Cozy little place in the heart of Old Town. I had a Chocolate chai with Expresso and a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. The sandwich was very good and hot. The chai as well was well done.
Took a little longer than it should for the chai but the go apologized for the delay.
The sign and cafe as a whole seem like they can use a bit of an update with certain items. But still a good place to stop and at and get some coffee.

The vanilla lavender iced latte is great

I ordered a mocca and I loved it, I didn't need to add any sugar, the atmosphere is very quiet, ideal to spend a quiet time or talk to someone. The service was one of the best I received, the barista helped me to choose an option when I didn't know which one to choose. Thank you very much for your service, I am excited to come back another day

Overall, cute place to come for Hot beverages, food and treats.
They need to do a bit of a better job with wipe down cleaning of seats and eating surfaces, so there aren't cup rings or crumbs and not just brushing it on the floor, where, now the floor is dirty, as well as making sure they clean up left over straw paper or napkins left from previous guests.
I liked the Vegan Chorizo, Egg and Cheese Bagel. However, I bit into a cold center on my second visit. The associate immediately apologized and made me a second one, ensuring it was hot, throughout.
The Tater tots are really Tasty and I was pleasantly surprised by that. I also loved the Chocolate chip cookie, Chocolate chip muffin and well-made Hot chocolate.

Great local coffee shop, good tasting drinks, and breakfast option. Very friendly, although they're attracting a lot of locals for a small shop but they make it work. This place definitely needs more workers, but the workers definitely can multitask. So leave a tip since they try to keep up with getting everyone orders in time. I love the local art you can buy on the walls, good tumblers, and my kids love the bobas. So if your looking for some good coffee beverages try here. You won't every be back at Starbucks, or the Paris baguette.

My husband and I were in from out of town and came across this place while looking for coffee. I am so glad we found this place. We were in VA for 5 days and had coffee and breakfast from there. Every. Single. Day. The coffee was delicious, not too acidic or overly sweet, just perfect. I tried a new one each day and loved all of them (Peanut Butter Mocha, Iced white chocolate raspberry mocha, Iced chai, and the Mounds mocha). The food is really what made this place sparkle though. I got the sausage breakfast burrito which was cheesy, flavorful, and HUGE. I also got the NYC lox bagel, veggie egg and cheese English muffin, and a pumpkin danish; all of which were phenomenal. Everyone was so nice and thoughtful, one of the workers there even asked my husband if she was putting enough caramel and vanilla in his drink since he ordered the same thing every time we went. I kept telling my husband I would move to Manassas just for this cafe. Long story short: GO HERE!

You look up “hometown coffee shop” in the dictionary, and there’s Grounds Central Station … Small space, unpretentious, with solid drinks and treats. One of my favorite spots for meeting friends for coffee and conversations on a Saturday morning.

This place is quickly becoming our go to! Quiet, cozy, great staff, wonderful offerings, and an easy to get to location - it has so much going for it. We've now been here three times within the last 2 weeks, and will definitely be back more times in the near future (not to mention when it starts getting warm and this falls right in the path of our almost daily walk). Service is friendly and fast, but they don't cut any corners by giving you sub par items. Their food choices are tasty, and their beverage menu is exactly what you'll expect and need from a cafe. Plenty of parking all around, so that's another issue resolved.

Coffee Shop No. 461 Grounds Central Station Manassas, VA January 18, 2025
This is my third time visiting Grounds Central Station, but my first time posting about it or adding it to my coffee shop list. Every time I have stepped into this small shop in the historic neighborhood of Manassas, Virginia I have received excellent customer service and delicious espresso drinks.
On this particularly cold morning I ordered my usual, a cortado. My husband had a dirty chia and my nieces shared a mocha.
Tried the midnight hot latte with an everything bagel and cream cheese as recommended by the barista. It didn’t disappoint! Tasted fabulous. Great atmosphere, friendly customer service. JD was welcoming! Thanks for a great first experience. I’ll be back! ☺️

I've been coming to this shop for serval years it's always a good experience. It's upsetting that not all staff is as capable in understanding and execution an order. I had to repeat myself multiple times this morning, it was not busy and somehow it took 10 minutes to produce the incorrect order as this morning staff checked their phones constantly, 2 staff members but only one was working. after switching up the type of bagel from plain to everything I got asked if I wanted an English muffin, they had forgotten my order. Frustrated and now late for work I decided to leave without the sandwich I had ordered.

Me and my family have been coming to this coffee shop for years now, and every time we walk in, we are warmly greeted by the lovely staff and warm drinks and food during the winter. Everything about this place will grab your attention; from their local art, to their awesome jortt display at the front.
