New convenience store featuring Starbucks Serenade now open in UGL

A new convenience store, The Grind, is now open inside the Undergraduate Library (UGL), providing a convenient place for students who need a caffeine boost or a snack. The campus community is invited to attend a grand opening celebration Oct. 4.

The Grind features a Starbucks Serenade, which will be the first of its kind in Michigan and will use a one-touch system to brew coffee to order. The store will sell a variety of other drinks and snacks, perfect for any study session in the library.

The café’s name was chosen with the help of Wayne State’s Student Senate. WSU graphic design student Eva Smith designed The Grind’s logo and color palette.

The Grind will be open Sunday through Thursday from noon to 10 p.m., and it is located on the first floor of the UGL just past Bernath Auditorium.
