[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nestled between a yoga studio and a similarly appealing restaurant, a cozy courtyard welcomes a creative cafe featuring local artisans, puzzles, and workspace.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The 'baristas' are cool but not TOO, giving good recommendations and space to be yourself. Signature drinks with Ube, Matcha, a Tres Leches Cold Brew & Masala Chai are more than enough reasons to return. My milky green pistachio latte was EXTRA sweet but complemented by whole milk & delicate rose petals - more like an experience than a drink. Blanca suggested pastries (who am I to refuse?) and I was mind-blown by THE MOST EXCEPTIONAL Almond Croissant Cookie - caramelized sugar and butter that's crisped on the edges, chewy towards a marzipan center - an absolute dream! Have friends, please ship! read more

This is a great place! We just had a great experience next door. The Ube latte I ordered was from here. So I had to check it out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is small cafe. They offer free Wi-Fi. It password protected and for customers. Please reach out to the staff for access.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I wanted to order several things to go but they mentioned that they were sold out for the day. Many of fresh baked goods are baked fresh daily and several ingredients are shipped in from out of state. She mentioned that they usually sell out by lunch time for the baked goods. Subject to change. However, they are available to make your fresh order of coffee or drinks all day long. They offer military discount and free Wi-Fi. Stop by if you are in the area.

We were at lunch and I overheard someone talking about this place. I was intrigued...so we went to check it out. Very good! Lots of interesting drinks. I got the...well I forgot what it's called but it was matcha and pistachios and quite good. I think it's called CGP matcha. It had ceremonial grade matcha, agave, cold foam, pistachio, and I got it with oat milk. We also got a couple of the almond cookies. Very very good. Very friendly and helpful staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We got our drinks to go. But the inside was super cute and fun.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm not complaining at all though! We weren't in a hurry, and we really enjoyed the vibe and had a great time with our company![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Common Ground Projects - So creamy ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

Made the mistake here of briskly approaching the counter as if I knew what I wanted, or even their menu, on my first visit. No worries! The baristas right away asked if I knew what I wanted or needed ideas, smoothly segueing into delicious creative options. I went with my usual lavender component added into staff suggestion of the mint espresso. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibes were spectacular, with a bright yet peaceful atmosphere and wall of local artist's pieces available to guests.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Employees were very polite, everything was cute and clean, and chocolate chip croissant and lattes were exquisite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thank you! read more

Common Ground Projects - Almond croissant and lavender latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ocean Springs, Mississippi

I am a coffee addict and used to be a barista in Seattle... I have tried almost every place in OS, Biloxi, and Gulfport and I'm always looking to try new ones and this.. THIS IS THE ONE. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was already taken back by how different yet warm and welcoming this place looked.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Then I got to their menu and was so happy to see menu items that I only ever saw up north, like ube lattes and endless more of their unique, stellar concoctions. They seemed serve a unique niche of heath conscious people but still meet the desire of deliciousness and basic coffee gals like myself (honey vanilla latte with oat milk...it do be my favorite) but what I valued most of all was the service. We went in a bit before they closed and the lovely young woman behind the counter gave good vibes, good convo, and good information... I should've caught her name but her mom made the pastry's that I hope to try next time! I look forward to my next experience here... I will get my coffee bestie hooked too! We are loyal customers oh and the prices... possibly the best I've seen and I will be getting one for there and another to go because of it. I will be telling everyone about y'all and bringing my family to try the place next door! read more

I loved the ambiance at Common Ground. The staff was so friendly and the design of the space is so on point. They just opened and I've already been multiple times. The "flat white" is my favorite drink. read more
