Don't let the name fool you. Eclipse Coffee and Books is so much more than a coffee house. Located at 1032 Main Street, Eclipse is perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner, happy hour or any other time of day to get your local food fix. The menu ranges from sandwiches and salads, soups, snacks and even fabulous desserts like homemade lemon squares and pecan pie. Eclipse also offers a yummy breakfast menu with items like bagels, muffins, cinnamon buns and even huevos rancheros. Happy hour on the porch is also quite appealing.

Eclipse breaks some rules when it comes to mixing drinks. Fresh herbs like rosemary and basil, which they grow themselves, are making drinks like margaritas and vodka tonics extra special. Owner Cheryl Patton shops at local farmers markets and Lucky's for items like peaches and blackberries. One of the best sellers on the menu is the quinoa salad. Quinoa is a high protein grain which she orders from Bolivia. Eclipse is the only place in Montevallo that emphasizes vegetarian and vegan food. Eclipse is open Monday thru Saturday for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Local musicians are always welcome to come and "pick on the porch" or check out the impressive collection of books and local art work.

Eclipse gives back to the community by supporting and promoting local artist, musicians and farmers. If fresh, innovative food with friendly service is what you crave, Eclipse is the place for you!
