Well done Elliot for creating such a warm and welcoming office space! This is the perfect place for anyone running their own business or working from home who wants to experience an office environment again. There is always a great mix of people working here, and always someone to grab a coffee and a chat in the kitchen with. It's central location makes it ideal for popping out at lunchtime and Royston has a great range of eateries and sandwich shops. The soundproofed booths are ideal for private online work meetings and in the office itself there is a lovely blend of quiet time to get your head down, interspersed with occasional chats with other workers. I really enjoy using this facility as it breaks the week up and I always feel welcome and comfortable. Highly recommended!!

Ended up here by accident after a train had to terminate at Royston. Common Grind was an absolute life saver, and Elliot could not have been kinder or more helpful. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, modern space with character and laid-back yet respectful hosts. I would also recommend it to anyone looking for a backup if their train is delayed, though I'll be sure to come back again even if not!

I find a trip to Common Grind for the day really helps break up the monotony of home working and focuses the mind. Elliot is a great host, the other users are all really friendly and the environment is positive. And Elliot's coffees are great! I thoroughly recommend this valuable Royston co-working space.

Elliott provides a friendly and great working environment with strong Wi-Fi, a pleasant office set-up, Quiet phone-booths and of course decent coffee. We are able to work fully within the office area and enhances the service we can provide to all our worldwide clients without exception. A godsend for sure and at a decent rate ....why wouldn't you want to use it!? Dave & Mitch Sanctuary ICS

Common Grind has been an absolute godsend for me. I live in a particularly rural area (which is great most of the time) but when I need to get out of the house and be in civilisation, Common Grind is exactly what I need. It’s a quiet space where I can get my head down and write as well as being able to pop into town (you’re on top of everything Royston has to offer) and get the odd errand run. Elliot is fantastic, too, even being able to buzz you in when he’s in another country! He’s warm and friendly, and because it’s his working space too, he understands that you’re there to work, too. The building has great facilities, too. Nice kitchen, great vibe, and the architectural details are beautiful.
