About

Se7en Bites is widely considered one of the best brunch spots in Orlando -- a from-scratch Southern bakery and breakfast restaurant that has earned a devoted local following. Located in a converted house in the Milk District, about 15 minutes east of downtown and 25 minutes from the theme park corridor, it serves the kind of soulful, generous comfort food that turns a meal into a memory.

The menu is Southern comfort at its finest, made entirely from scratch. The biscuits are flaky, buttery, and enormous. The Biscuits and Gravy plates a softball-sized biscuit under a ladle of house-made sausage gravy.

The Southern Biscuit Sandwich layers a crispy fried chicken breast with pimento cheese, pickled jalapenos, and honey on a split biscuit. The French Toast uses thick-cut brioche soaked in vanilla custard and griddled until golden. Pancakes span the entire plate.

The bakery case deserves its own mention. Displayed near the entrance, it holds a rotating selection of cakes (the caramel cake is legendary), cinnamon rolls the size of a child's head, cookies, pies, and seasonal specials. Smart parents order a few items to go for snacking later in the day.

The atmosphere is homey and informal. The converted house has several small dining rooms, a front porch with a few tables, and a back patio. On weekend mornings, a line typically forms by 9 AM and grows steadily. The wait is manageable (20-45 minutes) and moves at a reasonable pace.

Se7en Bites is closed on Mondays -- triple-check before driving across town. Tuesday through Friday mornings offer the shortest waits. The restaurant closes at 2 PM daily.

Why Kids Love It

Se7en Bites serves the kind of Southern comfort food that makes kids clean their plates without being asked. The buttermilk pancakes are as big as the plate. The biscuits and gravy use homemade biscuits the size of a softball, split open and smothered in sausage gravy.

The French toast is made with thick-cut brioche drenched in vanilla custard and topped with seasonal fruit. Everything is made from scratch, portions are enormous, and the flavors are the kind of hearty, comforting cooking that kids instinctively love.

The restaurant itself is a converted house in Orlando's Milk District neighborhood, giving it a cozy, eat-at-grandma's-house feel. The bakery case by the entrance displays cakes, pies, cinnamon rolls, and cookies that stop kids in their tracks. The porch and patio seating give parents some breathing room when kids get antsy.

For families who have been eating theme park food all week, Se7en Bites is the cure. Every dish tastes like it was made with love by someone who actually enjoys cooking, because it was.

Tips to Save

  • Water is free.
  • Closed Mondays -- do not drive across town only to find the door locked.
