While having some work done on my truck, my wife and I stopped at Common Ground for breakfast…read more Here's what I observed: The diner is physically small (30x40 maybe?), but well set up with a divider that avoids that warehouse ambiance that I don't like. It can easily seat about 50 people, plus an outside uncovered seating area that will accommodate another 50 in nice weather. The server took our drink order right after our arrival, but we had to send the coffee back because it was too cold. About ten minutes later, she took our order. There were 17 people in the restaurant, in two groups, so, the delay was not too bad. The prices are very reasonable. I became apprehensive about the food quality at these prices, but 17.5 minutes later my Western Omelette arrived, and it was delicious. My wife's eggs, bacon, and grits were also good (they serve a generous portion of grits in a bowl). The attentiveness of the servers needs some work. During the hour we were there, she checked on us only once, but she was close enough we could wave her over if we needed something. Overall, I would recommend "Common Ground" for a reasonably priced breakfast that meets usual expectations for breakfast fare. Don't stop here if you are in a hurry, but expect friendly servers to eventually bring you a breakfast worth waiting for.

They're quick and I never feel like I overdid it when I stop by during a lunch day. Staff is super friendly, and there's plenty of parking. Everything is reasonably priced as well. I feel this place is forgotten about sometimes, but I love it.

Such an adorable little shop!…read more We stopped by while visiting my brother up in Blackshear. We're from South Florida, but we're always trying to explore local coffee shops - and we're so glad we tried out The Book & Bean! It's a cozy little shop with countless books to read. It has a nice setup, and although they told us they're still trying to get things organized, it had all the space necessary to sit down, enjoy a nice meal and a nice book. Surprised to see it had a drive-thru - so convenient for the locals!! Hard to come by a great coffee shop where you can either dine-in or use the drive-thru. That's amazing. The staff was so very friendly and helpful. They were on top of every little detail and assisted us with any questions we may have had. We've been to a lot of coffee shops where they just could not get a latte right - but The Book & Bean got it RIGHT! We all ordered different lattes and they were delicious, steamed to the perfect temperature, and they were the perfect level of sweetness. We have our own coffee business down here in Broward, and we are just so glad when we come across perfect like coffee shops like this one. If I lived here, I'd come walking every day, lol. We also all ordered breakfast sandwiches and the donuts, and they were so yummy! We left full and satisfied. Thank you to The Book & Bean for providing us with a great breakfast and a great time. We can't wait to come back the next time we visit the adorable town of Blackshear!

The smoothies are tasty, too. The prices are reasonable, making the drinks easily worth the price. I dropped a star for business hours. At the time of this review, the hours are Monday 2-5, Tuesday-Friday 12-5, and Saturday 10-2. If they were open even one more hour on the evening it would be much more convenient. Also, although the sitting area is neat, there is often merchandise and other stuff from the retail store (that you walk through to get to the sitting area) laying on the tables and floor. It makes the place feel kind of cluttered. However, it's still a nice place to meet with friends and enjoy a nice cup of coffee.

But I really needed a decent coffee and so I waited the 15 minutes for my latte. They could do a better job of pre-ordering and getting people moving. Otherwise, it was good and I am a fan.

The girl that waited on me acted like she had been working a 24hr shift, she approached me as if she had just assumed that I hadn't of come in. Like it was an inconvenience for me to be there, and that she had to wait on me. I ordered a chocolate cake, and a Red Velvet cake, and a Dozen Doughnuts. The total came to about $54.00 dollars. I thought to myself, gee! For me to have just spent $54 bucks. You would think that they would have appreciated me more than the bad service that I received. I know that help is hard to find these days, but that girl would not be working for me. The girl at the register was very friendly and appreciative of my business.
