Crema's Take
“Higher Grounds has baristas who genuinely engage with each customer—one reviewer raved that they "actually LISTEN to you and what you want"—which explains why locals stop here every morning despite occasional drive-thru waits. The breakfast sandwiches and protein shakes are solid alongside the espresso drinks, and you'll find the prices reasonable for a specialty shop that also welcomes dogs and families.”
What to expect

My dad and I stopped here at 9am on a Monday. The barista was there by herself, and there was a decent line. She got the cars out quickly, I was impressed. I ordered an iced latte, and my dad got a breakfast sandwich. She had me pull around to the side and she brought the food…
Super friendly baristas! Wish they would have a menu before the drive thru window (or maybe we just missed it), but otherwise it was a wonderful experience. We got the toasted marshmallow coconut latte and a strawberry banana smoothie. Both VERY good. Super cute little coffee…
