☕️♥️☕️ Very nice coffee shop in the old Pain du Monde location. Love their hazelnut coffee and baked goods – esp the cinammon pull apart. Their baristas are always friendly and fun.

Love this place!!! I came in last week for the first time and was helped by Cat, who was so kind and friendly. I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted and she was patient with me in helping me find something I’d really like. The service is very good and the flavored lattes are delicious. I’ve now been back a few times snd it’s my favorite coffee place in the area! Be sure to check it out!

I had a fantastic experience at Grounded last week! I work in the area and wandered in to find a barista named Catherine welcoming me with a smile. She provided excellent service and helped me enjoy my iced oat milk mocha even more. The coffee is roasted very well, and I can tell the community provides a lot of love to this establishment! Thanks for a wonderful experience, Catherine!

The raspberry black iced tea is seriously SO GOOD. Of course the cookies are my favorite as well. My favorite cookie right now is funfetti, and my boyfriend favorite is the peanut butter cookie. I love the new ownership and love the diversity of pastries available. It’s really feels like the best go to local coffee shop that you can imagine. Five stars every day!!!

I’ve been to Grounded Coffee twice. Great vibe and location. Near the end of CDM on E coast blvd, so parking is easy. Lauren served us both times and remembered my order. So welcoming and my latte was perfect (Starbucks always taste watered down, but not at Grounded). Will come back soon!

Grounded Coffee is my favorite gem in CDM! I love that they release a monthly signature drink so my morning coffee never gets boring! The store is super clean and ownership is attentive and approachable! I love that I walk in and am always greeted warmly by the staff - Special shoutout to Dylan for always greeting me by name! It really is the little things!

Beautiful cafe with a friendly staff! Very fun atmosphere, and the skilled baristas prepare some very nice milk drinks - my daughter loved her vanilla latte, and I thought my (unflavored) latte was great as well.

I will say that my tastes tend to skew more toward third-wave style coffee, and I found both the filter coffee and espresso here to both be more toward the traditional end. That is ultimately why I rated Grounded as a 4 instead of a 5 -- they do what they do very well, it's just not 100% aligned with my personal preferences. I think if you like a more traditional/roastier coffee flavor, then you will probably love Grounded!
