Cold-brew coffee on tap and a slew of specialty lattes are just part of what makes Ground Up Coffee such a special spot in the eyes of Prosper java junkies. The quaint local coffeehouse is also beloved for its relaxing vibe. Dark mocha-colored floors evoke the hue in a coffee cup, and a smattering of small tables and comfy chairs invite guests to sit and stay awhile.

When you stop by, order one of the house drip coffees or request a gourmet preparation, like the French press or pour-over method. You can also slurp down cold-brew coffee straight from the tap, or enjoy something sweeter like the lavender coconut latte or the salted chai. Add a baked good or another small bite to the mix for the full Ground Up Coffee experience.
