Such a gem! The staff are so sweet, the service is quick, and while the space is small, they do have indoor seating which is a nice bonus. The vibe is really good, cozy, welcoming, and the baristas are genuinely friendly, making you feel like a regular even if it’s your first visit. The pastry case is filled with tons of tempting bakery items, and it’s hard not to grab one every time you stop in.
Drinks I Tried:
Snickerdoodle Chai (Hot): Sweet but not too sweet — perfect if you want that fresh-baked cookie flavor without the calories of an actual cookie. The warmth really sells the “fresh from the oven” vibe.
Iced Cold Brew: Amazing value! The medium (24 oz) is only $4, and they don’t overfill it with ice, so you actually get a full cup of coffee. The large (30 oz) is just $5 — which is wild when you think about paying more than that for a tall at Starbucks and getting way less coffee.
Overall, Higher Grounds has great drinks, a cozy vibe, and baristas that make the experience even better. Whether you’re stopping in for a quick coffee or sitting down for a few minutes, it’s absolutely worth the visit.

Maybe an odd location, but this sweet little coffee shop is a gem!
Great coffee and in house made baked goods as well as a full menu! I had an Americano (if they make a good Americano, any of their coffee drinks are sure to please) and it was great! I also tried the GF Carrot Cake and it was delicious!
The service is great and with a smile!

Decent coffee shop with lots of hearty breakfast options and pastries. We got the toast man sandwich and a cinnamon muffin, both were decent. I know inflation is a thing now, but there’s a part of me that still struggles to purchase a “just-okay” $12 breakfast sandwich.
Lattes were decent as well with some pour over coffee options. Perhaps we were there on a day they happened to be short, but we had to wait a bit to put our order in on a Sunday morning with just one other couple ahead of us. So maybe don’t go if you’re in a rush. Having said that the baristas are kind and will make an effort to give you a positive experience.
There is some seating, but the ambiance is less for hanging out all day and more for grabbing your coffee and breakfast before heading out for the day.

Such a wonderful place! We source our coffee beans from here for our coffee shop. Highly recommend.

I wouldn’t order the Frenchman again. $10, and worse then a sandwich from Wendy’s. The eggs must be cartoon, the bacon must be pre cooked. It came out fast, but too fast.
A lot of places overcharge for poor quality, this just one just finally got me to post about it. I tried to eat it, and pick out the good parts, added salt, but it just wasn’t good, especially at that price. Idk, try it for yourself I guess.

A great neighborhood – kind of coffee shop. Worth the drive even if you’re a couple/few miles away.
I get the iced mocha and it’s a generous pour and extremely good.
With my morning cigar, all is right with the world.

They were so very kind, delicious hot chocolate made to perfection. I had a chocolate chip muffin that was just delicious!!! Recommend it!!! Super cute place!
Edit: ps- I’m back for their delicious sandwiches! Made to order they have a few options! The one pictured below comes with bacon too if I am not mistaken, which I asked to skip. Seating outside was a delight with this weather. The sandwiches are fresh and big enough to share!! Yum!!!!

I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to visit this coffee shop! It is tucked in the parking lot across from one of my favorite Sprouts, a little cozy hidden gem. The shop vibe is industrial meets rustic with a high wooden bar, exposed piping, reclaimed wood, etc.
They have a nice little menu with breakfast, bakery, coffee, and tea items, with lunch items starting at 11:00 (according to their website).
I tried the Sunrise avocado flatbread, which had smashed avocado, arugula, tomatoes, and medium cooked eggs on a flatbread. It was delicious! The flatbread had a wonderful texture, like a crispy tortilla (but a little thicker) with a chewy center. The prices for everything were very fair.
I had only 2 misgivings with our visit. First, I ordered a blueberry muffin, and they heated it up for me, which was nice. However, it had a strong “freezer burn” taste. I don’t know if they are bake and then frozen or freshly baked, but either the muffin itself or the batter was rather stale (in taste, not in texture). It’s possible that having it heated up accentuated that flavor, but either way – we did not finish the muffin. After a few bites, I couldn’t stomach the strong freezer taste. My other small and admittedly very personal complaint was the sugar free syrup. I worked as a barista for a few years, so this is only a guess – but I believe they use a different brand for their sugar free vanilla syrup. They have a wall full of Monin syrups, which are some of the best! But the sugar free vanilla in my latte tasted a lot like Torani, which is much worse in my opinion. I could be completely wrong about this, and again, it’s just a personal preference on taste, but I wasn’t a huge fan of the SF vanilla syrup. I would probably just go with a plain latte next time.
Overall, we were very happy with our visit! I will definitely be back to try more breakfast items, although I will be avoiding the baked goods from now on.

Cute coffee shop with a great menu of pastries and food. Cappuccino is delicious – not too bitter, not too sweet. The cinnamon roll was delicious! A little too much cream cheese for my taste, but hey, I’d rather have too much than too little. Quick and friendly service. Perfect, cozy areas to enjoy a good book.

Tried HG roastery for the first time this morning. I got a Carmel macchiato and biscuits and gravy. My coffee was really good and the biscuits and gravy were pretty good. My husband got the steak breakfast burrito, that was really yummy! We also ordered traditional breakfast for my son, he seemed to enjoy it. My husband also had a white mocha, it was one of the best ones I’ve tried! We had a deal for a free pastry and opted for the cinnamon roll, it was so gooey and delicious!! I saw they make giant chocolate chip cookies, was very tempting! I liked the atmosphere, it was inviting and cozy. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Would love if they opened in one in North Mesa!
