First you have to stand in line before they take your order fast-casual style. But then they charge you a mandatory 15% tip! What is that for? They don't wait on your table. What if the service or food is bad? What if you need another drink? Seriously, what in the world is this mandatory tip for? It's only purpose is to sneak in more revenue.
The food is okay. The atmosphere is mid. It's too loud to hear anyone more than 2ft away from you. They have no sound dampening. There is a huge concrete wall with nothing but water stains on it. Who wants to look at that, especially with premium pricing?

The steak and eggs and the pear, goat cheese toast is perfection! Great atmosphere.

Favorite breakfast spot in Birmingham, love the vibes of this place and that they are seed oil free.

It was my first visit, and thanks to Olivia’s amazing recommendation and wonderful service, I had such a great experience, the kind that makes you want to come back again! 🌟

I added spinach to the shiitake omelet, just like Olivia suggested, and wow, it was absolutely delicious. Thank you, Olivia!

And Cameron, every word you said showed such genuine care for your customers, really appreciate that!

Can’t wait for my next visit! 💛

INCREDIBLE food - Worth the price. They use organic, locally sourced food, no seed oils, etc. The quality of Commonwealth’s food is really hard to find in metro Detroit. We moved from LA and NY and haven’t found anything else comparable. There is a reason it’s always so busy! Everything on the menu is 10/10. The staff is also really helpful and lovely. Helps that the vibe is amazing, but to be honest I’d probably eat this food out of a garbage can it’s so good.

If you are looking for a deal, go get a hotdog from Costco or Home Depot instead. Depot dogs!!! Depot dogs!

Very very overpriced for what it is. Worst pancakes I have every had (like worse then what you make out of a box at home), the steak bowl was pretty good but $36 for a tiny steak. Limited coffee drinks that were just ok, not worth the price, they seem to aim for a pretty design rather than making them great tasting. Also it's a very loud atmosphere so do not go here if you want to talk to any one that isn't directly next to you. Additionally, they tip themselves automatically but you walk up and wait in a long line to order.

Great vibes. Cool establishment. Very very over priced (8$ for a smaller latte) and .50 for skim milk?! I wanted to like the latte but it did not taste good, better coffee shops around in the area.

The restaurant feels cold. The food is ok for how expensive it is. The service is rude and tip is already included.
