Cool trendy coffee locale. Probably fine for most. They don't always carry a full menu, so may be hit or miss if you go in. Tried to order a cuban coffee but was told they didn't have the condensed milk to make it. Got something else. It was good.
Pleasant atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious coffee. Also a great study spot. Would definitely recommend!
Good music and staff. I wish there were a few more treats, but that's just my opinion.
I'm extremely dissatisfied with how the common grounds are now, it used to be so cool. It used to have a lot of cool graffiti and art on the wall, that's what made it the Common grounds after all! Even more so I can't go up stairs to study anymore with my friends so I most likely won't come here again.
First off, this is not my preferred coffee house. I received a gift card to CG a while back. I decided to use it last week and was informed that the gift card system had changed and that I would have to call someone to see about transferring to new card. When I called I was informed that there was nothing they could do since they switched ownership and no longer have access to the system. I was told that they had signs posted to inform customers but in this case made no difference since I don't go there. The latte that I did get on the day that I was told my gift card wasn't valid was mediocre at best, stale coffee, and weak flavors. There are much better coffee houses in Lexington to go to.
I've been visiting Common grounds for the last 5 years and even though it's been through some changes, they have still kept the same menu and atmosphere. I always get a grasshopper or mudslide and they are delicious Everytime!
Awesome cafe! I really recommend their Denver Burrito and specialty coffees! The atmosphere of the shop is great and intriguing. And it makes a great place to get work done too!
Great coffee shop to grab caffeine, breakfast, and get work done! Extensive and tasty menu. I highly recommend the specialty coffees and the breakfast burritos.
Love this little artsy coffee shop near University of Kentucky. Open mike night once a week, chess boards, local art work, great service. Parking could be a challenge but generally not bad.
Great atmosphere, nice coffee. (House coffee a bit bitter for my liking, but others may love it.) The prices are reasonable as well. Should be on your list for a break from the mega corporate culture of a certain famous coffee chain... A nice place to send an hour or so...
Very friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Love the decor, too. Nice little live piano performance going this evening. ❤️
Common Grounds serves the best coffee in town. Simple as that. The crew is knowledgeable when it comes to service, sense of urgency, and coffee. I never wait more than 5-10 minutes for my drink. The people working there are quick, polite, and all around amazing. I have found my new favorite spot for coffee!
Nice indie coffee place that seems to have been around for a long time. Glad to see these types of places outside of NY.
This is a quaint coffee shop.in Lexington. Great atmosphere. The people that work there are super nice.
