Yummy. Great vibe and awesome service. New go to joint for smoothies. Very reasonably priced compared to other smoothie joints. Got a mixed berry smoothie with Bai coconut drink. Its awesome.

There's a peanut butter and banana smoothie option too. Sounded yummers but I'm looking for low calorie options.

I almost bought some of the cute decor they had for sale. It's also very reasonably priced.

Sandwiches were great (not large, but very tasty), the decaf espresso was good, the iced latte drink was a little watery (maybe they used skim milk? and I'm used to whole milk).

Found out that the glazed donuts they sell are just Entenmann’s donuts from the grocery store. We called one day to ask where they get their donuts or if they’re made in house, and the girl on the phone at Common Grounds casually said they’re from Leuders grocery store across the street.

So Common Grounds is selling boxed grocery store donuts at a greatly higher price and making it appear like the donuts are local or homemade. They take them out of the box and put them into their display. That’s wild and really disappointing. Feels misleading and we won’t be supporting this business anymore. We see this as shameful and dishonest to the community.

I LOVE this coffee shop. This is where you go when you want to go where everyone knows your name. The tables are large, and the staff aver very friendly and wonderful. It's a great place to remotely work. Highly recommend it.

I’ve come here a few times and almost every time the food is super disappointing. Either I get the burrito and it falls apart to where I can’t eat it and it’s so soggy and cold I don’t really mind. or the breakfast sandwich is burnt. There’s nothing pleasant about burnt croissants. Also, the staff knows when they’re handing you bad food. My food was clearly burnt and my other one the burrito tortilla was already ripping when they handed it to me. The coffee always taste burnt or watered down. I’ve tried to give it a chance so many times but it’s just not good.

Such a cute cafe the espresso was very bold tasting which is not my thing. The chicken pesto panini was quite good though

Great coffee and breakfast burritos! You’re also able to buy bags of the ground coffee to take home. Love!

This was a stop for coffee. They take their coffee seriously and have a great selection of breakfast and lunch items. It seems to be fairly popular.

Favorite breakfast place in Spearfish. Excellent coffee. Great bagels. Chill atmosphere.

Usually our favorite place in town. Very unprofessional today however as one owner said to us at 5:38pm on a Wednesday “I think they’re kicking you out” immediately after they shut off the music. The business closes at 6pm. Not only did they kick us out 22 minutes early in the middle of our work and conversation, but they did so with very poor and unprofessional communication. We were surprised and taken back by their approach and demeanor during the interaction. We understand and respect a mom and pop closing early, and we love the atmosphere of mom and pops especially this place, however it is unacceptable and simply wrong to have paying customers leave over 20 minutes before closing and to do so by saying “I think they’re kicking you out.” We asked if we could stay 10 minutes longer and she replied “I don’t know, I don’t have the key”. I wish them all the best with the circumstances that arose to cause them to treat repeat customers, or any customers, with that demeanor. I would be ashamed as a business owner.

As you can see from their response to my review, their communication is very unprofessional. They could have said they had something to do involving family and that would have been professional and right. Says a lot about a grown man who is comfortable speaking online but not in person, to their own customers. Sad and pathetic. All the best to your father. Won’t be entering this business again.
