One of my favorite breakfasts ever! I had the orange ricotta pancakes and they were divine! I got them with eggs and bacon and it was literally one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. Everyone in the family loved their choices from the breakfast...burrito to the buttermilk pancakes. I was on vacation and found Haute Cakes through trip advisor! Amazing! I just wish I lived closer so I could go all the time.More

I loved the avocado toast, with two fried eggs atop hearty “pain campagne” bread and salad greens on the side. My friend’s chicken breast sandwich was served on a hearty whole grain bread. We ate inside -- servers were wearing masks, thank you! Arriving at...11:30 for lunch on a Tuesday, we were served right away. When we left about 12:30, there were nearly 20 people waiting in line to order.More

We were in town for the weekend from Florida and heard this was a great place for breakfast. Thought I would share feedback for you if you decide to try. Pros Food was good Pricing is fair Portions were a good size Service is counter...order and brought to the table Cons Parking is poor, very busy area Service is Ok, only 1 register so ordering takes forever unless you know the older gentleman with graying hair who pulls you out of line and seats you, He did this for 2-3 people while we were in line, Had then place the order in the togo line. Not sure why this would be allowed, guess they were his friends Overall if you have some time, the food and ambiance is worth it. Unique outdoor setting with nice decor.. Worth a try…More

The front end service is great. You stand in line, they take your order, then the food comes out wrong from the kitchen and the front end staff fixes everything and serves you with a smile. Too bad they can't get things out of the...kitchen correctly.More

The food is ok. Nothing outstanding. You have to be on line for order and for grabbing your coffee, which is a trick because you think they will bring with your food and your coffee stay in the counters ... cold buy the time you...realize.More

I had the egg sandwich, which was good, but the english muffin bun put it over the top. I would have ordered that bun as a side. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, great for dine in or just to sit and have a coffee....Speaking of coffee, their cappuccino and golden latte's were delicious!More

We really enjoyed our first visit to Haute Cakes. Pierre's Scramble with asparagus and French feta, the orange ricotta pancakes with berries and side of sausage were all perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The outdoor patio was a nice retreat. We'll definitely be back.

There is a great place for morning breakfast that is very special with super fresh everything..everything is top quality from the best bacon, to its orange ricotta pancakes..to its many other specialty pancakes and egg dishes, this place is a must do. Great made to...order coffee and self help too. Expect to wait in a order line on weekends, but so worth it. It's a trendy place for college age kids too. Sheesh, dont tell anyone you're not a local. Haha. Also some nice shops next to it to browse after.More

This is a wonderful breakfast (and lunch) spot but easily missed due to its strip location amongst medical offices and other retail establishments. Excellent food and good service....this is a great place to eat so if you have not been here...give it a try.

Fantastic food. So good that we came back the next day. Excellent coffees, delicious potatoes, amazing eggs and pancakes and some of the best bacon ever. There is often a line to get in and order and it takes a while to be served so...do not go if in a hurry.More

A local told us about Haute Cakes and we found the food to be excellent. It is Very Busy so be prepared to wait in line to order. Then you get a table. The food wait is not very long. The only downside is getting...up to get refills of coffee, etc. There is plenty of outdoor seating. It is clear this place is a local favorite. Enjoyed our breakfast very much. Definitely a fresh flavor to everything.More

This is a hidden away little breakfast spot that is always crowded. The food is very good and the service is fast. You will probably need to wait in line and then for a table. Still, it is worth it.

This hidden gem was our favorite Sunday morning breakfast spot when we lived here. Great staff, wonderful food, and an inviting, airy courtyard in which to enjoy one's meal. A great place for a cup of coffee and to read the Sunday papers.
