From an original location in Essex Square to the tripled space of Town Center, and into the downtown Tuscaloosa location across from Hotel Indigo, Heritage House Coffee and Tea tries to fit with its surroundings.
So the upcoming Heritage House, under construction at the entrance to the Townes of North River subdivision, will be slightly more upscale, though still following the Tuscaloosa-born business s cozy aesthetic of vintage and mismatched furnishings, where customers settle in to enjoy made-from-scratch pastries, and a cornucopia of coffees and teas.
With construction expected to be complete by summer 2021, the new Heritage House will be slightly smaller than the other two locations Essex Square closed for the move to Town Center, and the contract to operate a smaller spot within Alberta s Gateway lapsed last year and designed with an English pub feel, said owner Rebekah Wanstall.
