Went on a rainy morning. The coffee was great, latte was delish.... The yogurt with cherries and granola off the charts. The employees are friendly, and very efficient. Food and drinks came out in no time. The atmosphere is perfect for small town coffee shop. This is probably one of my favorite coffee shops that I have visited. Highly recommend. We will be back. read more

Ambiance is cute and drinks are fine, but they're overpriced for what they are and be prepared because there service is very slow. For two drinks (one hot, one iced) we waited 15 minutes. I don't know if they need more baristas or a more efficient system but it's kind of ridiculous. read more

Cute coffee shop that is always busy. Unfortunately there aren't a ton of gluten free options when it comes to grub, but if you love people watching and want to warm up or cool down with a cup of joe, this is a great option for you! read more

Great, quaint little place to grab coffee and a breakfast sandwich. The "build your own" breakfast menu is simple bug good. Very cordial staff. read more

It's a great place that's never let me down, and the coffee is to die for! It's also a fantastic study spot if you're ever in need. On my last visit, I had the caramel sea salt cookie, and it was fantastic. They're good at keeping the menu exciting! read more

Egg sandwiches were great. Place is small inside but there are tables outside with umbrellas. We enjoyed our sandwiches and coffees while watching the happenings on the main drag one Sunday morning. Great way to start the day! read more

Come here for the food - pastries and muffins especially. Easily the best Apple Fritters I've had in ages. I have yet to find anything bad in the pastry case. Unfortunately there's no choice in selection on espresso. Most good coffee cafes today allow for a set or series on light or dark roast selections for espresso grind and shots. Nor does the cafe have any allowance for a well-meaning barista to dial-in grinds and timings to a specific variety. The only selection seems to be whatever is in the hopper of an automated machine; and I've found it usually to be an over extracted Italian roast. I'd love to see the owners rip out the automated machine, and drop in a good grinder and multi-head manual machine. For comparison, a drive down Rt 50 some eight miles, just beyond Gilbert's Corner at Brew Birds is a coffee experience worth the drive for. read more

I stopped in Middleburg to check out a store which was closed for lunch. That's when I decided to kill some time and grab something to eat at Middleburg Common Grounds. I ordered a Reuben sandwich from the menu which doesn't list pricing and saw that it came out to a little over $13. I don't appreciate the surprise without seeing what the product looks like but that's fine--it's probably going to be nice and hearty. Wrong. I received a small sandwich with maybe three slices of corned beef and a small bag of chips. I should've taken a picture with a better angle but there was probably more bread than meat--the small bag of chips should give you an idea of how small the sandwich was in comparison. Complete ripoff. In hindsight, tipping at the POS just added insult to injury because there wasn't anything memorable about the ordering process or the food drop-off at my table. This small-town restaurant was pretty clean and cozy, but the value is New York City levels of ridiculous. Out-of-towners be warned. read more

Everything about Common Grounds is cozy and welcoming from the moment you step through the door. The aromas of good food and great coffee greet the nose as the warm woods and cozy seating arrangements provide an equally appealing welcome to the eye. Common Grounds is a microcosm of the Middleburg community, old friends coming together over a cup of the best coffee in town and new friends being made over a shared table, while children and pets are everywhere. If you want to know what's going on around Middleburg this is the place to be. There's no such thing as a stranger in this coffee house, everyone is welcomed biped and quadruped alike. Yes, your dog is welcome here too. If this weekend was anything to judge by, your pet is also as likely to come away with a doggie play date as not. Staff are friendly, service is efficient and the coffee is excellent. They offer breakfast and lunch dishes as well. A great place to while away a weekend morning and meet some local folks. Highly recommend! read more

This is an a cute Little cafe on Washington Street. I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness of my sandwich. The tea was spot on. I was incredibly tempted to purchase the homemade pop tart but I am laying off sugar. The service was great. The young lady at the register took her time answering our questions. It's definitely a locals hangout and it was packed. read more

I love this place. Every time we visit Middleburg we stop here for breakfast. The outdoor cafe is perfect for dining especially in the middle of Covid. The food is terrific as well. Everyone wore a mask inside the restaurant. Staff was super friendly. Great bagels, the pastries looked fabulous too. We will be back again. read more

A great comfortable spot to hang out! Dog-friendly, baby-friendly. Nice comfy chairs and cute, homey decor. It's a good place to get an affordable breakfast or lunch sandwich. My husband got a ham sandwich which he found to be basic but still good. I got a hot dog on a pretzel bun and asked to add sauerkraut, which was amazing. They forgot to put mustard on it, but quickly added it when I asked. The hot dog and mustard were good but not great. Pretzel bun was amazing, but I never met one I didn't like! We also got espresso drinks, which made us feel very lively. They had quite a few to offer. The bathrooms were clean as were the seating areas. Overall not a bad place to spend an hour or two! read more

