More Than a Coffee Shop — We're Chelsea's Living Room.

Ground Up Coffee and Smoothies started with a simple idea: Chelsea deserved a place where the coffee is always fresh, the smoothies are made the way you like them, and the people behind the counter actually know your name.

Located right on Highway 280, we've become a neighborhood staple — a stop for commuters grabbing their morning fuel, families settling in for weekend brunch, and friends catching up over a blended drink. Everything we serve is made from scratch in small batches, because we believe good food and drink shouldn't be rushed.

Open Early, Closed Late Perfect for any schedule
