    Rocky Road Latte: Toasted Marshmallow, Caramel, & Almond
    Abby S.

    My first time trying this place! I ordered something off their Signature Drinks menu, the Rocky Road Latte, and omg it's sooo good! I would prefer it a little creamier/milkier because I like my drinks on the creamier side, but I'm still giving it 5 stars because it still tastes pretty amazing. Also, the barista girls are so sweet, super patient, and were more than willing to help me order. Definitely going to make this my go-to spot!

    Gotta try these viral drinks!

    I saw this coffee shop go viral on tiktok. Thankfully, they have several locations in North seattle. I made the 45 minute track to get to these amazing looking beverages. Surprisingly, there was no line. And I went right before halloween! The baristas we're very courteous, patient, and I did not feel rushed throughout the whole experience. Unfortunately, they were sold out of most food items except cookies so that was a bummer. I ordered a Dracula's Bride latte, which was a coffee based drink with white coffee. I also ordered the Graveyard for my kiddo which is essentially a giant dirt cup. Even though I had to drive the drinks 45 minutes back down, the integrity of the coffee art stayed for the most part. Taste-wise it was yummy. The white coffee just tastes better in lighter drinks in my opinion. They added a really fun touch with a syringe that was filled with extra syrup. Although I won't be back regularly, it is definitely worth it to make the drive for special holidays!

    First time thru this morning and I can't believe I haven't stopped by earlier. This drive thru coffee spot is tucked away on 99 and is such a gem. Their drinks are quirky but delicious and customer service is unreal. The girls working today were unbelievably friendly and gave great recommendations. They were busy so make sure to give yourself time- this isn't a quick Starbucks run. They're making creations in there. Also their breakfast bagel sandwiches are great!

    We love Grounds! They're quite expensive so they're definitely not an everyday haunt, but their drinks are so fun and they're a great treat every once in a while. Baristas are so kind and always go above and beyond.

    Super cute experience with really good coffee. I'd give the drink itself 4 stars, but aesthetics and service 5 stars. They have a ton of yummy flavor options, but their seasonal ghost option is what I really loved. I would definitely come again and I hope they do different things for each season!

    Updated for November menu

    Updated November drink menu Fun drinks, very nice staff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That's not light ice

    Everything is great from here. The drinks are so fun and so good but my low stars are for how much ice they put in their drinks even when I said for light ice and they say ok. If they can't do light ice I'd rather them tell me they can't. I ask for light ice every single time and this is how the cup is filled every single time. I pay 13 dollars for this drink and I'd like more drink than ice. It's frustrating that I ask each time and every employee will say ok! But this is how my drink comes every time. Feels like a waste of money

    Grand opening in North Seattle, near Shoreline border back on 5/15/23.

    Note: Opened 5/15/23 @ former drive through site that used to be Black Rock, Turtle Coffee, and Red Rock. Welcome Grounds Coffee Co. to North Seattle. The drive through is located at 143rd & Aurora/Hwy 99 next door to Kidd Valley, close to the Seattle - Shoreline border. This indie chain has other established sites located in Woodinville, Mukilteo, Snohomish, and Kenmore. I stopped by during their Grand Opening on 5/15/23. Very nice and upbeat barista that morning. Tasty, perfectly crafted iced mocha! Started a punch card too. Second visit was after a stop at the nearby Bitter Lake Post Office on 5/31/23. Thankful to see two baristas onsite, including the previous upbeat one. Again, good to report consistently crafted iced mochas. I got my usual 16oz and a 32oz (6 shots!) one for The Homie. Their beverage and light bites menu is vast. So many choices and reasonably priced. Definitely recommended!

    Fall menu is here!

    Got the oatmeal creme pie and it was so good. Can't wait to try all the other drinks!

    Love this place. They go the extra mile with their food in their drinks. The baristas always brighten my day if I stop in morning or afternoon.

    They have nailed the Halloween themed drinks. I love their each and every drink I have ever had. Their service is too good for a drive through coffee shop. Their menu is unique and taste is amazing. They also serve the best golden pumpkin latte which is too good. And you can request them to history for cute ghosts on your drink

    I'm so excited that there is a coffee stand that offers speciality coffee drinks and energy drinks (redbull & Lotus!) in Seattle.

    sadly a deeply mediocre experience. took absolutely forever (in part because there was only one guy…read moreworking the whole shop, which isn't feasible when you are trying to serve hot food AND make drinks) and the food/coffee was mid and overpriced. i had an avocado toast (and even asked if they use fresh avocado, to which they said yes)...it was ice cold pre-packaged avocado atop cold bread. for $7.50!! my husband ordered the ham breakfast sandwich which came lukewarm. all this after we waited about 15 minutes. and again, i feel for the guy who was clearly running this place by himself. but they're just trying to do too much. coffee was also pretty mid, another $5 latte prepared without much care or attention. just fizzy oat milk dumped into a cup. when it's $30 + tip for breakfast and coffee for two to-go, i'd just expect a lot more. also, i see a lot of other people like the ambiance?? very confused by this, it's just another textbook standard gentrified coffee shop with an expensive letterboard, industrial lighting, and metal chairs.

    I found this place via inKind rewards. The space itself is very cute with lots of great seating…read moreoptions. Parking was easy to find out front. I tried the gluten-free trailblazer cookie, and it was absolutely delicious. Loved all the additions to it to make it a more robust cookie. I also had the lavender latte which was tasty and not too strong a lavender taste.