Really like the local vibe here. It's exactly what you might expect in the town of Middleburg. It's warm & cozy and has all your favorites. It's not big inside but when weather permits has ample outdoor seating. The floors are old oak as well as oak tables and chairs and give the place a down home warm comfortable feeling. I really like the recessed electric receptacles in the floor and you can enjoy a nice mellow soundtrack as you sip your beverage. The Wi-Fi is indeed free, it works and is fast and you don't have to ask for a password. I had an excellent bold roast Summatra. They have everything you would want in a full serve coffee shop. They have a nice selection of breakfast and lunch sandwiches. read more

Nice cozy vibe inside but weirdly dark lighting. I ordered a peppermint mocha that had very little chocolate or peppermint. My mom ordered a hot chocolate which just tasted like warm milk. My brother ordered a chai which was quite good. They have sandwiches to order and muffins and scones which looked pretty decent. Friendly baristas and cute space but disappointing drinks. read more

The cafe has a cozy feeling and was clean. The doughnut I ordered was good. The double espresso tasted really bad. When I asked the barista what type of coffee she used she was unable to tell me. I would recommend to the management that when a customer tells them their espresso tastes bad you offer to re-make it or a different drink. I have a feeling this coffee bean is very low-grade. I don't think I'll return back for another bad drink, which is a shame because I drive past this place every day. read more

Was cool to find that Middleburg has a coffee shop where you can get some caffeine and chill, relax with a book, or break out the computer or iPad and get some work done! Once I discovered the existence of Middleburg Common Grounds, I made a beeline for the place to check it out. I ordered a quad shot iced latte with whole milk - and a breakfast sandwich - sausage, egg, and cheese on toasted Ciabatta bread. Drink was strong and tasty - IMHO, it tasted better than what Starbucks offers. The sandwich was hot and tasty - just your basic breakfast sandwich - I was wishing it had a bit more sausage in it though. I like the ambiance of the place, very cool and relaxing. The people were nice and the service was very good. The Men's restroom is pretty cool too the way it is decorated - has kind of a country shabby chic vibe to it. They offer free Wifi, and there is a good bit of outdoor seating as well. read more

A lot of outdoor seating but food and coffee is average. Got a breakfast sandwich, blueberry scone and blueberry muffin. Black coffee and strawberry banana smoothie. Smoothie tasted like it was made from powder. read more

Our Green Lizard bike group got caught in the rain on a ride and had to cut it short. We found the coffee shop on Yelp and met there to warm up. What a great spot! Loved the hint theme decor. The staff is super friendly and the coffee was very good. They are dog friendly too. This is a must visit. read more

A small coffee shop in small downtown Middleburg. Food was ok. Latte had too much foam (more of a Capp) and way too hot.

Coffee and food are tasty and well-presented; but service is very slow. Though it was during lunchtime and they gave us a heads up for some parts of our order; it took over 45 min for a few sandwiches; and 15min for a lemonade. The place is not the that big for it to be justified. read more

This is a review of the food, not the coffee. My advice is to go elsewhere. Slow and overpriced. I've never had a lamer sandwich in my life. Thin slices of toast with a few white beans and a sprinkle of tuna. I thought it was a joke at first, but no. read more

What a nice spot. Located in the heart of Middleburgh, there's probably only one Main Street in town. This place features indoor and outdoor seating. The interior of the place is small but warm and welcoming. There is a nice lounge area for you to seat alone or in the company of your plus 1 and enjoy a nice cud of coffee. There coffee is good! I enjoyed the capuchino which was actually made correctly. Bravo! The outside seating is pretty and welcoming. But you are outside so you'll face challenges such as the moving sun and the umbrella shade leaving out exposed to work on your tan. I even faced some bees! The flowers around the porch like deck is a nice touch. My bacon egg and cheese was sad. Remind me not to get that again. However the other sandwich I hade, was great! Certainly a nice place to enjoy some baked goods and a cud of coffee, inside or outside! read more

I'm not usually one to go through the effort to post reviews but the folks down at common grounds are awesome! I recently started going in a couple times a week for coffee after physical therapy in the mornings. Everyone is always super friendly and after the first week they all recognized me and remember my order which you don't always get at the big chain coffee shops. Coffee is always great and the foods awesome too! I highly recommend you stop in and grab a drink if you're in town. read more

Good selection of pastries and the staff are courteous. Was here to get some root beer after a difficult gravel bike ride.

The environment was comfortable and nicely decorated, but it was very odd and off-putting that there were no prices listed anywhere - - not on the boards nor on the printed menus. It seemed very thoughtless towards customers, as not everybody has an endless budget. The cashier was fine but seemed impatient, so it would have been awkward to ask her what every item on the menu cost. We ended up paying more than we expected, for small portions. The avocado toast was way too salty and almost soggy; it was more like guacamole toast, as there were no slices of avocados. The egg was rubbery, like it had been microwaved. The mocha smoothie was excellent, though, and the coffee good. We would consider returning for the drinks and to enjoy the relaxing vibe, but we won't be ordering food again based on the surprise-prices and the mediocre quality of the food. read more

Great lattes , ok breakfast sandwiches but place is always dirty. They never mop bizarrely. Could be much nicer.

