Coffee Time

Pricy

been here for a couple of times for lunch which is alright. but their breakfast menu is better imo. they have a good selection that are not on the other cafes. pastrami on toast is amazing! the omelette and trout is nice too but pastrami one is 👍👍! cakes as always is yummy and not too sweet. especially the chiffon, it’s really light! and we had a very lovely server! good way to start the day!

Awesome venue, LOVE the orginial decor, table set up, flowers and design. Great coffee and amazing food. Highly recommend the fish super tasty! This is a very different, modern and funky place!

My friend and I had lunch here and I would say this place is a bit hyped. I mean, the ambiance is amazing, it’s like “Down the rabbit hole” effect. Love the pink hue they have over the lights, a bit hot inside, and too crowded. You could literally read what’s on next table person’s phone. I didn’t want to be creepy, but you got it. The lady who took care of our seats wasn’t that friendly. She didn’t greet us or smile. The staff were really nice.

I totally agree with any comments stating it's too crowded. It seems like always busy, all day. It's not spacious but has a vintage vibe compared to another The Grounds. It's a brunch restaurant with sweet location in the city, so the price is expectedly a bit high. Service is good but staffs are really busy and a bit hard to call them over to order. I love their dishes, especially their cakes. It's a large portion that can share for 2.
