Amazing coffee and we very much appreciated the message about Gaza. You are on the right side of history as time will show

I’m not a bit coffee drinker but my husband enjoyed his vanilla latte. My kid and I ordered the hot chocolate it was delicious, better than what most coffee shops offer. The staff was very kind and helpful, they welcomed us and our kids in with big smiles. We picked up some authentic Palestinian olive oil and Zafar by Canaan which was a pleasant surprise.

Kid-friendliness: They had some colored pencils and paper available which kept our children entertained while we enjoyed our drinks.

Iced almond milk latte and matcha latte were both fantastic! We are snobs about matcha and espresso and Higher Grounds delivered. They make the almond milk in house! And nothing was pre-sweetened, which we prefer. They added maple to the matcha, a perfect addition. When you visit here make sure to walk the trails next door as well

I genuinely appreciate the quality of the coffee and the knowledge the staff has about what they're doing. This is my first stop whenever I'm in Traverse City because I know they'll make a flawless extra dry cappuccino every time.

An LGBTQ flag in the window while supporting Palestine at the same time is pretty bad. I don't see how a business can support both of these when one hates the other. Yes, it's illegal to be gay in Palestine. Show your support and make good coffee, that's all your business should do.

Please go back to using Califia oat milkThe new oat milk does not taste as good, is watery, and leaves a chalky aftertaste

Went here a couple times during a trip, it was good not great. I had a cortado on my first visit, the espresso leans a little too dark for my liking and the foam wasn’t perfect. On my second visit I got an iced latte which was much better for my palate, I also got an oatmeal cookie which was very, very good. The atmosphere is pretty rustic, there’s a patio outside and limited seating inside

Coffee was amazing! Staff was pretty nice, atmosphere was a little disappointing. As soon as you walk in it had stop genocide written on the windows, and then as well as inside the building.

Didn’t care for the coffee. Neat little neighborhood though!

The cold brew was awful, I only had three sips and I had to throw it out.
