“Great food! I finally found a place in Waco with a BLT worth coming back for. We also had the chicken salad, Dr Pepper pulled pork, and sweet potato fries. My only complaint is they were out of crème Brûlée. Maybe next time. Highly recommend giving the Mix a try.“

“Ended up stranded in Waco, totally homeless and feeling absolutely defeated in life and these people were absolutely God sent! The food is absolutely amazing and the people don't treat you less than. I'm not longer homeless and no longer in Waco and still crave the food and the feeling those amazing people provided. Every town should have such a huge blessing of a spot!“

“We had the wonderful opportunity to eat at McDowell’s today. Our meal was perfect. We both had catfish and all the trimmings. I strongly recommend you go! Mr Mac is wonderful. We will definitely be back soon!“

“Finally found the time to drive out to try this restaurant and we are so happy we did. Wonderful place, and wonderful folks running it. It’s a little pricey, but that’s because grow all the food that they serve from my understanding. Let me tell you, the food is wonderful. Peach Sweet Tea, table bread, and Corn Fritters are a must try. Family friendly atmosphere. Very clean facility. We will be back.“

“Awesome place to meet up, have coffee and get cool books. They have great gifts too! My sister lives in Dallas and I live in Austin. We meet up in Waco and this is an awesome place to meet. They have a kid friendly children’s book area. Ella made us all our coffee and she was quick and friendly. My nephew loved Melinda the Dragon and apparently she guards the bookstore at night. We agreed I would buy him a book here every time we come to Waco.“

“I love their egg salad! They make very good lattes considering they’re not a coffee shop. The food is consistently good not outstanding. The staff usually seems like they’d rather be doing anything else but waiting on you. The wait times are ridiculous at both locations on the weekends. Yeah I go back usually for the egg salad.“

“It was our first visit, we will be back The food was great, service was amazing and hospitality like you get from those down home country cafes.“

“I had wonderful experience at Heritage Coffee today. Greeted with warm heart revealing smiles. Service was excellent! Not only did I enjoy a refreshing tea accompanied by a delicious pastry, I decided dinner was a must! It too was great!
I now plan to visit on their market day and explore more of the beauty nestled down off Halbert Lane.“

“We loved it!! Great Breakfast Tacos and prices !! Ambiance great too!!“
