I have been going to Grounds for 20+ years. They always have the best baked goods and sandwiches. I have never been disappointed. �
it's that perfect community bakery/cafe that you would want in your neighborhood. staff is attentive and friendly, and there is always friendly people frequenting the cafe. great selection of coffee and delicious food. very recommended.
Grounds has a new piece of my heart. The owners are staunch advocates for children with special needs. As a parent and community stakeholder, this means the world to me!
Beat sandwiches in town. Been coming here all my life. The staff is impeccable
Awesome. Recommend to everyone. Not only is coffee and food fantastic, but so is the staff.
I usually hit Grounds for lunch when I have some free time to write. I’ve never been disappointed. Recently, I decided to grab bagels for the first time just before closing. I was amazed when I had it the next morning. Still fresh and delicious.
I have nothing but good things to say about this place....
Amazing...!!!
Great place. Their breakfast sandwiches are so fresh, light and yummy. Along with their regular sandwiches, those are so good too!!
I absolutely LOVE this place!!! Homemade soups and breads. I recommend their Tuna on Pumpernickel!

High quality sandwiches and great coffee. Love this place!
My favorite sandwich spot! Tuna avocado on squaw is bomb and their service rocks!
My mom & dad came here often. It was one of their regular places. They both passed away last year. I recently moved to town & went in with a friend to see if it could become one of my places too. I thoroughly enjoyed my hot pastrami sandwich (through some tears, truth be told), and we splurged on some "death by chocolate" mousse! I also purchased a birthday cupcake for a friend, who was very pleased! I will totally be back. Thank you!
We are creatures of habit. I started going to Grounds after having a business meeting there - we had lunch and the entire store was a vibe. It truly feels like Grounds is a place for the community!!!
I now go to grounds bakery often before frisbee golfing at El Dorado Park and because of the Pandemic, I began to phone in my small and short order so I could be in and out! And I'm so glad I phone in because I learned someone else amazing out them! One of the things that I have come to love about Grounds is their personable and friendly care for their customers. Upon ordering on the phone, they know my name and that means a lot to me!
Their food is fresh, their spread is delicious, and their coffee is great. I hope to grow old continuing to order from Grounds and to pass on the tradition of eating their food before frolfing to my children!!
The best places to get breakfasts, lunch and fresh baked baked goods! You must try THE MEAT SKILLET! To give it a kick. Request pepper flakes on the side. 😉 Foodies unite!!!🖒🤘

I was visiting Mom for the holiday. I hadn't seen her since June. She loves to go to lunch at several little cafes around town. Two of them are closed on Mondays so we took a chance on Grounds.
The person outside breaking down tables was super snarky. She acted put upon and like we were stupid because didn't realize they were closing an hour early for Labor Day. It seemed like she was mad to be working on a holiday at all.
I felt bad/embarrassed because I worked in restaurants when I was a young person. It sucks to work on holidays when everyone else is at the beach or having barbecues. And I try not to be a customer that arrives right before closing because I know that the faster the staff can clean the kitchen and dining room, the sooner they can go have fun. Mom and I got there about 1:25-ish so we weren't being complete jerks.
We ordered sandwiches, chips, and pastries for take out. The cashier was friendly. I loved the her pink mermaid hair. It suits her perfectly. The manager was funny and joked with Mom. Mom is pushing 92, so I'm always grateful when servers and retail folks are kind and patient with her. The food was prepared quickly and correctly and we were on our way. Yay!
At home, we devoured the sandwiches, chips, and sodas. It was nearly 2 p.m. and we didn't realize how hungry we were. The sandwiches were yummy. They're just like the sandwiches you wish you could make for yourself at home but you don't want to keep the squaw bread, produce and condiments on hand all the time.
The pastries we had the following morning with our coffee were really good too. The chocolate croissant is EXTRA special because it's not all bread like most places serve and has a dusting of happy powdered sugar. 😊
RECOMMEND
The food is great and you can preorder your pick up or order when you arrive.
Great selection of pastries and coffee. Skillet meals were not bad.
I've driven by Grounds for years and have always wanted to try it. Finally got around to it last year when the pandemic started, so while I've only ever done take out, I've gotten to try a good variety of things on their menu and have enjoyed everything I've had so far. The staff are always wearing masks and gloves, and there is hand sanitizer available. Their coffee and lattes are always good, as are the pastries (love the muffins), bagels, sandwiches (the veggie is my fave), and pizza! I love my variety, and this is a great spot for that. What really sets Grounds apart is that not only is the food delish, but service is always friendly as well. I like that you can also order online through their website for pick up.
