My go-to cafe whenever in Laramie. Love the drinks, like the space. Workers always pleasant.

Paid for 3 large coffees did not get what we paid for. See photo Small coffee is on the left. Was told coffee on the right is a large 20oz....its not it's a 16oz and instead of Correcting the order we were told the manager did in fact make us large drinks. MMMM I would disagree. Won't be back. read more

Great locally owned coffee shop!! Friendly and they had a good selection of breakfast items.

I have wanted to like this place so much and I do really like the coffee when I get it. More than half of the time I have stopped there has been during the posted business hours although no one will come to the door/window or they do and tell me they're closed. This literally just happened to me at 4:50, they close at 5:00 per the posted hours but they still came to the window and told me that they were closed? Sad... read more

First time in today-- the service was so kind, Dalai Lama sandwich was amazing, and the dirty Chai latte was delicious. The vibe is great in here. Absolutely recommend! read more

Needed food and coffee on a road trip - this was an easy stop but just okay. The coffee was meh and the sandwiches were also just okay, not good, but at least they were cheap. The whole place is a bit dingy. The workers were friendly though! read more

This place is a great little loungey coffee shop close to the heart of Laramie. They have some great breakfast sandwiches and good coffee. I really like how quiet it generally is and come here to get work on my class done. The staff are generally friendly, but need some training on providing alternative recommendations to customers if they don't have something on hand. They could also really use a couple bottles of hot sauce for their breakfast sandwiches. Other than that, no complaints. read more

Excellent first visit! Came here after my workout and got The Hulk. Great smoothie, friendly staff, and spacious area. Will definitely be back. read more

I grew up in Laramie when the location was Crown Liquor, the bar mentioned in a previous review. In fact, my (now) in-laws owned it back then. Grounds is a very cool coffee spot, and I love the free WiFi. I'm in town visiting mom, who has dial-up AOL - enough reason to appreciate Internet access. I bring my laptop and work 2-3 hours at a time. $3 for a toasted bagel with butter and a 16oz Americano. Pretty darn good deal. I have found all the staff to be exceptionally pleasant. The sofas are comfy and there are plenty of power outlets. Oh, and there are at least 4 desktop computers if you don't have a laptop. read more

The Grounds Internet & Coffee Lounge - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Laramie, Wyoming

One of our go-to spots on the drive from Lander back home to Iowa, and they never disappoint!!! Happy to support a local business, especially now. read more

One of my favorite places to grab coffee. Very cute inside and such a good place to study or chill. Love their iced drinks!

Probably one of the most underrated coffeeshops in the Gem City. Friendly staff, fast service, good food, affordable prices, and great coffee. They have a nice atmosphere to meet a friend or get some work done as well. read more

The Grounds exists in what used to be a bar. As a result it's a narrow and oddly shaped space. Up front with the counter is a bar area and some public computer terminals. In the back you have comfortable seating and plenty of tables. You'll find lots of students here studying or shooting the breeze. The drink selection is fairly impressive and wide in scope. They serve much more than coffee here. The quality is fine, but I've never had a drink here that really stood out. It's the only place in town I know of to get wheat-grass juice, though. Perhaps most unlikely of all is that The Grounds also doubles as a music venue. You'd never know it during the day, as there is no stage or even a clear space on the floor for a band to set up. On a night with a show the shop closes early and chairs and tables are cleared out of the long, narrow space. Cover is usually about $5 to see small-time touring and local acts. Since there isn't a stage you can get face to face with the performers if you're willing to deal with the output of whatever speakers they're brought with them. It's cramped and loud, but it's better than nothing. In fact, it's usually pretty awesome. read more

The grounds is a really nice quiet space to study, without the crowd and noise level that other local coffee shops may have. The smoothies, coffee, and sandwiches are really killer. read more

This was a surprisingly amazing stop on my way westward about a month ago. In the big empty, this cute little coffee shop was a welcome stop. I went with one of their bagel sandwiches and it had so many amazing fresh veggies on it! It really hit the spot. I'm not into coffee but it looks like they've got a halfway decent espresso machine and the skills to whip up all the basics. I went with a chai latte. It was a mix - not amazing but good....a little on the sweet side but hey, it's Wyoming. read more

went in their and ordered a chai and a coffee. No one else was in there I then signed my card slip and even gave a tip. What a mistake. First there was no coffee made, and that was not an issue for them, I guess i was to pay for no coffee? then after( i obviously was an inconvenience )I was waiting for my coffee and this guy walks in and they are oh soo nice, and he gets coffee and a free refill.I then was given my coffee,finally and with a broken arm i struggled to open the door and they just stood there smirking. Bad and expensive experience. Never will I go back to be treated so bad and have to pay for it to boot. read more

