The best coffee shop in the Gorge! You can drive thru or walk up. I am not a big coffee drinker, but I love the hot chais, smoothies and my favorite is the blend and bean chai with whipped cream! A good selection of bagels too if you need a quick snack! Always great service from the barristas.

I have lived here for around a year and have gone to grinders on and off through out the year due to the drinks never being made the same. I recently asked a question when I was at the window on why my blended COFFEE drinks never taste like coffee. They said that’s because I have to ask for espresso in my drink. Can someone please make that make sense? Why would I have to ask to have COFFEE in my coffee drink??? For example I love to get an iced caramel macchiato which naturally comes with espresso, why if I were to order a blended caramel macchiato would I have to ask for shots (espresso) in my drink? It’s not like that drink is a milkshake or that there should be confusion with this. Please someone make this make sense. (FROM A FORMER BARISTA)

I ordered two drinks and they completely F’ed up at the most basic level. I ordered the Mexican Mocha, which would seem to imply there’d actually be some Espresso in it, right?! No!!! They forgot to add the espresso shots!!! Seriously!!! How distracted/oblivious do you have to be to forget the Espresso shots at a coffee shop?!?!
The second drink was the “S’mores” mocha, which tasted extremely watered down and tasted nothing like s’more… It did however have espresso in it, so yay for the small wins.

*Date and time of visit: Friday July 8th 6:15 PM
*I understand that you’re a small business and you pay for your family needs and not pleasure yachts, which is why I called first, but nobody picked up, so that’s when we left feedback another way. As you stated, this is unacceptable, but sadly not the first time based upon previous reviews stating “no espresso” and “watered down.”
*I do not live nearby, we were just passing thru, and as such there is no making it right for us. I do appreciate your response and wish you luck in quality staffing/training going forward.

Best white mocha I’ve had in a long time. I think it said that they use Ethiopian coffee.

Good place to get your caffeine fix. Staff is friendly prices are comparable to other similar coffee places. During peek hours you may have a line to sit in just like other drive-thru coffee shops. The one thing that makes this place stand out above most of the other coffee shops is it 100% locally owned. Check them out to get that hometown feeling when your visiting or if your a local it’s always good to put money into the locals that are trying to provide our area with quality services and products .

Grinders says they open at 6am but I went at 7am and there wasn’t anyone working. Too bad, I really wanted to give them a try while I was in town! Maybe next time…if they’re open.

Like moat recent post states the coffee is weak and overly filled with cream and what not. I love sugary drinks but this just tasted like vanilla ice cream with syrup, not very good. 🙁

Drive-thru coffee in downtown TD, next to Ace Hardware.
Great cup of coffee, served quickly with a smile and at the perfect temperature.
