I just got done eating at one of my favorite sushi restaurants, Otaku, when I decided I needed an afternoon pick me up before heading back to work. I pulled out the old iPhone and yelped coffee shops in the area and it led me to this magical place called Grove Coffee that was very close by. Boy did Yelp strike gold with this gem of a place.
Fantastic fantastic fantastic coffee! I had the Cuban and it was absolutely one of the best cups of coffee I've had. The barista was very nice and explained all of the ingredients that went into the Cuban to me. I wish I had better listening skills to explain it to you all but you might as well just go and get one for yourself. The barista was very interested to hear about my feedback. We talked a good bit about possible ideas for them and I think a happy hour special is around the corner. Wouldn't be too shabby.
Very chilled relaxed atmosphere. Parents were enjoying their coffee while there was plenty of kids activities to keep the children entertained i.e. board games to play with and a jungle gym in the back. Don't worry parents, there is outdoor seating for you to watch your kids enjoy the playground.
Definitely my new favorite coffee shop in Chandler, or Gilbert...whatever, pretty much same city.
It is right next to the Grove Church which makes it pretty hard to see from the street. Not the best visibility but hey, can't win them all. There is a Starbucks up the road, do yourself a favor and drive a quarter mile South and enjoy the wonderfulness of Grove Coffee.
