Rise & Grind Cafe and Smoothie Bar

AMAZING. The food was fresh and homemade. BEC was tastey and perfectly cooked. Their smoothies are delicious - the perfect amount of sweet or salty. Pastries and coffee were some of the best around. Well done by this establishment - excited to return! Staff were si very friendly and kind.

Absolutely love Rise and Grind cafe. I have tried multiple smoothies and their coffee smoothie and haven’t had a bad one yet. Love that they use fresh fruit and the customer service there is top notch. Even on days when I don’t have time to hit the gym, I will stop by for a smoothie. High quality protein, high quality smoothies and high quality service. Support local folks.

Very nice place, comfortable sitting. The flat bread breakfast sandwich was delicious, my wife’s avocado toast delicious as well, Columbian coffee was strong and good…will be back again…

We took the 10 minute drive from Great Wolf Lodge with our 3 girls and I’m SO glad we did. The coffee was excellent, the breakfast sandwiches were excellent (the Portuguese muffins were so good) and so was the service. We didn’t order a smoothie but the selection looked great. What an awesome addition to downtown Fitchburg!

Protein shake cafes have become widely popular & what I love most about Rise & Grind is that it’s not just another chain place trying to push their product on you or get you to “sign up to change your life”. The ingredients are always real and fresh, there are a variety of options that you can pick off their menu or customize yourself. The cafe area has a great vibe to hang out with friends after a workout or even work remotely from. I usually build my own given that I order non-dairy plant based items and everyone who works there is always happy to accommodate.

For anyone saying the products are over priced - you would easily give your $ to someplace like Starbucks and not blink an eye. Why not spend that $ supporting a small business instead? Prices are honestly comparable with the market & the coffee drinks themselves are even less expensive than a number of other local coffee shops. They also offer other prepped meals, snacks, cooler drinks, supplements and apparel. It’s absolutely worth the visit if you’re in the Central MA area!

Just had the BEST breakfast sandwich I have had in a long time! Everything was fantastic and tasty. Will definitely be back!

Amazing food with great coffee. Definitely will be visiting here again when im in town.

Absolutely amazing shop. Not only the owner, but the entire staff go above and beyond to make your trip well worth it. Shakes are FIRE. I always buy something from their ever growing clothing line. And everything sold is quality (food, supplements, apparel). We buy 100% of our supplements from this shop and get shakes for ourselves and the kids when we stop in. 10/10 recommend

My absolute favorite place in town to stop and get a coffee or shake. The el chapo protein coffee is incredible. The staff is friendly and will customize your order, plus they have a good variety of vegan protein which is huge!

*edited to add that the price is comparable to Starbucks or any other shake shop I've ever been to but I’d 100% rather support a small business and the quality of the products are worth every cent. Oh and if people don’t want there to be kids at an establishment where they can purchase drinks then I recommend going to a bar, I personally love a family friend place as I have 3 children and would hate if they were not allowed to come with me to get my coffee or shake. Normally I would keep my mouth shut because everyone is entitled to their own opinions but I’ve always had a great experience there and the owners definitely deserve the recognition for their hard work and dedication to the local community.

Stopped for a protein coffee/smoothie at Rise & Grind after a workout and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Flavors are amazing, choices are unlimited, and the staff there are super friendly and helpful. Finding quality protein smoothies after a lifting session sometimes isn’t easy, but Rise & Grind knocks it out of the park. Will definitely be back for more when I’m in the area! Keep crushing it guys!
