Truly a community meeting place. A place with great coffee, great atmosphere and great spirit. Meet and feel the love.

Rented the Upper Room for my daughters bridal shower. The space is very large, literally the entire upper floor of the repurposed factory/warehouse. The room is decorated in a loose industrial/antique automotive motif with vintage tables and chairs. It has lovely antique wood and natural lighting, and concrete floors throughout.We brought our own food for the party, and ordered coffee from the cafe. Every single drink was declared delicious. Excellent barista on staff, both in beverage prep and accommodating service. Our party lasted past store-closing; we just had to agree to lock up after ourselves.Several faith groups use the coffee shop for meetings and worship. There is a clear Abrahamic faith-oriented feel to the rooms available for rent, a Bible here or there, Hebrew lettering on a sign, but nothing ostentatious as to make you feel unwelcome.

Just a quick bite for lunch. The Cuban sandwich was delicious. I would go back for that alone. Lots of great menu items and specialty drinks. The decor was amusing and inviting and the barista was very friendly.

Excellent wrap...tasted great! Delicious dark chocolate mocha, one of the tastiest Ive had! Had lunch in the book room, pleasant atmosphere. Friendly staff to boot!

Good coffee, pastries and deli sandwiches. A family friendly and welcoming vibe. Its a secret gem in Alexandria!

We went here everyday on our vacation to the area. Yes it was that good! We got a variety of coffees and teas and were very good and larger portions.

What an amazing place to get coffee! Great service. Kind people. Definitely recommend

This local owned coffee shop in Alexandria is amazing! Saturday 4/17/21 was our first time stopping in on our way to Moorehead to visit family, we will definitely stop in again! The guy behind the counter, whom Im assuming was the owner, was very kind & helpful. The nitro vanilla was so smooth & tasty, my husband also enjoyed his vanilla iced latte! There was a group of about 9 localssitting near by & they were respectful & just enjoying a morning visit together which was nice to see. Thank you to the owner & staff for all the work you do in your local coffee house!

Wonderful coffee and atmosphere. Ample seating for chatting or good WiFi for ignoring your company while on instagram! You can’t beat those options!

Was at a baby shower upstairs. Very cool decorated.

Such a unique coffee shop.

Great service, enjoyable decor, fast wifi!

Excellent coffee, friendly service & cozy atmosphere. I will be back to try a lunch menu item soon!

I love the atmosphere here, dim cozy feel, beautiful custom made tables, and drinks are delicious. I make a visit every time Im in the area.

Always great coffee and a great atmosphere!

Great coffees and atmosphere!

Great tasing coffee and the price is right!!!!!

Owners are very generous.

Cozy, encouraging atmosphere with great coffee!

Cute little coffee shop with a small town feel. I love going to local coffee shops when I can, as I usually find them preferable/tastier than the large chains. Common Grounds definitely lived up to that and I would go there again.

Love their salads with chicken!Fresh and delicious!

Visiting from the cities and ran across this lovely little coffee shop. Happy to see that they roast their coffee fresh in-house. Enjoyed chatting with the knowledgeable​ roaster. Their Honduras coffee was delicious! The staff was pleasant. Very nice experience! Support this gem.

Owner was great. Relaxed atmosphere. Fast service. Perfect place for a get-together. Will definitely be back.

Amazing customer service!!! Oh and my latte was awesome too!!!

I love going in for a quick cup of coffee or to grab a bite and stay to work for awhile. The environment is very comfortable and quaint, unlike most corporate coffee shops.They also have a great space for hosting events. They call it the Upper Room and it can seat about 50 guests easily. The old building has so much character and the owner is great to work with. Hell let you in with your own food and drink, or hes happy to brew you some coffee or even staff someone to make drinks during your event. We just had a baby shower there and it was wonderful :)

Wow! Best cup of coffee in town! We ordered the Lavender Almond Latte and an Americano. Both were amazing. First time here but definitely coming back!!!

Ive visited several times while seeing family in the area. The service is always particularly kind, attentive and thoughtful! The coffee is EXCELLENT!! (And I am from Seattle where coffee has high standards to meet!! Ha!)

Went to their Tuesday night break bread soup dinner. Its free, people were very friendly. It was a night I needed it more than ever, wish I wouldve stayed for a second bowl.... Highly recommend!

I should of checked times. It was closed so went to travellers. Great salad bar

Lovely cafe! Warm and pleasant atmosphere. Fabulous coffee. Very personable service. I will return and bring a friend!

Im a big fan of the coffee here. I was driving through for a wedding and stopped here to get some work done and ended up buying some of the beans they roast in house because I enjoyed it so much. Nice atmosphere, plenty of space, and decent wifi. Ill definitely stop in here again next time Im in Alex.

Great warm atmosphere when I met a friend visiting overseas, which this place was a half way point to meet. Love my smoothie I had, which I wished I took a pic of. Would love to come back for a concert or event as they have a small stage.

Great time with open mic night. Amazing young people playing and singing hearts out and honoring their God. Wonderful hospitality from the owner and opportunity for others to listen watch or perform!

Great place to stop for coffee on our way out of town. Made the camping trip at Lake Carlos all the more memorable!

Cute little place. Fast service. Friendly service. Great coffee!

Great place to dip away from the lake if you need a cup of coffee or to get some work done - drinks are delicious, lots of space, and a great environment to socialize or be productive!

Awesome to finally have a private, locally owned coffee house that roasts their own beans. Employees are all very friendly and genuinely interested.

This morning was a very peaceful and quiet visit with my sister.I had the Breakfast Sandwich on their cheddar bread and it was delicious.

Great place to meet and fellowship.The coffee is great too! lol

A wonderful place for fresh roasted coffee or a specialty drink. They have great lunch options as well.

Awesome little coffee shop with friendly staff! Amazing Chai tea latte. Has a neat prayer wall where people can write prayer requests. Plenty of seating.

Great atmosphere and excellent coffee. What else can you ask for?! They even roast their own beans in house!

The owner is always super friendly and makes the best London Fog ever!

PECAN PRALINE PLEASE

Wanda Krueger is the best stylist ever! Cant wait till she gets her own salon open in December.

Very nice place to meet friends.

Wonderful place for everyone. The owners are beyond kind. Friendly atmosphere.

Community supported, Blessed by God, great coffee and really nice place to go. Check out latest car in glass elevator!

Needs an elevator. The steps are treacherous. No restrooms on 2nd floor. It was nice and private once you get your breath after climbing them stairs.

Cozy place and the mocha I had was delicious! Staff very friendly!

The atmosphere is very uplifting . It is a perfect place to meet with friends or to hold business meetings.

Amazing, unique, local coffee shop. Bill has created a gem in downtown Alexandria.

Coffee is great and so are the people. Fellowship in a comfortable setting.

I love the stage for artists and the prayer wall! Such a welcoming environment and the hot chocolate is to die for!
