Experience Middle Grounds coffee house for a quiet and relaxing atmosphere, friendly customer service, flavorful lattes, and delectable pastries!The attendant was very friendly, helpful, and courteous. She used her barista skills to efficiently hand craft my delcious Decker latte, and she packaged my pastry in a cute little brown bag! I was very satisfied with my purchase and the experience!The establishment is clean, (including the bathroom) and comfortable. The decor is very unique, with dim lighting, it adds rustic modern vibes. The music is also great addition; it gives a positive inspiration to the experience! Seem like a great place to relax, or work on your laptop, or meet a friend for a beverage and/or pastry.Parking may be hard to find if it's super busy in the area; there are a few spots to parallel park in front of the establishment...there is a side parking lot; however, most of the spaces are assigned to Lovick's Cafe until 2pm.

It’s bad when you order a black coffee and it’s served lukewarm. Then ask the employee when the coffee was brewed, answer “3 hours ago.” Then directs me to the microwave to warm it up. Yeah won’t be returning.

Great locally owned shop with a variety of drinks and a few pastries to fit your dietary preference. Many sugar free options and a variety of milks on hand to meet your needs. The French toast muffin was fantastic.Kid-friendliness: Seating and games for kids.

The lady was super helpful and friendly. I had no idea what to order and she gave me a few suggestions to choose from. She was informing when I asked ingredient questions. The brownie here was quite possibly the best I’ve ever tasted. I was craving a frozen drink and they delivered! 10/10 recommended.

Great spot for coffee and laptop and figuring out what I'm going to do today in Kinston! It's quite big on the inside with a variety of setting styles including comfy chairs and tables to set up, most of which have power outlets nearby. I loved the exposed brick which gave off a nice vibe.When asked "small or large" I made the mistake of ordering a large and wow, it was large. 16 ounces of coffee and steamed milk. I didn't even try to drink more than a quarter of it and I'm sorry for the waste. But wow, this was a very big coffee. Tasty, rich and creamy. Next time I'll know better.Parking: Easy parking on the street nearby.

Lots of seating to choose from, beautiful surroundings and ambience. Coffee is good. Would love to come back when I'm around.
Wonderful place, staff is amazing. I may have ordered the wrong drink. It was just too sweet for me. I will go back and try something else. London fog has honey and vanilla, next time I'll ask them to skip the ?.
