PSA- THEY ARE NO LONGER AT THIS LOCATION. THEY ARE A POPUP TROLLEY.

Just trying to prevent newbies from going to an empty storefront. Follow their IG to find out where they are or go to Kokomo’s further up Parsons (towards children’s hospital) if you’re looking for the next closest locally owned coffee shop.

Fwiw, community grounds is great and you should try their popup if you can!

We are so grateful to Community Grounds for supporting our recent event, and our families are still raving about them! Their food and drinks are absolutely incredible, and they are wonderfully attentive to allergies and food preferences, which means so much to our community.

The staff is kind, patient, and truly invested in creating a welcoming experience for everyone. Their service is impeccable, and they are fantastic with children, which is no small thing...

Amazing coffee and ambiance! I love this place so much. They really are community-focused. I had an iced lavender latte and it was delicious. Great selection of zines and other products too. Queer friendly 🌈
