Baba Java Coffee - Hoover

This is honestly my favorite coffee shop in Birmingham --- the team there is absolutely fabulous and their brews are delicious (seriously, I've tried 4 different featured drinks, and they've all been amazing). If you're looking for a place to work, the atmosphere here is comfortable, wifi is great, & there are plenty of places to plug in your laptop. My husband and I are both small business owners, so the fact that they are also so big on supporting other small businesses means a lot!

Excellent coffee and overall experience! I highly recommend trying Baba Java’s coffee!

This has been the best tasting coffee I've had in the last few years. Ultra smooth and flavorful. Not too bitter and not too sweet. An absolutely enjoyable coffee and experience in store. I especially loved the honey habanero. You won't regret coming here.

Best Iced Latte I've ever had. I drink alot, I mean ALOT, of coffee. The quality, flavor, and freshness of the espresso they use is second to none. I strongly recommend giving Baba Java a try. Will continue to go back!!

They always make my visit enjoyable and are very knowledgeable in explaining their coffee options and roasts to me. I had a Nitro today and it was the frothiest, smoothest coffee I’ve ever had. Their bagged coffee is also great for brewing at home. I have brewed it fresh for events at my church and at home. They are the only coffee shop in Birmingham that does Turkish coffee (to my knowledge) and they’re worth checking out for that alone!

Went 3 days in a row during their soft launch week and it was fantastic. Brad, Wendi, and the whole crew are fantastic! The coffee is consistent and delicious. I highly recommend the Yemen and Ethiopia roasts. The location is super inviting and comfortable. Also, as someone who works remotely, I really appreciate the adequate WiFi and the abundance of power outlets and USB A and C outlets for device charging. A very nice touch!

Welcoming baristas, delicious coffee, and elegant seating vibes. I come here about 3 times a week and always leave satisfied. Their signature Honey Cinnamon Latte and special creamy cappuccino is top notch. Highly recommended.

Great little local coffee shop with friendly people! I've been back a bunch of times and this place is always great! Their coffee, snacks, and service are top notch!

I absolutely LOVE Baba Java!!!! Honestly the best coffee on the planet earth. Plus they have the friendliest and kindest service! They really take to heart their tag line “Excellence from Farm to Cup”. As everything on their menu and in their service is nothing less than Excellence!

From the perspective of COVID, my wife is pregnant so we are taking every precaution. While the store was a little bit busy with lots of patrons not wearing masks, the moment the employees saw us walk in wearing masks, they put on masks themselves which helped us feel much more at ease and really honored.
The store and bathrooms are very nice and clean.

Apart from COVID: The employees were super friendly and knowledgeable about their drink selections, and, I'll be honest, we absolutely loved the drinks. Some of the best London fog teas and dirty chai lattes we have ever had. Highly recommended.
