“This location is very fun but the coffee is nothing to write home about. Great little spot off the green belt to pop in and grab a drink or snack. The building is two story with an interesting little seating spot up stairs. They share work from local artists which is neat!“

“Well I must have walked 2 miles in the mid to late morning walking through through probably three of the biggest parks in Boise. My last stop today ( because it was getting hot and my health issues would not be a good setting for me. I was wanting something cold to cool me down like maybe a cold beer but one’s I needed something different. So I looked for some places because I understand there were small restaurants and bars there. Well I found this place and they make healthy slushees and they had a tropical one and I knew that was what I needed. The young lady was so very nice and I asked for her first name, and she said it’s Pain, she was not kidding.“

“Decided to step out of my comfort zone today and go to Grindz Coffee Shop. They aren't really in my area but I wanted to try something new. Google did mess up on directions but I figured it out. The parking situation isn't the best. I did end up finding a spot a little ways down. But can I tell you, this coffee joint is in it's own little town. It's a hidden gem amongst all this new development next to the river. I bet it's been around for a couple years but I have never been in these neck of the woods before. This area is just stunning! I love all the gentrifying they are doing in Garden City! Walking up to the shop, you see the beautiful river next to it. You also see patrons enjoying themselves and their beverages out in the summer weather. It's a good sign when there's people around chillin. I was instantly greeted by a handsome face as soon as I walked in. We had a small conversation but what I appreciate most about the conversation was that it was genuine. Not your basic, generic small talk. You can tell he was asking about my plans cause he was was engaged, not asking just to ask. The gal at the register helped me get my order taken care of. She too was very sweet. I forgot my personal debit card and needed to transfer money to my business card. She didn't rush me or make me feel like I was taking up too much time. I ended up just using my business card but it was nice of her to be so patient with me. My drink was amazing. I got a 16 oz iced americano with sugar free hazelnut with room for cream. The espresso, hazelnut and cream was all balanced, not one ingredientover shawdowed the other. It was prepared perfectly! The coffee is on the pricier side but they are pushing out a great product. To me, it was worth the price. Behind this joint is the river. Talk about a view! It couldn't have been more perfect! Enjoying my coffee with the nice flowing underneath me. It was the most magical setting. I can't say anything but great things about this joint. Ya, the parking sucks and it's pricey but the location, customer service and the product makes up for it! Happy I checked this place out. Looking forward to more drinks from this joint and walks by the river this summer.“

“We are always looking for a quick and protein packed breakfast with great coffee. So stoked to see this spot open on the Greenbelt. The food is great, the coffee is amazing, and the energy is awesome. This will definitely be our go to spot when we are in the area for a mobile detail!“

“This is an OK place, it’s pretty generic, I’ve been here a few times went on the Greenbelt. I haven’t eaten, but I’ve gotten a few of their specialty drinks and an Americano. I’m always astounded at the prices. The coffee is mediocre, but it’s $5 (before expected tip) for a 12 ounce Americano, any of their specialty drinks are at least $10. I get things are expensive, but $5 for two shots of espresso is pretty crazy especially when it’s not great coffee. Push and pour (around the corner) is a much better experience, better coffee and feels more authentic.“
