Center Ground Coffee Shop, Brooklyn IA

This is a great place. Staff are friendly, and the mocca Frappuccinos are better than ️'s.

Absolutely worth the 10 minute detour off of I80…. Found this Gem of a coffee shop during our travels! Service was great, cozy and chic decor. The coffee is absolutely delicious.
I ordered the “Canadian” (cold) and my wife ordered the “Montreal” (hot) both delicious! The barista was super friendly (I forgot to ask their name)!
They get their coffee from a local roaster! If you enjoy a good coffee, you won’t regret the short drive over, my only regret is we came through too early to get to experience any other shops or businesses in this charming little town.

I could see myself hanging here with a friend for an hour or two. Our trio of a fam stopped and got two coffees & two pastries and an applesauce pouch. I ordered a specialty drink called the Montreal. The cinnamon hit just right on those first sips, making me long for fall! And the fact that the specials are auto oat milk instead of an add on, it nice. My tummy thanks you! Fantastic coffee and tasty goodies in the case.
We usually stop here on our way out of town after visiting fam. We’ll continue stopping by!

Perfect addition to Brooklyn! Love the decor, staff is friendly, and love the drink and food options!

The person working was nice and the service was fast. I ordered an iced chai latte and my husband ordered one of the specials. He liked his but my chai latte was basically just iced milk. I tossed it as soon as we walked out of the shop. I've never gotten a chai latte that didn't taste like chai from anywhere else since it's just a concentrate with milk added to it. I'm not sure how that gets messed up. We probably won't stop in again.
