Common Grounds Waco

Wow, what a great spot right next to Baylor. All I can say is if I were back in college, I would have lived there.

Staff was friendly and they do a nice cup of coffee. My only complaint is that my cappuccino was quite a bit too hot by about 20 degrees. It took 15 minutes to get it where it should. Other than that - great job. That would never hold me back from returning or referring.

Awesome little coffee shop. It sets a new standard for how a coffee shop should look and feel as soon as you walk through the door. Plenty of seating inside and out. Also patio seating on the side and rear of building. Very welcoming staff etc. I can highly recommend you try this place.

Had some coffee here I had the double expresso iced with cowboy sauce and it was very sugary. The place seemed like a great place to sit and kill some time but the coffee left a bit to be desired. Overall if I was in the area I would probably come back to catch an event like an open mic or something. I think once it's filled with people then the whole atmosphere would change.

This is one of my favorite hang out spots in Waco, along with the Woodway location. I've been coming here for the last 15 years (which feels so weird to say) and enjoying the atmosphere.

This place has a classic coffee shop vibe with the cushy couches, cafe tables, and good tunes. The coffee is great... my favorite being the No Bull.

This is the perfect spot to read, study, meet a friend, or whatever. There are tourist groups during the day (mostly from the Waco tours buses), but it's a very chill place, especially in the evenings.

Teeny tiny cons: Parking lot is a bit bumpy and tight, but it is what it is. Drive thru is kind of narrow, but I'm glad they have it for when I can't go inside!

This Cafe is super cute and eclectic! They have an entire stage in the back and host some local musicians.
The coffee was excellent and the baristas were very nice

The Berista ordered for me. I believe I had the MilkyWay. It was delicious. It tasted exactly like a milkyway with a little bit of snicker bar flavoring. Staff was really nice and quick with making everyone's coffee. We sat outside. I will say the outside needs a sweeping and a wipe down. Other than that, we enjoyed our time. Baylor is right across the road.

First visit was in the summer. Common Grounds have good quality coffee. I had a mocha mint latte which was rich and not overly sweet. The place is quite cozy for college students. I bought a bag of Guatemala Las Flores to take home.

Going back the second time last evening in the fall. I enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. I had the matcha latte and brought home a pumpkin spice latte. Both were delicious. The best part is that I could still got a glimpse of college life without all the deadlines from school assignments!

This spot is a local favorite. This is the original location and the atmosphere is amazing. It's a great place to meet with friends, study, enjoy live music or just get some great coffee.

Love this place! It's been a waco favorite of mine for a while now. I've been going so often one of the batistas memorized my order:))
I keep meaning to take a picture of my drink but constantly forget because it's so wonderful!

The peppermint bark mocha was alright. Cute little coffee shop.
