Red Mountain Expresso - Homewood, Alabama

Girl with beanie hat and brown eyes acted inconvenienced when Im the one who had to drive back there to get what we spent over thirty dollars for lol. I left really confused at the whole thing.

So I told her the three things again when I drove back up but she was listening to a coworker and she immediately said the wrong order to them! Then acted annoyed when I told her again. I was clear as day, she just wasnt paying attention- twice! Absentmindedness is one thing, but she was RUDE.
I never write negative reviews but this was a bad way to start the day. There was no “oh, our bad!” Or “sorry about that” it was like I had asked for something off menu and then tried to pay with rolls of quarters. Just treated me like a problem customer. Left such a bad impression.

The cappuccino was standard (was really pleased with at least that) and the pimento sausage biscuit was really good. Not going to go back any time soon because I dont want that kind of interaction when I pay over thirty dollars. My bar for customer service is low, Im easy, just dont treat me like a nuisance when youre in the wrong and Im paying for food..

Great little coffee kiosk in Birmingham not far from Vulcan Park. Delicious breakfast sandwiches and amazing coffees. Service is always friendly. One of our must-do stops whenever we travel through Birmingham!

Tried this spot after mixed see the google reviews and was so disappointed. The espresso was sooo bitter! Either they’re not well trained on pulling espresso shots or they’re brewing low quality beans. The girl working was less than happy to be taking my order. Sadly I won’t be back.

Super nice employees, for the most part. I like how they know return customers' orders, and the service is generally very fast and efficient. Sometimes I'll hear them openly talk about customers, so it does make me a little paranoid that they may be critical when I pull away, but that's really my only complaint. Prices are reasonable and you get quality coffee with the convenience of drive-thru. Highly recommend.

The best drive thru coffee place in Birmingham. Their signature lattes, especially the Hollywood, are delicious. I highly recommend the pimento cheese and sausage (“pimausage” is the insider name for it) biscuit.

The only bad thing about the place is getting in and out with the traffic. The place is mostly staffed with high school and college age students, who have exceptional customer service skills.

Wish they had a few more locations around town.

Cute little spot and always convenient because you can only drive up. There are food options too! Their favorites all seem tasty but I’ve only had one so far! I will
Def be back when I’m on the go!

Didn’t mix coffee so all coffee on top and all sweet caramel and chocolate on bottom. I will give it another try though.

This place is great! Wonderful coffees, great-tasting biscuits all for a great price.
