I was in Inglewood and decided to stop by this coffee shop to get some food and work. I tried their Matcha latte ! They even added strawberry to it, which was a great twist. I also got a hash brown breakfast bowl, which was also really tasty. Overall, everything was great. The only downside was that the Wi-Fi was down on the day I was there. Also outside of the bar seating there aren’t much outlets.

Great place! Friendly and good customer service. The burrito was great for a quick snack. The strawberry matcha is as good as I was told. The strawberry overnight oats were a bit too sweet for my taste but outside of that cute spot in the Inglewood area. The music vibes are great.

I loved the atmosphere and the decor.. I ordered the chicken sandwich which was really good except the bun was a tad cold, could've been toasted. In addition, I got a medium caramel latte with oat milk which was super delicious. All together my total was $26 which was 😲 a little shocking. Had the sandwich come with a side it would have been understandable but I feel like it was a little bit overpriced. Other than that the staff was super polite and it was a nice vibe.

Great vibes, great food, great coffee. Staff is courteous and friendly. Parking is a bit difficult, but not impossible. Still, it's worth the effort. Go there and chill out.

Loved the vibe of this 2 storey cafe restaurant! Pros: Crispy chicken sandwich!!!! MUST HAVE There are very comfy work spaces with free WiFi. The food is so good and their limited menu is healthy and refreshing. I had the lavender latte which was perfect, just the way I like it and the baristas are gracious enough to make amends based on your preferences. I sat at the bar counter which, to me, has the best view of the place and great company too. I'm definitely coming here again!

The vibe here is EVERYTHING!! who needs Starbucks when you have great food, great music, sweets and coffee right here. I ordered the Bangin breakfast sandwich and it was absolutely delicious!! The egg was fried to perfection, the brioche bun was soft and buttery, the cheese had that perfect melt and I opted for the beyond sausage patty which was a great choice. For my meat lovers you can choose between a turkey sausage patty or bacon and this sandwich also comes with a spicy mayo*chefs kiss*. The service was just ok, the cashier was a little dry but nothing major. Since the holidays are just about here, the Christmas decor was super cute and they have a holiday latte to keep you in the Christmas spirit, it's the Sweet Potato Latte (not pictured). This drink screamed Christmas and was super good. The only thing that I didn't care for was that the drink itself is pretty thick and the sweet potato puree could have been blended up a bit more. I am not a fan of puree chunks coming through my straw with every sip. However, the flavor profile was great and it was a very delicious latte (definitely give it a try). Hilltop has a lot of great workspace options between bar seating, couches, booths and open space seating...all of these options are very comfy and cozy. There's meter parking available if you want to park near the coffee shop. I parked in a near by shopping center and walked to the restaurant, it was free and I got my steps in too( who doesn't like a two-fer😁). Nonetheless, Hilltop was awesome and I will definitely return. It was a great way to start my busy day that was ahead of me, swing by if you're in the Inglewood area.

Beautiful coffee house with peaceful, quiet ambiance. My daughter ordered a lemonade and strawberry/ banana toast, my husband a pistachio latte and banging breakfast burrito, I had a banging burrito and a lavender latte. Everything was absolutely delicious, I was not expecting that amount of flavor from the coffee. The notes of lavender were so soft, tasty but not overly sweet. The breakfast burrito was so fresh, the eggs were cooked to perfection. My daughter's toast was also really good, it was topped with cream cheese and honey. My husband's latte was also so surprisingly good. The young lady at the register was super friendly and polite, and portions are pretty good-sized.

Yalllzz the beignets. Sure the early grey tea was smooth and the macha tea was strong and refreshing... but the beignets are where it is at! Staff was friendly and accommodating , even though we got there 45 min before close and they didn't rush us at all, although we were sure to leave on time. Great vibes and the upstairs view is pretty cool. A nice musical vibe going on but definitely a place you could get some work done or have an intimate meeting/collaboration session.

