We’ve been longtime fans of Rise n’ Grind, the cozy coffee shop next door, so we were thrilled to try out the new addition, Garden Girl—and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel so welcome, even amidst the buzz and excitement of launching a brand-new business.
The food was absolutely incredible. The Açaí bowl was bursting with freshness, and the sandwich—piled high with tender roast beef—was hearty and satisfying. Every bite felt like it was made with care and quality ingredients.
As if lunch wasn’t delightful enough, we continued our outing by grabbing an iced tea from Rise n’ Grind and exploring the second floor. The upstairs area is a treasure trove of local shops, each offering unique finds that perfectly round out the experience.
Garden Girl has quickly earned a spot on our list of regular go-to places. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you’re truly missing out on a gem in the heart of Rising Sun. Stop by and see for yourself—you won’t regret it!

I usually only leave reviews when something falls short, so I’m glad to share a positive one here. I finally tried this spot after it’s been open for a while, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the roast beef — I’d seen some reviews saying it was cold and underwhelming, but they offered to toast it, and it was fantastic. So, while the sandwich can be served cold, you have the option to get it warmed, which makes a big difference. Overall, it was fresh, flavorful, and exactly the kind of place this area needs. My only minor concern is that it felt a little pricey, but given the quality, it wasn’t unreasonable especially given the costs of anything anymore.

I’ve gotten a few things from here – the farmers pick salad, the broccoli chedder soup and the roast beef sandwich. They have all been delicious! However this last time I did a make your own Acai bowl with banana, peanut butter, flax seed, chia seed and granola. It was delicious! One of the best I’ve ever had. Great place to stop and get coffee and food!

The town is coming back. This is a great place to get some wonderful food. It’s a small place with only 4 small tables. It’s a place your order to a counter person and grab a drink from the cooler, kinda place. I had a southwest chicken salad with the dressing on the side and a bottle of water. My sister had a chicken sandwich that she really enjoyed.

Though my family and I have been to Rise and Grind many times, this was our first time trying Garden Girl.
I don’t normally like acai, but I wanted to give it another try. I told the very polite, professional, and friendly young lady at the counter, Laney, to make me what she felt would be a good representation of the restaurant. She asked me what she could and couldn’t use, which only left out coconut, and I told her I would try anything else. AMAZING! The bowl was great, very fresh, and perfectly balanced. I can’t wait to go back and try their salads, they looked very fresh and sounded tasty.
We love local small businesses and are happy to support such a great one!!

I love it here!! All the food is delicious and the staff is very nice. The tropical sunrise bowl is my favorite! I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a fun, healthy option!! Also my bestie designed the logo so that’s iconic.

The açaí bowl is supposed to be fresh fruit so it took me out of my zone when pineapple was canned and coconut sweetened out of a bag, the roast beef sandwich had bbq sauce on it but it’s served cold.
So overall was ok, not the best.
