Review: Your Daily Grind
A coffee shop Your Daily Grind opens in downtown Menasha and it provides a Starbucks alternative.
Your Daily Grind creates excellent coffee drinks with a medium roast that even the most picky coffee drinkers enjoy. Being a Starbucks connoisseur, I was shocked at how much I enjoyed the White Chocolate Mocha compared with the famous coffee chain. Priced at exactly the same as Starbucks, the only negative thing about this coffee shop is the drive to Menasha. The White Chocolate Mocha had the perfect balance of rich coffee with sweet flavoring for a drink that does not overwhelm the taste buds. For non-coffee drinkers, the shop also has a variety of flavors of steamers, hot chocolate and smoothies.
Drinks aside, the baristas are friendly and outgoing and walk around to wipe off tables, even if it did not appear to be dirty. The drinks are served fast, and in Eco-Friendly cups, so while sipping on a guilty pleasure patrons feel like they are helping the environment. There is a small selection of baked goods available as well, and some lunch options that are unique options based on classic choices, such as a Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad Sandwich.
The atmosphere is extremely inviting, including a variety of different chairs and seating options. Your Daily Grind has large tables to accommodate meetings or events, as well as smaller tables or a bar area that is against a window overlooking downtown. Each table or booth is accompanied by a variety of small succulents as well as furry rocks, which provides an excellent source of entertainment while sitting and sipping coffee. Comfy seating options are also available and create a casual environment for conversing with friends. The theme can best be described as chic rustic with a touch of class.
Next time coffee fans crave a new location to fulfill coffee desires, I highly recommend Your Daily Grind. Your Daily grind is located at 204 Main St, Menasha.

The only negativet thing is the drive to Menasha? With all the good things to be found in Menasha, the drive here should be filled with joyful anticipation.
