Uncommon Grounds Coffeehouse
2809 Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN
Crema's Take
“Uncommon Grounds is a serene, rustically charming spot in a historic Minneapolis duplex where chai lovers find their sanctuary—the "orgasmic chai" and exceptional spiced drinks keep regulars coming back, and the quiet, unhurried atmosphere makes it perfect for lingering over tea with a friend or settling in with a laptop. The bakery offerings, particularly the scones and cinnamon rolls, match the quality of the drinks, and the thoughtful baristas seem genuinely invested in making your visit memorable, even if portions run a bit generous on the pricing.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.
