Menteng Tennis Club By Common Gounds Terra
Inspired by the laid-back vibe of Palm Springs and its country club scene, every corner of the new space channels the growing love for tennis. You’ll notice earthy terracotta tones that nod to the red clay courts popular in Latin America, and the hallway doubles as a gallery, showing off vintage racquets and photos of legends like Roger Federer. There’s even a wall-to-wall cabinet made from hundreds of tennis balls in the locker room, which feels more like a lounge than your average gym change room. Further along, you’ll find the tennis court itself, where players of all levels can be seen putting their skills to the test through the glass windows and doors. Early risers might catch hobbyists in crisp polos and sneakers going head-to-head before kicking off their workday. Later in the day, you’ll spot casual players enjoying a leisurely game, with some light banter in between shots. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just picking up the sport, the two-hour sessions that start at 6 AM are sure to work up an appetite.
When hunger strikes, the crowd-favourite is the Spaghetti with Cream Sauce. It’s packed with fresh mushrooms for a nice earthy kick, topped with chicken for that protein boost. Or, for a heartier option, you can’t go past Common Grounds’ version of Bangers and Mash. Smoky, house-made sausages sit on a bed of creamy mash, topped with crispy kale, sweet roasted peppers, and onions—comfort food done right. As for coffee, Common Grounds Terra has an exclusive released Major Tom Blend, just in time for the brand’s 10th anniversary. It’s a smooth mix of Colombian Aji Bourbon beans with Aceh’s Pantan Musara, bringing fruity and floral notes with a hint of bourbon. Perfect for a classic latte.
