Hazelwood, since the early days

Just enough busy, just enough quiet.

Coffee from our house espresso blend, breakfast and lunch from the kitchen, bakes on the counter, and a seat in the sun on the corner of Firwood and 16th.

Find your perfect coffee spot.

Ground is a community of familiar faces, smiles and waves. The space is filled with happy, creative vibes: runners in at six, laptops mid-morning, long lunches under the umbrellas.

Sit downstairs at the street or take the stairs to the deck. Either way the coffee is the same, and it's good.
