    Truely fabulous location for a bite to eat, a coffee or just a chill out. Beautiful products on sale as well of you so feel that's what's you're after. The building captures the sunshine wonderfully and its bright and spacious inside. The staff are kind and courteous, able to have a nice chat generally with them too which is a delight. Background music is great and not too overpowering. They are dog friendly and have outdoor seating too if you fancy the direct sunlight. I enjoyed a latte and the wild mushroom risotto this visit and was thoroughly impressed. Great portion, superb price, and the flavour was spot on! Highly recommended from me! Came previously with my best pal and Common grounds was equally as fabulous during that visit, open late too of you're wanting to go somewhere other than a big coffee chain after work. And a neat place to enjoy if you can work remotely too.

    Small locally run business, printing, plants and coffees, no food Mondays and Tuesdays and a few people were disappointed and came in to ask. They need a separate sign for earlier in the week that says no food as the sign outside advertises food. Really nice and they let me work here for the day and use the wi-fi in exchange for buying coffees. Not too noisy but a steady flow of people in and out. Only thing they could have improved would be to offer food on Mondays and Tuesday as their menu looked much tastier than what I had to go and buy on far gosford st. I had to get an unhealthy option further afield.

    Held a fantastic 30th birthday party here. The owners couldn't have been more accommodating with what we wanted. The pizzas served throughout the night were delicious. Good selection of drinks with great service too. The in-house PA system provides high quality music creating a proper party atmosphere. Couldn't recommend it highly enough to hire out. Thanks again to Kate and the team.

    Bright and lovely place with very friendly and welcoming staff and really incredible coffee too. It's clear that the owners have put their heart and soul into the place to create a fun and unique atmosphere. Highly recommended.

    This is a really lovely and friendly establishment. Always great coffees and lovely food on sale. A nice selection of vegan and vegetarian food usually with a few cakes and cookies too! If you are ever in the area you have to pop in for a look around as there are some great artworks on display and lovely plants and gifts to buy. A true gem 💎

    After visiting Commonground for a coffee after a nice afternoon in Fargo Village. At a glance it looked very modern inside it wasnt until my coffee was being made i noticed that the cakes ontop of the counter next to me were uncovered and crawling with flys, these same flys were then flying into the chiller below as it wasn't closed and crawling over everything in there as well, which im fairly sure is a fail with the health board. If thats front of house looks like, id hate to see the kitchen. After taking a seat kinda regretting my choice in venue but already purchased my coffee i decided a seat wouldn't be that bad.......after i look round at the art from my perch i noticed my table wasnt wiped very well either or any of the others in my vicinity for that fact. As an adult let alone a business owner or employee basic food hygiene is not hard to understand or follow and in total was a disgusting experience to visit for just a coffee thank god i didnt eat there. They get two stars only because the coffee was good eles it would have been one star
