    Snickerdoodle iced latte
    Jose M.

    On one particular morning, we wanted to try out a new coffee shop. Some coworkers had been talking about The Grind Coffee House, so we decided to give it a try. When I got there, the dining area was pretty full, and you could tell it's a place where people like to spend time hanging out with friends over coffee. The atmosphere felt lively and welcoming. They had a lot of coffee options, with various syrups and milk choices, plus a small selection of pastries. I went with a snickerdoodle iced latte, while my wife tried an iced peanut butter latte. To be honest, the coffee itself wasn't too impressive for me--it even tasted a bit watered down once the syrup was added. Maybe it was just my drink choice, and I'd be open to trying something different next time. That said, the customer service was great. Everyone was friendly, and our order was fulfilled promptly, which definitely made the experience better overall.

    Two small drinks and two sandwiches took over 30 minutes -- with seven employees behind the counter. The delay wasn't due to being busy, but to staff spending more time chatting than working. On top of the wait, the drinks weren't good. Won't be back. I'll stick with Six Beans Coffee Co., where service is fast, friendly, and the quality is consistently excellent.

    Breakfast Croissant Sandwich with turkey, egg, and mozzarella cheese

    I was in the Apple Valley area getting some check-ins done. The Grind made my day so I decided to offer my support and patronage. At first sight, I saw tons of outside patio seating with music playing through some speakers. I said cool! Upon entry, it felt very warm and welcoming with some nostalgia. Maybe it was the wood decor. Loungers, tables, and chairs were available inside. I loved the country like ambiance! I had lost my voice recently so it was hard for me to speak, but I did my best. This was my first time here so I didn't know what they offered. By the looks of the menu, it's a coffee/tea/sandwich shop with hot/cold drinks, breakfast items, pastries, and snacks. I chose the breakfast sandwich with turkey, egg, and cheese croissant. You have a choice of different meats, cheese, and bread... it's like "build your own" sandwich the way you like it. That's flexibilty! Sweet! The lady behind the register recommended medicine ball (I think it comes with mint, lemon, honey, tea) to help soothe the throat. I gave it a try. It was really warm and soothing. Thank you miss! My croissant was very tasty. Good portions of turkey. Eggs were a little runny just perfectly cooked. Cheese was melty and stringy just the way I like it. However, the presentation of the croissant was not the greatest. It was a little flat. No big deal, but just a little surprised. I'm used to plump croissants not flatten ones... that's all LOL. I ate out in the patio seating area on a clear sunny day. Overall, it was a nice and pleasant visit. I would come back again. Thank you The Grind!!!

    This was my second time here. The space is clean, the baristas are friendly and it seems like a great place to study, read or catch up with friends. Their pastries are good, I ordered a chocolate muffin for my son and a banana muffin for myself. I love that they have kids size drinks. My only critic is that their coffees are SO sweet. I kindly asked them if they can remake my coffee as it was way too sweet for me. They were very nice and accommodating and made me a new drink. That drink was just as sweet, it tasted like I was drinking syrup and milk. It just wasn't my preference. If you love sweet coffees then you'll love their lattes. I would come back, but next time I would ask for suggestions on a not-so-sweet coffee.

    I came to visit family and found this shop while out and about! The employees are so nice and had great recommendations, when i wasn't sure what to try. there was so many options of drinks and food, i ended up getting something new everytime! Wished I lived closer during school because it would be such a cute place to study in!

    Had a bagel with Swiss, turkey, and egg & the strawberry cobbler bar, both were very delicious. The staff is very helpful and helping decide what to order, and they will bring your order to you whether you're standing, sitting or waiting outside. I went at 11 AM and it was pretty busy, lots of people sitting and hanging out, there is also outside seating as well. Lots of homemade knickknacks to purchase. The Grind has a very cozy feel with friendly staff and customers.

    Seattle freeze with oreos and a blended vanilla latte with oreos. However, you can see the color difference

    What happened to this place? Used to come here more often. Come Sept 2025, told that management changed in July and my points disappeared. The shift lead, Bri, took the order and said I newly signed up, but the last time I was here whuch was after July, my points were still showing up. I ordered a blended vanilla latte with oreos and which clearly did not have oreos. I ordered another drink with oreos and compared the two. I showed Bri and the guy who made it and they laughed and they were gossiping about the situation before they came to the counter. They remade my drink but it was even worse, it wasn't blended well and they forgot to add the espresso pictured below. What happened to friendly staff? The current staff are immature and don't take accountability for their actions. Terrible service and drinks. They didn't deserve the tip I gave them.

