Uncommon Grounds is a popular breakfast spot in East Watertown, known for its delicious food and good coffee. The California Omlette and California Benedict are highly recommended, along with the new Gobbler pressed sandwich and breakfast tostado plate. The service is friendly, and although customers need to order at the counter, staff are helpful. Seating can be limited during colder months, but outdoor seating with umbrellas offers a nice option when the weather is nice. The lattes are excellent, and most breakfast items come with toast and home fries. Portions are generous and prices are fair. Recent reviews mention fast service and delicious coffee, with nearly two portions of cold brew at a good value. The food is consistently tasty, with favorites like the bagel egg and cheese breakfast sandwich and crispy home fries. While inside seating has lost some of its pre-pandemic charm and the atmosphere can feel less welcoming, staff remain friendly and helpful. The restaurant's quality food and charming outdoor area make it a favorite for locals, though it’s best to get takeout or sit outside when possible due to limited inside ambiance.
