This was my first time here and first impression was great. It's attached to Dave's Diner so no where to sit and a little snug but was just grabbing mine to go so no problem for me. Their pastries looked yummy, just wish they were labeled so you don't have to ask. They also have a cute little shopping area which was perfect to be able to look at everything while you wait for your order. I got a brown sugar shaken espresso and really enjoyed it!

It's located inside of a shared space with a diner, so it can get a bit loud at times. There's parking available both in a parking lot and on the street, but no drive-thru, and you do have to walk up a few stairs to get inside. Such a cute little area to sit and enjoy your beverage. Overall, a great little coffee shop I enjoy visiting.

Did not get a refill, not sure if they're offered. The place is small and I would say that was the only thing that made it a bit wonky to walk around. One customer gave me a glaring side eye when I walked past her table twice- I know! How dare I do that!? You order at the counter and a number tower card is given to place on your table. Food was brought out quickly. I would go back to try something else.

I will admit that it wasn't our first choice this particular day. We had wanted to try another coffee shop down the street but it was closed on Black Friday, so thanks Common Ground for saving the day! My Aunt and I both ordered a soy Mocha and chose one of the high top tables in front near the door to enjoy our drinks and chat. It was a perfect spot, very conveniently located on the main st in Caz, plenty of parking in the lot, or on the street. The mocha was delish, and I'd love to go back and try other drinks, as well as some of the breakfast/pastry type items they had to offer.

I lived in the City for two different stretches in the '80s and '90s and have visited all my life. These bagels and bialys are every bit as good as the ones I would get at my local bakeries. Everything I've had here has been worth the expense. Breakfast and luncheon sandwiches are tasty, generous, and carefully assembled. It's also a neat little space to take a moment and refresh and the staff have always been friendly and fast. Don't miss their weekly specials either! But go early, as they often sell out of popular varieties by noon. (You can call ahead the day before for large orders and they will bake them off for you and hold them aside.)

I've attached pictures of two March specials I had- it's a shame these are the only photos I have, but the lattes are so good I chug them before I can get an aesthetically pleasing photo. Aside from the coffee, the pastries are excellent and their breakfast sandwiches are cheap, hearty, delicious. No other cafe compares in CNY.

They also have a little gift shop area with merch, candles, etc and also all very cute. The place is very open and clean and lots of potential for some cute decor.

There are several tables, which are close together. As long as there aren't many other customers it's comfortable.
