What Laura Higgins doesn't like about Uncommon Grounds Coffee:
Would be great if they opened at 6 like it says. It is 6:15 with a line of people waiting outside and the lights aren?t even on. Wish I could say this was a rare occurrence but it happens every time I come. Some day another bagel place will open andmaybe this place will value the time of their customers. Gotta be to work at 6:30 still not open at 6:20. View all feedback. What Annie likes about Uncommon Grounds Coffee:
OUTSTANDING FOOD SERVICE. I highly recommend the food, soup, and coffee and will return here as often as I can. I had the chipotle sweet potato soup, pumpernickel bagel and the Timor organic coffee ... as a result I simply HAD to purchase a pound of the Timor coffee to take home! Thank you Mike for your brilliant coffee suggestion on a BOLD, SMOOTH coffee to try! You totally nailed it buddy! View all feedback.

I really want to like the coffee here but every single time I’ve gone the milk is burnt and it ruins the flavor of the coffee. The bagels are amazing though.

Uncommon, more like underrated! Their filthy chia is amazing! Bit of chocolate, bit of chia and a shot of house roast. Greatest drink yet!
