Morty's Café -

Dining Area Amenities

 

Morty's Cafe will serve great food sourced from local ingredients, in an inviting dining space, right next to a college campus.

What is Morty's Cafe?

Morty's Cafe will be the answer to "Where is Cache Valley's best quick-serve burger?" Not only will Morty's Cafe offer a great dining experience, but it will also provide a service to Utah State University students, walking to and from classes: a health-conscious, grab-and-go meal.

In visiting other university campuses, the two founders of Morty's Cafe recognized many of them had small commercial areas just outside of campus. Culture and commerce flourished in these little pockets. Independently owned pubs, restaurants, and cafes provide a unique experience.

Utah State University is an inspiringly beautiful campus, but it has lacked this aspect of campus life. Morty's Cafe will change that. Our menu will consist of items made from local ingredients to create a unique experience and will include hamburgers, fries, salads, coffees, and baked goods. The third-floor, rooftop balcony will provide a truly awesome view of the valley. Patrons will be free to eat their food on the balcony while they take in the view. 

Your Support

The balcony will also feature live music and small private parties can be held here. The last missing piece to our venture is a comfortable and classy dining area to help make this place a little extra special.

We decided to include a friend of ours and pay him to help us design and build these dining area amenities. We need support in this last capstone project for Morty's to not only be a success, but to truly add something special to the area and to the community.

Morty's Burger Cafe Launches a Kickstarter Campaign to Involve Community

New Fast-Casual Restaurant Opens in Cache Valley Next to University Campus  

LOGAN, Utah—Morty's Burger Cafe invites the community to be involved in a Kickstarter campaign which launches 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Mar. 18, 2014. At that time, Morty's will hold a launch party at the location on the corner of Darwin Ave. and Aggie Bull-evard. All are invited. Morty's will be the closest, independently owned, eating establishment to Utah State University's campus.

“We're excited to bring a cool place to eat so close to campus,” said co-owner Ty Mortensen. “We invite everyone to get involved with spreading the word and participating in our online discussions.” 

Morty's will offer a simple menu of fresh grab-and-go items including burgers, fries, shakes, salads, coffees, hot chocolates, sodas, whole produce items, and simple breakfast items (muffins, bagels, donuts, breads, rolls).

Customers can enjoy a beautiful view of Cache Valley from the main glass-enclosed dining area, the outdoor European-style parklet with tables and chairs under trees, and the third-floor open-sky balcony. 

In line with its philosophy of providing a health-conscious menu and supporting local enterprises, Morty's is partnering with several local providers including Parker Produce, Crumb Brothers Bread, Theurer's Quality Meats, Gossner's Cheese Factory, and Caffe Ibis.
