Arrived at one of my favorite coffee places not only in Lakeland but in Florida.

You can park in the small parking lot by the side of the cute yellow house where the coffee and tea are sold or on the streets that surround it. There are sitting spaces inside and out. It was a bit in the freezing side when we got there this am, so if you are sitting inside bring a sweater, it is refreshing when it is 90 out but tend to get a bit chilly after a few minutes.

The pricing is so reasonable, feels more like the 2000’s than 2022. $3.65 for a latte.,at a place down the street they charge $5.50-$6.25! Crazy! So much better here AND the folks that work here… so polite!

I thought I would get into one of those cartoon arguments with a barista of who was going to go first in a hallway! He was much too polite with his hands full, lol!!!!

My honey cinnamon latte, delish!!!!!!!!! My hubby got coffee. All coffees are made from beans from a local company called Ethos, Buddy Brew and Patriot. $1.10 an ounce. Have had them all…gets your heart racing, in a good way😘

First time visiting, and this is a great spot. They had live music on a Friday afternoon and quite the crowd. It was a pleasant surprise. I had a cold tea and blueberry muffinand both were delicious. Will definitely make this a regular spot.

Came here to wash the taste of $tarbucks out of my mouth… just look at what they handed to me in the paper cup at SB vs what was brought to my table at Hillcrest - for less! Which would you choose? Killer lattes, flat whites, cappuccinos, quiches, sweet treats, and atmosphere! Great Lakeland feel… nice indoor and outdoor seating, with a vibe that says - stay a while and hang out with friends, study, or play a board game. I’ll definitely be back.

The owner and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. They can make you just about whatever kind of coffee beverage you want as long as they have the supply. Becoming a regular is easily accomplished here due to the cozy atmosphere. The downside of this coffee shop is parking and that they don't open super early in the morning but if you have a break in your day or an unconventional work schedule this place is a great place to hang out and kill time.

Very zen-like coffee establishment with top quality and comfortable surroundings. Locally owned and operated. We enjoyed it!

My family has vacationed in a number of States and we always frequent the local coffee shops, and we are all in agreement, Hillcrest is the best all around Hometown coffee shop. The coffee is amazing, the food is top notch, and the atmosphere is very quaint. I had the Leek quiche and by far it was the best quiche I've ever eaten. We high recommend Hillcrest.

Love this place. This was one of my go-to’s as a college student. Brian, the owner, is super kind and personable. Everyone who works here is great. The coffee and tea are good and at reasonable prices too. There’s also board games, outdoor seating, and live music on Tuesdays indoors (I believe from 6-8 unless it’s changed.) It gets packed sometimes! Super cute place, highly recommend.

I just absolutely love this coffee shop. Sitting on the porch on a breezy day with a delicious coffee just can’t be beat.

I devoured this snack, best iced coffee I have had in a while. I try all the local coffee places where ever I am and this is def top 3. The aesthetic here is great and comfy and the service is top notch.
