Higher Grounds Coffee Shoppe
201 New Market Centre #10, Boone, NC
Crema's Take
“Higher Grounds is a beloved neighborhood fixture in Boone where consistency and genuine hospitality shine through—regulars rave about their reliably excellent espresso drinks and the personal touch owners Matt and Gloria bring to every visit. Whether you're settling in with a laptop for the afternoon or stopping by for their signature caramel drink, you'll find a locally-owned spot that takes real care in crafting their coffee and treating customers like friends.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.
