  Good place for a nice breakfast. I ordered 2 blueberry pancakes and barely finished them. It came with standard syrup ('pure' maple syrup is $2 extra) and some mixed berry compote, which was a little tart and overpowered the taste of the blueberries and pancake. I will avoid using it next time.
  
  I am looking forward to going back and trying their french toast and some of their other dishes. Their omelettes are solid and they make good muffins.
  
  My main dislike of this establishment has nothing to do with the restaurant itself, but the people that go there. I went on a Saturday morning, so I expected it to be busy (which it was). However, at over half the tables were poorly behaved, obnoxiously loud children. I use the term "at the table" loosely, as most of them were running around, opening and closing the side doors, rubbing their disgusting little faces all over the glass and handles and anything they could reach while their meek fathers gently and unconvincingly chided them and asked them to sit down and behave (Oh sit down, you rascal! My kids are cute, so the rest of the restaurant doesn't mind them skittering all over the place playing tag! Haha!). This is not so much a gripe about the restaurant as it is the state of white parenting in the area.
  
  I will say one final thing: Parking is somewhat of a challenge. The parking lot is very oddly shaped with dead ends and sharp angles, and fills up rather easily. I got lucky and got the last spot in the area around First Watch, but as it is in the Villages shopping center where parking is frequently difficult, you may have to drive around or down to some of the other shopping blocks to find a spot and hike in.

  Great place for healthy choices for breakfast. It gets a little busy on weekends though. Nice location at Daniels Mall in Winter Garden.

  Excellent vegetarian options. The fresh is fresh, the portions large, and the coffee hot. It's a chain that doesn't feel like a chain. One of our favorites.
