I loved the concept of paying it forward that Solid Grounds Cafe offers. You can pay for an item that someone can claim after, there is a little board that shows the number of items. It's a cool way to do a nice little thing in your morning that makes you (and someone else!) smile. Food-wise, their Earl grey scone was the best of what we tried. Full of the real Earl grey flavor. We got the blueberry iced latte which was interesting but it was hard to stir the blueberry flavor which sat in the bottom of the cup. The veggie breakfast sandwich felt a bit small and lacking in flavor. I'd say at the least to add some aioli and make it a bit more substantial with say avocado. Seating is very very limited. 3-4 small tables. But there is an open area/park just down the street with tables and chairs. So if it's a nice and sunny day, you might want to take your order to go! read more
