I visited today and, although I don't drink coffee, they prepared a special blend of tea just for me, and it was fantastic. I also tried the blueberry scone, which was incredible. I think it might have been gluten-free, but I’ve never had a scone that wasn’t dry before, and this one was definitely moist and delicious!

I visited this charming restaurant on Sunday, and I really enjoyed my experience. The coffee was excellent, and I appreciate that the menu isn’t overwhelming. Whether you're in the mood for just a coffee or a light lunch, it's a great spot to pop into. The atmosphere is cozy and comfortable, and they even have music on Friday nights.

I spent a delightful afternoon at Breaking Grounds recently. I enjoyed a 'nutty bee ' latte as I sat by the window and it couldn 't have been more delicious! My server was gracious, the service was quick, and the atmosphere was inviting! Go to Breaking Grounds!
