It was bold rich and delicious. Their baked goods looked amazing but I'll have to try those on the next visit which will be soon. The staff were very polite, very informative and extremely helpful. Inside was a great chill vibe with relaxing music playing in the background and it's a fantastic place to get coffee, hang out or do some work. There are several coffee spots in the Riverside/Avondale area and Bold Bean is one of the best. If you're a coffee fan, Bold Bean is a must if you're in the Riverside area.

Grounds of Grace - After Thoughts Continuing my "JAX COFFEE…read moreCRAWL 2025" -- stop 4 of 10! If you're spiritual and love coffee (like I do!!!), this is absolutely the spot for you. Honestly, anyone would enjoy this hidden gem -- I'm still amazed it's been around for over three years! Be mindful of the small step-up at the entrance, which leads into a spacious, open-concept café with a clean, eclectic interior. During my early visit (6:40 AM), the atmosphere was calm, peaceful, and quietly welcoming -- a perfect space to gather your thoughts or ease into the morning. The staff was kind and attentive, adding to the serene vibe. Selection: Bonfire Latte (Hot, 12oz, Oat Milk) - If childhood camping trips were a drink, this would be it. A delicate blend of mocha with a gentle hint of marshmallow, perfectly elevated by creamy oat milk. My first choice here, and already looking forward to trying more from their extensive menu! Extra Perks: Study and private rooms Individual tables featuring motivational quotes Bar seating facing a large glass wall for relaxed street views I came in with low expectations and left spiritually lifted, energized, and ready for whatever the day brings. .5 of 5 (4.5 of 5) - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! 10-15-2025

The parking right in front isn't the best but there is ample parking in the shops surrounding the business. The environment was lowkey with several patrons on laptops or catching up with friends. I had no idea what I wanted but definitely wanted to try their drinks and a biscuit. I ended up having them customize an iced caramel latte and ordering a cheddar and cheese biscuit. Everything tasted amazingggg. The biscuit was fresh and I didn't feel heavy after eating it. The latte had the perfect amount of sweetness. Both items complemented each other well and the pricing was very fair. They do sell their own coffee and it seemed like everyone had a cup. I think one of the better things about it is the drive-thru for people who don't want to get out the car. I am confident enough to use the drive-thru now that I have a go-to order. I rate this place a 10/10 and I will definitely be back to try some of the pastries and different coffee flavors.

Can't believe it's taken me around 2 and a half years to get here for a visit since I got back to…read moreJAX! As many of my friends know, I'm a coffee kook - just got the addiction! Well, this will be my 49th review on a coffee shop and I'm very happy to cover Grounds of Grace! First and foremost, yes, it's a shop that exists to provide service to customers with excellent hot and cold beverages. However, its main reason for existence is ministry. Yes, it's a ministry to the community in that it brings our young people in to learn the coffee business, along with many other ministry activities in the community. It also sports a large bus outside the building in the parking lot. It's not there for decor. It's also used to provide ministry throughout the area as well. How in the world did I get the feeling I wanted to ride the Sunday School but that took me to church when I was a young kiddo again! Yeah, that brought back the memories! Grounds of Grace started up in 2020 (during Covid of all things). But the building came to existence around 2023. There is much to appreciate in the work and positive effect they have on others - I saw some of that during my visit. Yes, I did visit to grab a coffee beverage too! The day was warm so I departed from my usual hot white latte and went with a spring specialty offering. Katie, the fantastic barista who assisted me, told me about the specialty menu and I saw immediately that I had to get the strawberry cheesecake white mocha latte!! I took the frap version. But this is key! I mentioned the drink probably has a high sugar content, and YES it does! However, the shop will offer to make it for you with half the sugar, which I chose. Truthfully, I was delicious! That's because I could really taste the coffee and other flavors blended evenly together. Make sure you ask for the half sugar on their specialty drinks if you wish for a lower sugar content. On another note, I really love the interior of Grounds of Grace. They have a pretty large space in their building with varied seating from chairs, half couches, elevated seating, and regular table seating. It wasn't busy during my Saturday visit, but some folks did stop by. It's a very pleasant atmosphere with lowered-volume Christian music playing. Remember, this is a Christian ministry, but Grounds of Grace welcomes all people to come visit and enjoy what they offer. They do have a section with accessories, such as shirts, mugs, etc., it you want to purchase some and further help their ministry. I really think this is a great thing for our community and I had a wonderful time here. It was one of those moments where I felt like I a got a dose of heaven for a moment of time! Come visit Grounds of Grace! What they do for kids and the community, along with creating great coffee beverages, it's surely worth your visit! Recommend: VERY HIGH

If it wasn't so late, I would try it instantly, but I need to wake up in the morning, early! He had great customer service. He said the door is always locked, even when it's open. And as you come up, he opens it. So if it looks closed, but hours are still open, he is there, just knock or ring the bell. Customer service was great. He said they have been doing it since late 1950's! He said, "I'm sure I will be seeing you again! " Yes, sir. You are more then likely right. With the aroma of that coffee that has overtaken the car!

The location is a no frills type of place. They execute coffee well but the place was built for the community. Though I haven't attended any other events so I can't speak on those, they host weekly art and music events that seem like would be fun in the space, which is a converted warehouse. The location is funky and lots of mismatched furniture which adds to the vibe. The barista was nice and shared some about the space.
