Common Grounds Coffee House

All food on premises is homemade. Wide variety of lattes, and has a soup and sandwich menu. Nice atmosphere high school and college age hang out. There are also non dairy options for milk substitutes.
Brea and Tara provided excellent service.
Must try their buckeye latte in winter and frozen hot chocolate in summer.

An amazing coffee shop that cares about the customer. Have a large variety of drinks and if you like something that isn’t offered they will work with you to make a very similar drink if not exactly like it. They roast their coffee beans in house along with many other sauces, syrups and foods. If something is not exactly how you wanted it, they are always willing to correct. Free WiFi is a plus in a cool building with wood floors, brick walls, and kind workers with a small town feel. Check it out! If you like drip coffee, the bottomless cup is a must

They have frappé on the menu a sure sign of bad coffee when you want to imitate McDonald’s! So I just shared a hot chocolate with my wife. … they messed up hot chocolate!!! I watched them and they essentially made a hot chocolate latte which was terrible. It was all foamed milk and the part that was chocolate was bitter. I would suggest anyone who appreciates starbucks quality or better coffee should avoid this place. If you like McDonald’s quality that is more expensive but has a nicer atmosphere this is a good stop.

For the prices, I would expect a much better product as well as correct orders. I ordered a pumpkin pie latte… I ended up getting something with no pumpkin flavor, but perhaps a touch of mocha??? Whatever it was, it wasn’t even close. It has a nice quiet atmosphere, but I wouldn’t suggest going there just for the drinks.

Great atmosphere! Has good service, a slim menu with great choices for food, and the drinks are yummy! A fun place to go to chat with friends over coffee!

Gotta support the local coffee house! Loved the white chocolate mocha… Monday is Mocha Madness with all mochas on sale. Nice.

This coffee house starts with quality locally roasted beans; however, their technique is not good. I tend to order an Americano at new coffee shops, because they are impossible to mess up. Well, I was wrong. When the grounds are not packed and under filled, then you end up with one grainy, dirty cup of brown water. Also, my wife’s speciality drink sounded amazing in their menu; however, again execution was the lacking ingredient.
Perhaps with some better employee training, this could be a quality coffee house, but for now, just buy the beans and make your own brew at home.

The drinks were tasty but incorrect. I ordered a caramel frappé made with skim milk… it was made with half and half, possibly cream. He ordered an iced triple espresso with vanilla made with half & half… it was made with heavy cream and for some reason the register lady had a hard time understanding and it took her over a minute to input the order and she kept asking if he wanted a little cup. Why?
But…friendly enough people. Service not quick when they’re busy. If it’s important to you to get your drink made a certain way, you may want to stay by the counter and watch them make it. Cute little coffee house on Bluffton’s charming Main St. There were signs up promoting their grinders (hot sandwiches) and the baked goods looked good, but we were on our way to a birthday BBQ so we didn’t eat anything.

One of my childhood hang-​outs. I remember when it first opened on Main St and Vine. I know that they moved it over to Main St and Cherry because they wanted more room and all that, but I miss the atmosphere at the other place. Drinks are still good. People are still super inviting (that’s Bluffton for ya). I know the new owners are working their butts off and I appreciate the effort.
This is a place I will come back to every time I visit.

Really nice people! Good coffee and the food has been recommended to me even though I’ve never tried it. If you are driving down 75 and are looking to sit and have a cup of coffee. This is your place. Cute town too!
