Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Apopka

"Don't use the word hipster to describe this place,' says Tess, the server. She prefers 'weirdo eclectic.' Whatever you call it, you get the picture. This, er, hipster-hippie hangout has folks hiding behind..."

"Part art deco bakery, part homage to Alice In Wonderland, The Glass Knife is a spot in Winter Park that serves just about every sweet you can imagine, from pistachio orange donuts to a chocolate raspberry tart. Each of their baked goods is decorated by hand and you’ll likely see a lot of people taking photos of their desserts. However, if you come with someone who isn’t really into sweets, this place also has a full brunch and lunch menu with things like breakfast sandwiches, salads, and flatbreads available for the savory-only people in your life."

"Serving breakfast and lunch in addition to desserts, The Glass Knife in Winter Park is headed by Executive Chef Stuart Whitfield. Hardcore Disney fans might recognize that name as belonging to the maestro who previously sweetened up menus at Victoria and Albert’s, Be Our Guest Restaurant and other Walt Disney World Resort favorites.

"This cozy little plant-based café must be onto something because it’s always crowded. Chelsie and Jamie Savage spent years traveling the country tasting plant-based food and brought their finds to the Mills 50 District where they are winning over the hearts, and stomachs, of the community. The Sanctum serves vegetarian in addition to vegan fare, so as long as you are fine with a shared kitchen, you won’t be disappointed, especially because the ingredients are all GMO-free and mostly organic."

As one of Orlando’s newest vegan restaurants, The Sanctum is quickly becoming a community favorite for their wholesome and sustainable menu."

"Editor's Note: There's no photo available at the time of writing. When discussions about health food comes up, the usual descriptions that resonate are tasteless and bland. But at The Sanctum cafe, the owners aim to dispel such things."

"Ice & Bites Cafe has officially raised the bars for bubble tea craft. On top of their desserts range that includes ice cream in different presentation, as well as a hefty food menu, their bubble tea menu is probably the most impressive of them all. Not only do they have the classic bubble teas of a variety of milk tea and fruit tea flavours, their hottest menu item has got to be the Boba Sake or Soju Flight, where directly imported sake from Japan and soju from South Korea are mixed with freshly made toppings including popping pearls, fruity flavoured ones and the classic sugar pearls."

"Step out of the hot Florida sun and into a Korean oasis to quench your sugary appetite. With fresh ingredients purchased from local markets and recipes created on-site, Ice & Bites Café offers a truly unique experience. The Taiyaki is just as mouth-watering as it is eye-pleasing."

"Le Gourmet Break brings Paris to Orlando with a charming bistro-style eatery offering a selection of crêpes, homemade quiches, freshly baked pastries, and house-roasted coffee in a bright and airy environment. An excellent spot for breakfast and great coffee, Le Gourmet Break serves a creative menu of dishes ranging from three-egg omelets and egg scrambles to omelet bagels and croissants, French breakfasts of baguettes and jam, a selection of mouthwatering pastries, and gourmet sandwiches and wraps. Fresh salads and homemade soups are also on offer, along with croquet monsieur and madams, panini and croissants sandwiches, quiche of the day, and sweet and savory crêpes."

"Central Business District's Le Gourmet Break, located at 150 S. Magnolia Ave., is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the cafe, bakery and breakfast and brunch spot 4.5 stars out of 377 reviews."

"Nourish Coffee Bar + Kitchen is where you’ll want to venture when you’re both hungry and in need of caffeine. Located inside the Center for Health and Wellbeing, you’ll also enjoy a healthy meal that’s made with locally-sourced produce at the peak of its nutrition along with your coffee. If a pickup is what you need, we suggest the espresso double, brewed from organically grown Blue Heron Espresso Nicaragua Selva Negra."

"If you’re in Winter Park looking for somewhere to work, Lobos Coffee Roasters is your spot. We love that there’s indoor and outdoor seating!. It’s relatively quiet so it’s the perfect place to take a meeting."

"Relatively inexpensive compared to quality, Zero Degrees brings bubble tea to a whole new level. Pioneering a reinvented age for boba, this exquisite bubble tea shop not only has a wide variation of flavours and toppings, but their presentation and innovation is top notch!. One-of-a-kind in the whole world, don’t miss the chance to try their split cup deal where you can get two flavours for the price of one — you’ll never have to eliminate any flavour from your top two choices anymore!"

"If you haven't heard of Zero Degrees until now, it's a Asian-Hispanic fusion chain focusing on snack foods and drinks with heavy presence on the West Coast. Nothing here is healthy, it's truly a menu of guilty pleasures. This ube milkshake was a fun, sweet cool down, topped with a sour rainbow stripe, a toasted marshmallow, because why not."

"With a collection of over 200 works by the award-winning, internationally recognized Czech-born sculptor Albin Polasek, the museum not only offers a reprieve for art lovers but nature lovers as well. Located on beautiful Lake Osceola, the sculptor’s home, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, sits amid breathtaking grounds. Take a guided tour through the three-acre sculpture gardens, find serenity in the chapel, or simply linger along the tree-lined paths while enjoying one of Central Florida’s spectacular sun-filled days."

"Born in 1879 in what is now known as the Czech Republic, internationally acclaimed sculptor Albin Polasek emigrated to the U.S. in his early 20s. During his long career, he created more than 400 works of art — and you can view nearly half of them at the Albin Polasek Museum & Sculpture Gardens in Winter Park, about 20 minutes north of International Drive.
