    • Q:

      What are their real hours here? They're not open when I try to come so we gave up during the beginning of the week

      A:

      The recent heavy rains caused the roof to collapse. Hopefully the landlord will get things fixed and they can reopen again.

      Great food, affordable prices and at the same time nails that old school diner feel. It's remarkable how many locals frequent Heart's Coffee Shop, and I'm certainly going to be coming more often as well.

      It's small and family owned but with plenty of parking, and the service is great. What stands out to me is how the food isn't greasy like many other diners I've been to, and the portions are big. I would highly recommend checking them out!

      They're back baby!! And we couldn't be happier for the family!!! Oh my gosh I absolutely love this spot So glad they got their roof fixed, because this place was dearly missed. Heart's is everything you want in a diner, friendly, warm, and Excellent food. Plus, they're so incredibly reasonable in pricing, it just makes sense. They are cash only, so be prepared for that but I'm honestly shocked I haven't seen this place filmed more often, because it is such a classic diner with the long sit down counter. This place is perfect for a hearty meal, a friendly lunch, or for just hitting that craving of classic diner food! Enjoy it and don't forget to bring cash!

      So nice to have them back! Great comfort food and still a great value. The Family is as welcoming as ever, and the food just makes you smile! I have been coming here since the early 80's with my older brother. Good to see little has changed- BTW STILL CASH ONLY

      Been twice since they re-opened and both times had to sit in what my husband and I have coined the cave. I hope to get a table by the window on a future visit. No frills but good food, simple breakfast menu with friendly service and a real community vibe inside. Remember cash only.

      4 pc bacon and 2 egg meal.

      The food is delicious, priced right and would definitely recommend this place for breakfast. They have such a large selection to choose from for breakfast and lunch choices.

      Two eggs, hash browns with bacon and pancakes....delicious.

      They are back after being closed for 8 months. I had almost lost hope of ever eating here again.
      Always great food and reasonable prices. Same owners, too.
      Spread the word!

      Bacon and eggs, and the best oatmeal in town.

      Hardest working family in diners. Massive portions, tasty breakfast, and super reasonable prices. Service is always super friendly and worth the wait if all the tables are full.

      Giant portions, costing not giant. Freshly made and tasty. Orange juice has an odd taste not sure what it is but it's not fresh squeezed and not a common brand flavor. I know orange juice is a big part of a ton of people's breakfast beverage that's why I mention it. They only take cash for payment so be prepared. Decent size parking lot and always a wait during primary times, but it's worth the wait. Also great even when it's 45 minutes to closing. I recommend any of the breakfast plates I haven't tried anything else.
