    Amazing place! I've been a handful of time when I visit my parents cabin in heber. This time me and my husband had a little relaxing getaway. Of all the breakfast items my favorite by far was what I got this last visit with my husband, the chocolate chip pancakes and the seasoned potatoes. DELICIOUS!!! I would recommend! The small town vibes and friendly staff really made the visit even more cozy

    Looking for a small town breakfast spot? Then this is the place. The staff were so friendly and talkative and made you feel just at home. I ordered the pancake breakfast with normal sweet cream pancakes and it was a big helping of food! The pancakes weren't as crispy as I like but everything was good. Definitely will come back to experience the small town feel of this breakfast spot. Also, there are bathrooms and they are clean! There is a good amount of seating as well.

    BEWARE: RACIST!!!!! The only reason why this place has any stars is because our waitress was a sweet lady. We walked in and immediately everybody started staring at us and giving us dirty looks because of our friend who is brown. Our waitress took 40 minutes to get to us (a bit of leeway since she had told us immediately that it was backed up and it would take some time) but nobody else came to take our order in the time being. She came back to our table and was surprised we weren't served at all. We ordered the the corned beef hash (not good), the chocolate pancake after being recommended (entirely too sweet for me, but my boyfriend enjoyed it), and the country omelette (very good). If you are a person of colour please do not come here, stay safe in Heber and Payson.

    Excellent all around. Waitress was great and friendly, food came out quick & it was delicious. The house special is the breakfast pot pie and it did not disappoint. Our waitress recommended adding a little AZ gunslinger green jalapeño pepper sauce to it and it was a great complement to an already awesome dish

    This place is definitely one of the best breakfast spots in Heber! The service was great, everyone is so friendly and welcoming! Small town country friendly vibes, with a homey and comfortable interior! The food is great too, it seems like everything was a hit on the menu! Only thing is the price was a bit expensive in my opinion! Everything is definitely made with love

    Is the outdoor seating dog friendly?

    Yes there is outdoor seating and I'm assuming dog friendly since it's right up front on the open.

    I love discovering coffee shops when on road trips. I discovered Sanders last year when I was…read morepassing through Heber on one of my many road trips to Northern Arizona. I already had a couple of favorites in Payson that I enjoyed stopping at. But Sanders quickly joined my list of places to stop by. Sanders is owned by a couple and operates out of a small shop right off the highway. Sanders Coffee + Co. has all your basic espresso and coffee drinks plus a few of their own creations. They also have a variety of pastries, shake and smoothies. I typically order a latte and it is always made perfect for my long drives. Sanders uses Press Coffee beans and I have always been a fan of their products. I have only ordered a pastry with my drink on a couple of occasions. The Malasadas and Cinnamon Rolls are pretty good. The shop itself is cozy with couches and tables to relax at and a few merchandise items for purchase. The parking lot can be tight on busy weekends. Overall, this is high quality coffeeshop to stop at if you are passing through Heber-Overgaard. The staff is friendly and I always enjoy supporting a local business. The order line can be a little long on busy days.

    With all the great reviews, I was expecting more but Sanders ended up falling short. We stayed…read moreovernight in the area, so I stopped at Sanders twice during the trip. Inside is modern and clean, but their staff lacked any personality. First time I tried a cinnamon roll and their blueberry muffin. It was nice of them to ask if I wanted the pastries warmed up, they use a microwave to do so. The cinnamon roll was delicious, nice buttery bottom and perfect amount of icing. The blueberry muffin was a miss for me, not enough sweetness in the batter so the muffin was very bland and lacked much blueberry flavor. For coffee, I tried their local and squatch from their specialty lattes. Their espresso was smooth and not bitter, but the latte itself was lackluster. They both did not have enough syrup, very mild in flavor and mostly espresso forward. If you are looking for bold flavors, you won't get that here.

We arrived around 12:30 on a Saturday. It was pretty busy but we were seated promptly and service was excellent throughout the meal. My wife had the chicken sandwich with a side of sweet potato tots. She loved both. I had the Southwest Omelette which consists of shredded pork, green chile and jack cheese added to a three egg omelette. Delicious!

The first thing that caught my eye was a novel Steak and Egg dish that included a six oz. Sirloin steak with "loaded hash brown potatoes," that's hash browns with a load of onions, bell peppers, and cheese. This was a delicious side complete with two eggs my style and choice of toast. There was even more but I passed on the bacon, it was just too much. My wife opted for the all veggie omelet (which of course she couldn't finish) with all it fixings which we took home. One of the highlights of our service was the young waiter, Owen, who had been added to the staff recently. He was anxiously trying to be so helpful it was a joy to be one his first "customers." He of course getting help from is fellow staffers especially Debbie our favorite. In addition I would be remiss if I didn't mention the fullly appointed bakery available to us as we checked out. There is was with home baked brownies, pies, and coffee cake to tempt us as we left. I could go on and on but you get the picture. Treat yourself to the Ponderosa Cafe when in our town, you won't regret it!
