I wanted to like this place and got extremely excited passing it while going into work hoping I found a hidden gem. I went in and the energy was just.. off.. I went to order and told the young lady I had never stopped in before and asked if she had recommendations on what I'd like based on what I'd order somewhere else. She seemed annoyed, so I just ordered a basic Carmel iced coffee. She then gave me a hot coffee where I nicely told her it was supposed to be iced, once again I got attitude with that. After I got my correct coffee I was so flustered I didn't even stay inside and drank my coffee in the car.

I'm actually not a coffee drinker myself, but I had friends visiting and wanted to try some local coffee shops. Grounded coffee was one that we hit, loved how airy and bright it was? The decor is great. Whether you're trying to have a conversation and chat trying to get some work done. I'm definitely going to be coming back We all ordered something to eat as well as something to drink. Favorite service was wonderful

I wanted to try local coffee shops in the area and this shop popped up. Unfortunately I wasn't able to enjoy a drink inside, so I ordered drinks to go. The place was homey with plenty of seating. I was expecting to pick up my drinks at the counter but the staff brought all the drinks to me and all packed up. The Florist had the perfect ratio of coffee, lavender, and honey. The temperature could have been served hotter. It was however safe to consume immediately without burning yourself. I would like to come back again and try other drinks.

Weird little coffee shop. When we pulled into the parking lot, we thought we had the wrong address. It is located in a medical building and once we found the entrance, we were impressed by the ample parking and by the super clean interior of the shop.One thing that we immediately noticed: this place was almost overly quiet. There were lots of people working and even with the bits of noise contributed by them, it just felt too quiet. The music definitely could have been turned up a few notches. Otherwise, the atmosphere is great.I loved my coffee, I got "The Pumpkin" and really enjoyed their homemade pumpkin syrup. Food, on the other hand, was super lacking. We both ordered something: my friend got the breakfast sandwich and I got the tacos. Both were served cold and very bland. We would not order food again here.

Okay first the pros I really love the variety of coffee offered, especially for the seasonal drinks. We tried the dirty luck and the pick me up they were both very very good. Even though that kind of took over the pick me up it was still a good iced coffee That chocolate mint cake tasted amazing, and was very moist when they warmed it up The staff are super sweet and the decor inside is beautiful. They have Wi-Fi and would be a great study spot for any of the local college kids or even a mom looking to read a book quietly lolFrom the outside, you can't tell this is actually a coffee spot it blends in with the medical building maybe if they put some sort of Decour outside it would helpThe prices are a little high for amount served in my opinion The other thing that they could improve on is packaging I really enjoyed the cake I tried however, it was very tricky to eat. They should have wrapped it in wax paper or maybe put it in a plastic container. It stuck to the bag and I had chocolate everywhere lol. But the flavor made up for the mess Overall definitely worth a stop

After charging at Patrick Henry, I wanted to grab a tea latte. This should've been an obvious find, but I went round and round before catching this. It's attached to a medical office and you can't see it until you're on it. Stepping inside, it's a chic, modern shop that looks like it fell out of Pottery Barn's younger decor shop. Clean, airy, and cozy seating. I got a London fog and we all picked out pastries. I forgot to ask for oat milk, so the latte was a bit off for me. Totally my fault and I'd go back to get it right and try it out. The pastries were delightful! Even the little one kept chowing down. This is a much needed coffee shop in the area, so I'm glad it seems to have a good following. Will try it again when in the area.

I finally checked out Grounded Coffee recently. It's a cute little shop located on the bottom floor of an office building. It has a nice, calming vibe with neutral tones. There is a mix of tables and chairs, with two couch seating areas and one large communal table for meetings. My favorite spot was the couch in the front with a gorgeous driftwood-like coffee table. Super cozy. There are also power bars that line the main wall, so great for teleworking!I had one of their seasonal drinks, the eggnog latte. I love eggnog, so this was great with the right amount of spice. I also ordered the chocolate croissant that they had in their case, which is sourced from Indulge Bakery in Hilton Village in NN. The croissant was pretty good too. I'll have to pass by the bakery on another visit to the peninsula. Being located in an office building, I thought the place would be bustling with people, but it was pretty quiet, so this made the perfect teleworking spot for me. The staff there were friendly and attentive. I would definitely go back to work there if I find myself on that side! I've also heard that their food was decent, so I'll be sure to try some on future visits and I'll report back.Stay safe, Friends!

Pretty cool place! The service was great! The staff showed me their coffee specials, and they had all kinds of goodies in the display case. The carrot cake muffins were amazing! They were moist, and wait for it - gluten-free!!! The Brekkie bagel sandwich I had was decent. It had cheese, egg, bacon, and this tomato spreadMy latte was delicious and oh so pretty! They have lots of tables, chairs, lounge areas - it could definitely be a great place to meet up with friends, grab some java, and hang out.

I was struggling with acid reflux and needed a bite. Grounded Coffee fulfilled this need!Avo Toast was sooooo delicious and totally worth the nearly $8. They have such unique coffee drinks (see photo), except the first sip was so sweet and then you don't taste much of the settle flavors due to the over powering notes of the espresso. Lots of parking. The shop is located at the Costal Virginia surgery center. Thankfully, I decided to try this shop on a Saturday because it took 20 minutes...

I visited Grounded Coffee for a quick caffeine fix and a bite to eat. What I really liked was its modern aesthetic. I haven't seen many places like it in Newport News. It seems this coffee shop is a calm workspace as many other patrons were working on their laptops. The baristas were very friendly and welcoming! I'm not that into coffee but it looks like that gave a decent selection of coffee options. I had the chicken salad sandwich. I thought pretty solid sandwich served on a croissant. I can't really say the same for the iced matcha latte I ordered. I could barely taste any matcha, idk if it was just mostly milk or diluted since it was iced, but it was not like any matcha I've had in Richmond Va for example. Overall, I had a good experience. Maybe my matcha order was a one time thing so I'd consider visiting again and order a different drink.
