So, we pulled into the parking lot and it is not a very updated building and I didn't have high hopes. I was wrong. Everything was great. We had the chick fried steak with pancakes, steak with mashed potatoes and onion rings, and 1/2 Rubin sandwhich with small salad. All the food was very good and super service. To top it off, it was Wednesday and it was free pie night. Apparently, they are known for their pies and we each had a piece! All basic pie slices are free and $1 for the fancy ones. It is already on our list for next summer, my daughter loves pie!
My 2nd time here. We stayed across the road at the doubletree by Hilton resort. But, because this restaurant so good in our first visit, we had to come for late breakfast early lunch again. And the place still look so inviting, and warming. The staff so super friendly and the food so delicious. U feel at peace enjoying the meal. Highly recommended for everyone. We missed the free pie. That for some other times. A great start for the 4th of July celebration.
Breakfast and service are fantastic.
Place looks empty from outside. Worth the visit. Save money on hotel breakfast and eat yummy delicious eggs, hash brown or potato with veggies, pancakes, free refills on coffee and juices.
I liked the California breakfast and multigrain pancakes.
Comfortable interior - spacious
Pies around the world - all pies made my mouth water. Free pie Wednesdays. Drop in for coffee and enjoy a pie slice.
Service is excellent on my visit
Host with most - smiles and the manager called me sweetheart and dear. I loved it.
The staff is great, helpful, and entertaining! One of the waiters does a good impression of local characters. There was the best balloon animal artist we have ever seen. The food is decently priced. Coffee is good. And the bacon, eggs, pancakes are yummy. The kids also liked the fun kids pancakes! We went there to days in a row!
My cousin-in-law had bought a pie from VI last Christmas, so I knew I had to try this place sometime. Came in for lunch on a Friday and was surprised that it was not crowded (being right next to the convention center). I was seated immediately and even asked what drink I'd like as I was walking to the table!
Being a Friday, I had to order something meatless, so I got the French toast with strawberries and bananas. I'll admit I was a little apprehensive that the strawberry sauce might be super sweet. As it turned out, it was just sweet enough and the fresh cream cut the sugar even more. Perfect blend of flavors.
My only complaint is that the glass of orange juice was expensive. (For $3, I can get a half gallon of OJ from Publix.)
I will have to come back on a non-Friday to try some of their meaty dishes. (And I'll be getting a pie from here for my daughter's birthday next week.)
When I got here midmorning I thought it might have been closed tucked in between a Best Western and a fenced off lot. But when we went in we we're greeted and seated immediately. Our server did a fine job, even if he was a bit over friendly. I had the chef salad and it was excellent. My daughter had the French toast and said it was really good. The pies looked fantastic and I really wanted some but was able to resist as I am not allowed pie anymore. Overall it was a good experience and reminiscent of other locations from past years. An excellent value for the money.

We visited the Village Inn on a recent trip to Orlando. We had excellent service and the food was very good. It is a classic diner food with all day breakfast. They have a sign that says "The best pie in America". We had breakfast and pie. The pie was great! The prices were reasonable for this area. The exterior of the building can be deceiving but give it a try!
I've never been to a Village Inn before and it didn't disappoint! My fam loved everything they got and my (4 yo)daughter was in awww about her mickey pancakes. This was my first time having ham steak here and i didn't know it was the bone in version. The ham was plentiful, super tasty, and not overly salty, just the way I like like my ham. The pancakes that came with my order was fluffy in the center but a little crisp on the edges, again just how I like my pancakes. This is a very good place for breakfast, maybe lunch?
Service was fast and friendly but more importantly the food was great! If you're in mood for a traditional diner breakfast this is place to go.
I am not in Kansas anymore! That's what I felt when I left the most recommended Village Inn in Orlando!!! Lots of Food! Retro & Friendly ambiance!
Great little diner. Friendly and fast service. Food was good. Pie was great. Really quaint and quiet stop. Prices were good and portions were suitable.
Arrived for a late dinner. No wait. Staff seated us immediately. Waitress was absolutely wonderful and even advised on food portions sizes. Manager was also pleasant and friendly. Bathroom can use some cleaning.
Weary from traveling, I pulled into this village inn next to my hotel. The staff was magnanimous, and attentive. My spirit feels lifted because of good food and good people.
Village inn is the best kept secret! The food is always great! The service is always great! You can get in and out and go about your day! I always get the VIB which lets you pick and mix and match your breakfast!
Homely atmosphere. Great customer service. Delicious food 😋 The food was prepared as ordered. Didn't mind the wait. Will go back to try the famous pies! 😊
The food was great! My husband and I love Village Inn, especially the VIB. I noticed, however, that the VIB special is a bit more expensive than the St. Cloud one most likely due to location. This one is right by SeaWorld, so I'm sure it gets a lot of tourists. The service was a bit slow, but we went on a Monday morning and they're weren't a lot of servers understandably. The road/area where it is looks a bit run down and sketchy. A homeless person asked us for money in the parking lot. It's not necessarily unsafe though. Anyways, good food always, little bit slow service, and interesting area!
Excellent and friendly service. Freshly prepared and delicious food. The pancakes were fluffy and golden.
Absolutely love this place... I have such regret that I hadn't visited sooner! Great food, friendly service, and amazing pie! Pictured is the breakfast burrito, which is quite large.
Breakfast was great and they also had entertainment for little kids. A very sweet and patient gentleman in charge of creating the most complicated figures made out of balloons. Also, we got lucky and saw the impersonation of Donald Duck.
