Crema's Take
“Good Ground's staff has mastered the art of making every customer feel like a regular, turning what could be a forgettable pit stop into a destination worth the drive through rural Illinois. The drink menu punches well above its weight—especially the Shark Bite boba and their knockout hot chocolate—and baristas genuinely want to customize drinks for you rather than just ring you up. This unassuming spot proves that great coffee and hospitality matter infinitely more than a polished storefront.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu.

See all on Google →Totally unassuming coffee shop in the middle of not much to see. But don't let the neighborhood fool you, because this shop gave. The staff was welcoming and fun, customer service top tier, and the coffee delicious. Definitely worth the stop en route. Thank you Steph and Helena!
So cute, amazing drink selection, I love that the baristas will customize and give suggestions if you ask, a great place to work or chat with friends or just grab a yummy drink and snack or lunch! The boba teas and dirty sodas are my favorite and I love how easy and quick it is…
Stopped in for a coffee and pastry and being open on News Year’s Day was a plus. Friendly customer service and the coffee was really good along with the pastry. Definitely recommend!
Shark Bite is definitely my favorite boba drink there! They also have the best hot chocolate and iced caramel macchiato! Their staff is super friendly and makes you feel welcome. I definitely recommend stopping in when you’re in the Scott AFB area!
I'm not exactly sure when they open but it's still a very new experience. Everything is very clean and kind of disorganized at some points with all kinds of different colored chairs but I'm assuming that makes it more homely in a way? It was a very comfortable temperature inside…