We stopped by around 11:00-11:30 a.m., thinking the morning rush would be over, but the place was still packed. After trying it, I can definitely see why. They had already sold out of all their pastries, which says a lot about how busy they are, but the coffee was amazing. I ordered the iced maple salt latte with oat milk, and it was so good. My son got the bourbon caramel latte, and he loved his too. The shop itself is small, but there is plenty of seating both inside and outside. What impressed me most was that there were only two employees working, and they handled the crowd incredibly well. They kept things moving, acknowledged customers as they came in and when it was their turn to order, and were still kind and friendly. The café was also very clean and well kept. For there to be only two people working and the crowd they had at 11 o'clock, I'm sure it had probably been busy all morning. Even so, everything was clean and organized. Great coffee, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

Also, I would say this place probably has the best cafe matcha in the High Desert. Compared to everywhere else, the matcha flavor is strong and smooth, but it does taste homemade. The taro latte could use a lot of work. It tastes like melted vanilla ice cream. It can take a minute to get your drinks and order, but I think it's totally worth it to support the local businesses.

She saw us walk in, and it took about 5 minutes before she acknowledged us and said she'd be with us. We honestly didn't mind waiting at first, but while standing there we could hear her personal conversation on the phone. At first we thought it was work related or maybe she was taking an order, but she was actually giving someone directions on how to post photos on her damn IG .SMH. When she finally took our order, one of my friends asked questions about the drink she wanted, and the employee was pretty short with her answers. My friend ended up getting what seemed like strawberry milk instead of the coffee drink with strawberry foam/syrup she expected, so unfortunately her drink was kind of a mess. Me and my other friend got the Seattle Freeze, and that was actually really good super delicious. We sat down and about 10minutes later she went right back on the phone. Another customer came in a couple with their kid and this time she clearly saw them walk in. The customers stood there waiting and looking at her, but she still didn't acknowledge them. Then she says whoever she was talking to on the phone..." Oh...customers just walked in" when the customers had literally been standing there already watching her. This is unprofessional ..customers were not a priority at all. The wait itself wasn't the issue, it was more the fact that she didn't seem to care.

We were really looking forward to a solid caffeine break... but unfortunately, it didn't quite hit the mark. I ordered a vanilla frozen coffee, and it honestly tasted like... nothing. It lacked sweetness, flavor depth, and that strong coffee kick you expect from a frozen drink. It just felt very flat. My husband got the Spanish latte, which should have been rich and slightly sweet with condensed milk flavor but instead, it tasted watered down. It didn't have that bold espresso taste we were hoping for. We also grabbed a cinnamon roll, which I was genuinely excited about. Sadly, that might have been the biggest letdown. It was cold, dry, and just not good. The texture and flavor were off honestly one of the worst cinnamon rolls I've had. When you're on a road trip, you want that warm, comforting pastry moment... and this wasn't it. Maybe it was an off day, but overall the drinks lacked flavor and the pastry missed the mark. It wasn't terrible service-wise just disappointing from a quality standpoint. Would I stop again on another road trip? Probably not. There are just too many great coffee spots out there to settle for something this underwhelming.

No, I could place a second order to get the fried rice. Ok, whatever, I'll take the steamed rice. The Orange Chicken was like rubber. I tried to bite a piece in half and it wouldn't pull apart, so the whole piece went in my mouth and I had to use my fingers to pull it apart which was embarrassing on a first date! It didn't taste good either. I looked for a knife in the plastic silverware, but there was none. I then went for a bite of the rice and it was so stuck together that I really had to jam my fork into it. It had no flavor at all and I was not offered any kind of sauce for it. I got some salt, but it didn't help. It had obviously been in a cup and turned over on a plate (there was no bowl) so I don't see why they couldn't have substituted the fried rice. The carrots were rubbery too. The only thing half way good was the broccoli. I opted for water to drink because I couldn't see paying over $6 for flavored ice tea. I didn't want my date to feel bad for buying me such a horrible meal, so I managed to get a couple of bites down. He asked if I wanted a box. No, but I said yes, again not wanting him to feel bad. I tried the Orange Chicken again when I got home, using my paring knife, and it was still so bad that I threw the whole thing away. There were only 6-8 people in the place, but it was so noisy that I had to keep asking my date to repeat what he said because I couldn't hear him. I was looking forward to a new place to eat and the online menu looked so great... How sad.
