Description

Smack in the middle of the busiest stretch of Highland, Common Grounds is always bustling, the mismatched tables and chairs throughout the eclectically decorated rooms full of grad students, professionals, neighborhood residents and other visitors. The space is especially cozy in winter; in the summer, there's also sidewalk seating. Originally intended as an alternative to the bar scene, the coffeehouse has since acquired a liquor license that allows it to pour beer and wine. But there's still a big lineup of coffee and espresso drinks made from beans that come from Common Grounds' own roastery, Highland Coffee & Tea. And there are plenty of food choices, including soups, salads, pastries and sandwiches.

  • 2000 | Best chai

    What's a coffeehouse doing making such a great cup o' tea? That's what we wanted to know, and here's the answer: Mary and Lisa Rogers, the owners of the two Common Grounds coffeeshops, are tea lovers at heart. After doing some research on the origins of chai, an Indian and Middle Eastern drink made from spiced tea and steamed milk, they decided that the only way to do it was the right way. And so Common Grounds's barristas don't reheat bottled chai syrup as they would at most places, but... More »
