First off, this is not my preferred coffee house. I received a gift card to CG a while back. I decided to use it last week and was informed that the gift card system had changed and that I would have to call someone to see about transferring to new card. When I called I was informed that there was nothing they could do since they switched ownership and no longer have access to the system. I was told that they had signs posted to inform customers but in this case made no difference since I don't go there. The latte that I did get on the day that I was told my gift card wasn't valid was mediocre at best, stale coffee, and weak flavors. There are much better coffee houses in Lexington to go to.

I'm extremely dissatisfied with how the common grounds are now, it used to be so cool. It used to have a lot of cool graffiti and art on the wall, that's what made it the Common grounds after all! Even more so I can't go up stairs to study anymore with my friends so I most likely won't come here again.

I hate giving 3 stars, but I really feel like I need to. My husband and I were in town for the weekend and eat a vegan diet. With that being said, we are super intentional about where we go, bc, let's face it, not all places serve food or drinks that we can eat. On their website, this coffee joint boasted vegan-friendly menu items and since we were going around 11, we decided that we would go ahead and get something to eat with our "morning" coffee. We went in (service was amazing by the way!) and ordered a veggie burger and asked about their vegan muffins... to which they said "oh, we don't have any vegan food anymore, we used to, but demand wasn't high enough in the area" we weren't upset or anything, but we did let them know that their website should probably be updated. We ended up forgoing the food and just had a dirty chai with coconut milk and a cappuccino with the same. The drinks were good.

We were visiting family from out of town and stopped by for some coffee. Very welcoming atmosphere, the drinks were great, and all of the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Even though it's always busy, we never have to wait for more than a few minutes. Faster than a drive thru, frankly. Great atmosphere!
