Meeting Grounds was opened in 2017 by two couples who were passionate about people + good coffee. It began in a historic downtown Shaunavon building that once served as both a bank and a sheriff’s office. In 2020, Meeting Grounds moved across the street to its current home within a side of the historic Shaunavon Plaza Theatre.
Since then, the coffeehouse has grown into more than just a place to grab your favourite drink it’s become a hub for gathering, creativity, and collaboration. Guests can enjoy fresh lunch options (prepared by the incredible local team at Harvest Eatery), delicious home-style baking from talented local bakers Haute Cakes and Ginger Fournier, and shop our thoughtfully curated boutique.
MG Boutique carries Canadian brands of clothing, Jellycat, home goods, zero-waste products, books, baby items + more. You’ll also find beautiful art pieces created by local artist Andrew Robertson and other local artisans displayed throughout the space.
In 2026, the owners proudly stepped into a new chapter by purchasing the historic Plaza Theatre, a beloved community gem that was family owned for generations. Now reopened, The Plaza is once again lighting up downtown Shaunavon with movies, live music, and special events, creating even more opportunities to gather, celebrate, and experience something special together.
