Reviews of Grit Coffee, UVa Corner (Coffee Shop)

Alex C

If you are a local or just visiting-- Grit has the best coffee in town. They roast their own beans and put a lot of care into their drinks and food.

Marika Gutzman

Good coffee and iced tea, seating inside and outside. There's usually an available table even during peak hours.

Ahsun Jilani

Local coffee outfit that sources some very aromatic beans. I picked it over the Starbucks just down the street. It seems like a nice place to meet up.

Harry Holsinger

Liked the peach jam on Belgian waffle.

Peter Carey

Cool place

Tom W

Coffee is good, but their space is cramped, always feels crowded in there.

Dan Frosaker

Excellent iced coffee. Nice and relaxing in the summer.

Eric Anderson

Good coffee. Busy cafe atmosphere.

Barun Deep Singh

Hands down one of the best coffee houses in the city. The "hip" university town atmosphere along with some great beverages make this place a daily stop for me after classes. Their music selection is perfect. Oh and be sure to check if they're having any music event/open mics in the evening. Also, it's a little chilly outside, their hot chocolate would be the perfect thing for the moment.

Michael Daubert

Love this place, a must visit every time we go back to UVA and are on the corner.

Chris Kelm

Great atmosphere and deep selection of java for any enthusiast. Pastries can be on point. Service is usually exceptional

Varundev Suresh Babu

It's okay. Rude staff though.

Steve Evans, M.A.

Great coffee, hugely popular student hangout, though buried off the UVA Corner where parking is sketchy at best. Worth the walk if you're already roaming the Corner or nearby on Grounds.

Liked the ambience and friendly staff. Ordered a cappuccino and it was so different than any other Cappucino I had in town.

Nick Moyer

Chill spot to study. Apricot ginger scones are awesome

Great little coffee shop. Their grits are amazing. A definite place to go when visiting Charlottesvile.

A wonderful little coffee bar with a nice atmosphere and kind servers. Its not the best coffee in Charlottesville but the drinks are still really good and the location is very convenient for UVA students.

Halcyon Q

Best place to study on the weekends!

Matthew Anderson

Decent coffee, but horrible service. Got my order completely wrong (literally every single thing I ordered was made incorrectly) last time I went in there. Also, DO NOT GET THEIR SMOOTHIES; they are more syrupy than those you get at fast food restaurants...

Brianna Cabrera

Great study/social space and great coffee.

Lauren Marks

Love y’all

Great atmosphere, friendly baristas, tasty drinks and lots of seating options.

Christian Dahlhausen

Better than Starbucks around the corner

Shea Zwerver

Main St. location: Their small plate of "black bean hummus" is literally just a teacup of warmed black beans. I received warmed black beans and a handful of tortilla chips for $6.00.

Jasmine Cha

I love Para. It was one of my favorite places to study and to meet people when I went to UVA. The coffee is amazing and reasonably priced. The white russian and the honey bear were my favorites. Overall, it's a cute small business that plays fantastic music and is a great study location.

Katie Stanonik

Great atmosphere, great drinks and pastries

Charles Beans

Yummy

Lenny Li

Nice ambience and a great place to get work done.

Jennifer C

This coffee shop is a nice alternative to Starbucks. The staff is quite friendly and there is ample seating both upstairs and outside.

Christopher Lam

Best morning spot on the Corner

Peter Lorenzoni

A little gem of a coffee shop thanks to the wonderful people who work there. It's a peaceful spot on the end of the road with a nice shaded awning running the length of the building. There are two nice decks, a quiet space upstairs. This summer a vegetable garden took shape, adding to the serenity of the place. An added bonus is the CSX trains that pass by a few times a day and Amtrak heading out to West Virginia.

Travis Hite

Great coffee and service, but also importantly is they have space for hanging out, having a meeting, and getting a little work done. Love this place!

Hannah Lewis

Adorable coffee shop, very hip staff, some of the best drip coffee in cville

Brian Kelley

Sandee Booth

Great little coffee shop. The barista was super friendly, the latte was wonderful & the brioche was delicious!

Michael Morris

Come do your homework here. The coffee is great and there's two floors of tables.

Brad Costella

Awesome coffee, friendly baristas and a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Been going here for close to a decade and have never had a bad experience. Great place to study, but get there super early during midterms/exams and don't give up your seat if you get one!

Michelle Molina

Super coffee and I really love the Jasmine tea here. It's a cute spot to hang out or do homework.