The cutest coffee shop! Nestled close to market street Inglewood. This is a go to spot for a meet up, a meeting, or if you need to get some work done in peace. Such a great vibe. We had a work status here and used one of the upstairs tables. We ordered food and coffee prior to our status. OMG! Let me tell you, their avocado toast is amazing. We waited about 10 minutes for our food, there were no lines, but the place is a go to spot that everyone seems to love so it was busy. The staff was super nice, the place was clean, and if you ask me if I will be returning...... of course I will! 10/10! When I go back I will try something new on the menu, but I will be getting my avocado toast again. Sooooo good!

wow, i am in LOVE with this shop. i've always heard about hilltop but never got to visit. but this morning i went and it was an amazing experience. first off, the place is huge and very tall when you go inside. there's a second floor and tons of seating. we ordered a matcha, matcha-chata, yuzu lemonade, beignets, & breakfast sandwiches. the service was fine, nothing special but nothing bad, it was okay. they could be friendlier to their customers. but they were very very quick with our drinks and food which we loved! the matcha-chata was absolutely delicious. the yuzu lemonade was a bit too sweet but once the ice dissolved it become better. the breakfast sandwich was sooo good as well. lastly, the beignets were not the best in my opinion, we just got the regular ones but there's also a nutella option which maybe i should've got. the atmosphere is very welcoming and there is tons of window lighting. parking is fine, there's a bunch of street parking. hilltop is located right on the corner of the street so it's very easy to find. i definitely want to return to try more drinks and to get the matchachata again!!

My friend and I had been wanting to try this place for a while and really glad we finally did. It's a place for weekend brunch or pre-game meal before heading over to SoFi. There's lots of street parking in the area, availability varies depending on the day and hour. 5 stars for the ambience and service. You immediately feel good vibes the minute you walk in here. It's a great casual spot with lots of light and a high ceiling. There's a nice loft upstairs with cozy couches, a good space for small meetings, studying / working, or just lounging. The main floor has bar seating, little nooks with small tables and a couple communal tables. The staff were all friendly and very chill. Order first in the centrally located coffee bar/register then it's open seating. 5 stars for the Soul Bowl, a fantastic mixture of poached eggs, creamy grits, bacon-braised collard greens and sweet corn. I added on the tiger shrimp for some extra protein. 4 stars for the side order of tater tots. Good level of crispiness and good flavor. 4 stars for the matcha latte. It was a solid drink with good proportion of matcha to milk. 2 stars for the O.G. beignets unfortunately. I've had my fair share of beignets and unfortunately this was a poor representation of a great classic French-based dessert. The consistency of the dough was too pasty and just not right. I struggled to finish just one of the 4 beignets in the order. Honestly, had to leave the rest of the beignets behind. Perhaps it was just a bad batch. It just wasn't an ideal way to end an otherwise perfectly delicious brunch experience.

Absolutely love Hilltop! Only wish they were open earlier so I could grab a latte before work. Their latte's are so good and the coffee flavor is so flavorful. I've tried the latte both hot and iced and it's delicious either way. Their acai bowls are the best! Whatever acai they use is delicious. So creamy and smooth. I could have one everyday. It's packed with granola, banana, strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. Definitely a filling bowl. It's also a great place to come in to do some work on the weekdays. However, it does get pretty busy on the weekends. Orders can take up to 30min and finding a table/ seat can be hard to find if you are there on a weekend. There are tables and some couches upstairs. Very cool environment. And I must say the people who come in dress so fashionably and I love it!

I have to come back and visit to try more food items on the menu because I only ordered an açai bowl & a cup of coffee. However, it was a tad bit on the sweet side for me but the coffee actually hit and I enjoyed being in the atmosphere of my community while connecting with other locals within Hilltop. Now to the service, the guy who took my order was very friendly loved his energy and vibe, the guy who made my coffee was also happy to be in the building and we both were vibing out to the music in the background and sang a tune together as he was finishing putting the last few touches to my coffee. Hilltop is definitely a chill spot to catch a break and enjoy good cup of coffee and finish some work or meet with friends or have a small business meeting.

