The Whiskey Cake menu features options including Goat Cheese Fondue and crispy Flash-Fried Brussels Sprouts and entrees like the Rotisserie Farm Bird, Tavern Burger and Bone-In Pork Chop. Menu items like Whiskey Cake’s custom-crafted seasonal melts, stacks and salads highlight the best local ingredients, including items from Jax Bread Co. and Bee Friend Farm in Jacksonville, in addition to Trevi Pasta located in central Florida. Of course, no visit to Whiskey Cake would be complete without trying its namesake dessert, the famous Whiskey Cake, a sticky toffee cake topped with spiced pecans and house-made vanilla whipped cream.
Whiskey Cake’s award-winning brunch, available every Saturday and Sunday, dials things up a notch with favorites like the Carrot Cake Pancake Stack and the savory Wagyu Wake-Up Hash.
