Ultimate Grounds Et Al

Ultimate grounds is a institution. Their menu seems unchanging and gigantic, everything is yummy, and the cafe has such a sweet community vibe. The old owners were so kind and hardworking and Im glad to see their son continuing to work at the business.

I have eaten here many times and it is always the same…. Great is worth the stop

Love this family-owned coffee-shop! Open space, different seating arrangements if I get bored in one position, there are regular table + chairs, including tall tables, and couches. Friendly customer service. There is no air-condition which I think is a plus because I usually get cold in other study cafes, they do have ceiling fans for airflow! Food is yummy, recommend the eggplant sandwich and thai iced tea!

Absolutely love this shop! The kindest staff (who remembered my coffee order after just one time and proactively make it when they see me walk in so I dont have to wait after paying!) Plus great coffee and breakfast sandwiches. I'd go every day if I still lived closer!

This place was a great place to meet a Facebook Marketplace buyer. The shop owner was kind, and he seemed to know his customer’s favorite snacks. I especially liked the Rice Krispies treats and the Super-8 movie camera I acquired.

Love, love, love Ultimate Grounds! It's my neighborhood, family owned cafe, and a cozy spot for lunch in their lovely garden patio in the back. The staff are always sweetly courteous and friendly. The menu offers a variety of light breakfast and lunch options in addition to espresso drinks. Imo, they make the perfect BLT. Highly recommend it for a quick bite and coffee.

I recently discovered this gem of a coffee shop in Glenview run by a Cambodian family. From their simple yet scrumptious breakfast options to their pocket-friendly prices, it's a brilliant way to start your day. The expedient service adds to the delightful experience. Highly recommend!

Love this spots egg salad sandwiches! Their chai latte is delicious as well. The owner is so friendly and makes this spot feel welcoming and warm!

I stop here pretty regularly. The couple who own the coffee shop are really service oriented and offer delicious edibles (not that kind, good lord, take a deep breath). They make an excellent cup of coffee or a latte or cappuccino. Their breakfast and lunch selection will appeal to just about anybody. One specialty item they carry is cubed watermelon. I don't know how they do it but they ALWAYS have the freshest and sweetest bites. They open at 7 am and like I often say "you can't go wrong with this place"

The coffee and the food are both very good.

I ordered a white chocolate mocha, and the espresso had a great flavor.
I also ordered a breakfast sandwich with egg and bacon, which was cooked well and tasted amazing.
Lastly, the chocolate macaroon was delicious!

I recommend going here.

Nice little coffee shop. Has front seat outdoor and also a small back courtyard with a few seats. Inside has a large seating area with table and couches. Coffee is very good and staff very polite. Large selection of syrups. Good selection of drinks and pastries and teas. Some vegan option too.

Really good sandwiches and coffee. My friend and I were comfortable catching up for hours and eating well. Very welcoming and calm atmosphere!

Lovely staff and great service in this neighborhood gem of a coffee shop. I love the iced chai lattes, my kids love the grilled ham and cheese on a croissant

I love this place. It's a small, intimate shop, family owned and operated. Always have fresh coffee. The staff is friendly, and they make an effort to remember their regular customers (and their orders). They have a decent selection of pastries, sandwiches, coffees, and teas, and are willing to make fresh cuts to order. You won't be disappointed visiting this place.

consistent, clean, friendly, good quality! mom/pop shop with lots of seating, plus a couple tables in the back area outside. owner recognizes me and knows my drink! always a pleasure eating here.

We love them. Best bacon, egg and cheese in the Bay area according to my kids. Excellent coffee. They nail the basics and price reasonably.

I love this place! I work a few blocks away so it's a regular lunch haunt. The Chai lattes, Thai iced tea, and lox bagels keep me alive! The staff is wonderful, they remember you and your regular orders. Nice and quiet, good place to relax or get a little work done.

Great locally owned coffee shop! Nothing is earth shatteringly amazing other than their baked goods, but all is very tasty, fresh, and consistently high quality.

This place is worth supporting and runs laps around Peet's and the like.

Ultimate Grounds is a wonderful place. Anna, Seng and the whole staff are lovely, caring and very kind. They make every effort to make everyone feel totally welcome. The coffee and food is delicious. This is our little neighborhood gem.

I stop here a few times a week. Very friendly service. My favorite snacks are the ham and cheese croissant and fresh fruit & granola yogurt cup. It's a great place to sit and hang out (tables inside and outside) or to pop in on your way.
