Cup of Love Cafe — Restaurant in Oviedo

I came here one morning when we were in the mood for a quiet, quaint coffee shop. I looked at my massive list of saved restaurants, and Cup of Love was one of them, and it's less than five minutes away from my place, so it was an easy choice. Especially when I quickly glanced at the menu.

It's a very nicely decorated space inside. A myriad of seating options, cute coffee shop stuff all over the walls, and a very trendy neon "Love" light wall with a green foliage background on top of a comfy little ottoman for good social media pics.

Service was nice. There was only one person in the whole store, but she was very friendly, helped me figure out what to eat and drink, and was very attentive the whole time. No issues there.

We ordered some drinks. They had a ton of options, hot, cold, frapps, all your major drink groups. I got something cold and sweet, she got something hot and almondy, and the way the glasses were adorned was pretty incredible for a small spot like this. An Oreo encrusted rim, crushed almonds floating on top, it was just enough effort to get my appreciation.

As for the food, we started with a chicken salad sandwich, and it was good. Simple bread, toasted, packed with way more chicken salad than I was expecting in this economy. And it was tasty. Plenty of chicken, dressed nicely, just a little sweet, so where the salty potato chips paired with it very well.

Then I ordered my breakfast. I'm a little ridiculous, and I always order more than I should, so of course I got the entire Persian Breakfast (Butter, Cream cheese, Honey, Jam, Walnut, Olive, Hummus, Cucumber, Tomato, Scrambled Egg with tomato, Fresh vegetable, Special bread) all for myself.

I have no regrets, though. Sure, it was a lot of food, but it was a lot of small bites that were basically endlessly customizable. A little egg with some bread, a cucumber on top, a little tomato with some hummus and walnuts, a little of this, a little of that. You couldn't go wrong. It was lovely, it was unexpected in Oviedo, and I loved it.

Overall, this was a lovely little surprise, and I had no idea it was so close to home. Don't get me wrong, I love a good Starbies every once in a while, but I will always support small business over big business when I can. I...

We came here on a whim to have a birthday breakfast for my daughter and what a fantastic little cafe! The decor is inviting and soothing. The food menu is not super extensive but the specialty here is clearly their drinks! They offer a large variety of hot and cold drinks, coffees, teas, matcha, and some cultural rare finds! We were a party of six and were able to sit right away despite Sunday right before lunch.

I got the golden latte which was delightful! It came with a beautiful design of cinnamon on top! I had never had that and really enjoyed it down to the last drop! Others in our party had black coffee with hazelnut, iced caramel macchiato, Turkish coffee and an iced matcha latte. Everyone was so happy with their drinks!

I had the Persian chicken salad on white bread and it was just as tasty as it sounded! The chicken was tender and the flavor was divine! Our party ordered the turkey club, a turkey club on pita (they’ll do this for you), the chicken salad, a Cobb salad, and a beef gyro. The only item that didn’t look too impressive was the Cobb salad, mainly because there was so much lettuce (a plus) but appeared to be lacking enough hard boiled egg. It also did not come dressed but we asked for ranch which was brought out quickly. My MIL’s chicken salad looked hearty and fresh and she seemed to enjoy it. My husband received fresh house made tzatziki with his gyro and really enjoyed it.

The server was super accommodating and patient with us, especially impressive as she seemed to be the only one “on the floor” serving the customer and making specialty drinks. After a little bit, we saw a couple of other employees, likely from the back, preparing food.

So excited to have this gem so close to home and in our town that is otherwise flush with chains. We will surely be back to try some of the other menu items and just soak up...

While visiting family/friends in the area, we searched for locally owned coffee shops that we could visit and pick up a bag of coffee if we enjoyed it. Got there. 2 young ladies were working, the one asked if we had ever been there, and the other didn't say a word. We were handed a menu and were told that they would be with us in a minute. About 10 minutes later, we finally went up to order because the conservation the 2 were having wasn't very appropriate. I unfortunately do not like the syrups that are served there so I was not going to order, my bf on the other had was just going to try a regular cup of coffee so that if he enjoyed it enough we'd buy a bag. That didn't happen either because the young lady stated it would be about 3 to 5 minutes because they didn't have any brewed. I could see if they were busy and just ran out, but they weren't. I try not to leave negative reviews, but this was one of the worst experiences I've had in a long while. People need to do better, especially with...
