Good thing they ventured out on cafes! An avid fan of their shoe cleaning services. I was sad when their branch closed in the greenery but only now i discovered they got this new and better place! The place was so pleasing and calming. I ordered the salted caramel latte wc was for me an exceptional one! It was a great experience indeed.
Four of us friends ordered Spanish Latte to go. I loved it. I would love to try their other coffees on their menu. The place has a cool ambiance. Color palette isn't too bright or too fancy. Furniture is particulary artsy and interestingly comfortable. Not boring at all. Inside is a skateboarding merch shop where one can browse or get "budol" while coffee is being brewed. This is a nice addition to the coffee shops in Central Bloc. I will definitely come back.
I stopped by for just a regular iced matcha latte. The vibes are really good and the staff is very friendly but unfortunately my iced matcha was basically just green milk—very very bland :(
Having visited Common Ground for the second time, I can attest to its pleasant ambiance and quick service. While the drinks are enjoyable, they don't particularly stand out as exceptional. The matcha, in particular, didn't quite meet my expectations. However, their Cà Phê Viet Nam is definitely a highlight worth trying. As for the pastries, I found them to be on the drier side, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, while it's a decent spot for a quick bite and a drink, it didn't quite hit the mark in terms of delivering standout flavors.
Ordered the Matcha Latte (switched to oat milk) and I think it was pretty good. The taste reminds me of the matcha latte from The Matcha Tokyo, which I really like. It's kinda cold inside so bring a jacket. Lighting is a bit dim but I guess that's just the vibe of the place.
