Really an awesome experience! It was calm and comfortable inside. Outside seating however inside was super comfortable and nice to be out of the heat. The owners were friendly and welcoming. I loved my iced chai and so did my son! Absolutely delicious the coffee cake was out of this world and I'm not a huge fan of coffee cake in general. It was warmed a little and had some butter on top which made it simply incredible!!!! The cherry vanilla smoothie was yummy and the coffee was decent. The absolutely best part of our experience was the veggie omelette! I couldn't have wanted a better omelette! It had spinach and onions and asparagus with some peppers and cheese. I got the three eggs and easily ate it up. It came with two pieces of delicious toast and yummy jelly. Also the potatoes were flavorful too! Super happy with my experience here and I'm happy to return business! Note- the outside is beautiful- so many cool plants and succulents. Bark park in back to bring your four legged friends! read more

Went to Heska's because I heard the owners were retiring and moving away soon, so I had to try it ASAP! I ordered two sandwiches, the turkey cranberry and the Mongolian beef, and both were made to perfection! Unfortunately I didn't get a pic of the turkey cranberry (because I was too hungry) but I did get a pic of the Mongolian beef, and they were both so delicious! Both of the sandwiches were toasted to perfection on a roll and served with a generous amount of protein and filling. The restaurant itself was very homey and cozy, you can tell that this place has a lot of love and thought put into it and that they're running this business out of pure joy. I highly recommend to go try it out before they're gone for good! read more

I love this place. The bread is so good. I am sad that they are retiring, because I really enjoy their food. They are very nice, and always make an effort to get to know you. I recommend their tuna sandwich or their turkey sandwich. read more

Cozy and cute with great sandwiches. The lady was so nice and we really liked the sea shanty vibes.

Nice small comfy coffee/sandwich cafe located right off the blvd. Really good coffee flavors and food choices for a little place. I liked the atmosphere as it was very calming inside. I had a breakfast sandwich and liked the choice of a whole or 1/2 order and those potatoes that I ordered were really good. Service was very nice and friendly and I look forward to returning here. read more

Had the most bizarre interaction here today. The menu said oriental chicken salad $8.99 so I ordered that. To the left of the menu it says add $2 to menu items for all prices so I was expecting to pay $10.99. She rang me up for $13.99 and when I asked why she just became irate and said, "Get out of here I don't want to piss you off,"...it was completely out of nowhere and we were taken aback considering I just asked the price. They also have two filthy little dogs running around inside the restaurant. read more

Whenever I'm back in Redlands visiting my parents, I make a trip to Heskas for my usual: Mocha Frappe with the Spicy Mongolian Beef and Oriental Salad combo. This time I took my dog Yuki with me for a lunch date at their Bark Park. Joe, Heska's husband, was super sweet and went out of his way to accommodate Yuki with a water bowl and a Milkbone. I used to study inside by the window years ago, and the coziness of the Shack extended nicely to the backyard as well. Thanks for all the years of delicious sandwiches and Mocha frappes! read more

Love the owners. They are very kind and respectful individuals, and are great listeners! I was running late to work one day and called ahead to order, and they had it all ready for me when I got there. Highly recommend! read more

We found Heska's on Yelp and visit twice last week - once on our way up to Big Bear and then on the way down. We really enjoyed meeting Heska (we discovered that she was a nutritionist and her passion for good food. We really enjoyed our sandwiches, a tuna melt and a Mongolian BBQ on fresh baked rolls. Yum! On our way home, we popped in for a mocha which was delicious. This is our "go to" place whenever we go to Big Bear. Thank you, Heska. read more

Great sandwiches. They have been in business forever. My recommendation is to try the Philly cheesesteak.

Wonderful place, owners are wonderful, great food and coffee. Also has a beautiful garden in the back.

