Great service and location. This location had plenty of seating so a great option for meeting friends.

DELICIOUS and amazing spot. I loved the decoration and ambiance it had. Like a vintage and thrift style. The peach Arnold Palmer was my favorite drink

The people are outstanding and the coffee was amazing...please come to North Dakota! Need more locations

Great service! The Barista, Aubrie, was very informative and friendly. She made great recommendations to our group. Everyone loved the secret sauce. Stop by and enjoy yourself.

Coffee was absolutely delicious! There was a very distinct taste that did not leave me with a bitter/burnt after taste like most chain stores do. Service was fast and friendly. Ambiance was a combination of comfort and business.

If you want good coffe this is the place. Every time I visit this is my go to spot. Staff is very friendly amd always helpful in making suggestions. Cheers!

I have been visiting Common Grounds anytime I'm in Waco since my older sister attended Baylor. The vibes here are always immaculate! Such cute areas to sit, and I love the vintage feel of the decor. I've tried a variety of their drinks, and they're always delicious! The staff here is also wonderful, and so great at making sure you're happy with your order. I definitely recommend coming by while you're in Waco!

No negative things to say what-so-ever. This out of towner grabbed coffee here each morning the past four mornings prior to my seminars on campus. I'm a huge fan of locally owned coffee shops; I'd rather go local than to some of these big chains ANY DAY. The fact that the owners are Baylor grads and have an admirable mission statement and purpose refreshes the soul. The quaint little antiquey house meets cabin in the woods atmosphere is probably the best I've experienced in a coffee shop. Walking inside almost feels like you've walked into a tree itself - a tree complete with plenty of eclectic seating options. If I had more time to "just hang out" - I'd be parked in here. I've had multiple lattes - with and without their "secret sauce" - which is good, but quickly becomes overly sweet (and I'm a lover of sweets). This morning I opted for "light secret sauce", and found that the perfect balance. Can't say enough about the staff. Each morning I've been met with positive, friendly vibes, recommendations, and fast service. I'm looking forward to a few more mornings starting with Common Grounds. There's definitely a reason this place has been around since the mid 90s.
