Greeted by friendly faces and a chill atmosphere while I fill my cup (both literal and socially) so I can pour into others. The owners are so kind. I love finding local small businesses to support. Will bring my sister with me next time I'm in the area.

If you’re looking to support kind, local, hard working people.. look no further. Grounds is 1,000x better than any big name brand coffee establishment. They take time and care in all they do from the coffee, to the sitting area, to the gorgeous antique glasses you drink out of while sitting in their shop and to name one more cute thing.. their chocolates are literal pieces of art. Everything is just a finer touch. I love yalls shop! I love all the gifts for my mom i was able to get at a COFFEE SHOP that they gift wrapped for me! And most importantly i loved the amazing iced matcha latte Reggie made for me!! (The chocolates were absolutely amazing also, it hurt to eat such gorgeous little works of art but it happened!!) it was also wonderful being treated like family by the owners Tyler and Reggie. Which is why we will continue to come back weekly.
Kid-friendliness: A great place for moms. Because there were several in there along with me. So plenty of kid friendliness in my opinion.

Pretty good place to pickup a quick cup of coffee. Interesting collection of clothing, books, chotchkies, etc. The baked goods looked appealing, but didn’t partake.

Absolutely love the atmosphere here — incredibly cute + everyone who works at grounds + basic. is so friendly! If you don't typically like non-dairy milk options, the macadamia milk is a game changer — I'm not a huge fan of oat milk but I love getting my lattes with macadamia milk here!
I highly recommend this spot to anyone in search of a unique and socially responsible coffee + chocolate experience. I am already looking forward to my next visit and can confidently say that I would come back a million times.The atmosphere is incredibly vibey and welcoming! What sets this place apart is its shared space with a clothing store, making it a one-of-a-kind destination where I can sip on a delicious brew while browsing beautiful clothes.Both the coffee shop and the clothing store share a commitment to selling ethically made products, which aligns perfectly with my values as a conscious consumer. It's refreshing to see businesses that prioritize sustainability and ethics while delivering exceptional quality.The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about their craft, adding a personal touch to every visit. The menu offers a diverse selection of drinks, ensuring there's something for everyone.Cheers to a fantastic addition to the local scene!

I’m a little late posting from the opening night of Grounds but I wanted to say that this spot is a VIBE. I had the French Vanilla Latte and it was so good! The space is so nice and welcoming. They have games to play and cozy seating. They have chocolate also and who doesn’t love a little bonbon for the road!? Please stop by and support this small business! The owner is a gem and he has created a space full of warmth and love through community, coffee, and chocolate!

Barista was friendly. Atmosphere was nice, a bit strange because the space is shared with a clothing store, but nice. However 3 stars because I ordered a hot cocoa and my husband ordered a mocha and it’s pretty obvious that they put twice the chocolate in mine and no chocolate at all in his. I’m sure they would have fixed it if we didn’t leave straight away, though. Also they only have oat or almond milk - no dairy. That’s their choice and it’s totally fine, but they didn’t tell us until after we had ordered and paid for our drinks. My husband probably wouldn’t have ordered anything if he had known up front.

The VIBES of this place are so cute!! And the coffee is so delicious and well made. You can tell they use quality ingredients. Also got a bon bon box with my French vanilla latte and they were to die for. Couldn’t recommend Grounds enough!!
Best coffee we’ve had in Birmingham!
