Grounds & Goodies

This establishment's name is descriptive of the offerings, many coffees and delicious baked goods.

Spacious, relatively quiet comfortable dining room, no table service, order and pick up at counter.

Prompt friendly service.

Prices are moderate and consistent with quality, facility, menu and location.

Parking is free but limited to available on street space.

This is a very cute café. Our barista, Ashlynn, was very friendly.
My husband gets his lattes with alternative milk and they were out of both oat and soy milk. He doesn’t like coconut, so decided to try their new sesame milk alternative. It, unfortunately, was not very good. The temperature was nice and hot, which he did like.
My regular milk vanilla latte with added espresso shots was fine.

Great coffee and super sweet employees really cute little shop definitely would come back here the only thing that I would ask is that employees and guests wear masks great and I know that it has become a little more relaxed

GREAT coffee shop. Old school amazing ceiling. Have some serious baked goods that are fresh daily. My two youngest LOVED their monster M&M chocolate chip cookie. (Big enough to split). Had their raspberry coffee and it was delicious. A lot of coffee spots get their flavored coffees wrong but Grounds & Goodies nail it. I'll for sure be back!

A Grounds & Goodies sheet cake was provided for a church event and it is second to none! Our guests raved about how good it was.
Thick, moist, rich in flavor, and fair pricing. It's a pleasure to recommend
G & G as local "go-to" for anything sweet and homemade!
Sweet sentiments to you, Mary, and your little elves at the shop, too.

I love it here. Not only is the coffee and food outstanding, but Mary and the staff are lovely, friendly and engaging. Some of the best service you can receive. The cafe is warm and inviting, perfect for getting away for a while.

Mary provided the cakes for my wedding. Delicious, beautiful, glorious! Mark my words: Get. Raspberry. You won't regret it!

Such a nice place in a nice small town. And I'm not just saying that because my daughter works there 😉. Mary, the owner, loves what she does and you can see that in the quality of the coffees and baked goods. The staff is primarily local high school kids, but not like what you'd get at a chain store or fast food place. These kids really do a great job and take care of the customers.
Special requests are no problem either.
I highly recommend the Reformatory Razz... That's some good coffee!

The everything bagel with ham and cream cheese is delicious! There are also a large variety of coffees and Italian sodas. Their regular lunches are available daily, then they throw in a special at least once a week. Mary also does made to order cakes!

Great pastries and lunch items. Fresh and homemade by owner. Friendly service.
Wish they offered at least one gluten free item even if it was not homemade and offer a gluten free bread option for toast or sandwiches.

I live in CA and ordered a gift card to be sent to a person i know that lives in Anamosa. Unfortunately, i gave the owner an incorrect home address. When i called to see what they could do for me, the owner was more than happy to deliver a new gift card to the correct address. I can’t say enough thanks for how easy it was for me, even though i messed up with the address. Outstanding ownership and establishment!!

Mary and her team rock the world at Grounds and Goodies 🤩

Loved the specialty tea & salad. And a wonderful snickerdoodle cookie. Very cozy & fun place!

Great coffee, and delicious pastries; Everytime I have been there, the barista's are SO friendly and accommodating. If you like coffee, you should give it a try, if you don't like coffee, that's just weird...

I just ordered a gift card from Cabby and she was just the best!!!Super friendly and so helpful!!!Lucky to have such an amazing Employee!!!

Nice clean place. Friendly staff. The special was meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Large portion and good. Great prices and sweet s for desert.

Great coffee and tea drinks. We enjoyed the made in house eats as well. No bad choices here. Fun atmosphere too.

We had a cup of hot coffee and we bought several pastries to enjoy at home. Would highly recommend it.

The chocolate chip scones are perfect, as is the Wapsi Turtle.
(The wapsi turtle is a froofy sweetened latte named after the river that flows through town. It's everything you'd expect it to be.)
I live a block away from this joint, which is sadly just out of Wi-fi range. But they do have good wi-fi in the building.
That is all.

Been coming here for the past week daily. Awesome service, cute atmosphere, cozy setting. Great food and coffee and great prices!

The food is amazing and the staff are great. We enjoy going to Sally's. We eat there often.
