I tried The Grindstone's special this week-a ham, egg, and cheese on their cinnamon French toast bread-and it was absolutely delicious! It was so big I had to share half with my husband. I paired it with a vanilla oat milk shaken espresso, which was just as amazing. But honestly, the best part of visiting The Grindstone is always the friendly faces. They make every trip feel special. Highly recommend giving it a try if you haven't already!

Cute little coffee shop. Loved the comfort feel you get the minute when you walk through the door. Great tasting coffee, muffin, and the queen breakfast sandwich. Workers are very friendly and welcoming. Will be back to try some more of their stuff.
