He roasts his own beans on an open fire in a big cast iron cauldron and stirs it with a big paddle that looks like a boat oar. He sent us some of this coffee and we brewed it up one morning.

Lunch at Grounds is surprisingly satisfying. Healthy choices. Plentiful servings. Quick kitchen service. And reasonable prices. Just don't tell anyone, because we've never had to wait for a table, so let's keep it a Beaverdale secret.

I love this place and learned that it is quicker to go to the UnityPoint Clinic location (entrance for the Sleep Lab) than it is to go to any other coffee shop! Easy parking, located right by the door, great coffee, great scones, and wonderful people. I was in and out faster than any Starbucks, Caribou, Dunkin Donut, drive thru! Thanks so much!

Grabbed lunch with my husband yesterday; super yummy, and a total hidden gem if you haven't stopped in for lunch!

Always enjoy stopping in Grounds for Celebration, sometimes while I am biking and just for a libation, other times for lunch. Lunch is served very elegantly, reasonably priced, excellent service. Overall, just a VERY pleasant tasty place to partake!

We went to the drive-thru this morning to start our Mothers Day weekend off right with some caffeinated beverages (myself, Mom, Grandma) and breakfast treats only to be treated rudely. The server shoved our items at us saying “Here!” There was no smile, no thank you, nothing. She was *poof* gone from the window before we could even ask for the napkins that were not included in our sack. Poor service. Won’t be spending my coffee dollars here anymore.

Didnt honor offer. St P wear green get a free med. Drink. We each came with our offers on our phones and were told nope. Wasted trip. 

Business response:

Hi there, we are sorry to hear about the experience! Spoke with the baristas and they were unsure of giving away 5 free drinks to one family in one transaction. Our bad for not communicating all disclaimers!
