🚨Located on 3rd floor

This coffee shop is located on the first floor on Google Maps but that is a mistake; you need to take the elevator to the 3rd floor to get to it (incredible that management does not correct this mistake?! So clueless).

Good coffee shop located in a modern office building that caters mostly to tenants of the building but well worth it to seek out if you are in the area. We were at the convention center and made a detour to come here.

Service was quick and efficient. Coffee taste was well above average at competitive prices. Large area to sit down and enjoy your drinks also. We did not try out the food so no opinion on that.

Highly recommended for coffee.

P.S.: please leave a 👍 if this review was helpful and thank you for that 🙏

You need to enter the business building and take elevator to 3rd floor. Not sure why it says first floor. Cortado was excellent. Latte was a bit too hot. The rose and lavender syrups and made in house.

I enjoy going to this coffee shop whenever I’m in downtown Houston. It’s on the 3rd level of the building it’s in. They do all the right kinds of coffee beverages, pour over, espresso drinks, etc. Their food options are good as well.

I'm a former barista and coffee roaster. They have solid coffee, nice latte art, very friendly cashiers and baristas.

I love this place and wish it were closer to me in distance because I'd go everyday. The food, drinks, and service were a 100/10 ❤️

I dont know how the coffee is. Took us 15 minutes to find the place because its hidden on the 3rd floor of an office building. We were walking in circles trying to find it. Google said it was on the first floor. We didn’t find out it was on the 3rd floor until we called to find out how to get there. We got there right at closing time and they wouldn’t take our order. After talking to someone I would assume they would at least take one order. They should have told us they were already cleaning up when we called, so we didn’t make the extra trip up to the 3rd floor. All in all, they lost two new customers. Now we are caffeine-less and frustrated.

Im only writing this so other people know how to get there and not make our mistakes.

Really great coffee and food! Love a convenient coffee shop or quick stop for lunch, Common Grounds is the place to go! The staff is extremely friendly and knows how to make a good coffee! (It’s on the 3rd floor just a heads up)

Lydia and Angel know their coffee. I’m not a coffee drinker but I needed something to wake me up and taste good. That was the perfect blend. Also, music is fire!!
