WELCOME TO OUR SHOP!
Our names are Kyle & Katrina Reinhard and we would like to personally invite you to come to Common Grounds Café and Pie Shop! We love meeting new people and catching up with old friends, a perfect opportunity to find a leather chair in front of the fireplace and chat over a coffee and a slice of pie.
Since opening in 2017, we have enjoyed the opportunity to serve our community and those passing by. We welcome you to stop in and be treated to some home-town hospitality!
