Came across a nice little diner in Longwood the other day. I was looking for a different restaurant, one that didn’t seem to be at the address I had been given. After making a couple of passes and not finding it, I saw Max & Meme Cafe and decided to go inside. 

I left quite happy. We’re not talking oh-my-god wonderful, but the food was pretty much standard fare for a dinerlike cafe.

At the suggestion of my server (whose playfulness and good nature added to the enjoyment), I had the pot roast lunch, a full plate of tender, falling-apart tender meat with a plop of mashed potatoes holding a well of dark gravy and steamed green beans and carrots. More than enough to eat, and priced under $9. What’s not to like?

M&M also has a full roster of breakfast items, and the BLTs at the next table looked so good I almost ordered one to go.

As for the place I couldn’t find, I’ve already forgotten what it was.

Max & Meme Cafe is at 1050 State Road 434, Longwood. It is open for breakfast and lunch daily. It does not seem to have a website. The phone number is 407-429-4956.