Ordered a small decaf coffee late in the afternoon (around 3:45 pm) and they did not have any brewed and would not brew a pot because they were closing soon. Not sure how you can call yourself a coffee shop and not offer decaf coffee. read more

Simpl(y) delicious! Nothing fancy, but who needs that when it's this good. We went for breakfast right when they opened. Quick courteous service (order at counter and they bring it to you.) Everything was hot, fresh and delicious (Coffee, sandwich & pastry. read more

I ran away to this little coffee house. I drove 20 minutes to find it and it was worth the drive. This place it literally in a house on the main street in Middleburg, VA. A Monday in the summer will bring a whole wealth of people. From my little corner, I think I have see representatives of all generations. The espresso is very smooth and almond milk is an option which is huge plus for me. And for those pet parents out there your pooch is allowed inside and outside on the patio. The patio is awesome for people watching but since VA is having a heat wave right now, I stayed inside. Breakfast is available all day long. Sandwiches are built to your liking. Choose the egg, then bread (or not), meats and/or veggies to make breakfast the way you like it. Lunch sandwiches are a huge variety and then buy local whenever possible. I really enjoyed my ciabatta sandwich. It was not huge but everything was incredibly fresh. I wish I was staying longer. I would not mind becoming a regular here. read more

Friendly and welcoming staff at this new cafe that has a nice outdoor seating area. The cappuccino was excellent and the cheese bagel with Kerry butter from Ireland was yummy. Oh and the chocolate chip cookies made locally were perfect. Inside there are cozy leather chairs. Inside was too noisy though. Very nice bathrooms. Free wifi but slow connection. They are handicapped accessible with a long ramp on one side-must enter from front though as lot in the rear has a few stairs to get into area. Sitting outside you will likely encounter motorcycle noise as many motorcycles pass through town and they motorcyclists like to stop at the tavern right nearby. read more

Great coffee and sandwiches and I love that they offer beer and wine also! The staff are also very friendly and helpful! Nate is awesome!!

My first stop in here was a little disappointing. The chai tea simply tastes like hot milk and my scone was dry, even for a scone. Now trip number 2 was MUCH better. First off I opted for the chai tea smoothie and on this muggy morning, that was the way to go! It's cold and had the perfect amount of chai spice where you know what you're drinking. They call it a smoothie but the texture is granata, not smoothie. Either way, it's delicious. I ordered a blueberry muffin but as I was checking out I saw a giant slice of banana bread (weakness!). So I opted for that instead. Upon devouring, I realize it is not just banana bread but peanut butter and jelly banana bread. The texture was great but the flavor was a touch weird but good. I also sampled the tuna salad but when I tried it I found it to be not tuna like I was thinking but more of a nicoise. It was chock full of things I hate : Tuscan hire beans and olives. Blech. But I was able to get a hunk of tuna out without the extras and it was pleasantly citrusy and well seasoned. No mayo and it wasn't missing it. Love that you can bring your pooch in here and feel welcome. Also they do a buy 10 get 1 free "frequent flyer" card if you ask. read more

Stopped by this place after a relaxing weekend at Salamander Resort, based off the good reviews, and boy were the people right on this one! This place was super cute, relaxed and delicious! I got a caramel "smoothie" (basically a frozen/blended beverage comparable to a frappacino) that was BETTER than Starbucks! Delicious. Wifey and I both got egg and bacon sandwiches on ciabatta bread - very, very good! If we are ever in Middleburg area again, this would definitely be a stop again! minus 1 star is only for the minor fly problem. Flys were kinda chillin out, hangin around and making themselves a bit too comfortable for my taste. This place might do well to add some fly ointment/jars/traps etc. But honestly - very minor issue to an otherwise VERY nice and relaxing little sit down for a brunch! They weren't RAMPANT....just........noticeable. Keep up the good work people! Highly recommended. read more

Excellent breakfast with exceptional coffee. Small menu offering but you cannot go wrong with anything there. They serve make-your-own breakfast sandwiches, and I highly recommend getting one on ciabatta. The bread and pastries there are delectable. You can also order freshly baked bread a day ahead. My husband enjoyed their espresso so much that he bought a bag to bring home. Lastly, you MUST get some apple cider donuts to enjoy there AND bring home. They may be the best I've ever had, and they remain fresh for a day or two afterwards - so long as you put them in a ziploc bag once you get home. Service was very friendly and the atmosphere was nice and cozy. Stopped here before heading out to get a Christmas Tree. read more

Cute spot in a small town between ny and nc. We detoured to stay a night at Salamander but wanted just a quick coffee and sandwich for the road. Quick service, good drinks, sandwiches were delicious, and very reasonably priced. Nothing fancy but would definitely recommmend for a family lunch or morning brunch in middleburg. read more
