I live in Crystal Lake and can’t believe today was my first time trying Ground Coffee Shop. Amazing. I tried the thin mint iced latte (seasonal drink) and it was amazing. For those complaining about the price…..it’s no more than your Starbucks drinks AND you’re contributing to a local shop. Staff was friendly and made me feel welcomed. I think I found my new go to place.
This place is so cute! We went on Mother’s Day and they gave every woman a rose. I almost gave a four star review because I felt like the coffee was a little stronger/bitter than what I’m used to from small coffee shops. If you like sweeter, lighter coffee, be sure to tell them in advance! I LOVE that they have CBD coffee and their bakery food is SO good.
They make a nice London fog lattee, but today they gave black tea with cream on the side. No matter, but then the salmon bagel I bought gave me food poisoning and I puked all over my car on the way to work. Lost a days wages and still feel sick. Thanks Grounds, very cool
I'm ashamed at the amount of times I come in for a lavender vanilla latte. But it's their fault for making them so well. Very friendly staff always going above and beyond. Support local! (Also the scones look absolutely amazing - wish they were vegan!)
This is by far my favorite coffee shop around, the staff are all enjoyable and smiling, like they actually like their jobs, and their coffee is awesome! I always enjoy a Red Eye, and their Nutella lattes are to die for! (I get mine with oat milk)
Very very cute addition to downtown Crystal Lake! I had even gotten something I didn’t love and the girls were kind enough to remake a new drink no questions asked. Had a breakfast sandwich and it was good and all of the pastries looked delicious! Lots of cute stuff to look at and shop from and the couches and tables were very comfortable.
Cozy, modern coffee shop with stunning interior. Plenty of seating inside. My favorite drinks are the vanilla matcha with oat milk or an iced vanilla latte!
Awesome coffee shop! Grounds serves a variety of tea and coffee beverages in addition to cute seasonal drinks. I love their chai latte served both cold and hot. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. Lots of seating to sit down and chat with friends. I do wish they were open later!Such a cute place!
I love their coffee and the place itself is very modern, clean and cozy. My only issue was I got the raspberry pastry and it was stone cold, like straight from refrigerator... certainly not fresh (no wonder I was asked if I want it warmed up)
One of my favorite coffee shops! The staffs are so nice and friendly. I love their Nutella latte coffee. So good. I’ve been trying some of their pantry but I haven’t decided my favorite yet. Overall, everything is great! The design in the store, the staffs, the location in little cute town. Amazing!
