Nestled in a charming renovated clock tower in The Heights, Dandelion Cafe serves up all-day brunch classics like award-winning chicken and waffles, alongside a sun-soaked patio perfect for sipping artisan coffee.
"Dandelion Cafe’s newest Heights outpost welcomes the community to kickstart their day with freshly brewed coffee concoctions, build-your-own omelets, breakfast tacos, and “sweet stuff” such as buttermilk pancakes and blueberry lemon curd French toast sticks. Be sure to try out its competition-winning chicken and waffles — a combination of cornbread buttermilk waffles and marinated and fried boneless chicken, served with compound butter, maple syrup, honey, chili flakes, and hot sauce, with a sprinkle of powdered sugar. Diners can also visit locations in Bellaire." - Marcy de Luna, Brittany Britto Garley
"Refurbished historic buildings are rare in Houston, especially ones with excellent breakfast and some of the best fried chicken and waffles in town. But that’s exactly what the second location of Dandelion Cafe offers. The menu includes housemade sausage stuffed into extra large and extra spicy omelets, crispy chicken with spiced butter waffles, and fresh baked goods like soft chocolate chip cookies and croissants. And its location in The Heights' renovated clock tower building makes grabbing a mid-day brunch or working from home on the patio extra cute. Like you’re hanging out in a small town square instead of a few blocks from 610 traffic." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas

"This all-day breakfast cafe opened its third, largest, and most central Houston location in the Heights Clock Tower building, meaning there’s another location for diners to score its signature plate-sized pancakes, blueberry lemon curd French toast sticks, and its award-winning fried chicken and waffles. Along with its noticeably larger digs, which include a spacious outdoor patio that’s perfect for enjoying one of its coffees, Dandelion Cafe will also expand its menu to feature lunch items like paninis." - Brittany Britto Garley
