Hart & Soul Cafe is a cozy spot for brunch. The interior has a rustic and country feel to it with…read moreplenty of seating for a town like Hickory. As for the type of food, there is a lot of typical Southern food on the menu. The service was great! The cashier was extremely friendly and brought wonderful energy to the restaurant. I got the Breakfast Burrito with Grits. I was not impressed by the burrito, unfortunately. I felt like it needed more flavor, either in the meat or elsewhere. I also think more cheese, specifically inside the burrito rather than on the outside, would have made it taste better too. Moreover, the burrito was soggy! I was not a fan of that. The grits were also a bit too watery for me. I had to add salt and pepper, along with the butter given to me in my order, to give it some depth. While I think that this is a lovely local restaurant, the food could be better. I would give it a 2.5/5 stars if I could.

Oh and one extra piece of Texas toast for $1.99. Total almost $19 for no more than $1.50 worth of buffet trash food

A…read morefriendly waitress brought our carafe of coffee and while Mrs. K. decided to order from the menu, I started on the buffet. Before I was back with my first plate, her French Toast arrived. A great selection of proteins on the steam table and a nice variety of the classic breakfast offerings. A big plate of scrambled eggs and I was able to add cheese sauce and mushrooms on one side of my plate. On the other, some sausage links (very overdone) and some sliced ham (extremely salty). Lots of other high carb options available including biscuits, pancakes, French toast sticks, cheese and plain grits, home fries and tots. Something that might have been fried chicken livers and also some pieces of fried chicken. A dessert bar with banana pudding, jellos and fruits was also available. The place is clean and the service was great, clearing dirty dishes and restocking coffee creamer. A satisfying meal for sure. [Review 542 of 2026 - 4637 in North Carolina - 25724 overall]

Eye rolls when I asked for one thing. The main problem was the credit card charge. It's for credit cards only. I told the woman at the front that I was paying with a debit card. She added the credit charge. This is, according to Visa, fraudulent. I told her l what I was told, that Visa said that you can't charge a credit charge on a debit purchase. She dismissed my comment, saying "that's the way it's set up here." The reason is set up that way is that they set it up that way. Also, She pulled my check away so that I wouldn't notice the difference. I love a local business. The food is good, and it's a much loved institution here. I don't appreciate someone stealing from me. Pay cash, or eat elsewhere.

Of course the current iteration of the MFG doesn't look at all the same inside and the owners/managers are different but that small town, community centered feel is still there. I was recently back in Mo. Falls and visited three time with my dad. He's there once a day anytime the door is open! So you can say that he's more than a regular patron. Service was relatively quick given how busy they were with those eating in and the stream of take out orders. Cash preferred it seems but cards are accepted. Here you'll find rotating daily specials on the dry erase near the door. You can find the daily vegetables on that board as well. Whether you are getting a veggie plate or a daily special you'll want to check the board to see all your options. I generally just take a picture when coming in so that I can read back over after checking out the menu. One side of the menu is breakfast and the other is lunch. Is this a change your life restaurant? Nope but they can't all be. :) Is this a place where you should stop if you want a homey, friendly feel and a bite to eat, sure is!
