    Amazing coffee, great baristas, and great service. We were visiting when we found this place. Went there 2 days back to back to try different coffee drinks. Both times were amazing.

    I'm kinda a snob about coffee - this place is solid. They are currently using Cat & Cloud. Great choice of roasters. Friendly service. Definitely recommend.

    Common Grounds located in the Paso Market Walk is a great place to order and enjoy an uncommon cup of feakin outstanding coffee! There are cups of coffee that are bad, ones that are good...but the Cafe Ole w/Orange Peel I had here was OUTSTANDING! Our Baristas today were Christopher (Owner) and Alan. Both went above and beyond in customer service from the explanations of the Common Grounds methodology in bean selection, to the preparation with a "foam flower" in the cup and the delivery of this deliciously spectacular brew. Then there was the story of the Siphon Brewer (a pretty spectacular looking piece of coffee preparing equipment) which I found fascinating. The baked goods in the display case all looked fresh and good, but again...our ordered French Toast Muffin was way beyond that (5/5 - down right yummy with the Cafe Ole w/Orange Peel ). Lots of seating available and the light and airy atmosphere of the Market Walk made this experience quite literally a superlative one. On this occasion, in this Yelper's opinion...Common Grounds truly earned this "highly recommend - ya think ya have a favorite coffee joint right now, give Christopher and his Barista Staff a try to see if they can change your mind" 5 Star review.

    This used to be called Joe Bella but is now now Common Grounds. I love coming here for their Kyoto brew. I think it's a cold soak and then slow drip coffee. Not sure how they make it but it's amazing. The baristas are all so kind and great at recommendations. This visit, they offered to make the Kyoto brew with nitro and it made this favorite drink even better! I love coming here and will bring all my coffee lovers here.

    Good coffee and friendly service. It was a great fine while we were on a trip. They are crafted coffee, so takes a few minutes.

    The orange peel cappuccino is so tasty. It's unique, not too sweet, and the perfect way to start the day! Thank you!

    Best cup of coffee since I got to California, and I've been buying and roasting coffee for 20 years. Good beans, good roasting, and FRESH!

    Funny thing is I found this shop by accident and I'm so glad I did. I was staying in Atascadero…read morelooking for a local coffee shop there and instead of hitting the one I thought was going to in my GPS, I accidentally hit Amstrdm instead. Even though it was a 15 minute drive up the freeway from where I was, it was worth every minute. The downtown area this shop is in was really cool, plenty of parking, and the moment you walked into this coffee shop you could tell it was going to be good. Lots of space, people sitting and having conversations, and a greeting from the Barista the second I walked through the door. I went with my standard iced oat milk latte with honey and a triple shot and it was perfect. I wish I could have drank it there because the inside of the shop seemed like a place you could hang out for a while. Unfortunately, I had to take it on the road, but that is a shop (if I lived in that area) I would drive out of my way to get to. Well done guys!

    We ordered a latte, a breakfast sandwich, and the chicken pesto sandwich. The latte was enjoyable,…read morethough it tasted more milk-forward than coffee-forward. To be fair, we did order a latte, so that is partly expected. The breakfast sandwich was good but a little underseasoned and could have used a bit more flavor overall. The chicken pesto sandwich was the standout. The pesto was well balanced and did not overpower the rest of the ingredients, which made the sandwich really pleasant to eat. Overall, everything was solid, though slightly pricey for the portion sizes. The food was good, but nothing especially memorable. Still, it is a nice stop if you are in the area.

    Be careful if you enter this place, since you will 100% walk out with pricey cookies, lol…read more Didn't want to look in, but how can you not when in the area walking around the park. Popped in just to see since store didn't seem to have too much stuff inside. Very friendly workers, offering samples of the cookies to try while you check out the cute displays and wonder at the pricey cookies... Since I like to stick to whatever/original made a place famous, tried the original sample... If you have crossed this step, you know it's too late. So buttery, rich, dense, delicious cookie, perfect in the original formula of sweet/buttery/salt/texture. I still resisted, but wife broke down immediately and we walked out with 2 packs, lol. Think of Brown Butter Cookie as the cookie version of See's Candy's, or a drug dealer, lol. Free sample, since they are all confident you will find it to be awesome and be hooked! So pricey, but even a little goes a long way with these rich dense cookies. Dare to take a peek inside if in the area... Or just trust you won't be disappointed and just order it online to see. Think I saw a deal that made it cheaper online shortly after visiting in March, so look for sales/deals online. It almost made me order some, but was able to resist the urge, lol.

Amazing quality and decent quantity. Clean and tidy. Every flavor is delicious! Environment is warm and inviting, like family baking cookies for you.
