Grounds Bakery & Cafe

We ordered some sandwiches and ended up waiting more than 40 minutes for them to be prepared. It was obvious that our order had been forgotten, as customers who ordered after us were served before we were. No one acknowledged the mistake and kept telling us that they were on the way. This service is completely unacceptable and extremely disappointing. We left feeling ignored, frustrated and hungry. Sadly, after this experience, we will never return again and cannot recommend this place to others.

1st timers we joined friends from long beach at Grounds Cafe. Friendly counter service we sat outside front patio...the staff broght out the orders. Great sandwiches and salad. Yes we had dessert too. Suddenly we noticed all the outside tables were gone. They didn't interrupt our regaling of stories. They locked the doors while they closed but they never rushed is out. They allowed us to finish our time. Highly recommend this location!! Will definitely come back to this gem

Coffee is obtained from a decanter pump. Omelet sandwich on sourdough was a good combination but dry. There is lots of seating.

Love love love Grounds. Used to come here every week when I lived in LB. Recently visited after a couple years and it’s just as delicious as I remember it. I got the LOX on an everything bagel stick. I’ve had such about anything and everything on their menu from coffee to bagels to cupcakes and everything is delicious. Such a lovely family owned coffee shop. Staff is always friendly and welcoming.

I've been to this location several times, and it's not bad. I ordered an Everything bagel with veggie cream cheese this morning that was a bit disappointing. The (stick) bagel appeared to have only sesame & poppy seeds on it, I didn't see or taste any onion/garlic/salt, and the thin smear of cream cheese was a bit disappointing too, especially since the cream cream cheese was much more than the bagel (as expected). I'll have to try it again another time. I also had a boxed lunch from here recently, which is pretty good. I tried the chicken salad sandwich for the first time. I didn't care for the flavor. There were large chunks of water chestnuts (I think) that overpowered the chicken. I removed several of them after a couple of bites because there were just too many. (I forgot to take photos.) Overall, Grounds is a good spot to get breakfast items or lunch.
