Grounded Coffee Shop

Fantastic coffee location. We frequent Glen Rose often enough that I’ve lamented their lack of a solid coffee place, so I was pleased after our visit of Grounded. Plenty of space (not evening including the study areas and meeting rooms outside the main cafe area). Solid coffee drinks with a good menu. Non-coffee drinks will rejoice with there other beverage options, and I love that they have a salad bar at lunch time—would make a great location for working an extended amount of time. Plus you can tell they’ve put a lot of thought and effort into the aesthetics of the location, as well as very professional and personable staff.

Absolutely amazing! On top of the beautiful atmosphere, perfect seating options for any visitor, and wonderful customer service, the soup + salad bar and coffees are the best I’ve ever had. I hope they expand one day. I’d love to have a Grounded Coffee location closer to home!

Cute local coffee shop. We visited this on our road trip from Dallas. They were kind to let my dog Simba inside and offered him pup cup. Delicious muffins and amazing coffee flavors. Passes the vibe check! Must visit this place. Highly recommend.

Great place to have coffee and hang out. Clean and friendly staff. They even have a conference room and a prayer room.

It doesn't get any better than Grounded. Best coffee, pastries and salad bar. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable staff. It is a faith based, Christian owned coffee shop that is a great asset to the community. I'm a member of a small (5) men's Christian group that meet here every Friday for breakfast and discussion. It is the highlight of my week and I can't thank them enough for allowing us that opportunity to meet.
OBTW the food is great

Victoria is amazing! She is very attentive and a great delight everyday when me and my co-workers come for coffee. She knows our name without even seeing our face just from hearing our order . That means she truly pays attention and that is an awesome trait to have in an employee. Top notch customer service from her every time. She is the reason I will come here daily. The coffee is good as well and I have not encountered one staff that was not also a great employee , Victoria just goes above and beyond and I felt she should be recognized!!!

Grounded is a wonderful local coffee shop located in the city of Glen Rose, which was made well known by the Dinosaur Valley State Park and Riverbend Retreat Center. I cannot recommend enough taking the time to visit Grounded!

First off, it is a Christian business, which I am all for supporting!

Atmosphere: Very lovely. Lighting is just right, which can be hard to find if you have sensory processing issues. I've been several times, and each time the music playing is soft, but still loud enough to hear and enjoy. Seating may be limited during the Summer, but the majority of the time you will have somewhere comfortable to sit and enjoy your beverage or food. With armchairs to lounge in and chat with friends or family, it is overall a welcoming and pleasant atmosphere.

Staff/Service: Staff has always been nothing but polite, friendly, and professional yet still warm in demeanor. I've had small food items missing from an order only twice, and the staff was always very helpful in immediately getting me the delicious cinnamon cookies.

My last visit on February 4th, there was an awesome male staff member I don't recall the name of. He went above and beyond in not only checking our orders for the chicken salad sandwiches were satisfactory, but asking for feedback on things currently implemented and future implementation ideas. 11/10 customer service. Listened genuinely to my friend and I's input, and gave us fruit samples before we headed out.

Ps: They chill their salad bar plates, and the salad bar is to die for.

Food/Prices: I literally love their cinnamon (sugar?) cookies! Every drink I've had, both coffee and other options, has always been very good. Prices could be considered high to some, but in my opinion the quality outweighs any quantity attached. They offer homemade chicken salad sandwiches that rival what Magnolia sells at the Waco restaurant here.

Overall, worth a visit if you are in town!

Very clean and friendly staff. The salads bar has a wide variety of choices. It even has healthy choices! Good is good! Ionot a coffee drinker, but there are so much more there than coffee!

Last visit was not best. Cashier forgot my water until I was leaving. For it being all you can eat soup and 1 plate salad, naw, only 2 soup options plus soup bowls are flat like plates, salad bar wilted. Don't think I will go back

I finally got to have lunch here and WOW. The club sandwich was amazing. I’m a big fan of the iced strawberry coconut cream green tea. Very light and refreshing 🤍
