Trey was awesome! Very polite and timely. Will come see him for brunch again. Food was delicious

Hands down, favorite spot. Such a magical spot but also so so delicious! Never leave without a donut and a coffee. It's has the cutest ambiance and the love that goes into each item that is made is really special. Crème brûlée donut is apparently life changing, per my husband. Ordered the chocolate chip cookie this time around too. Had them heat it up! It can be pricey, I am not going to lie. Half a dozen donuts at almost 40 bucks is kind of crazy to some people, I get it. It is beautiful inside and the service is just as wonderful. If you're looking for somewhere to unwind and relax and really enjoy yourself, please go to the glass knife. It's worth every penny and the peace it brings to your soul is just as important!

I have been wanting to try The Glass Knife for a while and I will say it did not disappoint. The inside has a cozy, kind of retro/luxury vibe and is super unique. You can order to go or be seated for full service. We opted for the full service to grab a meal and dessert. Our server was lovely and the service was efficient. I got the Cheddar Biscuit Sandwich Plate and Strawberry Lemonade Petite Cake. My boyfriend got the Pimento Cheese croissant. The food was amazing!! Everything was delicious and I highly recommend both the Cheddar Biscuit and Pimento Cheese croissant. Very filling and just so yummy. The cake was good, but not sure if I would get it again. However, they have a huge selection of desserts so you can definitely find just about anything you might want. We will definitely be back soon as the service was great and the food was fabulous!

We were running errands in the area and stopped in for a Monday brunch. Having just returned from vacation it was a much needed pick me up before the return to reality. I had the quiche which is always delightful and hubs had a biscuit sandwich and there were no complaints from him. We split the crème brûlée doughnut which has a brûléed top as the name suggests. It crackles perfectly when you bite into it. The patisseries here are always decadent and unique. As per diem I wanted to buy everything in the well curated gift shop.

I have been to the glass knife 4 times and counting. These are pictures from my previous visits. I always get the Avocado toasts for my partner and I. I like it with smoked salmon and she likes it with the chicken salad. Very savory and my favorite part of it the bacon jam. The avocado is very generous! We must ALWAYS get the strawberry lemonade waffles. When we first got them, we couldn't believe how delicious they were. The waffle itself is dense and the lemon curd with the strawberry sauce goes soooo well with it. Although, it is very sweet! Their cookie butter cold foam is good but not very sweet, we had different expectations. If you like your cold foam to have a flavor but not sweet; go for it! My favorite is their cinnamon vanilla lavender latte (iced). Its name is a mouthful but it's very delicious. You have to get their croissants. When we first visited, we got ours to go. That was a mistake. It was stale when we got to it the next day but we knew it was our fault for not eating it right away. Ask for them to be toasted; it's divine!!! Buttery, soft, airy yet crispy with a delicious taste. Chocolate croissants is also very good with a slight sweetness from the beautiful glaze on top. Their desserts are fun to try! Large selections to choose from. Our favorite is the berry cheesecake. The onyx coffee is very dense with strong coffee and chocolate mousse. There's a rosé verrine from time to time, I really enjoy that one! It's like a panna cotta with added texture. The staff is helpful and always quick to bring you anything else you need once you sit down. The to-go packaging is beautiful, too. Attention to detail is definitely there. The seating is up for grabs so definitely try to snag your seat of preference and if it's not cleaned, the staff is so helpful! They clean it up when they have a moment. They're apologetic about any mishaps or mistakes. Outdoor seating is ventilated. The bathrooms are kept up and very pretty, great for selfies. The reward system is also very cool! I believe it's $10 after every $50 purchased. I can't recall but very worth it if you frequent like we do. It's not pushed into you at all. I noticed it after checking out and reading the final screen. You just sign up with your number. I recommend everyone to give it a try!

Amazing, Absolutely Amazing. Delectable, Deliciously Delectable. Wonderful, Welcomingly Wonderful. All that describes the clean exterior, outside seating with multiple overhead fans, THE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND CLEAN RESTROOMS, streak-free countertops, bakery displays to drool over *and* our food was like OH MY GOSH...so damn good!! My daughter and I swapped one half our sandwiches with each other so we could have a greater experience and again, OH MY GOSH. Everything was perfect including the staff (friendly but not intrusive- we dined in peace) and other patrons. The staff because they kept the dining area clean as diners left and other patrons because they offered smiles and conversation. And the bonus is the learning we gained on The Glass Knife, an instrument dating back to the early 1900's. If you've not been here, you should; and if you have, like my daughter and I - I'm thinking you'll return. THANK YOU TGK for providing a five star experience.

How i adore the glass knife!! it can be a little crowded on the weekends so if your dropping by just for a coffee and pastry there is a to go line. We often sit down for breakfast and this is the best avocado toast in orlando. perfectly seasoned with a drizzle and salad on top!! 4 stars because it's really overpriced and the coffee is 7 dollars and a donut (although delicious) is 5 dollars. will i keep going back, yes am i aware it's overpriced, yes lol. The ambiance inside resembles a normal coffee shop, but the outdoor section is very nice especially in the morning! The irish cream iced coffee and the lavender espresso are my personal favorites.
