Canopy Road Cafe

(7.11.2021)
I've gone here twice with my partner and both times we had an excellent experience. The second time was just this previous weekend. Overall, it's good food for your money and the staff are all really warm and welcoming.

Pros:
- Good food. My partner is vegetarian and is always able to find something new to try. They are also a fan of the "make your own skillet". While the biscuits were not the best ones I've ever had, they were certainly not the worst. They make my top 5 any time.
- Welcoming atmosphere. Despite how busy the restaurant was, the manager took care of us almost immediately. Our waitress (Edna I think?) was attentive to us, but not to an annoying point (if that makes sense). She was also very funny, making small talk with us while we ordered.

Cons:
- The weather outside (which, I understand is not in the restaurant's control). I would HIGHLY recommend you ask for a table inside. This Florida heat (and the flies) are no joke!
- The wait for any table (inside or out) will require you to have to wait for a nice chunk of time. So, even if you decide to bite the bullet and say yes to "first available (table)", be prepared to have to wait.
- Just a bit pricey. Take your time with the menu, especially if you're on a bit of a budget.

Overall:
- Highly recommend. Family friendly and the food is delicious. The staff are friendly and the ambiance of the entire place is welcoming. Just be prepared to wait for a bit and ask for indoor seating (even if it makes the wait a bit longer).

My second review for Canopy Road. I still recommend the cinnamon roll, it's pillowy, fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth wonderfulness is unforgettable. It's the first thing I tried on my first ever visit and it's still my top fave. If you are more health conscious save this for the "cheat day" or try the Bee Bee skillet (healthy and filling). I'll have to leave a future review for the country fried steak with extra gravy.... it's to live for.

New menu keeping the most popular dishes from old menu. There were six of us. Two had eggs Benedict, one cheeseburger, chicken strips and I had a yummy checked salad sandwich. A can't go wrong!!

Been here several times but today actually was quite good. The wait to be seated was short, the food was prepared quickly and was better quality than the past few times I was there. Other than being a bit rushed to leave because another large party was waiting for the table, overall, was a good experience.

I had the Fat Elvis today, which are pancakes with bacon and banana slices cooked inside, topped with melted peanut butter chips. They were amazing! The coffee is always good and it's so pleasant to sit outside and watch the world go by. The service is also topnotch!
