Looking for hearty, classic flavors in a low-down spot around town? Then we have the perfect place for you! It’s called White Wolf Café, and it’s bringing gourmet bistro to your bellies from morning to night. Let’s check it out!
What is White Wolf Café?
Located on North Orange Avenue in Ivanhoe Village comes White Wolf Café, an award-winning bistro that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
This place initially got its start in August 1991 as an antique store and gets its namesake from Casper, a white German shepherd who posed as the shop’s faithful companion during its run.
As time passed, White Wolf grew into an eclectic restaurant with one-of-a-kind décor offering a wide variety of food options and drinks.
You can enjoy breakfast or lunch from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Mondays through Wednesdays, as well as 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sundays, or stop in for whatever meal your heart desires on Thursdays through Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
What to Dine On
Whether you’re coming to White Wolf Café for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, or for drinks, we’ve got you covered on its finest offerings.
For breakfast, enjoy flavors of cinnamon buns, omelets, breakfast sandwiches, french toast, and plenty of savory or sweet sides to boot.

Brunch is served on weekends, and you can order soups, salads, burgers, and sandwiches. Lunch offers much of the same with the addition of more soup options and flatbreads!

During dinner, you can order everything on the lunch menu, or you can opt for something more filling. Find entrées such as pork tenderloin medallions, blackened mahi, pan seared salmon, New York strip steak, chicken chimichurri, Tuscan fettuccine Alfredo, or spaghetti with clams.
We tried the spaghetti pomodoro with meatballs, and it was mouth wateringly delicious. The tenderness of the beef and pork meatballs coupled with the rich, savory tomato basil sauce makes for a satiating meal.
Got a hankering for something sweet? White Wolf offers desserts from fudge brownie sundaes and Key lime pies, to cinnamon roll ice cream sandwiches and chocolate ganache cake.
For drinks, this restaurant serves beer, wine, mimosas, sangria, and liquor. If you want to know what’s hot, dine inside and see what the current drink selections are. Sit and sip during happy hour Thursday through Saturday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
The Ambiance
When you step beneath all the flourishing plant life through the double doors of White Wolf Café, make no mistake. You didn’t walk into an antique shop — just the shell of one!
This lovely antique shop-turned restaurant envelops diners into a warm, welcoming environment with low lighting emitting from uniquely decorated stained glass fixtures.
As you dine on fine foods, you can enjoy the abundant artwork lining the walls of the restaurant. Even though White Wolf is no longer an antique shop, it still possesses all the old-school, classy vibes it left behind.
Overall
There are plenty of places around Orlando to grab traditional American bites, but none are quite as satisfying as dining at White Wolf Café. If you’re the kind of person who likes to eat in a chic, stylish environment while still enjoying the flavors of all your favorite foods, then this might be the place for you.
