The food is wonderful! On Google Maps it is still listed as Common Ground. Since Melissa took over, it has been called The Cake Shack. The space is cosy but there is outdoor seating for warmer days or you have your dog with you.

I called in her as I was in the process of moving back into the village, and the cafe is fairly new. I love tea shop I was the only customer in there. The menu offers exotic sounding hot chocolates from fair flung climes and you can have plain, milk or white chocolate. Impressive. I ordered the milk chocolate and a (I think) lemon poppyseed cake. The chocolate was Luke warm and didn’t really taste of anything but milk. Certainly not of chocolate . I asked if it could be heated up. I was told, tersely, it is supposed to be like that. I am fairly well travelled and it’s the first I’ve heard that “hot” chocolate is anything but ! The cake was dry and I ended up leaving without drinking the chocolate or eating the all cake .

Terribly overpriced for average fare. Owners and staff should pay a trip to nearby Blackwells to see how good village community fare excels. Will not be returning.

Went for coffee and got an excellent cup. Tough to resist the cake offerings, so I gave in. And it was worth it. Friendly staff and cosy atmosphere.

Eigentlich wollten wir nur schnell etwas kleines essen. Nachdem aber anscheinend nicht mehr viel da war (was grundsätzlich kein Problem ist) wurden uns die restlichen Snacks hinter der Theke angeboten. Unser Blick viel sofort auf den Käse mit Schimmelflecken drauf... Wenn Snacks in der Theke schon dort Schimmel aufweisen, wer weiss was dann noch alles kommt. Nein danke! Bereinigt sowas! Davon kann man krank werden!

My visit to Common Ground was unexpected as my car was in for repair work next door. I had never visited before and was met by an extremely lovely lady called sam, who made my coffee exactly as i wanted it and served and extremely tasty bacon sandwich. I ordered another excellent coffee as i enjoyed the first so much and bought some ground coffee for my own machine to take away. Excellent ambience and found out that they also host tapas evenings which i will attend and will report back at a later date. For now, i would recommend this to anyone.

Enjoyable tapas style meal on a Friday night. Very relaxed, small cafe style restaurant. Just right as a local place to eat with friends and neighbours.

This delightful coffeeshop by day, tapas bar by night delivered on its hype. The Mediterranean themed food along with house made Sangria were a delightful combination. Pleasantly surprised- good atmosphere looking forward to whats next!

Indignado en este café vi hormigas en el suelo y me dijeron que el personal y no hacer nada, así que nos cambiamos las mesas. Vi niños detrás de la zona de bar que sirve alcohol tarde en la noche, estaban más probable es de menos de 18 años mientras que venden. El gerente Sam gritó y fue un cliente utilizando el lenguaje horrible y molesta a otros clientes. Realmente molestos por la experiencia, nunca volvería:

Back in 2016 I paid for a tea party for my wedding that unfortunately I had to cancel. I explain to the owner that I was going to have to ask for my money back. At the time I was told I wouldn't have to worry about paying a cancellation fee. After texting once a month wondering what was happing I was told the owner was waiting to sell her car? This was seriously confusing to me. After waiting 6 months with no serious intention of paying. I explained I would have to take this to small claims court as I needed payment. I revived abuses messages from her and her husband. And was paid just over half back and was told I would never receive the rest. I truly don't understand how you can get away with not paying someone. I feel robbed. I would recommend never using them for any catering service. Everything I saw was bought from bookers or Costco not very homemade.

Well what a find! Me and a couple of friends were looking for a quick fix before a night out and I can say Common Ground Tapas Night was the right thing for us! They've recently just started this Tapas night and they've hit the nail on the head perfectly, with great food which was quick out of the kitchen and great service from the hosts and excellent value for money I would highly recommend this for anyone who fancies a night out from the kids or anything like that! The owners Sam & Paul have done an amazing job at making this village somewhere to go to for food and drink for good value for money!

