The Ground Coffeehouse and Plant Shop

The shop itself is a former home-turned café/shop. So, parking here is very limited and very tight. While I could have fitted my car in one of the spaces, the two cars on either side were too close to the parking lines for my comfort so I parked across the street at the bank and walked over. When you enter, it's very small but very well put together décor wise. Each area had signs that discouraged movement of their furniture and had its own kind of theme. I was meeting up with a friend and her daughter and unfortunately did not realize they had the typical café hours (closed at 2pm) so my visit was very quick (30 minutes) and I had to rush my conversation. I ordered an iced Monstera Mint latte and chocolate coffee cake slice. When the barista called up my order, I repeated my order asking

This coffee shop is in a cool old bungalow on a secondary street in Ballwin. Walk in the front door and at the back of the room is a counter where you order coffee, and a case with a small selection of baked goods. Unless you’re told, as we were, you would not know to go down stairs to the addition at the back of the building. The addition is quite sizable, and there is lots of seating. This space has plants and gift items in it. The plant selection was not particularly impressive and in fact some of it looked a bit unhealthy. Since we were there for the beverages we did not spend any time carefully looking around at the merchandise . The reason we made our first trip to The Ground was for the beverages. The Chai tea latte and Carmel Madeleine Latte we had were excellent. We did not t

Had a wonderful couple of hours reading with an iced peppermint mocha while waiting to start my shift down the street. The staff was superb and welcoming. The entire location was homey, a very cozy atmosphere that made me melt into my cup of coffee and my book perfectly. I'm certainly coming back here, as the place made me feel beyond comfortable. I love this place, and my goodness that cup of coffee was the best I have ever had. It was a perfect balance of sweetness with the coffee and cold foam, they even added peppermint crumbs on top, which made the entire sight just wonderful. It's something I'm certainly planning to take my partner to for a nice little coffee date. The pricing wasn't too bad either, it's what you'd expect from any coffee shop, but genuinely? With the additional, unex

Went here for the first time. Really good, smooth, cold brew. Got a sweet cream cold brew with hazelnut and vanilla cold foam - delicious...

I checked out a new coffee spot that just opened nearby. Went there on the first day (Saturday) and the place had a really inviting vibe. The decor was simple but eye-catching. I asked for their signature drink, the Ground Latte, which is a mix of caramel and madeleine flavors, and grabbed a coffee muffin too. I was super excited because it's only about 5 minutes from my place. The first couple of sips of the latte were great, but then the almond extract flavor kicked in, and that ruined it for me (I'm not a fan of almond extract at all). But the coffee muffin was a hit! It wasn't dry and had a lot of flavor, though a bit more coffee would’ve made it perfect. The texture contrast between the crunchy top and the soft muffin, especially around the spices, was awesome. I didn’t want to base
