Friends who are in the know recommended this place to us for brunch. It really proved to be an absolute hidden gem of South Canberra. Staff is friendly and very competent making you feel relaxed in this upbeat and bustling with energy place. Despite it being quite busy our coffees were ready within minutes. Great blend, good temperature and just the right strength for an amazing start to the day. The breakfast/lunch menu is interesting and with plenty of delicious options. You can't go wrong with whatever you decide on. We had eggs benedict with smoked salmon, zucchini fritters and the Buddha Bowl. All dishes came out looking beautiful, fresh, crisp with a wonderful combination of flavours. Hands down!!! We will be back soon to catch some of that Canberra winter sun at your outdoor area. Thank you!

I have been a regular customer for breakfast at Common Grounds they have a great variety in the menu to cater for lots of people but my favourite is the french toast it is a must have, sooo delicious and very filling! The service has been quick and staff very friendly. Highly recommend you pay them a visit!

The food is good and they kindly gave me a big discount because the food I ordered was out.
However, I wasn’t impressed by the service at all. It was quite busy and all tables were full when we arrived. So we had to snatch a table ourselves (as they have outside tables on both side of the building it was difficult). The waiting people did not offer any help on seating. When a waitress brought our food my friend asked her nicely if she could also bring us cutlery, she said”yes I’ll bring them right after because I don’t have five hands.” I hope this is just her frustration from having shortage of staff.

Had the Brekkie Bruschetta; and added hash brown, mushroom and Bacon for an extra $10. The meal in itself was filling hits the spot! The sourdough bruschetta toast was crunchy adequately dressed with pesto served with nicely poached egg; there was variety of textures throughout the dish, Good balance of flavours complemented by the additional add-ons as it was already lunch time then. We've also ordered the Bacon and Egg roll, the milk bun was soft and fluffy and the tasty cheese made it more flavourful. Added wilted spinach and hashbrown for extra $6. We also had a flat white which was served quick and hot, good crema and appreciate the coffee art. Very good cup of coffee. (I guess would have been better served on a larger mug?) The starburst was nice and sour had more noticeable watermelon notes.. all up a refreshing beverage. The staff were really nice and friendly which made the experience even better on a really cold Sunday morning. Great job, Common Grounds, thanks heaps for the great food and hospitality!

Common Grounds Gowrie is worth the drive south. We stopped in for breakfast and tried the Conquistador and the Zucchini Fritters, was well as the special of the day - waffles. All three breakfast dishes were delicious. The serving sizes and generous, the staff are fast and friendly and the coffee is nice and strong - just how we like it. It's pretty popular, especially on a weekend, but well worth the wait (if you have to).

Cute little cafe with a decent looking menu. The big breakfast was pretty tasty, but not the best I've ever had. Similar with the coffee. The gluten free brownie though.. So much dense and delicious and nom!

A great little place that is much closer than driving out all the way to the city, but with the same ambience and great vibe from friendly staff and the design of the place. The suburban location makes the cafe convenient for a catch up with friends, but I would recommend weekdays since weekends can often get quite busy. 

The coffee is great here and the food is affordable and tasty, the only downside would be that if you sit out at the patio it is hard to get noticed to make your order, but the staff are extremely polite and do look rather busy

Simply excellent Campos coffee is a great start to this little treasure of a cafe tucked away in an otherwise unremarkable suburban shopping centre. Superb burgers and sandwiches, gorgeous cakes and pastries make for a local gem.

Had breakfast here and was pleasantly surprised by the prompt service, the quality of the food and coffee

Ordered the 'Conquistador' and loved the combination of cherry tomatoes, chorizo, basil, goats cheese and perfectly poached egg. The portition size was generous and reasonably priced.

Would definitely recommend and return :)

Common Grounds is a treasure trove of fresh, seasonal, delicious food and exceptional coffee. While the menu is varied and a delight, the specials are a must try, with their beauty only surpassed by their flavor. The service is cheerful and polite.
If I have to find anything negative to say it would be that due to the popularity of Common Grounds you may wait for your meal a little longer sometimes, but it is well and truly worth a short delay.

Nice little Cafe, plenty of parking, indoor and outdoor seating. Very busy when we visited but staff were coping well and were very friendly. Coffee came out quickly, Campos beans, great flavour and just the right temperature. Food was delicious and well presented. The bacon and egg roll was great, the bacon was a highlight. Colombian hash was excellent pork was tasty and there was just enough chilli heat to make it interesting.

4 2/1 stars. Had a lovley breakfast today in the back of this little place....only reason for the lack of star No 5 was no acidity in the hollandaise sauce (I love lemon but that's just me, need a bit to cut through the richness) BUT 5* to chef for actually making his own sauce... 9/10 places these days use packet and its horrible!. And for this....chef, we will see you again :)

My family and I come here come here every Sunday for breakfast and always have a great time. The French toast is the best in Canberra in my opinion.

Always super busy. Try to book. The food and coffee was yum. The waiter did serve people who arrived well after us before us though, but otherwise was good.
