Welcome to Grounds for Thought!

Since 1989, Grounds for Thought has been a gathering place in the heart of Downtown Bowling Green. Where locals come to hang out, students come to study, and all those in between. 

​

Up front, we serve hand-roasted coffee, BG's Best for 35 years. As well as fresh pastries and a large selection of local bakery items -- including gluten free and vegan options.

​

In back, we house Northwest Ohio's largest used bookstore. With over 250,000 books, comics, records, and CD's, you are sure to find something for you.

 

Whether you're meeting a friend for coffee, settling into a quiet corner with a good book, or getting some work done on our free Wi-Fi, there is always a place for you at Grounds for Thought.
