We officially made it into Common Grounds in Gridley today for lunch. I should have taken a picture of all of our food! We have had some of their baked goods at Crafted before and a couple other events but this was our first time at this lovely little coffee/ lunch shop! Everything we had was SOOO good. I am thankful we don't live closer as this would be a problem! Highly recommend making the 25 minute drive. It is worth every penny and it was a beautiful day for a drive in the country!We all sampled each other's food but all were excellent! We had:-Chili and the fluffiest cornbread with honey butter.-Pulled pork with homemade Mac and cheese-bisquits and gravy-BBQ chicken /ranch pizza on super thin crust-white choc mocha-peach tea-mango smoothiePlus toll house pie and blackberry lemonade pie! The lemon was perky just how my husband loves it!The owner Katrina is so sweet and we told her over and over again how amazing everything was! We wish we had something this amazing in Bloomington but the drive out to Gridley is totally worth it!Damon kept saying over and over how impressed he was with common ground, he wants to go weekly!

We had a quick lunch. I had the loaded baked potato Flatbread and the salad with the house dressing. It was amazing. The people working there are super friendly and even thought the place was packed we got the food super fast. The pies are our of this world also. A gem in this small town.

After seeing the rave reviews, we were looking forward to having lunch at this place. We were disappointed. It has a nice atmosphere, but the food and service need improvement. They have only one order-taking line, which results in long waits. Our "strawberry" salad had no (as in zero) strawberries; in addition the nuts in the salad were small chopped pieces, which all fall to the bottom of the salad and thus are not eaten. The quiche was tasty, but the slice was small and left us unfilled. The biscuit was heavy and doughy and served cold with no butter. We took two pie slices home, and they were good. All in all, some good points to this place, but too many deficiencies.

Great atmosphere and beautiful design. Definitely a place for meetings, Bible studies, or hangouts. The coffee was great! They also have gluten free options for breakfast. The staff was professional and friendly. If your in the area or passing through, definitely stop in and treat yourself.
