Grind Coffee Company BAD CHOICE! NO STARS! WASTE of MONEY!…read more A horrible disappointment! Never again! I was genuinely excited to try the coffee here. I stated to the young lady at the counter that this was my first time patronizing the business and that I was looking forward their offerings. She looked at the other young lady at counter and rolled her eyes and just smirked. I asked her for some recommendations... their signature coffees, what they're known for, and customer favorites. She rolled her eyes again and with a smirk stated that "these are good" as she pointed to a piece of paper with a list of drinks that she pushed across the counter. She didn't make any recommendations, just read this. Noting her dismissive attitude, I just ordered my plain coffee which took almost 10 minutes. I paid for my coffee and went on to my meeting. I took a sip and realized that was not what I ordered. She did not serve me coffee she served some kind of chai nasty tasting mess with almond milk. I had to throw it out. Needless to say the $7.00 would've been better spent somewhere else. I don't feel valued as a customer at this place. I can't take them seriously, if they can't even be courteous enough to listen to the order, and ensure it was right. Such a shame, it truly was a lost opportunity to be welcoming, and willing to take me from first time customer to loyal customer. Failed at delivering an amazing customer service experience. Well as the saying goes, "You get what you paid for", I sure did! There are better places to get a Great cup of coffee... go there instead. Too bad for the owner that this person is the face of the business and a poor representative of the business. I guess we know now what NOT to expect from grind coffee company.

Even my wife who hates "latte" drinks and always just orders drip and almond milk totally loved that you guys frothed her regular drink but didn't dress it all up for her.

Glad I stopped by…read more Cute coffee shop with tables as well as open bar seating. The shop was busy on a Friday. Lots of office workers doing work remote as well as college students studying. Cold brew: forgot on specific blend they were using but this was one of the best cold brews I've had to date. I also found out they are very popular for their cold brew selling by the gallon. Service was amazing, although it was busy I got my drink in about a min. I was well taken care of and the workers were really knowledgeable about their grounds which is a bonus! Highly recommend this place if you want cold brew or if you need some where to do work. I will make sure to stop by next time I'm in the valley

I came here for a quick breakfast before seeing my sister a few days ago…read more The staff were really nice and helped me decide. Sadly, the coffee was very weak. I forgot what coffee it was. The sandwich was dense and had a nice kick. But it was really small. It also comes with chips. The place is huge and there are some music instruments in a small stage area. It looks like they do nightly events. During the day time, it seems like a good place to study or work. But.. coffee is.... Nothing special and taste pretty weak. Parking is free and out front .