I frequent Hilltop Coffee Shop pretty oftenand let me tell you, the chicken Sandwhiche deserves a shoutout! First off, major props to Hilltop for being a thriving Black-owned business in our community--support local, y'all! Now, onto the sandwich. The chicken is breaded to crispy perfection, giving you that satisfying crunch with every bite. It's seasoned just right, which I absolutely love. The dill pickles add a sweet touch, although I must confess, I'm not the biggest pickle fan of these pickles. The cabbage slaw adds a nice, slow burn to the mix, complementing the crunchy chicken and the soft, fresh brioche bun. Speaking of the bun, it's like a little pillow of happiness for your taste buds--so tasty! The only downside? I couldn't really taste the cheese. Maybe it's just my sandwich, or perhaps there's not much on it, but hey, when everything else is this good, who needs cheese? Now, I won't even bother checking the calorie count on this bad boy. I'm just going to dive right in and savor every delicious bite. If you're in the mood for a killer chicken sandwich that supports a thriving local business, Hilltop Coffee Shop is where it's at! Don't forget the local art displayed around the coffee shop.

I had been wanting to stop by Hilltop for a long time! This place was conveniently located near LAX which was perfect for a brunch spot after a flight. The ambiance was amazing, the staff was very welcoming and kind. I enjoyed seeing a business like this in Inglewood, really highlights the beauty in the area. We tried their Soul Bowl and breakfast burrito. Both tasted really good, especially the soul bowl! Def will come back!

I ordered the Hilltop Cobb, which is a salad with chicken, egg, avocado, cherry tomatoes, kale, other mixed greens and ranch dressing specifically because I wanted something lighter, yet still fresh and delicious. The salad itself is a good idea and has a good taste, but there were a few details that could have made it better. First, the avocado was not as fresh as it could have been, the bacon tasted like dehydrated bacon instead of freshly cooked bacon, and the salad was drenched in too much ranch! I ended up eating the sides and leaving behind the drenched greens. The breakfast burrito was great; however for its size, it was a bit overpriced. The atmosphere feels really nice and well designed too. There's lots of natural lighting, the space feels inviting, and there's an upstairs section too. In the surrounding area, there's plenty of metered street parking.

I am a Hilltop regular and I love the coffee and staff. I'm sitting here with a coffee stain on my shirt because the lids drip. This has been happening for years now and I'm finally saying something about it. I mean every day I deal with this.

What if Issa Rae was behind a dope spot in LA to get some coffee and eats? It'd be Hilltop Coffee because it is Hilltop Coffee. She's done a good thing here and that's evident by how freaking busy it gets. I waited like 45 minutes for my order on Sunday around noon, sheesh! This place is pop~you~lerrrrrr. I had their cold brew which was beyond refreshing! Also tried my friend's sweet potato latte which was tasty but it was a one and done for me. Fun to try but a bit too much sweetness for my liking. I want to try more of the food from the Kitchen portion though because the fish sandwich? OhEmGee. I removed the onions though because I'm not a fan but other than that, the flavor and the crispness? MONEY fish sandwich I'm onboard with. Def need to try more of the eats at Hilltop. Def a good option in Inglewood for some caffeination and eats, just be prepared to wait at this LA hot spot!

I finally made my way to Hilltop Coffee! I've been wanting to check this coffee spot out ever since I saw it on Insecure. It's been at the top of my list! When the day arrived, I had very high expectations. Some things were met and some were not. The service and the restrooms were not ok. But the coffee and the food were amazing! The lady who took our order acted as if she did not want to be there. But then to my surprise, when the couple behind us ordered, she magically seemed to love her job and was very nice. Hmmmm The restrooms were dirty and gross and just felt unclean. Both our coffees were great and our food was delicious! Hubby got a chicken sandwich which he said was one of the best he has had in a while. I got avocado toast which was different, but good. Since the service was wack, I probably will not come back to this location.

Issa Rae did that ! This is the perfect coffee shop not too far from Inglewood located in LA . What I loved about this coffee shop was the upstairs area where photos captured pretty much the youth of young African American males in LA , it was giving very much I haven't forgot where I came from ! Hilltop is a perfect coffee shop to get some work completed while grabbing a coffee & small breakfast bites . The noise level was almost at minimal level. Inside if you're a fan or want to support even further she has merch inside for sale along with bags of roasted coffee beans . I loved the oversized digital menu on the wall as well which makes it convenient for more than one person to view the menu before stepping up to the counter to order . I can tell that she gets a lot of support from the neighborhood from the start of us walking into the establishment. You have the option to indulge in your order downstairs or upstairs ! Super cool coffee shop & I would definetly come back again when I'm in town .

