.
Peach Valley Café was nice and clean and were able to seat us immediately upon our arrival. During a weekend, I’d be curious to see how they keep up with demand, as the place was shockingly full for us.
I got the Chicken & Waffles, which came with a somewhat flavorful blueberry infused butter. The butter was a great concept, but perhaps didn’t stand out enough amongst the overpowering waffle and chicken.
Service was good, although it did feel like the food took a while to come out after ordering — certainly not to the point of annoyance.
The place sort of reminds me of first watch, another broken egg, and those sorts of casual non-​fufu brunch places. Didn’t really stand out compared to them though.

This review is based on a visit on Saturday, May 21, at 9:30 am. My wife and i were on our way back to our house and decided to stop for breakfast. We were between Keke’s and Peach Valley… we chose Peach Valley for convenience. BIG MISTAKE. While we were seated promptly by a friendly host, things took a turn after that. Our server was initially friendly and asked what we would like to drink… two waters, no lemon. Now, I understand that she probably thought to herself, «Great, two waters, what cheapskates.», but that is no excuse for not trying to provide any sort of service to us. We get our two waters (with lemon, mind you) and then order our breakfasts. My wife ordered the smoked salmon bagel thingy, and a side of breakfast potatoes, while i opted for a breakfast sandwich. This is where things take an even worse turn.
A food runner stops by about 10 minutes later and swiftly drops the plates off. She didn’t waste time with pleasantries or ask if everything looked ok. She literally just put the food on the table and sped off. We received the smoked salmon bagel and my breakfast sandwich, no side of potatoes. I thought to myself, «self, just ask the server when she comes back». OUR SERVER DID NOT COME BACK UNTIL WE WERE BOTH DONE WITH OUR FOOD. When she did return, she asked if we were all done, of course we were. She brought over the check and proceeded to dance behind the counter with another server, smile and laugh with other guests, chit chat with servers by a computer. She finally brought us our check and walked away. I went up to the front desk to ask if we pay at the table or the front, and she let me know that she would find our server to run the check. Great. This is where it gets comical. The hostess returns to the table with the check and says «Sorry about that, your server is having a rough morning». ummmmm… what? You mean the same server that was dancing behind the counter and laughing it up with guests and other servers?
Needless to say we will never ever come back to Peach Valley Café. I don’t recall our servers name, but if you ever get sat with the taller blonde women, late 40’s early 50’s with a tattoo on her hand, ask for another server… or just never go there, go to Keke’s instead.
The food was just ok, by the way.

Stopped in Orlando because of a business trip.
Found this place on Unilocal.Free wi-​fi.
Recommend: Check it out if you’re in the area. & Waffles.
Pros:
Good size menu, diner style.
I ordered the waffle with strawberry toppings and a side of fruit. Delicious.
Very fairly priced. I ordered tea as well. came out to about $ 12.
I like their outdoor patio area which allows dogs. Dog friendly.
Cons: I ordered tea, and they never refilled the water…

Food was phenomenal (shrimp and grits) but it took close to one hour to get our good. The server was nice but didn’t apologize for the wait. I was in the service industry for over 5 years and I would have offered bread or something to snack on. I don’t know if I’ll go back but I will get the shrimp and grits, to-​go, again.

Love this place for breakfast. Lots of options so everyone is happy. The fritters are fabulous. My son loves their pancakes and there are plenty of healthy choices. Also love the call ahead for take out!

I like this place and right now it’s my favorite breakfast near my house. I have an allergy to eggs to I’m limited in my breakfast options most places but at peach valley I have plenty. First off they serve the apple fritters with strawberry yogurt which are always a hit with the kids. I usually pick between my FaceTime biscuits and gravy in town or chicken and waffles. Both are awesome but I really enjoy the blueberry butter and spicy syrup that come with the chicken and waffles. It’s a well-​conceived dish with a great balance of flavored. Service is generally good but I have had some bad ones on occasion. Dawn the GM and remembers my kids by name which is impressive. Great place.

Came in for brunch today. The hostess seated us, gave us menus, and left. Then we waited. Mostly empty restaurant, several servers passed by us many times, clearing tables and socializing with customers; other servers seated and socializing with the hostess. No one acknowledged our presence after we were seated. No drink orders, no «with you in a second,» not even eye contact. So after ten minutes of this, we left.

Came for an early lunch – ordered their health breakfast skillet with egg whites 8.99. Very small portion, potatoes and sausage were over cooked and dry. My friend had a club sandwich which she said was ok. The namesake’s peach pepper sauce saved the day, we took home a bottle, not enough to come back, over priced food is nothing to come back for. Our waitress was nice.

The apple fritters were a delicious treat! I would definitely eat the vegetable croissant and grits again. My son said the waffles were fluffy and the chicken was friend golden and crispy. My husband said the biscuits and gravy tasted like they were made from scratch. Tanda provided the most friendly, prompt and helpful service. We truly enjoyed our easter brunch.

