My husband and I stopped into Gathering Grounds and immediately felt comfortable. The exposed brick, leather seating, and warm wood tones give the space a relaxed western charm that feels genuine and inviting.
I had the bacon cheddar scone and a mocha, the scone was savory and fresh, and the mocha was smooth and rich without being overly sweet. It was such a nice place to sit for a bit, talk, and enjoy a quiet moment together in downtown Bertram.

The name Gathering Grounds provides incredible insight into the heart of this establishment! Indeed they serve great coffee, but even more amazing is the kind, caring, helpful, courteous staff! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the seating and furnishings include quaint booths for 2, large comfy chairs around a low table (like beng in your living room), and a couple massive tables that seat 8! It is truly a sweet gathering place and a treat for both people in the surrounding communities and those out for a drive or ride. May the Lord continue to bless this establishment and those they serve!

Cute little spot ! Really cool inside the coffee was good and the sausage quiche was good but small portioned (reason for a 4). Service was awesome ! Will be back and recommend stopping for a cup of joe when in Bertram.

I am happy that Bertram has such a nice coffee house! This place is larger than I expected, especially with the additional patio area out the back. There is plenty of seating from booths to comfortable soft reading, lounging chairs begging for quiet conversations and laughter among friends. The outside looks like a fun hangout place adorned with great string lights for evening gatherings.
This place left a great first impression and I look forward to my next visit.
PS. The quiche was good.

Stopped for an hour to get pictures with Santa. The coffee was great and the kids loved the experience. The welcoming, cozy atmosphere and the incredibly friendly staff make this a perfect five-star experience that I recommend to everyone passing through.

Cutest little coffee shop! Great atmosphere and friendly service. The staff will help you find something you like even if you’re not a coffee drinker. Try their blended affogato, it’s amazing!

LOVE this amazing new coffeeshop! I have been anxiously anticipating the grand opening and it did not disappoint!! Great coffee, incredibly kind owners and staff, very clean, beautiful atmosphere with nice ambiance and music, with extra big and comfy seating areas and spacious tables for groups or to meet new friends in our community. This place is truly a lovely place to gather together, as the name states. This is our new favorite spot! And you’ve gotta try the cherry pie!!

Quite a quaint, warmly friendly and inviting place! We enjoyed a scone, cookie, coffee and hot chocolate. We look forward to coming back to try the lunch items and sitting in the lovely outside area. Might even have to s so by just for a beer or glass of wine!

Impeccable food, drinks, service, and atmosphere. I’ve had GG saved as my hometown stop for a while now and was finally able to visit a week ago. I was impressed. I haven’t had such a good affogato in Austin since leaving the NYC metro a few years back. The pastries are homemade, just the right touch of sweetness, and so flavorful. I even walked back here on my lunch break during the week for the shortbread bars, and they were simple yet rich. I love this place so much! And the girls are really sweet too!
