CityGrounds Coffee Bar

I discovered this neighborhood coffee shop when I moved here and absolutely adore it. They have an amazing flavor profile for specialty lattes, and every...

Love this place. I've become a regular and I plan on staying a regular. This cute little coffee and tea shop is exactly one of the many places that makes...

Excellent coffee. They're for the true coffee connoisseurs, with a wide range of beans to choose from for pour-overs, but lattes only come in one type and...

Cute vibe with good variety of music, wish it were warmer so we could enjoy the outdoor seating. Some pastries available, would like to try another time!

So, I should have definitely read the reviews first before trying this place out, but I was in the area and short on time. The guy behind the counter, does not greet you when you walk in, when you smile, he doesn’t smile back, when you try to make light conversation, he doesn’t reply. The overpriced piece of cake I purchased was terrible, dried out, and tasted like it came from the 99 cent store. The latte he made was very subpar, although the espresso had a good flavor. Suggestion: if you don’t want to be there, then send someone else in.

Meh underwhelming and pretty bare. Coffee was ok

Ditto to the other reviewer who observed stand-offish service. Espresso is decent, but why give your money to a place that doesn’t like you? Also no air con (if you’re into that), and seating area is slightly awkward with only mirrors on one wall. {Update: please see response below from owner for more evidence of previously-mentioned poor attitude}

Fun choices across all beverages. Good iced espresso pulled right on the ice! And a blueberry lemon lavender iced tea. Nice bites, too.

Really want to like this shop, given it's mostly undiscovered and spacious seating. Service is often snooty and moody. Coffee is good. Food is limited, overpriced and meh - on separate trips I've asked two different workers what they liked to eat on menu...both said they never try or eat anything here. So that tells you something. Just come thirsty and with thick skin, perhaps?

Wonderful cafe next to Oz park. Full espresso menu to choose from with downstairs and upstairs community rooms to work or just sit and sip. There is a front patio for relaxing coffee on a sunny day as well.
