Was 4th in line and it was soooo slow with 4 girls working. None of the specials drinks have prices. Ordered the a drink called Front Porch? The girl forgot to enter the strawberry shortbread cookies I got so she had to start another order for me to tap with my card and then she gave herself a tip! Wow, definitely didn't authorize that. $6.16 Waited 20min for my drink and come to find out, they were calling Hannah for my drink. Yikes.

unpopular opinion alert…read more People rave about this place so my expectations were set pretty high I won't lie. Unfortunately my go to order is an iced latte with skim milk and they don't have skim. I was hoping to get a little treat to go with my coffee but they were all piled on top of each other in the display case which made them look really unappealing. I am not talking croissants on croissants or muffins on muffins, I mean everything on top of each other which also makes me feel like options for people with allergies may be limited. The staff were really kind and the barista suggested 2% or almond milk as alternative options for me which was very kind but just not my favorite. The interior and outdoor seating are very cute. They have mini prints and larger prints for sale. I really think the larger prints would make a great locally made present! Ultimately, I don't think this is my spot due to dietary restrictions but it might be good spot for you.

I was excited to learn about a traditional bakery like the ones I grew up around in Jersey. I was…read morealso surprised to see pecan pie, which looked good at first sight. The flavor was definitely there, which I appreciated, but the crust was a little tough. I also grabbed a couple of brownies. They were good, but I was disappointed by the presentation, tightly wrapped and squeezed into plastic wrap. I came to Alabama expecting Southern bakery quality, Southern prices, and Southern hospitality. Instead, the brownies gave me a middle of the road presentation at Jersey prices. Would I go back? Now that's the question. I would give the pecan pie another chance, but hopefully with a crust that is a little more cooperative.

Finally made it to Baba Java Coffee, and I wish I hadn't waited so long! I had the cappuccino and…read moremy friend got the latte, both delicious. The cappuccino was stronger than what I usually go for, but smooth, not bitter at all. The ambiance is really nice, mostly tables and chairs with one cozy area that has softer seating. A few people were working on laptops, so it seems like a good spot to post up for a bit. Parking was easy too. Will definitely be back!

Having opened in 2019, Baba Java entered the area's coffee shop scene at a time when coffee for…read moremost local residents was still associated with one single chain. This was the first location of Baba Java and has since expanded through the city. Ran my Omani entrepreneurs, this little coffee shop became quite popular over the years. The staff working here are mostly teenagers or college students, who are very attentive and professional despite their young age. The owner clearly picked out incredible folks to be here who make Baba Java feel both welcoming and well kept. The interior of the space is fairly basic coffee shop design, but admittedly, a little bit dated in 2026 and lacks the unique vibe of some other independent coffee shops. Window views facing the strip mall parking lot don't create much of an ambiance either. With that said, design is not the main thing to come here for. The coffee is excellent and priced very reasonably, offering a great value for an establishment of this sort. There is easy to access WiFi and an overall feeling of being welcomed. A solid little coffee shop that allows customers to support some local business owners instead of a big chain.

A special thank you to Lee Wideman, whom I had the pleasure of meeting at an event in Birmingham. He didn't recommend Baba Java because he works there--he recommended it because he genuinely believes in it. After visiting the very next day, I completely understood why. Great coffee is always worth it, and this place is absolutely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Birmingham. Thank you, Lee, for the recommendation!

We ended up moving to a booth in the back, which was more comfortable and a little warmer. It does get loud as the day goes on, so I recommend bringing headphones.

I ordered one of their Valentine's favorites, the Everybody Loves Raymond with oat milk, and my friend got the Wedding Cake. My drink was so good -- definitely a new favorite! The inside was also very nice with a great atmosphere if you need a place to study or work. It had a comfortable, productive vibe without being too loud. Looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu!

Today i sat in my car ready for someone to take my order, sat there for 5 mins, no one came on, even when i tried to saying hello??? another 5-6 mins to get to the window again bc service is so slow and per usual it's some kid sitting on the window (which i think is gross) who had no clue she never took my order. I gave my order there and waited. Got my food but drove off without my coffee. Had to park and go in. The place completely empty except for the 2 girls working there. Again one girl sitting on the window - love it when they have shorts on and are big girls...great professional look for the company. Coffee was already cold. i can't do it anymore. The high prices, unsanitary conditions and wait time are too much. I don't need to be this stressed out on my way to work. It's too bad bc i live close by and met hoping it would get better but it hasn't. I will not be back. Based on lack of management i don't even expect a return email back.

They also have some really good snacks, and their chicken Caesar wrap is definitely a 10/10! The owner is hilarious, super friendly, and always makes great conversation. You can tell he really creates a welcoming environment, and honestly, that makes you want to keep coming back over and over again. Definitely a hidden gem if you're looking for good coffee, good food, and a laid-back atmosphere!

The latte was good, and I'll definitely be back to try that specialty cappuccino. I also ventured out front to Huey Sandwich Shop, a food truck set up on a bed of turf with plenty of seating and a covered awning. Such a cute space! I, however, was anything but cute while eating my sandwich I don't want to speak too soon since this place is still new, but the hot Italian sandwich might be the best sandwich I've had in the Birmingham area so far. The bread, sautéed onions and peppers, and whatever sauce they put on it took it completely over the top. I also love that they're open for Saturday lunch! It's surprisingly hard to find good lunch spots around here on weekends. Can't wait to watch this business grow and flourish!
