SUCH a cute place to sit down & eat. It's really big & open, there's different seating areas for everyone. If you are more of the @ the bar & sit on a stool type, or relax on the couch type & "buisness" proper table & seat type. Literally all different dining experiences in one place. The food is really good & their coffee is amazing !! I highly recommend this place!!

The owner’s unprofessional behavior towards honest reviews leaves a very sour taste in my mouth. How embarrassing to bash your customers making a suggestion rather than embracing their criticism and just moving forward with your own business decisions as you see fit. Every review that slightly hints any negative activity has Samantha riding in on her high horse to make every excuse and/or justification. She expects everyone knows what’s going on behind the scenes, or follows them on social media. Running a business is hard; I get it, but running a business into the ground is easy. Your behavior is a direct reflection of the business. Now to my review: I have ate here a few times, and I definitely give the food a 4/5. It’s pretty great, but I’m not blown away. I’m basing my review off the food only, because the coffee (which had always been great) was a satellite location at the time. I would like to see different side options for meals rather than a bag of ruffles chips and a pickle; like pasta salad/potato salad, a side salad, sweet potato fries, Parmesan fries, even if it’s a $1-2 up-charge to choose. Half the time I don’t even eat the chips and it feels like a waste. Best of luck in your future home. I’m happy to see actual businesses come to the downtown area. I’ll gladly omit my initial criticism if I legitimately see that behavior change.

I LOVE this place but my biggest complaint is that they aren’t open on the weekends. Losing tons of potential profits from electing to close on the few days a week more people can spend time going to a coffee place instead of working

What a vibe!!! When you walk in the door you know this place has great food. Seeing the cheerful smiles of the employees brightens my day evertime. What a great environment for a quick bite or a delicious coffee. I cannot wait to check you out at your new location!!

This is the cutest little coffee shop! The drinks are delicious, as is the food, and I love the giving board on the back wall. Anyone can purchase a meal or drink for a person in need, and someone in need can walk in, choose from the board, and place it on the counter and be served, no questions asked. The gathering room is comfy and great for business brunches/lunches.

The food was delicious, they appeared to be under staffed. The young lady taking orders seemed unhappy to be there. No greetings, No thank you. It was black friday, so it should have been festive, with music playing, but it was cold, vacant and no music. Based on what I have heard this is not the norm...and I cannot wait to come back again. I hear you are amazing so I will be back.

This place is a great addition to the area. The coffee is tasty and the cuban sandwich was great. Kudos to the crew as they did an excellent job. Will return!

Cute place! Love the atmosphere and decorations. The ladies working the counter were so helpful with it being my first time there. Stroller friendly seating area in the back. I felt very welcomed even when my 3 year old got a little loud. I tried an iced coffee flight and mini charcuterie box. Both were great! They have non-dairy milk options. There is much more to try. My friend got a sandwich which looked amazing! The beautiful presentation of the food and drinks is definitely apart of the pricing. Makes for a special treat!!

What a great place to chill! I experienced The Grazing Place for the first time today. I say experienced because that’s truly what it was. We stopped to grab a coffee and kill a little time. The food was really good and the staff was friendly and attentive. The furniture is set up in such a way that it lends itself to just about anything you’re looking for. I saw people with laptops working, I saw children enjoying themselves, friends chatting and people who enjoyed some peaceful alone time. I would definitely recommend this little gem to anyone looking for a special experience, whatever you’re looking for I am sure they’ll fit the bill!

Fantastic spot for coffee, breakfast or lunch. Get the panini, and the Mandarin orange passion fruit smoothie. And the fancy fries, don't share with anyone. Coffee flights are awesome, but the charcuterie is the secret of this joint. Highly recommended for private catering, client gifts, something special for holidays, or just a mini snack box to eat by yourself in the car before you go home 🤣

My girlfriends and I stopped in today and I can't believe it's taken me this long to try! Super excited as it's in walking distance from where I work. Service was quick and everyone was super friendly. I had the Ultimate BLT and it was the best BLT I have ever had. Delish!
