Took a ride out to Red Hot roasters because I was tired of the subpar coffee I was getting from nearby coffee shops in st Matthews, both local and commercial. Walked up to the drive-thru and ordered a couple of what ended up being perfectly balanced lattes. Not too sweet not too overwhelmingly coffee-y.

She was very friendly and had a great attitude. Unfortunately, this location is out of our way so we won't frequent it often and we also wanted to go around 8am but they didn't...

Having been a barista for several years, I know my way around coffee drinks, and these just really were not good. One was mediocre and one was just downright awful. I really wanted to love this little place, but I just can't.
I will say that I didn't try the drip coffee as I'm usually interested in something more fun, so it's possible that they have really good drip coffee. I...
