    Grilled cheese 3 of them I'm pretty sure
    James A.

    Great cozy place went with my grandma to check it out and grab breakfast I got the grilled cheese and an ice coffee. Service was fast the food was hot and it was a great experience.

    Absolutely amazing service. The owner of the shop had a great conversation with my family and treated them with great hospitality. Got the iced sea salt caramel mocha latte, 10/10. Baristas are super friendly. The owner then showed me the restaurant that's connected and shared her story of it being a family run business! Beautifully decorated with a lot of seating both indoor and outside. There's also a cute gift shop in the back.

    First time here on a recommendation. The great news, this place is awesome with a great feel and vibe. We had the Caprese and the Big Rise which were "bring me back to this place again" kinda sandwiches. We also tried the apple cider donuts. We love this kind of donut and tried them probably every where haha. Milburn is our favorite but this one here was better. Sorry no pictures of these because we were trying and kept eating. Sad news, we both ordered flavored iced lattes, and we couldn't tell the difference between the two even though they were different flavors. More pumps please. This was disappointing however the espresso used was good with the milk. In other sad news, picture posted, we sat on the comfy sofa with the coffee table that is a door and a glass top. My wife returned from getting napkins and was cut by the pointed edge of the glass top. I would highly recommend having them covered or shaved down to be rounded. This is dangerous especially to those with little ones who may be near. Be careful. I saw a lot of people with frozen drinks. We will venture back to try one of those and the ice cream thats from a creamery. Yum.

    My daughter goes to a local black box theater near by so I've popped into this place a few times. The team is always pleasant and helpful and the food is great! It has a cozy yet trendy atmosphere and there are plenty of places to sit. Even a small outside area that I have not used yet. This visit I had kids with me and they were busy but they were on top of their game. They did run out of an item I ordered but they came to our table to let me know and let me pick anything to backfill. I had an egg sandwich which was very good (sorry no pictures I was too hungry) and a chocolate scone which was amazing. Very good flavor, not too soft with a nice crust on the top. You got the butter note you should get out of a scone! The cappuccino was prepared well and I drank every last drop on our way to the theater. They also have a little shop in the back with cool local things...check it out! Definitely stop by here as this is a little gem of a place in a small town.

    This is the cutest little spot in Rising Sun. Coffee was A+ and my son really enjoyed the strawberry banana smoothie! Our barista was very friendly and patient while I ordered with a not so patient 2 year old. :-) my only wish is that the sandwich selection was larger for lunch options.

    Always a huge fan of rise and grind. Come here every time I come home. Great ambiance, great coffee and great service. You can tell all the workers care about your experience. Great hometown coffee shop. Straight out of hallmark!

    Raspberry almond tea cake

    Staying at Great wolf lodge but wanted to try a local breakfast spot. So glad we came here to Rise N Grind Cafe. The big rise and Canatabell Caprese sandwiches were delicious (scarfed them down before pic taken ) Pictured is the raspberry almond tea cake which is sublime. My husband who is not a dessert person said it was "probably one the best things I've ever had". My latte pictured below was great. I personally don't like the bitterness of coffee which this did not have at all. Smooth and not super sweet, added only one pump of hazelnut syrup. Overall definitely would recommend. The ambience and staff are an added positive bonus

    Always a treat when you go to this beautiful coffee shop in the lovely town of Rising Sun! Not just great coffee & specialty drinks but great bakery items such as our favorite, the almond croissants and cranberry muffin tops! You can also order flavored lemonade- we love the coconut and lavender! My very favorite is the chicken wrap - so good! A great place to spend time alone, or with family and friends. The seating area is small and cozy. There's also tables for outdoor seating. And they have a little shop inside with great little gift items. They also sell local wine, the cranberry is fabulous. Everyone that works there is simply wonderful. They have great Wi-Fi and you if you are lucky, you can grab a window seat and just watch the world go by. Saturday and Sundays can be kind of busy so just plan in advance. If you need to park, there is free parking on East and W. Cherry St. right around the corner. if not, there is free parking in front of the shop, but it is very limited. Definitely a place to stop for breakfast or lunch if you are in the area.

    Like the newer coffee shop they have in Elkton, this is a great coffee shop. Great drinks and very good breakfast sandwiches.

    BLUF: Go check it out, you won't regret it…read more TLDR: OMG I'm so glad I stumbled upon this adorable coffee shop on cozy Main Street in North East, MD. It was just me, so I only got half a dozen donuts with a knife so I could taste them all! I tried: Cookies & Cream, Salted Caramel, Maple Bacon, Toasted Coconut, Chai, and Fluffernuter. Let me start by saying the cake part of these donuts is just perfect. Not too dense, lightly crisp on the outside, and insanely fresh. The toppings might sound over the top, but they weren't. They were perfectly subtle to add a hint of flavor without a dose of diabetes. And the coffee- such unique lattes both in name and flavors. I went with Davy Joey's Locker with an extra shot of espresso. So good. Not overly sweet and not bitter at all. And then I just had to try the cute little pistachio cannoli. Shell was filled upon ordering, so the shell was nice and crispy. Now this was super sweet, but I haven't met a cannoli yet that wasn't! Barista was friendly & bubbly and patient when it took me some time to pick my 6 donuts. Basic tables and chairs with some bench seating along the window. Pillows & chairs could use a refresh, as well as the bathroom, looking a bit worn & dingy, but that's literally the only negative thing about this place.

    Been here a couple times. Donuts were good. I was in the area and wanted to stop by. Unfortunately…read morethis place is closed down. No signs for any renovations or opening again.
