The Grind is Garrett's own coffee house — famous for flights of four full-size drinks, cozy exposed brick, and baristas who treat your order like it matters. Now pouring in Fort Wayne, too.
The story so far
The Grind opened in 2019 as a hidden gem in downtown Garrett, building a following one Instagram-worthy flight at a time. A custom mobile espresso bar joined in 2021 — and in February 2026, The Grind did something small towns dream about: it opened in Glenbrook Square, in a space a Starbucks left behind.
From the board
Espresso classics, over-the-top seasonal creations, boba, smoothies, colorful energy drinks — and New York-style bagels to go with them.
Four full-size drinks — mix espresso, cold brew and seasonal specials. The signature.
Blackberry Crumble, Reese's cold brew, brown sugar shaken espresso — the fan favorites.
Maui Wowie, Cotton Candy Dreams and friends — plus boba teas and fruit smoothies.
Rainbow, jalapeño, red pepper, French toast — plain or built into a breakfast sandwich.
