Crema's Take

Grounds For Celebration has earned years of loyalty with remarkably consistent, espresso-forward coffee and creative signature drinks that locals genuinely rave about—their flavored coffees are particularly special. Beyond the cup, this is a genuine community gathering spot where the welcoming staff, thoughtful food offerings (like their standout Mexican street corn soup), and ample seating make it equally perfect for a solo coffee moment or hosting a monthly trivia night with friends.

I've been going to the Windsor Heights and Beaverdale location for YEARS. Some of the best and most consistent coffee around. Their flavored coffee is (chef's kiss). I will usually get a large flavored coffee and steamed milk and that is perfect for me. The lattes are delicious and well made, the perfect balance of espresso and milk. The vibes are 90's coffeeshop and a good place to have a quiet conversation with a friend or study. The cinnamon rolls are also top notch!

The friendly atmosphere, fun and well-made drinks, and delicious food keep me coming back. The Mexican street corn soup today was amazing - thicker like a chowder, with a mild to medium spice, and everything you think of with street corn. I highly recommend it!

This is a cute place for a cup of coffee with friends. My church hosts a trivia night here about once a month. I usually have a skinny latte with sugar free vanilla. It is delicious. The staff is super friendly.

A cute coffee shop with variety of food and drinks option. There’s plenty of seating both inside and and outside. I got some ginger lemongrass tea and the last decadent cinnamon bun of the day!

Nice place. Came in around 11am on Sunday. Did not have to wait for service. They roast their own beans here which says a lot about a coffee shop. I ordered a decaf macchiato. I had already had a lot of caffeine earlier but I love coffee. The decaf was indistinguishable from the caffeinated brew my boyfriend got. Amazing to still have decent flavor and be almost caffeine-free! Space was beautiful and baristas were super-friendly. Plenty of places to sit, inside and out.
