Taking over the space of the larger and sorely missed Miles Coffee Bar, Grounds Donut House is a walk-in and walk out with their signature pink box of uniquely, creative donuts. Large donut varieties are prepared daily. With a weekly rotation of inventive flavored combinations. Grounds Donut House has contrasting aesthetics, with its well represented hints of NYC and cartoon charactered graffiti wall. The rest of the space is surrounded by vibrant pink and green colors. Pretty cool contrast. Grounds tasty donuts are served by their friendly and helpful staff. Stop by and pick up a treat. TIP: Limited outdoor seating only (Weather Permitting)

The donuts are light fluffy yeast (which in itself is actually flavorful) and the glaze and toppings are creative and delicious. My all time favorite is the Cinnamon Sugar but on occasion you can find specialty donuts like the out of this world Guava & Cheese . The place is well decorated great for social media post and the staff are always cool. The iced lattes here are also the Miles has my heart whenever I'm in NYC.

AMAZINGLY fresh donuts. Made on premises. Soft, fluffy, not greasy. Service is friendly and quick. Ambiance is awesome. Small but tidy, clean and hip.

Grounds is a small shop but big flavors. Staff was fast with service and the cafe Cubano I had was perfection. Sweet yet strong. As for donuts there are so many options and honestly hard to choose but in a good way. The cinnamon bun donut was by far my favorite. Tastes exactly like a cinnamon roll with the lightness of a donut. The perfect pairing with their amazing coffee.

Treat yourself to a visit to this donut bakery! The shop radiates warmth the moment you step in, with a festive glow, inviting decor, helpful staff and a welcoming aromas that make you want to sample every flavor as you feast your eyes on the varieties of donuts. Each donut tastes crafted with quality ingredients- vanilla bean, rich cocoa, and jelly fillings that are full of fruit like black raspberry and honey apple. Great for breakfast choices are their maple bacon donut with smoky-sweet crisp bacon bits on maple glaze, fruity pebbles crunch donut and coffee cake donut with streusel crunch and a moist crumbs. For creamy donut lovers, the requisite boston cream donut delivers a lush custard center and a not too sweet chocolate glaze, and the tres leche donut is ambrosian, milky and rich. There is always a nod to the current time of the year- it's back to school now, autumn leaves, crisp air and the shop is featuring apple cider, pumpkin glazed, and coconut macaroon donuts. Some of the adventurous flavors are easily recognizable standouts from classic sweet comforts like cookies and cream, peanut butter oreo, or my fave, samoa donuts with chocolate icing, toasted coconut and caramel drizzle. My Mr. is all about the caramel chocolate pretzel donut. As a precautionary measure, my friends and I have taken to going halfsies rather than consuming a whole donut apiece to better sample the varieties without turning into a dozen donuts ourselves. Good thing too as we've discovered the other two locations in the Putnam and Fairfield areas we frequent. If you're stocking up for a gathering or treating family and friends, this bakery has you covered. Highly recommended for anyone who wants an above average donut experience or needs a sweet gift that is unique, thoughtful, and tailored to the tastes of the season.

Grounds is a welcomed Bronx addition. Their donuts are inventive and very good. I was happy to have had a chance to try them out. I picked up a bacon and maple donut for hubby to try and it was really tasty. Not too sweet, with just the right amount of bacon. Their drinks are good also. They have bursting boba and lemonade, if you're not looking for caffeine. Their lattes are interesting. Owner, Stephanie, and her baristas, were very welcoming. I'll definitely be back.

My son is obese with trying donuts. Service was outstanding. Donuts where extremely fresh and not too sweet. Love my Blueberry Cheesecake Donuts. Extremely clean

Love the donuts too delicious. It was ordered from uber eats, from my coworker for my early b day gift. I was so excited. The service is always great. I've haven't been to the actual store yet but I definitely love the donuts. Try them all so far so good with all the choices I had today

This might just be the cutest and swankiest little donut shop I've stumbled upon in a while! There's a sweet setup with two chairs and a table outside--just enough to enjoy the moment. I got to witness the most heartwarming scene: a dad and his daughter sharing donuts together--seriously, melted me. I went with the coffee donut and WOW... it was absolutely delicious. They had a tempting variety, but I kept it simple this time and was not disappointed. The coffee? Just the right balance--smooth and satisfying. Customer service? Impeccable. The young lady behind the counter was so kind and helpful, instantly making the whole place feel warm and welcoming. And can we talk about the decor?! LOVE. It's bright, colorful, and full of personality--just like the vibe of the shop. I'll definitely be back!

So I'm not an ordinary caffeine guy, but my girlfriend runs on coffee so when you add that to the very unorthodox but amazing selection of donuts & sweets they got here, it's a pretty good combo!! Plus it's in my neighborhood and I'm all about supporting small local biz!! Staff are always welcoming & such a vibe with their energy and the hidden gem vibe makes it worth the while.

Good coffee, lots of crazy flavors if you're looking for something sweet. Great donuts, they had some original flavors and the classics. Staff was very kind!

After an initial Yelp pick-up event, I've visited this business at least once a week. The donut flavors change constantly so I have to try them all. This week's selection are Lemon Cheesecake, Blueberry Cheesecake, Carrot cake and Rainbow cannoli cream. Coffee, lattes and sandwiches are also on the menu. Great customer service. See you next week.

Cute decor inside the shop

I heard about this donut shop on social media, and after seeing the pictures of the food they sold I had to go check it out. And I wasn't disappointed! Upon entering the shop the fresh baked donut aroma had my mouth watering. The service was great. The young lady who prepared my Dubai pistachio chocolate latte was so friendly (and helpful with selecting my donuts) that I returned for more coffee and donuts the next day. The donuts I would compare to a taste of heaven... DIVINE! not overly sweet, light and fluffy. I ordered 6 donuts and a medium size coffee for about $35. Let me not forget that the shop's decor was so sweet and I laughed out loud at the sign hanging... "I Licked It, So It's Mine!" The neighborhood was busy but I was able to find parking spots on both days that I visited.

Are there vegan options available here?

Since they have been open, they have not had vegan options. I'm sure as they get more established, they will.

The menu has options for coffee and tea lovers alike. My go to order has been Iced Matcha. It's high quality Matcha and mixed well. They do serve it unsweetened but they have simple syrup and sugar at a stand by the door if you want to add it yourself. I have also tried the seasonal coffee flavors; all were hits. The pastries are freshly baked and they sell some artisanal snacks too. My favorites pastries are the almond croissant and cheese danish but you can't go wrong with any of the choices. There has not been a time I've come by and received poor customer service. The staff is genuinely kind. If you're in the neighborhood or just want to pop by this quaint cafe, I'd highly recommend it. P.S. They have a few tables outside when the weather is warmer.
