Attention to detail, this local cafe is a must go to. Beautifully landscaped, Formerly the Provender, Groundswell is my new favorite coffee shop/bakery in town.. The staff is super friendly and the food and pastries are delicious! Outdoor dining is available and directly across the street is their groundswell garden shop, which is a cozy atmosphere, home goods type shop, along with the new Table and provisions store right next to the cafe.
