There's a place in Covington Co., Mississippi (in the south central part of the state) called Hot Coffee.
It's an unincorporated wide-spot-in-the-road, but they do keep a pot of hot coffee on in the general store all the time, even during summer, which is the last time in the universe that you'd want a steamy cup of piping hot coffee, but there's tourism for you.

Last summer I read two books by photographer Gary Gladstone -- Passing Gas and Reaching Climax. Both books have a bunch of pictures from towns all over the U.S. that have strange names. I remember Hot Coffee was in one of them, but I can't remember which one. I'm thinking it was Passing Gas because Reaching Climax, not surprisingly, seemed to specialize in innuendos.
