★★★★★
Best Colombian coffee in Orlando. The cortadito is exactly how I had it in Bogotá and the queso arepa is fresh off the grill. Easy parking and friendly staff.

CFS Coffee offers takeout, mobile ordering, and delivery through major third-party apps.

CFS Coffee Dr. Phillips sits along Orlando's Restaurant Row on Sand Lake Road, a short drive from Universal and the Convention Center. The café was built around a love of Colombian coffee culture — the beans are sourced from family farms in Colombia and roasted for the shop, and the menu pairs that coffee with arepas, empanadas, and tropical juices you don't usually find at an American coffee chain. The room is bright, modern, and built for laptop sessions, group catch-ups, or a quick stop between meetings.
Order the cortadito or a classic Colombian-style café con leche, then add a queso arepa or a beef empanada. Regulars swear by the pandebono, the cheese-and-guava pastry, and the fresh lulo or maracuyá juice. The breakfast menu runs all day — Calentado Paisa, scrambled eggs with arepa, and avocado toast are the most-ordered plates. Cold-brew flights and the iced latte with house syrup show up in most reviews as standouts.
No reservations — walk in and grab a seat. There's a free parking lot shared with the plaza, and Sand Lake Road has plenty of overflow. The covered patio is dog-friendly, takeout and curbside pickup work through the CFS app, and Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub all deliver. Open 7 AM–5 PM weekdays and 8 AM–6 PM on weekends.

What people are saying
★★★★★
Stop here every morning before work. Cold brew is smooth, empanadas are crisp, and the pandebono is dangerous — I always get two. Bright space, fast service.
★★★★★
Sat on the patio with my dog and had the Calentado Paisa with a café con leche. Massive portion, real Colombian flavors. Will be back every weekend.
