Jacob's Cafe & Restaurant — Restaurant in Alafaya

An Unforgettable Turkish Breakfast Experience at Jacob’s!

We had the pleasure of dining at Jacob’s, and it was truly a fantastic experience!

My wife and I enjoyed the Turkish Breakfast Plate for two, the Crêpe Nutella, and I had a coffee. Every bite was incredible. The authenticity of the food was undeniable, we even got to meet Jacob’s mom herself and she actually prepared all the dishes.

The Turkish Breakfast Plate was a feast of perfectly balanced flavors, from fresh cheeses and olives to perfectly cooked eggs and a wonderful assortment of breads. The Crêpe Nutella was the perfect sweet treat, and the coffee complemented everything perfectly.

We sat outside on their beautiful patio, which added to the charm of the meal. The setting was peaceful and inviting, making it the perfect spot to enjoy the wonderful spread.

Special thanks to Julie who took amazing care of us, bringing out waves of dishes, describing everything and walking us through what turned out to be an amazing cultural experience. She is a true hospitality gem.

If you’re looking for authentic Turkish cuisine, a welcoming atmosphere, and outstanding service, Jacob’s is the place to go. We can’t wait...

Let me tell you right now - WHAT A REBRAND. I’ve been coming here for a few years. Let me set the stage for you: I can’t even remember the name of the first one. But I remember the girl who worked the POS most often was always grumpy and I was scared to ask her for anything. I only stopped by because of the large coffee flavor selection. Then Paris Cafe came. Mediocre to be honest. Nothing special and my boyfriend hated the food. I was just driving by to run some errands and saw a new name. Jacob’s - decided to give it a try with low hopes to be honest. When I tell you.. wow. I can’t wait to come back again. The menu is elevated, the latte was delicious, and Juli was soooo sweet and helpful. She was bubbly and kind and attentive. I couldn’t believe how cute everything was. Bohemian, yet classy too. My kind of Florida cafe ! Sit outside under a macrame umbrella or inside in the AC. When I sent my best friend pics her exact words were “Omg that place looks like it could’ve been designed by you. It’s so cute!!” Fit for all ages. I found my new hangout spot when I come to Waterford to work or gab with friends. Excited and wish them plenty of success!...

A Hidden Gem for Great Food and a Perfect Work Spot!

We stumbled upon this café and were pleasantly surprised by how much it had to offer. The space is incredibly clean and filled with natural light — ideal for working or studying. It has a calm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to stay a while.

We ordered the chicken sandwich, ribeye sandwich, and chicken Caesar salad — all were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The quality of the ingredients really stood out. To top it off, we had some of their gelato, which was excellent — creamy, rich, and a perfect sweet finish to the meal.

We also had the pleasure of chatting briefly with the owner, a lovely lady from Turkey, who was warm and welcoming. The service overall was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and genuine.

We’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this spot whether you’re grabbing a bite, getting some work done, or just looking for a cozy...
