Chicken and waffles what is today for and the biscuits and gravy left nothing to be desired I highly recommend this place .“

“Tiger Bay Cafe and Battle Cat Coffee Bar are located in the same building but SEPARATE businesses / counters inside. Be aware so you that you wait in the correct line. Once you get past that confusion and find the counter in the back, the menu is small but appetizing. Not many substitutions but that is fine. Wait was about 20 mins for two sandwiches, but my wife and I both found them tasty and worth the wait!Good meal and glad we stopped in.“

“Such a cute little spot! I got the Philly Cheese Steak Omelet (no peppers cause I’m a baby) and they loaded it down with onions and mushrooms to make up for the no peppers. OMG so delicious! The omelet was so fluffy and delicious and the steak, mushrooms, and onions were seasoned so nice! The biscuits with gravy are delicious!!! I could have gotten just that and been happy too lol. Everyone here is so sweet too. They greet everyone like they’ve known them for years (which they probably have as they knew almost every one by name!)Definitely will be back. Yum!“

“Mustang Cafe is a great place. They cook their chicken tenders with love and also serve them with love. Love is the important ingredient! The servers took their time to get to know me as a regular and know what I want right when I walk in now.“

“I called to place a ToGo order late morning. I could tell from the background noise they were busy. The girl who took my order, was very nice, did not rush to get me off the phone, read my order back to me..I picked up 20 minutes later. It was packed, people were waiting for seats to open up. As the girl was bagging my food, I looked around at the ENTIRE crew working there, and they were top notch, (organized, helpful to each other, uniforms were neat and not sloppy, very nice, smiles on their faces). I couldn't help.but think, is this being filmed for a WH training video...lol) This was such a refreshing experience to see this in a workplace. Thank You!!!“

“We came in at 3:59 & discovered they close at 4! We ordered quite a lot to go, of course. They were all so nice and did not hurry us at all. We had a 2+ hour drive home and ate under a shade tree in the parking lot. The food was excellent, as usual. We will return the next time we are in Asheville. Love their soup, sandwiches, and breakfast bowls. The restaurant is always clean.“

“Employees were really friendly and the cook was great! The food came out perfect for a Waffle House. My daughter and I enjoyed ourselves. It was a very pleasant experience.Kid-friendliness: My daughter loved watching the cook make the food in front of us. The food is definitely kid-friendly.“

“This particular location I usually go to currently has three specific people who are the reason I keep coming back. I know if see Rebecca and/or Royce and/or Zach working, it's going to be worth my while and every dollar I spend. They're literally such rockstars every time I pull up, and no matter the kind of day I've had I know it'll be even better after I see them.Vegetarian options: If you're an "ovo-lacto" vegetarian who's not pious about what's "healthy" or concerned about cross contamination with animal fats, you should be fine here. Just don't forget to tell the server no meat, and they'll understand.Parking: Ample handicap parking, directly next to the building.Wheelchair accessibility: The doors are a bigger challenge than I care to see for wheelchair users to enter the building, but I'm optimistic that the staff would be happy to help anybody who actually struggled with the doors anyway for any reason. I'm currently able-bodied so I wouldn't really know.“