As soon as the lady started taking my order, she was giving me attitude, I was about to walk out right then and there, I should have. She was not nice and welcoming at all, basically to the tone of "what do you want?". She seemed stressed, but don't take it out on the customer. I ordered a grilled ham and cheese, half chicken salad sandwich, and a large iced coffee. I had checked the menu online before hand, the order should have been around $24 after taxes, I was charged $29. I thought it was strange but figured I'd pay and then look at the receipt. I asked the lady for a receipt but she had gone to the back to keep working on orders, and she said okay she'd give me one. It took about 30 minutes to get my order, the food tasted really good though (which is why I gave 2 stars and not 1). Portion size was really small, and I'd rather go somewhere else with a bigger portion size. Right before leaving, I asked for an itemized receipt again, and she basically said she can't give me one because it's been too long since the order was placed. I didn't want to argue, so I just walked out and ate the $5 loss. Would not come again. read more

Heska's is such a quaint sole proprietor restaurant! And the owners are hands-on involved and caring. We sat at the south end of the restaurant; it was like having our own private dining room (see pic of our view - very homey). On this visit we had the Beef Dip and Western Omelet. The Beef Dip was quite good. There was an ample amount of sliced beef, which was quite tender and flavorful by itself. The grilled onions added the right amount of tang. The Au Jus was quite a bit more than beef drippings - very rich, the right amount of saltiness and approached a Demi-Glace. The bread soaked up the Au Jus appropriately. We also had a cup of Chicken Vegetable soup. Overall, the soup was okay. It had a mild flavor, yet the chicken was cooked well and the chunky vegetables were firm. The Western Omelet was okay. The egg portion of the omelet was on the thin side, there was ample cheese and ham. The ham was quite flavorful and melded well with the cheese. The country potatoes looked great but lacked flavor and salt (salt can always be added). The salsa was particularly flavorful and had a good amount of heat. We enjoy Heska's and will be back. read more

We were coming back from Big Bear and discovered Heska's Sugar Shack and what a lucky find!! We had the most delicious Monday brunch our veggie omelettes were perfectly cooked,the homemade country potatoes were amazing, and the homemade bread is to die for. Not only was our food delicious, Heska and Joe made us feel right at home ( I felt like helping her with the dishes) and we had a wonderful conversation with them. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend Heska's if you're in the area. ps. Heska's homemade salsa is the bomb!!!! read more

The atmosphere is strange. Dirty tables and general uncleanliness. The man is always watching Fox News. ALWAYS. I've been here multiple times since 2014 since the food is good. Another review mentioned seeing the man touch food with his bare hands and I would believe it 100%. I don't think I can come back here without feeling grossed out. read more

Super cute support your small business. This is a little place don't miss it.. husband and wife run this little shop. Bread is homemade daily for the sandwiches. Breakfast and lunch served here while I was there the place was empty but they had lots of phone orders. Hospitality's here is awesome super nice owners. I had coffee which was locally grown and freshly ground which tasted great. Our next visit will be for breakfast biscuits and gravy. Stay tuned for the update. read more

Thank you to my bestfriend for showing me this cute mom & pops shop after our hike in Forest Falls. We decided to sit in the Bark Park area since she brought her dog, but the service was absolutely amazing! The owner brought out our food to us with the biggest smile & introduction. The food was soo good too, idc what anyone says & good portions for the price. Anyone that gives a bad review is either lying or hating cause this place is too genuine to not like tbh. read more

Hidden gem. I would have never stopped at this location if I did not yelp it looking for a coffee shop on our way home from Big Bear. It was the perfect place for a quick to go breakfast which consisted of coffee, bagels and blueberry and banana nut muffins. There were many other options to chose from. This will definitely be our pit stop to and from Big Bear to support this quaint cafe. It's a home converted into a cute restaurant/cafe. Parking available in front or back of location. read more

This little gem was such a fun lunch surprise for me. It feels like you have walked into a relative's home. I didn't know what to expect...and now I can't wait to return. The owners were so warm and friendly to us. The vegetarian sandwich was delicious, and I haven't stoped thinking about that Dirty Chai!!!!! It is a must!!!! If you are lucky.....you might get a special concert while there!!!! Watching the owners have a little jam session was so special. You can tell how much they love their business, and how much fun they have while working. Dog friendly too :) read more

Driving through town randomly and saw this beautiful coffee shop decided on a whim to stop. I could not have been more happy to stop and meet Heska and enjoy a wonderful chai tea and sandwich. Everything was amazing, but most off all Heska. I find it rare when I catch myself thinking I'm placed at a location for a purpose, we were today. Heska was so inviting and a joy hearing stories and feeling like I was home. Thank you for a wonderful experience, we will find a way back to this wonderful Sugar Shack. Don't skip out on this spot a true Jem read more
