Wanted some fuel for the drive back home from Bham last week. I'd driven by this drive through coffee shop a couple times on prior trips; it's conveniently located near a path to the interstate. They have a large menu of all kinds of coffee delights as well as teas, energy drinks, smoothies, and frappes. A smallish southern-influenced selection of breakfast and lunch items is also available (chicken salad, pimento cheese, sausage biscuits, etc). Service was friendly and quick enough and the drive through was easy to maneuver. I tried an iced Hollywood, one of their "local favorites," a latte with caramel, hazelnut, and cinnamon. The price was what you'd expect, on par with other similar locations. My drink was okay. It was pretty sweet, which I liked, but had a very strong and rather strange chemically sweet aftertaste that I didn't. I couldn't put my finger on which of the syrups/flavorings I think did it (though I'd guess caramel or cinnamon based on the flavor), but it was off-putting, leading me to a series of rather sad hopeful initial sips and then continued disappointment when the weird flavor persisted. The coffee itself seemed smooth and nicely brewed! I'm sad it didn't work out for me on this visit. I'd be down to try again sometime in the future based on the convenience and pleasant service.

Cute little drive through that offered a nice variety of options and speedy service. We got the pimento and sausage biscuit which was delicious and the snickerdoodle cookie which was too sweet for my liking so next time I will just get a latte with a single flavor and I'm sure it will be great.

I love that little pimento sausage biscuit! It's always a convenient breakfast with my drink of choice. They have many different teas, coffees (iced or hot) as well as smoothies for the kids.

Cant review on google for some reason so here I am reposting: 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 the one making mistakes and Im paying for food..

There are some good qualities and of course some bad qualities of every business regardless of what they are. Red Mountain Expresso is no different. Jasmine and I came here on Monday mid afternoon. We needed a pick me up as it was a hot day. Something cold maybe even frozen with some added Expresso would be the go to at least for me. We pulled into Red Mountain Expresso. This was our first time goring through the drive through, we did not know the menu or anything about this spot before Monday. Listen, I work in the food industry and understand that when it is close to closing time, employees will become very snappy. But since we had not been here before we were expecting at least decent customer service at the very least. When you drive up, you first sit in front of a large menu. This menu has all sorts of items from coffee, smoothies and some food options too. A lot of the food options aren't anything different then what you would find anywhere else in Homewood. Chicken salad, pimento, the southern classics. Driving up to the window we had questions for the girl working, she was impatient and quite rude. We asked questions about frapp flavors, smoothie flavors and what could be made into a frapp or not into a frapp. I get it that at this time in the day, you might find yourself on repeat telling all sorts of different people the same things over and over again. But when its not listed on the menu anywhere, of course people are going to ask questions. The employee told us that they could do vanilla, caramel, mocha or hazelnut frappes, claiming basically any flavor that they had currently they could make into a frapp. But when I asked if the could make a raspberry white chocolate as this was the flavor of the ,onto into a frapp she shot me down very quickly. This honestly confused me, since they do have that as a flavor why can't they make it into a frapp. Another thing that honestly baffled me was that none of the flavors of drinks were listed anywhere on the menu. The menu is so expansive you would think they could create a small corner for flavor choices. I winded up getting a hazelnut frapp and Jasmine got a strawberry smoothie. Both of us were quite pleased with our choices in the end. We even split a slice of chocolate cake. This cake was by far the best. It was creamy, rich and packed with flavor. This has to be some of the best chocolate cake in town and that definitely says something. Overall, customer service was terrible. But the food and beverages were great. If I find myself needing a pick me up and am passing through Homewood like I was the other day, I would go back. Maybe this was just an off day for the girl working the window.

I ordered the sausage and pimento biscuit, and OMG!! That's what I call a biscuit! It was so good! The service was also very nice and only took a minute to hand me my order. Definitely making this place a regular spot :)

Love, love, their coffee and coffee drinks, and their service with a smile. This is my go to spot- my friend loves the hot chocolate. Just be careful of your driver's side mirror!

Found this cute little place on our last pass through Birmingham. The coffee was hot and delicious. I had Maple, one of their fall flavors, and hubby went with his M.O. - Hazelnut. Both were great. The pimento cheese sausage biscuits ("Pimausages" she called them - ha!) were delicious. I don't do biscuits very often because they're always so heavy but these were so light and flakey, just wonderful. Before we hit the road we drove up the hill and checked out The Vulcan (must see!) while we ate and sipped coffee. What a nice way to start a long day. We always stay in Birmingham when we travel back & forth from Florida to St. Louis and this will definitely be one of our regular stops!

I miss this place. The coffee is soooooo good! The flavor and caffeine combination was perfect. Also the food is really good. The portion size was just right. During my next visit to Homewood, I'm definitely stopping by to get coffee and a chicken salad sandwich. Thank You for great food and awesome customer service.
