Delicious coffee, delicious food. I try to come in whenever I can and I just love the service! Kind staff, and I strongly recommend this place next time you’re in the mood for a cup of coffee.

Ten minutes for breakfast on the go is a bit long, but the Southern Burrito is worth the wait. And the house blend coffee is solid.

We called in a lunch order thinking by time we got there it may be ready within 15 minutes, when we got there we were told it would be out soon. We waited 20 minutes and decided to ask about our order due to having to return to work, we were then told they had other orders in front and may take additional 15 minutes. If you have alot of time try this location but if you want an order to go think twice about ordering.

I had some pancakes with Canadian bacon, hash browns and sausages. The hash browns was bland. It just did not have enough salt. The sausages were too greasy. The Canadian bacon was OK. The pancakes were really thin and tasty. I also had Cappuchino, which, I thought, was just not strong at all. The staff working at that Café are very friendly.

We love going to Higher Grounds for breakfast. The coffee is always great and I love the variety of coffee drinks they offer. Most important, it is never too sweet — my German palate isn’t used to the American standard level of sweetness :)
My favorite dish to order are the grits, and that’s where the one star less comes from. The first time I ordered them they came in a cup with a fried egg on top (sunny side up as I prefer) and a side of butter (grits already are buttery) so I could stir that in and get one step closer to cardiovascular disease. Second time unfortunately the egg was over easy (I don’t like that too much and they didn’t ask how I wanted the eggs) and no extra butter. Third time I got asked how I wanted my egg, and it came just as I love it, but no extra butter again. I added hot sauce instead (several brands are offered for free) and absolutely got that going for me though! The last two times the seasoning of the grits also was so-​so, but I can fix that myself thanks to the salt and pepper and sauces you can grab yourself. So the only reason I take a star off is that the quality of the dishes I ordered wasn’t always the same high level. All in all this place is awesome though. The staff is very friendly, the atmosphere is homely, and the food is great. I can absolutely recommend it.

Expected coffee and was surprised to find they serve breakfast. The Frenchman breakfast sandwich was really good and coffee was super tasty.

Great food! I love going here for breakfast & lunch. The prices are a little up there, but the quality is also great. The employees are super nice. The music however is variable in that sometimes it’s a good volume to talk/​work & other times it’s so loud you can’t hear. Coffee is good & the frozen drinks are really good! Overall it’s a great place! 4 stars just cause the music is hit or miss on volume which can make it hard to hang out.

This place is small and cozy. When you walk in you don’t expect them to serve food except for your topical muffins and bengals like every other coffee shop. They have a huge menu with delicious breakfast and lunch options. I ordered their egg white panini so good. Not to mention the price is right too. I seen a lady order the citrus salad it looked amazing. Service was good, not the best but not worst. they did their job what else can I ask for. Deff will be going back to try that salad :)

Staff is always very nice and courteous every time we’ve been here; they have happy hour on blended drinks which are our favorite since they have a variety of flavors. Coffee is very good, the purple eye will keep you awake for days haha. We like that they also have a pretty good size breakfast and lunch menu too, we haven’t had anything from the lunch menu yet but everything we’ve had from the breakfast menu has been really good. This is definitely our favorite coffee shop!

Great place for morning cup of joe and breakfast. House blend is bold with hints of chocolate. Plenty of drink options.
Breakfast menu is fairly large and high quality.
One of my favorite breakfast/​coffee joints.

Gist: I’m not a coffee snob by any means but this is a solid place to get some smooth coffee
Headed over there for some early morning Joe. It’s a sweet little place furnished in that neo modern furniture style with plenty of tables to study at. I got a mocha and it was perfectly balanced smooth and sweet. My cousin got coffee there earlier and loved it as well. I didn’t get breakfast over there but they had a huge array of breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches and platters; I will need to hit that next time because it sounds scrumptious.

In house roasting!
Dog friendly!
Terrific staff!
Fast service!
What more can a coffee lover ask for?
A favorite caffeine stop, especially something iced on a warm afternoon!
Cheers!

