Trying to eat Orlando in 7/10 days - Live - Day 6

Keke’s if one of our favourite places to go out here for breakfast and we were looking forward to visiting.

The menu is vast and full of yummy breakfast dishes



I ordered a Diet Coke and Dan ordered coffee and orange juice



Food wise I ordered the banana split waffles which are waffle covered with strawberries, banana, pineapple, chocolate sauce and cream with a cherry on top



When this arrived I though that I’d only get through 1/4 because it was huge but it was very light and fluffy and I got through 2/3 in the end, it was absolutely delicious and one of the best items I’ve eaten here, it’s now going to be my go to dish.

Dan ordered the two egg breakfast which he modified to have a breakfast muffin with, it came with potatoes and eggs and we ordered a side of sausages which are also delicious





It came to around $30 with tip and still remains Our favourite Orlando breakfast place

The Hogs head again

Following a big breakfast we weren't ready for more food just yet So instead we opted for a beer instead


This time we had a pint each of the hogs head brew



Was around $16 and did the trick

Bar 17 - Aventura Hotel

We had been meaning to come up to this rooftop bar earlier on in the trip but hadn’t had the opportunity so we popped up for a quick drink before heading out to Disney Springs this evening.

The views up here are fab, especially at sunset. You can see Disney from here too (and our room at Aventura) Epcot, the castle, tower of terror.



We had a couple of drinks. Dan had a woodfood and coke and I had a Volcano view cocktail which was Suntory ‘Toki’ Whisky, Lemon, & Shiso it was a good cocktail (like a lemon martini) and the shiso was like a mint leaf





Was $26 before tip and definitely worth a trip

The Boathouse-Disney Springs

The Boathouse is one of our favourite restaurants and we were happy to be revisiting.



Our reservation was at 8pm and we were seated within a couple of minutes.

We ordered drinks, Dan had a Diet Coke and I went for a Virgin strawberry daiquiri.





The beautiful warm honey glazed brioche bread arrived and I could have devoured the lot



For food I ordered a Boathouse barbecue bacon burger which was Creamy Coleslaw, Smokey BBQ Sauce, Pimento Cheese, House BBQ Spice Rub




Dan ordered a classic cheeseburger without the salad



The food here is delicious and rich and us a firm favourite, my only complaint would be the change of fries as even though they’re well seasoned they’re now really crispy and more closer to a kettle chip.

Bill came to $51.65 before tip

We love Kekes. The atmosphere is great, the food is great, the prices are great. It is great.

9/10: will eat there again!

The boathouse is a gem in Disney Springs. It has a great view of the lake area around the site and just feels very nautical in theme.

We always feel super welcomed here and the service is a real standout from previous visits. This visit was not exception.

My burger was cooked to perfection (medium) and so well seasoned. Soft bun, right amount of cheese. The fries are different from other places, they are more hand cut and heavily seasoned. They look slightly over cooked (but they are not).

An 8/10: one of the best at Disney Springs

For those of us who haven’t been before, what rooftop bar is it? Looks fabulous!

Thanks Mariaherself - I’ll try to add that to our list for when we’re staying at RPR. It seems like such a nice spot. Really enjoying reading your reports - especially the Universal parts as there doesn’t seem to be many food reports from there!
