Best place for coffee in Carbondale. Common Grounds is a pretty simple looking place with the…read morecoffee being the main reason to come here. It also seems like a popular location to study for SIU students. Has pretty basic options along with seasonal favorites. The prices are pretty okay for around here and it's pretty good quality. Any college town needs to have a place to get coffee. It's not like there's many other good options. This is one reason why it's the best in town. Good options among the flavors. It's about $6 for a latte. The last time here I got the Black Forest Mocha. Had lots of chocolate flavor. The food options are paltry. It's about $2 for a bagel. They also have a few other things such as muffins. For this town it's not bad. It's located on East Grand Avenue at Wall Street. The main menu item is coffee, but there's bagels, plus some pastries and other things.

Easy to find in a big open lot, so it's not odd to hang around and enjoy your sips. We loved that they brew Onyx Coffee- SO good. My honey latte was so delicious, I can't wait to go back. I'd love it if they offered some more treats, but it was nice that they had a couple packaged offerings. I'll try a different drink next time for sure, though it'll be hard to pass on that honey latte, mmmm!

I really wanted to like Pipers, but unfortunately the coffee was disappointing. The drip coffee…read morelacked great flavor and was barely hot when served. It kind of tasted like burned sunflower seeds. The cappuccino was also underwhelming, with poor milk texture and an overall unpleasant flavor. I was especially surprised to see an automatic espresso machine being used at a specialty coffee roastery, as I expected a little more attention to the espresso preparation. No soap dispenser in the bathroom or any sign of soap at all was also concerning.

They sell ice cream -in a cup, sugar cone, or waffle cone- and usually have one or two flavors of sorbet (vegan; non-dairy) as well. It would awesome to see a soy-, almond-, or oat-based ice cream, too! Snacks, juice, and water are available but are pricy since they're just a small shop. Oh, and I never buy any of it because I'm not a "spicy" person, but they have all kinds of hot sauces, too, from all over. The owner has always been welcoming although he has seemed bored or just "done" some days.
