Cute little spot! Love the vibe inside, all of the staff were friendly. The food was tasty as well. We came on a Sunday morning and didn’t have to wait. They pack this place!

The food was great! We got pancakes, eggs, avocado toast, egg sando, shrimp n grits. All of it was amazing. I especially loved the granola in the yogurt. I wish there was a little more yogurt but very good!

My family came into town, and they love brunch. We went to Hillside on a Friday. It is so cute inside. The service was great! Everyone really enjoyed their food. They had great offerings for the kids too. It’s a great spot.

I was pleasantly surprised by Hillside Farmacy. Cute and kitschy vibe and with great food to match. You cannot beat the Sunday $25 steak dinner special. Not only did I receive a huge portion of steak, but it was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I practically licked my plate clean. Service was spectacular and attentive. We left feeling full and satisfied. I can’t wait to bring friends back to this gem.

10/23 impromptu dinner date night with hubby. They had a big party event but the staff still seated us and gave us good service. It’s a fun place to enjoy a no-frail casual French bistro meal.

Yup! This is the place to be for brunch. We went on a Saturday morning and it wasn’t super busy. Service was fast, ambience was fantastic, and food was to die for! We got a pastry, two drinks, and our main dish all for under $65!
