What customers say

If I had to define the place in two words: Amazingly Fresh! Amazing coffee ☕️, the best bagels 🥯, the best giant size cookies, and the healthiest available options! Try their Healthy Harvest Specialty Sandwich for $5.85: Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Cucumbers, Green Peppers, Sprouts, and Cream Cheese or Dressing.

Yes, yes, YES! A perfect bagel and coffee spot! I can’t ever say I’ve had such a perfect banana iced latte in my life! This flavor was perfect! The espresso was so smooth and creamy, and still strong! Whoever was working today did such a an amazing job! They had a big smile and helped me out with every question I had!

I absolutely love their variety of toasted bagels with all different cream cheeses. I get a new combination each time I visit, but I'm pretty partial to extra toasted everything bagels with veggie cream cheese. 🥯 yum! That and a quad espresso come in under $10 for a quick breakfast.

I can never say enough good things about uncommon grounds, everyone who works there is great and the food is always fantastic. Writing this review I'm tempted to go eat there now. Were they open at least. Edit, ate there again today. A perfect healthy harvest bagel always hits the spot!!
