Warning, this is NOT a Starbucks! So if you're looking for that, don't bother.
But this IS the cutest little neighborhood coffee shop, run by a super sweet lady. It is unique and everything I've had there is delicious. So, if you want a fabulous warm drink and an interesting place to drink it on a cold rainy day, you should find Common Grounds and settle in.

What a funky, friendly place. From the people watching chair, it would appear everyone enjoys the place!
My husband and I have spent countless hours here sipping a salted caramel ganache or a mango smoothie while working on our computers. Iris is such a sweet and caring lady and always makes us feel loved. Numerous regulars frequent this place and many memories have been made here. This is the perfect spot to meet up with a friend for a coffee and heart-to-heart chat. A visit to Brown County isn't really complete unless you stop in here.
I absolutely loved this coffee shop! I spend a lot of time in small and locally owned coffee shops. Common Grounds is truly a unique experience.
The owner was welcoming from the moment we walked in and my son had a great visit she even let him take a kids book home! No better way to describe it thank how she did. “ My living room mixed with a coffee shop”.
The coffee was great and the froothies too! If visiting Nashville you should stop in and get some coffee such a cool vibe for a coffee shop!
I friend and I went last week when a storm passed through. Power went out in the whole town so any place that stayed open was pretty dark and cash only. The ladies in there did their best and we got very refreshing iced coffees. Someone was playing piano and singing so wonderfully that I was sure it was a battery operated radio and was a different version of a song I knew. Seems like a lovely store, look forward to going again and seeing more of it next time, with lights and more time to enjoy the ambiance.
One of my favorite places to be. Iris always makes me feel and home and welcome while giving me amazing coffee or tea.
Very comfy,cozy place to chill out. Iris, the owner, wasnt still long enough to get a good pic of her. Great place to hang out alone or have a get together. Quiche, Scones, huge cookies, etc...plus its a coffee house. One of those places that you walk in a stranger and leave as a friend.
Loved it here. Great coffee. Very friendly owner and a really interesting place full of interesting things. I'll definitely go back.
