What a cool spot! This is a great coffee shop, and the service is amazing! We will be back.
Food and coffee were both great and atmosphere is pleasant. The book and music selection is great too.
Lovely cafe with a great second-hand book selection! They have good coffee and cheesecake, and I recently purchased some nice cooking/baking books from them! The book store in combination with the café gives it a nice cozy atmosphere. I've been to Grounds for Thought multiple times and will keep going back whenever I'm in the area :)
When you picture a coffee shop in a college town, this one hits all of the high-points - books to read/purchase, many different tables, people engaged in all kinds of conversations, other gaming, and people playing chess. The walls are covered with years of posters and older pictures. Generally a warm place to hang-out. The shop is very big with a significant amount of seating at tables as small as two and large enough to hold 10. The espresso was excellent and the pastries were good even in the late afternoon. Staff behind the counter was awesome, answered the couple of questions we had. Certainly a place to stop and get your caffeine fix!
It's a cool local coffee shop and bookstore. I always order the Creme Brulee latte, and my girlfriend orders the Pooh Bear latte. And we love perusing the free books cart.
