Daily Grind Cafe

I love the Daily Grind! I do a lot of work in the courthouse just up the street and regularly like to stop in for lunch. I’ve had several people accompany me on a couple different occasions who also loved this cool and laid back coffee shop. I can count on their specials to be delicious and I always enjoy trying their tea of the day! In these photos I captured the delightfully crisp Tropical Green Tea and the Chicken Wrap I indulged in following a morning of thrifting with my friends.

Never coming here again. Terrible service and coffee. I tried to write a short review but this needs more than a few words.

I waited in line for 15+ minutes just waiting to get my order taken.There was a couple that was before me who had just finished ordering and were waiting for their drinks, so I figured I wouldn't wait long. Nope! It somehow took that long to order with at least 6 people running around behind the counter and in the kitchen. Some of the staff were too busy leaving the work area to chat with customers about mundane things to actually work, so that probably didn't help. Multiple staff saw me standing there waiting to order and ignored me. After a while, one of the staff members looks over attentively.

Oh, finally! She'll take my order.

Nope!

She saw the lady BEHIND me and asked what THEY wanted. Apparently they are friends, and the staff member happened to notice her waiting in line. Excuse me? What about me? I've been at the front of the line for over 10 mins at this point! Not an exaggeration, I had happened to check my phone right before I was in line.

Another couple of minutes pass. The woman I was ignored for had already received her drink and left. I'm considering leaving when FINALLY one of the staff approaches the counter and asks what I would like to order. I ask for an iced latte, and a couple of minutes later it's unceremoniously handed to me with no apology for the wait, no thank you or anything.

Okay, whatever. I finally have coffee now. This place has great ratings from what I've checked, so the coffee must be worth the wait, right?

My drink was a weak, watery, pathetic excuse for coffee. I chucked it into the trash without even finishing half of it. 4 bucks and almost 20 mins wasted on this garbage.

In conclusion, don't bother, just brew some yourself. You'll get it faster and it'll taste better. Unless you're good friends with one of the staff. They'll apparently ignore other customers just for you.

The service is poor, I didn't bother leaving a tip because of it. THEY HAVE BUGS: GNATS, FLIES, AND ANTS in the dining area. If there are bugs in the dining area, there's more than likely bugs where they prepare the food. The air conditioning is leaking and blows condensation on patrons. The manager knows about it but won't do anything about these problems. I wouldn't recommend eating the food or drinking the beverages here.

In all fairness, If you come in for muffin or coffee not so bad. If you want a good breakfast go to Dee's in New Philly. Next to ymca and the VA. Mile and a half away

Coffee and scone were very good. We had a few problems with our order and getting the rest of our food. The staff were very friendly, and also apologetic about the mistake. They gladly refunded us our money. They handled everything very well.

I was visiting my hometown and had lunch here after being gone for years and it was really different. Well the service that is. The new high schoolers they employ aren’t trained well. Grounds in the coffee, grilled cheese that was close to burnt on the outside but the cheese wasn’t melted through. Ingredients and the decor was pretty much the same which is the only reason they got two stars instead of one.

The Daily Grind Cafe is a beautiful little coffee shop that sells sandwiches, salads, cookies, coffee (of course) as well as other drinks. It has a unique atmosphere that is comfortable and inviting. They have areas where you can plug your phone or laptop in to charge and free WiFi.

Was in town on business, stopped by this place after seeing an advertisement in the elevator of the hotel I was staying at. Ordered the blueberry pancake latte and it was the greatest beverage that has ever graced my lips. Service is great, staff is friendly, atmosphere is beautiful. Absolutely love this place!

The Daily Grind has the Handground manual grinder, the best money can buy. They have black and white.

Wonderful atmosphere to work, meet friends, or just chill. Love the antique Aberth's bakery nostalgia. Appreciate the friendly staff, good service, and satisfying products. Definitely a must-see experience in New phili.
