So this place just opened right Oviedo on the Park, which is where my apartment complex is. So, my girlfriend and I walked right up and enjoyed a meal here. We got seated and browsed the menu. The big thing here is that there are different recipes that you choose which form you want it in, be it either paninis or crepes or flatbreads.
We got a couple of iced coffees. She got hers boring and I got mine with a flavor, caramel. They were delicious. It was served all cutely with the mason jar mug. It was also delicious. I even thought my girlfriend's was pretty good, and I usually hate my coffee black.
We ordered a bowl to split of their soup of the day, which was mushroom and brie. Oh my God. It was so good. It was creamy, full of mushrooms, and had just enough of a hint of brie to get my fix. It wasn't too brie-y. Thank goodness. 10/10. Would have it again. And again.
For the main course, we got a Mushrooms Port Savory Crepe (Grilled steak with onions, mushrooms, butter, cracked pepper, Swiss cheese & a port wine reduction). This was delicious. It was crammed with steak and shrooms. I couldn't tell if the steak was freshly cooked or frozen and warmed up, but that's a good thing, I think. It was tender and seasoned well regardless. The cracked pepper was prevalent, and I loved it. The only thing weird going on was that the center of the crepe was soggy. It didn't make it bad, but it was just inconsistent and surprising.
And for dessert, we got The Grand Floridian Sweet Crepe (Pineapple, strawberries & coconut with caramel sauce). It was exactly as you're imaging it right now. The pineapple was sliced super thin, which I loved. The coconut added a desperately needed texture that some people will love and some people will hate. I love shredded coconut. The caramel sauce was ok. Nothing to write home about.
The interior is great. You walk in and are instantly greeted by a giant case of gelato. The decor is quaint. The window looks out onto the street and the beautiful nearby apartments. The staff is super friendly. I was overall very pleased with my experience here and I...
Read moreA few major failings in our visit.
I had asked for the hot ham, cheese and egg croissant but with the croissant on the side to go (as a member of our party would eat it later but I don't eat bread). Once it was made clear I just wanted the bread itself to go everything seemed fine.
Then they brought me a dish with it completely deconstructed. Cold slices of cheese and cold ham. I said it looks great (presentation) but would like the ham and cheese heated with the egg. I asked if they could just pile it together and heat it. He asked if microwave was ok, I said sure (assuming this small place didn't have a griddle or grill). The food was never left alone with me nor touched by me at that point (waiter took it right back upon delivery)
The cook sent him back saying they have a policy that once the food is brought out they can't bring it back?? That was it. No offer to fix it, just basically eat the improperly prepared food or don't but we won't take responsibility for it.
I typically am extremely nice and forgiving in these situations as I have personal experience in restaurant work and know just how difficult it can be. This was a failed underwhelming visit. Period. The prepared food for the rest of my party was underwhelming with subpar ingredients (mostly white tomatoes as an example). Also drink glasses were brought out less than 2/3's 'full' with no refills ever offered. It was not busy, mostly empty.
The only thing on point is their presentation...
Read more407 Coffee Shop is an absolute gem! I recently visited this charming café and had an incredible dining experience. The menu offered an array of delicious options, and I was particularly impressed with their Chicken Pear and Balsamic Panini. It was a true explosion of flavors, combining the savory goodness of chicken with the sweet and tangy notes of pear and balsamic. The combination was a delightful surprise to my taste buds, and I can't wait to have it again.
But that's not all! The crepe I ordered was simply amazing. It was perfectly cooked, with a delectable filling that left me craving for more. The attention to detail and the quality of ingredients really shone through in every bite.
Of course, a great coffee shop wouldn't be complete without excellent coffee, and 407 Coffee Shop certainly hit the spot with their brews. Whether you prefer a latte, cappuccino, or a simple black coffee, they have it all, and each cup is crafted with care.
The ambiance of the café is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy your meal. The staff was friendly and attentive, making the overall experience even more enjoyable.
