Happy Hour weekdays 3pm-6pm at our Park Avenue location. · Details
Winter Park, Florida
Famous for the dessert. Just as serious about the meal. Breakfast, brunch, and lunch every day. The best coffee in town. Donuts that disappear by noon. The kind of desserts people talk about long after the last bite. Winning a Best Of, year after year, since 2017. Two Winter Park locations.
What we do
Brunch worth making plans for. Fresh breakfast and lunch served daily, alongside beautiful desserts that taste every bit as good as they look.
Recognition
A Winter Park favorite since 2017.
16 first-place wins across eight consecutive years
More than a bakery
From stunning layer cakes to jewel-like pastries and unforgettable sweet treats, The Glass Knife makes desserts that look unforgettable and taste even better.
And then there is the name.
Why we are called
The name is not metaphor.
Depression-era cake knives. Pressed glass in translucent green, blush pink, and deep cobalt. Made in American factories in the 1930s and given away in oatmeal boxes and at gas stations — bright objects for kitchens that had little else to be bright about.
Our mother started picking them up. Estate sales. Back shelves. The kitchens of friends. She kept them because they were lovely. Then she kept finding more.
The collection is here now, on display in our restaurants. Chips of Depression glass are sprinkled through the terrazzo floor — most guests never notice. The kind of detail we hide everywhere. The kind that brings you back.
Two locations