Habíamos disfrutado de este lugar un tiempo ahora, encontrándose por casualidad en nuestro camino a casa a través de Chipperfield. Teníamos un trozo de pastel de terciopelo rojo y tazas de té. Así que decidimos hacer un pequeño desvío para hoy disfrutar de té y pasteles una segunda vez. Posiblemente no porque era a las 3.30 de un sábado por la tarde, realmente era mucho donde elegir en el departamento de tarta, pero teníamos la libre de gluten torta de zanahoria, que era delicioso. La única cosa que me decepcionó fue el más tibio de bienvenida y servicio que recibimos de la pareja de jóvenes a cargo... El joven parecía estar más interesado en llenar los tarros de mermelada, y el bean señorita parecía bastante amarga daba, y tuvo que ser pedido para limpiar la mesa de migas y para suministrar el agua de cortesía vasos que estaba sobre la mesa. (Solo por eso, una estrella atracado...).

Maravilloso té de la tarde para el cumpleaños de mi abuela. No se podía pedir más! Luz para un generoso regalo; scones deliciosos sándwiches y, recepción amable y cálido. El espacio era un poco estrecho, pero había doce de nosotros, así que es comprensible. Se hizo todo lo posible para asegurarse de que estuviéramos cómodos, incluyendo una advertencia sobre una mesa fractionally inferior que fue muy apreciado. Sam era un gran anfitrión y se merece todo el éxito que tiene con la tierra común.

Como un bebedor de té, conseguir una buena taza de café en una cafetería es normalmente un desafío (grandes cadenas tome nota!) Sin embargo, había una taza de té encantadora y delicioso sándwich, muy fresco. * Para los amantes del café; el café fue completada dos veces mientras estaba sentado allí. Muy amable con la gente y claramente toda la parte integrante de la comunidad.

Soy el adicto al café y me encanta mi café, es difícil encontrar un lugar donde el café es fantástico y el personal es servicial, pero puedo decir honestamente que Common Ground en Chipperfield ciertamente cumplía todos los requisitos como una casa de café. No sólo venden café hacen fantástica comida fresca. Tienen todo el recinto que reliquias hace que te sientas como en casa! Negocios con gran gran café!!!

Esta es una pequeña joya que me he pasado a menudo, pero nunca fuimos. Yo no sabía lo que me perdía! Francamente té y café (ambos excelentes) son ridículamente barato; tarta de manzana y remolacha (excelente). Paninis y panecillos de desayuno y bocadillos también están disponibles; si el pastel es para algo, que será estupenda. Common Ground es minúsculo y cinco mesas, pero si estás en cualquier lugar cerca de Chipperfield asegúrate de ellos una visita. No te arrepentirás.

Yo y mis colegas de ciclismo fuimos aquí esta mañana, después de una paseo super húmedo y es sin duda la mejor cafetería que he ido. El personal era muy amable y servicial y el café era excelente. Gracias a el brillo de ciclismo y la leña en calorías que ofrece, pude probar las deliciosas mini bollos de canela (2 accidentalmente cayó en la boca). También tuve el chocolate y la zanahoria pastel que sinceramente es sin duda la mejor tarta que he tenido en mi vida. Si tienen este pastel en tienes que tener.

Tomar un café, tentadores aperitivos desde pastas a las tres de la tarde a las 10 de la noche. A los niños les encanta, Babychinos (Capuchinos para los niños) y bolas son su favorito. Dirigido por personas encantadoras que conocen el café - siempre hay una nueva asado o haba diferente para probar, siempre una charla.

Wanted to leave a review of the St Albans excellent taproom from the brewery. Being a bit of a novice beer drinker i needed a bit of guidance on what and how much of each drink I should have ( one of the recommendations was a 9.7% stout that is apparently best drank in thirds if you can manage it!) by the wonderful team member Marcus behind the bar. A brilliant afternoon’s experience that I would really recommend if you’re looking for something local and a bit different.

Have eaten at most restaurants / pubs in Berkhamsted but decided to have Sunday lunch at the Bull for a change of venue. The lunch was of excellent quality. well presented and hot. Service was unpretentious, friendly and slick with no accompanying blaring music which allowed conversation to take place. Well worth a try for other residents of the town who are used to eating more centrally. You will not be disappointed with the menu and choices for those with dietary restrictions
