What our customers are saying
We had a great visit to Grounded during our Glen Rose trip. The coffee was very good, and the atmosphere and service were both excellent! I really enjoyed my iced brown sugar cinnamon latte. This was a great stop before hitting Dinosaur Valley for the day, and I would recommend Grounded to anyone looking for some good coffee in Glen Rose!
Absolutely amazing! On top of the beautiful atmosphere, perfect seating options for any visitor, and wonderful customer service, the soup + salad bar and coffees are the best I’ve ever had. I hope they expand one day. I’d love to have a Grounded Coffee location closer to home!
Extremely nice coffee shop with a salad bar and great food. We were traveling through town and needed a bathroom con coffee con relaxation break. This was THE place to get all that. The staff was extremely good, and coffee was just perfect! We loved it.
Worth a stop ... maybe even a detour!
