★★★★★ 5.0 David Hepworth · Sep 2024

Fantastic coffee bar with great desserts and coffees! Nice service from barista! Super comfy chairs and couches! Seems a lot like the coffee shop on Friends! (They even played the theme song 🎶) Free parking lot across the street! Town is delightful with fun shopping nearby! Had a delicious Macchiato! Great place to hang and refresh!

I love coming here. Each time I've come in after a ride or while on a walk I've been greeted with great service and awesome coffee. It's impressive to watch how well the Common Grounds Team "manages the ship"; from sudden rushes to random power outages, they do an amazing job of keeping things flowing. Additionally, they offer a decent amount of seating which I think is great.

Pretty standard coffee shop. No notes or complaints there. Designed nicely but either the tables on upper deck are too tall or the black couch chairs are too low because sitting at the right angle irksome and one table is right in the walkway to the door

This is the cutest local coffee shop. There were so many people hanging out, working and visiting. The food looked amazing but I didn’t get any. The baristas were so nice and helpful. I got a small pumpkin spiced iced latte and it was $6 and very good! I’d love to go back.

Love this place in the heart of Branford Green. I always get their hot chocolate and chipotle chicken wrap. They are perfect for a cold winter day when I would love a quick, warm meal for breakfast or lunch. The ladies working here are nice and attentive. Their rice pudding is also good.