I had just landed at LAX and was hungry so I searched for something close and this place showed up. I'm glad I decided to give it a try. The parking situation is a little tricky but one I found a spot it was no problem. The restaurant interior is very clean and modern and the staff was very polite. I ordered the fish sandwich and Macha green tea. Both were really good. I felt like I was having something special worth my money and calories.

Food: The main star here is the fish sandwich. I don't even typically like fried food and I absolutely loved this; I would highly highly recommend. The breakfast burrito was great as well, but if you're going to get anything... please let it be the fish sandwich. The prices are a bit steep (hence the 4 star), which is why I haven't gone back...but I think about it everyday :') Service: Ordered online and it was ready when I went to go pick it up. Fast and friendly. Ambiance: The interior is beautiful, and there's plenty of seating with a second story as well. It seemed pretty busy with people studying or working. Definitely a nice place to get some work done or meet up with friends.

I was in LA and had this cafe bookmarked to check out since I was made aware through Issa Rae as I believe she is a part owner. I really enjoyed the space as a good working location with great food and snack options. The space was open and bright and upbeat. The staff was super helpful in me selecting my meal during my restrictive diet during this time. It was mid day and it seemed the working spaces were pretty filled, I would definitely utilize the space to work if I needed to.

I love the latte's here, specifically the lavender one. I've been to the one closer to Ladera Heights and this one happened to be close by to me this morning. I dont know if they have parking or not but I was able to park in one of the spots right in the front. The atmosphere is SO nice in this one. It has that second level with couches and the first level has seating towards the back. The servers/coffee bar people were all so sweet and nice. I ordered the nutella beignets because I have been wanting to try them for a while and I was unfortunately dissapointed. The dough was really dry and brittle, unlike beignets that I've had elsewhere before. It almost felt like I was eating old beignets that they had just warmed up again. Only reason I am giving this a lower score. Otherwise, love love this coffee shop. Great place to read and people watch.

Hilltop is truly a gem on the Inglewood community. I stopped in to get coffee and try the breakfast burrito. It is such a welcoming space with inspiring ambience and inviting staff. I tried the Slauson's brew and the breakfast burrito. My bf has the same thing and a lemonade. It was so good that I bought coffee beans to brew at home. If you're in Inglewood, pay them a visit. You won't regret it.

This is my favorite coffee shop. One of my regulars is to get their breakfast burrito and oh my gosh it's to die for I finally tried a new drink and the pistachio latte was so good that my friend was like dang I shouldve gotten that as well! As always, the customer service is nice their seating areas downstairs and upstairs pretty busy at 11 AM and so forth, but still able to sit down and enjoy the meal plus great music and vibes. I love the aesthetics in there it gives you, hope for a new world with the " keep your head up" before you leave, provides a lot of motivation for you to start your day

Finally made it to a Hilltop location! We went to Inglewood location. Love the positive and encouraging vibes as soon as you walk in! The matcha lemonade was super refreshing! The Matcha-Chata is a Matcha horchata, and I now have a new fav, would have never thought to put that combo together. The soul bowl was delicious, savory, I opted for no protein but should have gotten the blackened shrimp added. Ask for the siracha with it to add a kick. The breakfast burrito too, loved that it had hash browns, but needed the siracha with it for sure. I wasn't a fan of the Og Beignets, but my bf was. The berry compote with it was fire though hands down. Ate it by itself Can't wait to try another location.

Let's just say this place is a VIBE. The service is great, she was really nice and was patient with me as I was trying to get my order together. We had The banging breakfast sandwich and banging breakfast burrito. Both were really good. The coffee was also good. Although it's not Starbucks ( no one is Starbucks lol). It's alittle pricey so be warned. But the vibe and the atmosphere is real chill.

