We cycled here having two vouchers for coffee and a toastie. It's a cute cafe and the service was great. Coffee was also good. My partner wasn't fussed with the toastie being sprinkled with rock salt. It was quite salty. Indoor and outdoor seating with the latter, unfortunately, right on a roadway. Still, it wasn't super busy.

A Consistently Stellar Coffee Experience – 10/10 I’ve lived in this neighbourhood for four years and can’t believe it took me this long to find The Grove! From the moment I walked in, their coffee impressed me—every brew is crafted with precision, resulting in a clean, balanced cup that never disappoints. Whether I’m grabbing a quick morning pick-me-up or settling in for a leisurely catch-up, I know exactly what I’m going to get: top-notch beans, expertly prepared, time after time. The baristas clearly care about quality, and it shows in every sip. I’m officially hooked and can’t recommend The Grove enough. If you appreciate great coffee and flawless consistency, make your next stop here. 10/10!