Came here for breakfast with friends. They have been raving about it for awhile and I know why!
Nested right outside the heart of downtown in SoDo. Tricky to find but its in the Publix plaza.
While the chicken & waffles looked amazing I decided to go with Philly Steak & Egg Croissant Benedict and my BF went with the pancakes. Best of both worlds!
I love eggs Benedict but the spin with a Philly is genius! Flaky croissant, Philly beef grilled with mushrooms, peppers & red onions, poached eggs & fresh hollandaise sauce. Served with crisp breakfast potatoes oh my!
My friend had the side of grits and said they were amazing!
Wish I saved room for dessert! The pie looked delicious!

I was always curious about Peach Valley Café… I love peaches so I figured hey, let’s give this place a shot. As a rookie I figured what better to start with than something with peaches… So I went for the Stuffed French Toast with Strawberry Cream and Peaches.
Mhmm, right??? So, I thought… The presentation and service was good but the French Toast was stale (and a bit too toasted). When the waitress came to follow up, I told her what I thought and she was really kind about switching out the meal… but I was on a time crunch so I didn’t bother.
The hot chocolate was ok… I’ve had better.
I’ll probably give them another shot in the future. A table next to mine had pancakes and apple fritters and their food looked pretty good.

Was in the area today with my wife and we decided to give this one another try. I’m really glad we did because I had their Sequoia Burger and it was excellent. Cooked to my liking and so fresh. They have won me over and now I have to go back. Props to the server too. She was very nice, attentive and knowledgeable of their menu.

Even though I prefer little hole in the wall diners this place is a great more corporate option for breakfast!
— very clean
— lots of tables
— outdoor seating ! Pet friendly!
— apple fritters (sooo yummy!) crispy crunch with a soft inside filled with chunks of apples. Strawberry yogurt dipping sauce. So good!!)
— breakfast potatoes with bacon drippings
— healthier options with egg whites!

Just grabbed brunch at Peach Valley. Of course I ordered the apple fritters. It’s a must order every time you come here. My friend got the chicken and waffles and she enjoyed it. There was no wait at all and the service was excellent.

This adorable neighborhood restaurant caught my attention for two reasons: eggs Benedict and also shrimp and grits on the menu.
So glad we stopped in.
This restaurant has a brightness to it that is perfect for breakfast and brunch. Light. Airy. Gentle. It has a breezy feeling.
The food is the same.
You will not find heavy, greasy meals here. The food is served seemingly with love and affection.
The offerings are varied: pumpkin pancakes for the season, apple fritters, skillets, waffles, french toast, fresh fruits, cereals, salads, wraps, soups, sandwiches, burgers, fried chicken — and all very reasonably priced. Expect to spend about $ 10 per person for a heaping plate of luscious eats.
They even have chicken and waffles, pecan pancakes and quiche. Seriously! Something for everyone.
I fell instantly in love with my Benedict. And the shrimp and grits on the table carried a huge endorsement.
Mimosas, too? Score!

Reasonably priced breakfast food. Great biscuits! So excited to hear they serve mimosas! I’ll definitely get one next time.
The only downside was that they don’t have flavored creamer for the coffee.
The employees were taking off parts of their uniforms and kind of hanging out at the front as they prepared to leave for the day. Kind of a bad look that made it look a tad unprofessional but we understood they were probably happy to get out; we just thought it might rub some people the wrong way.

I award Peach Valley as the «Best Breakfast Place in Orlando!
The Server was hilarious even though he forgot everything but his personality matches the Southern Country Charm atmosphere of this restaurant.
The food is excellent! Everything was clean!
Mimosas & Peach Bellinis were the bomb! Awesome place to start a day!
If you need a place that feels elegant and classy in the morning but yet reasonable, head to this place!

Peach Valley is one of my favorite brunch places. I got the Healthy omelette, egg whites, spinach, tomatoes and I changed the turkey for avocado. I wasn’t happy that they charged me $ 1 to swap the turkey for avocado.
The potatoes I ordered extra crispy, no onions and got the biscuit. I love their biscuits. Cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside, warm and buttery on the inside.
The food was good, however, my omelette was greasy.

I have driven by this place for months and when I finally got to try it I was too excited. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. I have to say I was unimpressed.
The Good: The outdoor seating is very nice. Although sometimes the early delivery trucks van be a little noisy, I felt there was plenty of shade to eat and wasn’t ignored by our server. Speaking of the service, it was friendly and kind. The décor had a modern diner feel on the inside but on the outside has the appearancebof a regular food place. My f liked this aspect but I was disappointed thay it didn’t have that café/​diner feel.
The Bad: The food left me wanting. The french toast was dry, thin, and had little to no flavor. The eggs were slightly overdone, and the sausage was bland on top of bland. Truly it was horrendous. I imagine it’s excellent hangover food: not too much flavor and dry enough to soak up all that alcohol. It tasted like they got the bread from the sale counter at the bakery outlet. #cross
All in all I gave them 3 stars because although I wouldn’t come back again for the french toast I have heard their other dishes are very good. I would just stay away from anything bread wise.
