Candalyn(I’m sure I butchered the spelling so I’m sorry) is the best barista ever! She makes my custom drink perfectly and always remembers my order :)! She’s always friendly and welcoming! They offer gluten free options which is important to me and they offer many tasty and healthy breakfast options. The beans are organic and many are single sourced as well. I love this place! They have stamp cards for frequent visitors as well which is a nice perk. They even have treats for your pet!

Really a treat to have a beverage here, but with nice selection of food too. The espresso is really nicely balanced as well as the quiche is, in addition, quite great. It’s a calming feeling as well as the costs are extremely competitive in comparison to other local espresso and coffee bars. Would recommend to anybody

The coffee, hot chocolate and cinnamon rolls were delicious. The counter staff was very friendly and went out of her way to warm our cinnamon roll.

The coffee was brewed to perfection and we received fast, friendly service. I absent-mindedly ordered my son a dairy steamer(forgetting his recent dairy allergy diagnosis). I remembered after we started enjoying our drinks. I went to the counter to order him a dairy free option. The barista made me new one free of charge(even though it was my fault). We will definitely be back!

This is the sweetest coffee shop ever! It was the first place I found when I moved to the springs. The baristas there are always so engaging and friendly! Great food and snacks too. Great lighting in there too for working! Definitely check this little gem out!

I came in on a unique day, as it was one of the Special Grounds’ staff members birthdays! So all of the staff/employees were writing messages for her on the chalk outside the entrance sidewalk. It was a sweet and special touch to witness! Extra points for kindness and friendliness of the staff! I ordered the mocha frappé, which was delicious! Cold and icy chocolate, blended just right! I said no to whipped cream on top, to save on a few calories! So didn’t get a good photo of it. But the drink was great! There’s free wi-fi and outdoor seating. I sat outside and did some work on my laptop for three hours! Lost track of time… it was so peaceful and a great space, roof-top covered so not too sunny where you can’t see your screen. Next time, will order the chai tea! Will definitely be back soon!

Unique flavors here including egg nog for the holidays. Peppermint was great without overly sugarly. Small place but cute. The barista also gave me a free small bean sample for my machine at home which will cause me to order directly from their roaster. Yummy!
