About On the Hill Cafe

The On the Hill Cafe is a cozy and charming cafe located in a residential area near a school. It offers a variety of delicious food and drinks, including the popular Zola Chicken Sandwich, bacon, egg, and cheese bagel, and cane sugar sodas on draft. Customers appreciate the convenient online ordering and the nice outdoor seating area, which has about four tables, perfect for enjoying the weather on warm days. Many visitors enjoy their breakfast here, noting that the food is always great and generously portioned, though sometimes a little greasy. The cold brew is highly praised as one of the best in the city. However, the cafe is not very accessible for wheelchair users due to a large step at the entrance. Customers also mention that during lunchtime, wait times can be longer, so ordering ahead is recommended. While there is limited indoor seating, the cafe remains a beloved spot in the community for good food, excellent coffee, and friendly service. They also offer gluten-free options like corn cakes, bagels, and buns. Overall, it is a great location for sandwiches and burritos, though some dishes, like the birria quesadilla, may not taste traditional. Despite the busyness, the staff are courteous and attentive, making it a place worth returning to.

On the Hill used to be the most incredible cafe in Baltimore. The best food, the best prices. I ate there at least once per week. Unfortunately, now they have changed their menu to overly expensive and totally unappealing pseudo Mexican food. WHY?!?!?! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO CHANGE!?!?! I have zero interest in returning to the new and poorly reimagined On the Hill Cafe. None of my friends are interested in going. At this point it's just a matter of time until they permanently go...read full review
