Common Grounds Franklin
3401 Franklin Ave, Waco, TX
Crema's Take
“Common Grounds Franklin is a beautifully restored historic space in downtown Waco that excels at creating a welcoming third place, with a genuine commitment to quality shown through their rotating dual drip coffee selections and standout food partnerships like Chulada De Maíz. The generous outdoor porch seating makes it an ideal spot for morning coffee and conversation, though be mindful that their frozen drink program wraps up well before closing time.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu. Wifi.

I can't believe this place has been open for almost a year and this was my first visit! I really love this location!! It's makes me so happy to see an old building like this, renovated into such a beautiful retro space!! I love mid century modern decor/design and they knocked it…
