The place that used be here was better, and it's a huge pity that it's gone now and replaced with this. No bagels anymore, and fewer hours. Closes at 2:00?!? Why the crap does every stupid little small town coffee place seem to think they only exist to compete with Dunkin for getting the miserable morning masses their get-me-through-this caffeine? College towns need caffeine fueled get-together hubs of creativity, not a Star Bucks that closes before you can blink.

Iced americano was delicious. Very creamy and smooth. Grounded doesn’t have much seating, but the aesthetic is really welcoming.

Super cozy coffee shop with plenty of good drinks to offer. I love seeing what seasonal drinks they offer as well. I have yet to try the food so I can't speak on that, but given that they seem to prioritize using quality and/or organic ingredients I imagine it's good. I look forward to trying it sometime. The outdoor dining area behind the building is also super cozy, even if I'm grabbing a bite/drink from another establishment or just have some studying/work to do I'll walk over there to chill.

Americano coffee has a sour taste, so I highly recommend it to those who like that flavor. Honey latte was also rich and sweet. The cinnamon raisin bagel sandwich (PB&J) with honey latte peanut butter and jam and the bagel sandwich with salmon smoked, cream cheese, cucumbers, capers and salad greens were very delicious. It seems to be a small cafe mainly visited by regulars, but the taste and service are excellent. We were deeply impressed by the unexpected countryside cafe and was able to continue my next trip.

The coffee and food was phenomenal. Great service. Not very big inside, but there is free wifi. The outdoor seating looked beautiful but luck wasn't on my side weather wise today. I would definitely return if I'm in the area again.

Love this place! I asked if they had whipped cream for a pup cup and they unfortunately didn’t have whipped cream, but they gave me a nice warm sausage patty for my dog! How nice of them! Coffee hits the spot!

Nice atmosphere and good coffee. I wanted to try the sandwiches, but they had run out and I didn’t have time to wait. I’ll go back to another time, though.
Mediocre coffee, horible service. The baristas never tell you when your drink is ready so if you're not staring at the counter waiting you won't know its ready.

Very cute place, the baristas are always very nice and their coffee is amazing! I love the idea of charging a little extra for take out cups and less for reusable cups. Ive had two of their bagel sandwhiches and they have both been very good.

Amazing lattes, especially the caramel. Super friendly staff. I love bringing school work here to study or focus, as it is such a cozy and warm environment. “The Egg” sandwich is a must!! I always make sure to stop at Grounded when I am in the area.

Amazing service. And honestly, for a place with such a nice selection of delicious coffee, not too overpriced. The inside of the shop is beautiful and so welcoming. Def recommend the vanilla iced latte
