Good place if you’re in the area but the coffee and the selection of pastries could be better.

Well, I feel much better now that others have mentioned how rude the staff can be at Groundswell. There have been a few good baristas... So rude and passive-aggressive. It's kinda funny in a way. Today I asked for a 12oz coffee and they just shoved it at me. I said thank you, and they said nothing. They'll treat certain customers with care and respect, but I must be some kind of nobody to them.

I really wanted to like this place and have given it so many chances. The matcha and coffee are both decent, but oh boy; the staff are EXTREMELY rude! The first time I walked in with a stroller, all three staff just stood at the register staring at me judgmentally as I struggled with the door. Then one of them made a comment to another one about how much they hate making matcha as they were making my matcha. Again, I still wanted to give it a chance. So, off and on, it’s been okay, but still somewhat uncomfortable with staff. Flash forward to this past week. I go in the early morning to get a matcha and they were a little busy, and I was the last one in the bunch. I stood for over ten minutes waiting by the side of the bar where they ALWAYS place the drinks at. I then asked where the matcha was as these two baristas stood there just gossiping, not saying anything to me. One of them then says in a very rude tone, “it’s over there.” Over there meant on top of the other side of the bar near the register, where they don’t put the drinks at. Not once was I told that my matcha was over there. Furthermore, I ordered a large, and my matcha was extremely tiny. They said it was a large, but I’ve ordered the iced one before, and it was much bigger. I’m done with this place, and I really hope that management starts caring about making their customers feel welcome and invited. It has to be bad when I would rather take my business to the local Starbucks…

My Latte was really good. That's not as easy as it sounds. The staff was friendly and welcoming. Will dine again.

Hi! We have 3x6' sheets of plexi separating customers/baristas, 6ft markers on the floor to encourage social distancing, a new online ordering platform that enables ordering for contactless pickup, employees self screen before coming to work, masks required, and hand sanitizer available.
The donuts are from Do-Rite