Recently visited Hilltop and got my go-to, the soul bowl--which has cheese grits, collard greens, and a perfectly poached egg. To balance it out, I also ordered an açaí bowl for later. While metered street parking is challenging to find nearby but I found a spot around the corner on Market St., there was a line but it moved fast, and the wait for my order was surprisingly short. They offer a variety of food, coffee and tea choices. The speed combined with the flavorful soul bowl made for a satisfying experience, making Hilltop a reliable choice for a quick and tasty meal.

My bf have been wanting to try this place out! It's a cool spot for coffee and a small snack/breakfast. There's street parking available but it is metered and you have to pay. Luckily, it was okay for us to find parking. I got the iced lavender latter and my bf got the iced pistachio latte. It was a nice lavender flavor and sweet enough for my liking. My bf said his drink was good as well if you like pistachio! We also got the smoked salmon and banana bread to share. The smoked salmon was sooooo delicious! I really like how it's different than most I've tried. It has cucumber, boiled eggs, pickled red onions, etc. The banana bread is good too. They warm it up for you if asked! It comes with some sort of butter. Overall, would recommend checking this place out! If it wasn't so far from us, we'd come often. Will be back if we're around the area.

I love everything about this place!! The vibe here is very much giving peaceful and calm while still reminding you not to forget where you came from and your roots. The service was great I got a matcha latte, the upstairs area was my favorite part. I liked all the art and pictures. I have been wanting to try this place for a while, glad I finally got the chance to stop in. This is located in the perfect place and will for sure be coming back.

This is our favorite neighborhood coffee spot! We love the coffee and pastries - the breakfast burrito is also a must order! The only downside is that they don't open until 8 am and close early! I hope they will be able to increase their hours soon!

I've been wanting to try this place since my friend came in January and I was not disappointed. I got the soul bowl, cornbread, beignets, and turmeric latte (not pictured). There was a little bit of confusion with the beignets, but know that the 4 beignets come with the sauces in a closed container on the side. If you want the OG, it only comes with the berry sauce, but if you want the Nutella, it comes with one side of berry sauce and one side of Nutella. Everything was deliciously well-seasoned, the workers were very kind, and the atmosphere was giving a super chill coffeehouse vibe. Loved it! Soul Bowl - 8/10 Cornbread w/ honey butter - 9/10 Beignets - 9/10 Turmeric latte - 8/10

The food and drinks are delicious! I really enjoy the breakfast bowl and salmon toast. The lavender latte is so delicious. If I order breakfast and a beverage and include a tip, it's a bit pricey. This is my only complaint, although it doesn't stop me from popping in once or twice a month. I love the ambiance, great meet up for meetings or to get a little work done. The parking isn't great, but can usually find something close on LaBrea.

What I like about this coffee shop is that it's close to home and the vibes in there aren't too bad. Very busy usually and loud sometimes. I like their coffee. Recently tried their matcha- chata and it was pretty delicious and refreshing. Other than that I usually get a mocha or a latte! Strong coffee for sure! The only thing I'm disappointed about is their customer service. The last three times I been there the people taking my order weren't too friendly. They just seemed so serious and unhappy lol. I guess it sucks to have a job and get paid. The most unfriendliest was a lady. It was just so unpleasant with her which totally ruined the experience. Another situation was I ordered tater tots one time. And idk what happened but it took 20+ mins to get my order. Everyone else who ordered after me were getting their food and it was like burritos and stuff. Mine was just tater tots! So pretty simple but I guess I was the unfortunate one and my order got lost?? I told the guy who took my order and he said he was gonna check. Took him a bit though cuz he kept walking in and out of the kitchen and walking right past me. At some point he was able to locate my tater tots thankfully cuz I was pretty hungry at this point. He handed them over and just said "Here you go".... not even a sorry about that or maybe a free pastry?? .. But nah forget the free pastry. I just think good customer service is important and politeness or else customers won't want to come back. I do like their tater tots though! They're delicious :) Oh also forgot! My bf and I went to get the Bangin breakfast burrito cuz I kept hearing good things. All I can say is it wasn't really bangin lol

* There is not enough room in this comment box for all the good things that I have to say about the vibration I am feeling here at the HILLTOP in Inglewood. It's an Experience. Peaceful. The music is perfect. The groupings of people getting together on ambiance on point this is this is the good life. My sister pulled it off. I had the fish sandwich. It was 10 out of 10. Smashing my goodness oh my goodness what a wonderful thing What is that drink called Peach Palm drink peach OMG! The service was Superbe. The guy greeting people behind the bar recommended the fish to me. Then he made sure that I received my order. Later, came by to get my opinion. I had to send some love to the Cook.

