The Daily Grind Gourmet Coffee & Tea

About Us

The Daily Grind has been a cherished part of the Marshfield community since 1990, originally opened by Bill Gratzek with the vision of bringing a touch of antique charm and originality back to the neighborhood. For more than three decades, the café has remained a local favorite—a place where people gather for breakfast, great coffee, good conversation, and a sense of connection. In October 2022, the tradition was passed to its new owner, Eric, who proudly carries forward the spirit of the shop while expanding its offerings for today’s guests.

Under Eric’s direction, The Daily Grind has grown into a full-service café serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, desserts, and an ever-expanding menu of hot, cold, and frozen beverages. While the menu has evolved, the heart of the shop remains the same. The Daily Grind is still best known for the originality of its savory, unique, and antique-inspired coffee flavors—signature creations that simply can’t be found anywhere else. Alongside their specialty coffees and premium teas, the café also serves homemade soup, daily specials, and all-day favorites made with comfort in mind.

Open six days a week, The Daily Grind offers a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with plenty of seating, free Wi-Fi, and a space designed for lingering. Guests are encouraged to relax, mingle, get work done, or simply enjoy a warm meal in a place that feels like home. Fast, quality service and genuine hospitality are at the core of everything they do—because at The Daily Grind, every visit should feel like coming back to your favorite spot in town.

Really cozy atmosphere (my favorite bit bring a sign that says something like "Real friends don't let friends drink Starbucks"), and their pancakes are great! Good coffee drink

The Daily Grind Gourmet Coffee & Tea is such a cute coffee shop with a ton of charm! From the moment you walk in, the vintage coffee and tea canisters lining the space give it a comforting, homey feel that makes you want to sit and stay awhile. The coffee was absolutely delicious—smooth, rich, and exactly what you hope for in a local spot. The scones were just as impressive, fresh and full of flavor, pairing perfectly with our drinks. This is definitely a place we’ll be back to explore more of the menu. If you’re looking for a cozy atmosphere and quality coffee, this one’s worth the stop! ☕✨
