    Date: 05/Jun/2022, Sunday 10am To be honest at first I saw a 4.7 I really wanted to come to this place for a breakfast. Then we went. Ordered 3 coffee and a big breakfast. Coffee was taking reasonable time to arrive, but the big breakfast was really not something I wanted to order again, simply the food was taking 20 something minutes to arrive. There was no other sit in customers in shop. I know they prep everything fresh but with what that shop have it is very difficult as they don’t have kitchen/fire. About the food: hash brown was chewy and dry, not something I expected, the sausage was a little small, bacon was also pretty salty, a bit too heavily salted. Only reason why this is more than 1 star was the eggs were cooked OK and staff friendly replied with the reasonable request. I personally will not come to this shop again. I guess if you are just to order take away coffee it will be OK.

    I don't often post reviews but thought I'd post this after our experience of having brunch was contrary to a lot of reviews on here. Food was mediocre, expensive and took ages to come out. Coffee was bad and service from the manager was lacking. It may have been a bad day or something, but we all left pretty dissatisfied afterwards. It was a Saturday when our group walked in and the cafe was empty with one staff member behind the counter. He was unwelcoming and just stared at us. We had to ask him if we could sit. We waited over 45 mins for food because we weren't told that the manager was manning the cafe alone until we overheard him telling another customer that his other staff had left for an emergency. As other reviewers have said, there is no kitchen. A simple heads up that food would be delayed would have been appreciated before he took our money when the staff had already left. We ordered a Brekky Wrap, Turkish Sandwich and two Eggs Benedicts with drinks which ended up being over $90 for the four of us. I would have happily paid this at any other cafe in Marrickville, but not for what we received at this one. The 'monster' wrap as it was described had barely anything in it, the sandwich was sad for $16 and the eggs benedicts was drowned in tasteless creamy sauce. The coffee tasted watery and thin. I would recommend people just go elsewhere nearby.

    Very warm people and warm service. Idea of having a "Couch zone" with chess playing options is brilliant! They should adorn the walls with nice images though!

    A good place to go for coffee, a great place to go for a game of chess & the best place for a conversation with the team at grounded xo! I recommend going here.

    The coffee here is as good as anywhere. You can’t fault the big breakfast. It’s huge and good value. Bacon and egg roll is yummy! Very friendly service and well laid out. I always come here and they always come through with the goods! Friendly, quality and value! Highly recommend this lovely cafe!
