★★★★★ 5.0 Candice Landau · Jan 2026

Amazing and cute cafe with plenty of seating inside and in the closed hall outside it. Decor really gives it a nice vibe and atmosphere. Someone knew how to attract women! Would have loved to see a few more vegan options for baked goods -- there was just one when I showed up. So many creative options could be added. Otherwise a good little cafe.

Great little coffee shop downtown. Super friendly staff. Great suggestions for me since I wanted a matcha latte but didn’t want any sugar! The mushroom matcha was excellent!

★★★★☆ 4.0 66 T Bird · Jan 2026

They seem efficient and mine was quick and pretty good. But not exactly what I'm used to for that drink, but good enough that I'll be back. The shop was clean, and inviting with comical mugs and knick knacks lining all the walls. The windows look out onto a retail hallway, with access to other shops and businesses they share the building with.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jessie Carty · Dec 2025

Cute coffee shop but was a bit disappointed in my London Fog latte. It was just OK. I have a feeling their coffee is better. I've heard their cheesecake is great but the scone I picked up was not.

I love getting coffee drinks and matcha lattes at Common Grounds. The staff is always so friendly and the drinks are made perfectly. They offer fresh pastries, gelato and many drink options. There is indoor and outdoor seating.
