Highly recommend this coffeehouse for causal dining any time of day. The atmosphere is open welcoming, light, and... comfortable. The food was delicious. The coffee was fantastic. We ordered the eggs Benedict, the southern grits bowl, yogurtparfait the Nutter butter cookie, and the vegan cake pop. The eggs Benedict was slightly overcooked, but still delicious. Theflavor profile was a symphony of creamy, smooth textures, with a crisp Gluten Free toast underneath. They carry Gluten Freebread to accommodate those with the allergy. The hollandaise sauce by itself is worth the order. The Nutter butter cookie wasvery good but I felt was a little overly sweet which made it hard to finish. That?s not to say we didn?t enjoy every bite wetook. The vegan cake-pop was a complete surprise. I?ve had mini vegan meals and desserts before and nothing has tasted ?normal?until now. It was a decadent delight with a crisp, chocolate outer shell with a traditionally tasting fluffy cake mixtureinside. The Southern Grits Bowl was the shinning VIP of our meal. Cheesy, bacony goodness topped with a yolky egg, green onion,on a bed of yummy grits. The flavors married so well together. Now on too the coffee! Can I say it was good? Nope, it was Sooomuch better than good! We ordered a cappuccino, a latte, and a chai tea latte with a shot of espresso. Since I didn?t try any ofthe other coffees, I will be speaking about the chai tea latte. It was silky, smooth, spiced flavor that reminds me of theholidays. Very nice coffee notes from the shot of espresso but nothing too overwhelming. The foam on top was airy and tickledyour lips as you drink it making for a fun drink. All in all, we give this coffeehouse a five star rating. We did have the oneissue with the overcooked eggs, but with all the flavors that were there, we couldn?t do anything less. We will be returningvery soon. Read more

Tyler and his crew were phenomenal. We had to pick up last minute coffee for a wedding day brunch, and they were able to finish... a large order in 20 minutes when no one else in the area could. They went above and beyond in getting us taken care of, andincluded all the things we needed to keep the wedding party caffeinated! The coffee was great and very reasonably priced. Ihighly recommend their business for both the coffee and the people. Thanks guys!! Read more

Great atmosphere, location, service and food/drink. I'd been wanting to try this place for a while and finally made it in. I... loved the design of the building and the way they decorated it. The staff was smiling, helpful and friendly. Quick service anddelicious food. I got the french toast latte with oatmilk and it was gorgeous. The only thing that was a bit of a bummer was thereception. Wifi was locked and I could barely get any cell service. But over all it was great and I'm excited to try more! Read more

I love coming here with my family and to work. My favorite here is the pancakes and of course all the pastries. The latte with... vanilla syrup is my go to coffee. They also have water available that is always nice and cold. The building is very spacious ifyou come in with a large party. I recommend going early to get good parking and seating. Read more

(Updated from 4 stars to 5...the employees' interaction with customers has greatly improved since my initial review. Thanks... SG!) I love visiting Southern Grounds. Although this location is the newest, and I gave others 5 stars, this spot doesn't seemto have the same "vibe" that I'm used to. The food is still wonderful, and the store itself is beautiful. There's even agallery attached next door. But I miss the banter with employees which was the norm before Covid. Now I feel like I'm just beingherded through a line. Other than that, everything is perfect. The staff is hardworking and friendly! Read more