This was a visit to caffeinate myself after a night of partying but also to support a Black woman owned establishment. This, by far, is the best coffee cafe I've visited in awhile. The ambiance was dope and the playlist gave everything I wanted to hear while sipping my coffee and eating breakfast! Its rare to hear The Internet, Thunderkat and Kaytranada at any business so that alone deserves a star! The service was good but the food was even better. The Bangin' breakfast burrito lived up to its name. The caramel latte and chocolate mocha was velvety and delicious! Absolutely the best! Good job, Issa!

Overall I like this spot. It's beautiful and the staff are friendly. Parking isn't great, and neither is space inside. The seating is spread out and just doesn't feel like there is enough. I got the breakfast burrito and matcha-cata. Both were solid, but not mine changing. I might come back for the fish sandwich cause it looks delicious.

Love, love Hilltop! I ordered the Bangin Breakfast Sandwich and regular coffee. They never disappoint. I've also had the Sould Bowl w/shrimp before. Would absolutely recommend this gem in Inglewood!

One of my favorite coffee places to go to! Amazing looking interior that was put a lot of work into. The food is delicious with really unique refreshments. The coffee is really well made with tasty syrup options. I would definitely go for the lavender latte. Great service as always and I always look forward to come back.

First time trying the chicken sandwich, was cold, and barely any sauce. For $16 I had expected way more. Ambiance was great, customers service was okay.

Heard of this place recently. Decided to take the drive to check them out this morning. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a college library with all the kids on their laptops at the good tables My wife and I ordered some food and myself a coffee. Everything was pretty good. I'd definitely return to try other menu items. The vibe was really cool. I'm not from LA nor this area, but even I can tell this area is gentrifying. So I'd assume this place is in good shape to last. I recommend for a quick coffee and bite.

The food here is great, I had the smoked salmon droptop. The avocado toast is my fave! The service is always good and it's a nice ambiance.

I visited Hilltop to get some work done. I love that it's a creative workspace as well as a coffee shop/cafe. I didn't try any of the food but the coffee was delicious. The staff was friendly and the music playing in the background was nice . I tried both the lavender and the pistachio lattes with oat milk and they were both delicious. The pistachio was a little bit on the sweeter side but the lavender was perfectly balanced. The only downside to the coffee is that the two sizes offered are relatively small. I'd like to see a larger size coffee option on the menu. I'll definitely be coming back in the near future!

First time here and we were so glad we visited. Cute spot in Inglewood. Service was great, very friendly and food was so good. Ambiance is cozy if you sit upstairs but first floor is nice too. Cool Vault door, brings me back to my banking days.

Love!! Love this place. Beautiful inviting ambiance. Family friendly, friend friendly, everyone invited. We ordered a vanilla latte and caramel macchiato both iced, plus a slice of banana bread, lemon poppy seed muffin and a breakfast sandwich with bacon. Everything was delicious especially our vanilla latte and warmed banana bread. The banana bread and muffin were both fresh, soft and delicious. Reasonable prices. Awesome customer service. Will definitely return again in the future

Went early on a Sunday with the fam. No issue finding street parking. They have a variety of things on the menu from pastries to bowls to burritos and even waffles. Lots of beverage options as well. Everything we had was delicious! Service was very friendly and we didn't have to wait that long for our order. Nicely decorated space and it has a really nice vibe. Great playlist! Cute little spots upstairs and downstairs to sit.

I was staying with a friend in LA and they heavily recommended the crispy chicken sandwich from Hilltop Cafe. I was so excited to try it! The sauce has a bit of a kick to it and the chicken was cooked perfectly. Super yummy! It was easy to place an order ahead and pick up. I wish I lived closer so I could enjoy this more often!
