Gather Around at the Grounds in Gather Grounds Coffee & Eatery

Going there, I tried some of the food and drinks from the menu. The menu itself had varieties of drinks and food that were offered. For those in search of a quick bite, the café offers a selection of sandwiches, pasta, salads, rice, and more. They were all reasonably priced so it was good for a broke student like me. I ordered the Strawberry Soda, which was really refreshing after being under the heat for a while before. I also got the Tom Yum Spaghetti which had a little kick to it, but as a pasta enthusiast, it was good. Lastly, I shared a Cheese & Egg Mayo Sandwich with a friend and it was filling, especially with the fries on the side. Overall, I would highly recommend for those looking for a relaxing cafe to eat, study, or just hang around at, to go to Gather Grounds. Just the vibe of the place made it really easy for me to focus and do my work there so it would be my next go-to study area for a while. 

Café by day, pub by night, Gather Grounds Coffee & Eatery is a hub for coffee lovers and cafe hoppers alike. A new hot spot that opened recently, it is a cafe recommended by many students. As it is close to the school—around five to ten minutes—many students could go after school for a treat or to relax. Upon entering the cafe, the atmosphere of the place is very cozy and inviting. The baristas and welcoming staff simply made the place brighter and much more fun. The cafe's interior is adorned with rustic wooden furniture, soft lighting, and vibrant pops of color. The place itself is big, so many people went either for work-related meetings or just for studying. One nice aspect of Gather Grounds is its spaciousness. I also can tell that the cafe attracts a crowd, ranging from people seeking a quiet spot to work or study to groups engaged in work-related meetings. The outdoor area provides a cozy retreat for families looking to enjoy their time together.
