Common Grounds

Mattoon's local coffee cafe spot. Thoroughly impressed with the drink I purchased and with the atmosphere inside and out. I'll be back soon....

I have nothing but good things to say about this place. I love the atmosphere, it's cute and quirky and fun. The coffee is excellent. I have enjoyed the people who work here in my brief experiences with them, they aren't overwhelming for an introvert. I go here anytime I'm in town (if they're open) which admittedly isn't as much as I'd like, but still. Love it. 100% recommend.

This place always has something new and delicious when i visit. The pastries are huge and amazing! The pumpkin donuts will... change your life.

The drinks are always made properly and taste fine. The staff is already kind and courteous. The decor and atmosphere is so cool, i could stay there all day. I would probably do work there every night if i lived in town!

Best coffee in town. The baristas are always friendly and make the perfect drink every time. Lots of unique and delicious cafe food items. From sandwiches to baked goods it's all good. Free Wi-Fi and a cool place to chill for a few hours.

I love this place because I almost never know what I want and the baristas help me figure out exactly what I'm in the mood for. Amazing customer service, great customer service and good, drinks, atmosphere, you can call ahead if you're in a hurry. Highly recommended.

The barista with the shorter reddish brown hair (I think her name is Jo?) is awesome! She makes the best drinks and always has positive vibes and is very polite(not to mention shes a fox).
I am dissappointed that the last 2 times I've been in there that they have been out of eggs for their breakfast sandwiches, but everything else is so good that I cant help but give it a 5 star rating. Especially if you get that pro barista Jo! She kills it.

Very nice cafe. The place is big and easy to find.
The coffee is great and if you get the coffee to stay there, you will feel comfy and warm.
The deco is original, and bohemio. I really enjoyed this place. I will be back whenever I am back to Mattoon, IL

Love their coffee. Great staff and comfortable atmosphere! Nice to have a quality coffee shop than can compete with the chain stores.

Quirky and Cute. Best smoothies and coffee we've ever had!

Went there to get a cappuccino prior to a client visit and the staff was friendly and made my coffee perfectly. Client suggested we go there for lunch after meetings and had a great sandwich.

Pretty great place for all kinds of coffee flavors. And a great place to meet your son and drink coffee and discuss life.
