The 15 Best Restaurants near Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama | Eater

"This cozy spot to enjoy a cup of coffee is a favorite among UA students. According to the company, when the original location, on Towncenter Boulevard, opened in 1993, it was the first coffee shop in Tuscaloosa. At the time, the owners couldn’t afford to buy matching furniture, instead decorating the room with donations and thrifted items; owner Rebekah Wanstall has since taken over the operation, but the mismatched chairs remain, a charming staple for lovers of the shop. Each location offers 40 different coffee syrups, along with assorted teas and baked from-scratch pastries, while the North River location offers full-service dinner." - Jen Bowman

Got Food?

Esthetic of the restaurant is cute, but the food is honestly just “meh”. Nothing to go ride home about. If you’re a coffee lover, you’ll be disappointed lol. My iced mocha tasted like chocolate milk, but I’m also a 3 shots espresso drinker 😛. Overall I would come back when I’m in town to visit just because options are limited, but nothing I would be dreaming about at night lol

Heritage House is always my go to for coffee. I love this location the best! The drive through is easy to get through and moves quickly. I love the food and coffee, but this location especially is so easy to get in and out of, so clean and bright, and always have great service. The restaurant week specials this summer were so good- the frozen strawberry lemonade and peach muffin- but I also love their coffee. Bama Blitz is my go to!

Heritage House is a great local spot for breakfast and lunch. There are several selections of coffee and teas. Try their BYO breakfast bowl, wonderful and filling. A variety of pastries and baked items are available as well.

Went to Heritage House with a friend - both ordered the same sandwich, but my friend didn’t want the cheese or spread on her sandwich. Barista up front says it’s totally fine - that it’ll relatively taste the same given the type of meat used on it. She rings my friend in and before I can even order - whom I am assuming is the chef walks up front and starts grilling my friend about how the sandwich won’t taste good without the spread and basically bullies my friend into changing her order. The barista kept apologizing profusely and made her a baked oatmeal instead. Not sure who this woman from the back is, but she was clearly hostile and we will not be returning.

The Belgian Waffle were amazing! My daughter had the breakfast sandwich, it was delicious as well! Water with this meal, but, leaving she got a speciality ice coffee, I got the HH special coffee, hot. Both were delicious. Love HH. Please get a location near Highway 43 and Rose Boulevard, near TCHS. Thank you for wonderful food and great friendly service at the Northriver Townes location.

It's truly a little gem. The service, the food, and the ambiance were highly pleasing. I especially love the prayer wall and decor.
