north country grounds is my favorite place to stop and study or meet up with friends for coffee/smoothie bowls! I try a different bowl most times I go and can say I have never been disappointed! I’m so excited to come back and get the apple pie bowl however since that was my favorite last fall! the service here is great! all the workers are friendly and helpful when you have questions and the owner is super sweet! the atmosphere is super cozy and comfortable and I always love the music playing! 10/10 recommend especially for students looking for a cozy place to study with good food and coffee!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

We've been there twice and both times for easy lunch. I love their unique toasts and coffee. It would be nice if they cleaned the seating tables more, so I'm giving them 4 stars for that reason. (There were a few tables that were a little dirty from probably previous customers when we were deciding where to sit.) Although based on their food quality, highly recommend and my favorite local cafe so far.

This was my first time at the new location, although I have gone to the old spot in the square a few times. They’ve definitely moved into a larger space that’s still welcoming, clean, and provides a great atmosphere. I got the tropical dragonfruit bowl w/o kiwi (they gave me no trouble accommodating my request) and it was delicious. The only reason for 4/5 stars for food was because of the price: I payed ~$13 plus tip which I think is a little too much for the size of the bowl. Had I ordered a drink I’m sure it would’ve been a ~$20 meal total. Still, I had a very good experience; went in on a Friday afternoon, was able to order immediately, and had no trouble finding a place to sit. The employees were very friendly and offered recommendations. Overall, it’s a great spot to grab lunch with a friend or to get some work done!