I stopped in here for a quick bite 'n' browse on my way down I-80, and I'm glad I did. Two stars just for decent prices and free Internet access. The place is spacious, with standard coffeeshop seating toward the entrance and comfortable couches, tables, and nooks in the back. It has a nice relaxing feel, and even a few outlets. I ordered the "Wild West Reuben", a classic Reuben made with buffalo meat. Delicious! On my particular visit, I got to overhear the story of a girl who never drinks hard alcohol, but loves to play drinking games with beer. Apparently she passed out the other night! Some poor guy listened to this for a half an hour without adding a word. Minus one star for the barista being "bristled" that I ordered a sandwich within a half-hour of closing time. If you don't want to make food at 7:40, close the restaurant at 7:30! read more

I nice, clean coffee shop. The employees were helpful, fun, and inviting. The free wifi was a bonus too!

Stopped in while traveling to get a small town coffee and was greeted by a young lady that has zero customer service skills. She seemed like she did not want to be working at all. No personality no smile and just not friendly. She gave the order to another young lady that actually made the coffee and forgot to tell her mine was sugar free. I would have gone back after I noticed but I didn't want to deal with her again. I have a hard time thinking that this cute little college town could only find her to be the cashier that greets customers. Coffee was ok. Tasted a little burnt. read more

This place is ok. The Thai coffee is delicious. The bagels are mediocre. Atmosphere absolutely mediocre.

very cool, kinda bohemian coffee shop with smoothies made from "real fruit" (frozen, but at least not some powdered mix).. the Blue Hawaiian smoothie - a combo of blueberry, mango, and pineapple is great! albeit a bizarre combination since blueberries grow in New Jersey and mangos and pineapples grow in places much more tropical than New Jersey like say Brasil where I would much rather be.. Lots of seating capacity, tables, couches, a couple computers for internet access. they have food too. a couple tables outside when weather is good. read more

See all

This used to be a place to get fresh orange juice. Disappointed to find that not happening anymore. If you are a coffee drinker though this may be the place. I don't drink coffee but love the drive up window. read more

Warm and cozy with free wi-fi and amazing Chai tea. I really liked this place and stopped in almost every morning that I spent in Laramie.

Ok so I have been wanting to try this place out for a long time. It's definitely not my usual scene but the hippy vibe places usually have great coffee. Plus the yelp reviews were great so I decided to come. I love the layout. Lots of room and wifi. But the coffee I got was cold and stale! Not such a good thing for a cafe. The sandwich looked great on paper but it was not at all worth six bucks. So at the end of the day, I got stale coffee, a meh sandwich, and a bag of chips. Sorry, but I'm not feeling the love. read more

An extra star for the reliable internet. Good coffee and the Barista knew well about the coffee. Ambience could be better. Nevertheless a great place to work from or study and drink a good cup of coffee. read more

This place rocks!! Cheap pricing, friendly staff. They gave me free chocolate covered coffee beans. Wide selection of different drinks. I'm definitely going to visit often. read more

I am a fan! Iced Razzle Dazzle before work is a must! I had a breakfast bagel sandwich one time, and although they were busy (so it took 20 min to get), it was delicious. The staff have ALWAYS been very friendly, whether we went inside or through the (slightly awkwardly placed) drive thru. read more

Re-opened for business Aug. 1, 2010, with new owners. I've stopped there four times this week (once 2 days before they opened). I've had brewed coffee and three times, a scone once, and the Dalai Lama sandwich twice. The new owners are trying to please, and are just learning the "ropes" and the recipes for the sandwiches, but they have a great attitude and I hope they do well! They will be offering credit card payment soon. read more

This hidden gem is a definite must if you're driving through or live in Laramie! The service is great, specifically kassidy, and the coffee and food are even better! I'm a huge fan of the Thai coffee and the oh be joyful on a croissant. Very healthy and way better than a chain. Also, a great place to tuck away an study! read more

Love this place! Some of the best coffee I've had, nice spacious tables for studying, and actually affordable food!

Great, friendly place to get a cappuccino. A REAL cappuccino, not a caffeinated sugar drink. Free wifi, cozy seating. Probably shouldn't say this, since I love the quick service, but there's seldom a line, unlike other coffee shops in town. read more

Great coffee and staff is nice but I can no longer support them after management treats their staff the way they do. Hopefully things change and people can actually work there without the fear of lies being said about them read more
