The customer service was amazing! The food was great as well, it didn’t take as long as most people were saying. At most, it took a couple of minutes to be seated and at most 20 minutes for the food to come out. All of the food was freshly made and the coffee was heavenly! Also, the coffee only took a minute or two to bring out. The water was above average for water. My friend also agrees, this place is AMAZING! I would dine here again!

Very quiet cozy local coffee shop with nice breakfast selection. The food is not greasy nor oily. The coffee is good, but can be better. Staff is very friendly and the place is worth a visit. The service is a bit slow considering the place was kind of empty. Bathrooms were a bit dirty.

Nestled in the center of town, The Heights Cafe is one of the hidden dining gems of the city. Beating out other local chain restaurants, Chef Jeff serves some of the freshest homemade breakfast offerings in town. A must try is "The Usual," with it's thick cut bacon and eggs, but ask any of the friendly servers (or even Jeff himself) what other delicious entrees to sample. All are served in a quaint, yet modern, environment that is very local art-friendly. An added bonus during the summer months is the expansive outdoor Farmer's Market a short stroll from the entrance.
