Accessibility Features
At our Café, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to succeed—and that starts with having the right tools. We provide accessible equipment and adaptive tools designed to support people of all abilities, including color-coded measuring sets, easy-grip utensils, and height-adjustable workstations. Our recipe books are thoughtfully designed with visual step-by-step instructions, large print, and simplified language to ensure they’re easy to follow for all learning styles. By removing barriers and creating a supportive environment, we empower every team member to gain confidence, build skills, and thrive in the kitchen.
Accessible Seating
At Grounded Café, we believe comfort and community go hand in hand. That’s why our space is thoughtfully designed with accessibility in mind. You’ll find tables and chairs at varying heights and styles, creating options that work for everyone. Whether you use a wheelchair, prefer a booth, or simply need a little extra space, our goal is to make sure every guest feels welcome, included, and at home. Every option was chosen with thought and care, because at Grounded, we believe everyone deserves a seat at the table.
Pictured above are our wheelchair-accessible booths, designed with an open side and no fixed seat so that wheelchairs can easily roll in and sit right at the table—no barriers, just connection.
We offer taller chairs with supportive seating, perfect for guests who may find it easier to sit and stand from a higher position. These are pictured above. We have green and orange ones.
Pictured above are our easy slide-in chairs make getting in and out of your seat simple and smooth, offering comfort without hassle.

Accessibile Kitchen Features
Stoves
At Grounded Café, our stoves are designed with safety and efficiency in mind! They only heat up when the correct pots and pans are used—so if it’s not the right cookware, the burners stay off. Plus, they cool down quickly after cooking, helping keep our kitchen safe and energy smart while we prepare your favorite meals.
Height-Adjustable Workstations
At Grounded Café, everyone can find their perfect fit! Our height-adjustable workstations make it easy for team members to work comfortably—whether standing, seated, or using a wheelchair. They’re especially helpful for those with back concerns or limited mobility, ensuring every person can contribute with ease and confidence.
Handwashing Sink
Our automatic handwashing sink helps keep things clean and accessible for everyone! With touch-free sensors, it limits contact points for better hygiene, and its accessible height ensures ease of use for individuals who use wheelchairs. It’s one more way we make Grounded Café a safe and welcoming space for all.
Espresso Machine
Our espresso machines keep things brewing smoothly at Grounded Café! They automatically grind our beans for fresh flavor in every cup—no extra steps needed. With simple, easy-to-use buttons, they help our team save time and stay focused on what matters most: serving up great coffee with a smile.
