Common Grounds

More Than Just Coffee & Eats At Common Grounds Cafe Tucked right here in Dallastown is a coffee shop that does something extraordinary—it brews confidence, inclusion, and opportunity for local youth with disabilities. Every cup served here supports job training, empowerment, and a space where everyone belongs. It’s the kind of place that reminds you how special our small towns really are—not just for the charm, but for the heart. Supporting businesses like this is one of the best parts of being local.

I would give 10 stars if I could. I just had the 1/2 salad and soup lunch combo and it was delicious! The salad was so big I had to take some home. I asked to leave off the blue cheese and they offered 2 different cheeses as a replacement. I took home a piece of lemon cake and it was CRAZY delicious! Service was beyond wonderful, the place is so comfy.

Starbucks and Panera have absolutely nothing on this great little gem of a coffee shop...except higher prices. Store is always clean, staff members are awesome, food and drink quality is excellent, and the prices are very reasonable. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by Common Grounds.

Such a great coffee nook. Delicious vanilla latte. Attached to the church. Very kind customer service. Great for breakfast, coffee and lunch. So glad we stopped in! This is the CLEANEST coffee shop I’ve ever been to. Immaculate, bathrooms, counters, flooring, tables, coffee bar, etc. Very impressed.

Great people. I had the salad and a coffee. Salad was very fresh and tasty. The coffee was great. They even let us stay a little after close so we could do a zoom meeting with a nursing home.

This cafe is a must-visit for York County. They create high quality drinks, their craft their food from scratch, and their prices are phenomenal. I entered curious, and I left feeling like a peach. It's that perfect combination of small town love, memorable coffee, and an owner who will bend over backwards to make customers happy. Attached to my review is everything I purchased today. Four tins of tea was $13.00, and, I got two teabags to sample for free. This is a special sale that runs every quarter. They also host high tea events, where 100% of everything is made from scratch. I ordered a Banana Pumpkin Latte, and was pleasantly surprised. A medium size costed me $3.19. The owner loved telling me about the drink's creation, and the ingredients Common Ground uses for the other menu options. Some may not find this type of information helpful. However, if I am putting my money towards a business, I like knowing the history and process behind something I purchase. The Farmhouse salad costed around $6.50. It was the same size as a $10.00 salad from a restaurant. Again, everything was made from scratch and it was fresh. Saving money = a happy me. Small companies need our help right now. I encourage anyone to try out Common Grounds. It's worth the drive. Sincerely, A Really Picky Person

We stop by for lunch again. The high schoolers wait staff are the cuties!! We stopped after an hour walk this morning. Good coffee, Chai tea latte and breakfast sandwiches. Great price. We will be back again.