Working on this side of town and not familar with the area. Couldnt find a Starbucks, not that I was looking hard. I typically stay away from small coffee places like this, mainly because their menu choices are half the wall written on large chalk boards. Just like here! To many choices, my ADD wont allow me to process anything and make a choice.
I’m sure there are tons of great drinks just not sure where to begin. I grabbed an Americano from here because thats my drink at Starbucks.
This drink blew the doors off SBs hands down. The beans you can actually taste the flavor of the roast.
WELL DONE HG!
I hope I will be back on this side of town sometime soon, ill venture outside my comfy zone and try something new, im sure I won’t be disappointed.

This is my husband and my favorite spot to stop for coffee before taking our dog on his Sunday morning walk around Discovery Park. There are many coffee flavoring options (flavored syrups, creamer /​milk /​soy /​almond /​coconut milk) to choose from and they don’t up charge for every single thing like they do at the bigger coffee chains.
There are usually three roasts (rotating each week we are there) to choose from. Or you can go iced which is my fav once it gets hot outside. We haven’t tried their food but their baked goods look delicious and there are always people in there eating breakfast.
We recently discovered they had a quaint little back patio (dog friendly as is the smaller front patio) and are looking forward to finally getting around to eating breakfast there soon!
Side note — our new «thing» is picking up a bag of whole beans while we are there for making our own coffee at home. They rotate roast types every time we are there so it never gets boring ;)

The food was good. Eggs were delicious. Oatmeal was also really good. The hash browns were only okay, but not bad. A little oily. Coffee is strong. The baristas were nice but very young and a little green. They had just opened, so maybe they were just tired. :)

Not really sure what sets this place apart. I love coffee, so when I find smaller coffee shops there should be a reason I chose them over any other place. I’m looking for really good coffee, or really good food, etc.
While their coffee menu has things like Café Au Lait, I don’t think it’s anything special. Even though I don’t think places like Starbucks are really good, at least you know what you’re getting every time.
When I left this place, I couldn’t think of a reason I would go back except for it might be right down the street from where you live.

This coffee shop is located in Gilbert AZ. It boasts the perfect mix of rustic and industrial décor. For non-​dairy consumers they offer a variety of nut based milks as well as hemp milk.
This coffee shop also offers a large food menu. Their breakfast is awesome. You’d definitely wan to give them a try!

I was really excited to try this place but was disappointed once I finally did.
We ordered the old fashioned oatmeal and french toast with a side of fruit. All around the food was just «OK”– the side of fruit was a few blueberries, two graphed, and a cup of musk melon. If I came again, I would skip food here all together.
I ordered a butternut squash mango smoothie, which they were out of so I followed up with an iced Almond flavored Latte – I was brought what looked like a curdled milk latte and took it back and was later informed it was made with almond milk instead of almond flavor and it was made again. The correct latte I received was super bitter, as if the shots sat for too long before being poured in.
My husband had a hot latte with sugar syrup and was happy with it. Maybe I’m more picky as a former barista of 3.5 years.
All in all, we won’t be back. It may have just been today’s staff, but I’d rather explore other places.

Very simple yet very good Local Coffee Shop. The people here are so friendly and willing to listen to immediate feedback.
For me, it’s convenient, fast, and tastes good. Its like going over to close friends house… The regular coffee is consistently good…
Breakfast sandwiches, the burrito, and the french toast are so good! and if you want a special order, well they do that too.
Wishing this local shop great success

Did not get any food here, though it does sound good, but I did like the chai I got. This place has lots of options, and some unique ones as well which I thought was cool.
I like the feel of HG. It is a small, cute place. A nice little coffee shop. I ordered a chai with almond milk. It was good. A lot of places only have cow’s milk or soy milk and I do not like either of those, so was excited to see they were one of the more rare places that have almond milk as an option.
Would be interested in coming back here for breakfast!
