A Hidden Gem in Montgomery – Hiltop Coffee I’ve lived in Montgomery for 25 years, and I can’t believe this is my first time at Hiltop Coffee! The coffee is absolutely delicious, and the cozy seating inside creates a relaxing atmosphere. It’s a bit hidden, so many might not know it’s here—even though it’s been open for three years! Every true coffee lover in Montgomery should give this place a visit. So glad I discovered it. Thank you, Hiltop Coffee!

Enjoy the special holiday evening event, in conjunction with several hand-selected bars/pubs across the USA who celebrate with special beverages and ceramic mugs, which are available for purchase. This event with hand-selected bars is a fundraiser for an organization that assists with low vision. Great service.

Yummy Latte, Chill Atmosphere, Friendly Staff We recently moved to the Gump, and I've been looking for great coffee shops. I came here for a meeting, and it was great. I'm not a big coffee drinker and asked the barista what to get. He told me to get their seasonal special, which was delicious!

Cute little hole in the wall coffee shop. Excellent music selection and a wide variety of coffee choices! I was specifically impressed they had Cafe Su Da (Vietnamese Coffee). Plus a bar! Highly recommend.

It's probably one of my new favorite places! Very calm atmosphere, exceptional service, friendly/helpful staff, delicious coffee! They have outdoor and indoor seating. I ordered the Cookie Butter Latte and a peanut butter cookie (both were delicious). My friends ordered a cheddar jalapeno biscuit and a lemon poppy seed muffin (they're go-to favorites). Update: I've been a few times since my first review and this place always wins! Today I ordered the pecan pie latte (10/10!!) and had a colorful blueberry bagel.

Good ambience for coffee, wine, or cocktails. It’s a great place to meetup with friends. It has ample seating inside, I saw a few laptops opened. It’s dog friendly too. Everything is reasonably priced. Stop by if you are near The National Memorial for Peace and Justice museum, that’s how we found this true hidden gem.

It was evening when we came upon The Pubic House in Montgomery, Alabama—though time seemed to blur there, the way it does when stories are being told and the glass is half-full and the hush of the day’s end gives way to something looser, livelier. The sun had bowed its head behind the city’s shoulder, and we stepped into that dim, golden light that bars wear like memory—where wood and whiskey speak louder than clocks ever could. Inside, the air was thick with old songs and good laughter. Brick walls that held heat and history, floors that had felt the weight of boots and dancing alike. It was not polished or prim, no. It was lived in, the way a favorite novel is—thumbed and dog-eared and rich with the fingerprints of nights that had mattered. The drinks were poured like sermons—measured, steady, full of truth. A pint here, a cocktail there, maybe something neat to mark the kind of night that needed no reason. The bartender didn’t serve, he delivered, with the ease of someone who’d heard it all and still chose to listen. You felt known before you gave your name. And the food—God, the food came hot and honest. Burgers stacked with defiance, fries that crackled when they landed, plates that didn’t aim for pretty but landed right in the soul. The kind of eating that makes you lean back and loosen your belt and laugh like you earned it. But it was more than just a meal, or a drink, or a place to duck from the weather. The Public House was a shelter of sorts—a place where strangers tilt their heads toward each other and speak like old friends. A place where time stutters, and the jukebox tells the truth better than the news ever could. So if you find yourself in Montgomery, wandering and wanting not just food or drink but fellowship, let your feet take you there. To The Public House, where the stories hang in the air, the bourbon is warm, and the night stretches out like a song you never want to end.

Such great drinks and brownie! Honey ordered the iced lavender latte and I was glad I stole a sip. My iced Salt Shakerato though was the true winner of the day.

In Montgomery, and decided to check out Hilltop Public House, and man is it awesome! They have a great beer selection, something for everyone’s taste, a great liquor selection, tv’s, food, an extensive coffee menu, and it’s just an all around great vibe! It’s the kind of place you can go and get a cup of coffee, watch a game, read a book, or chill at the bar! The service was outstanding as well, especially Tiffany! If you are in the area do yourself a favor and check them out!
