I'm always searching for local coffee shops over the ubiquitous Starbucks or Dutch Bros. Traveling…read moreup to Salem the other day was no different. Of course, I turned to Yelp for options since I'm not too familiar with the area and found Higher Ground, which was conveniently located about a mile from my sister's house (our final destination). The location is a bit odd, as you'll find it set back in a parking lot at the base of a large church--now I get the name, punny! Quick, friendly service and really reasonable pricing. I ordered 4 espresso drinks (one with a milk alternative) and the total cost was only $14!! And besides being well priced, they were well-made.

Great little coffee cafe! (Best in NE Salem). If you're looking for your Starbucks alternative,…read morethis is it. It is much nicer, quieter, and cosier. There is soft-seating around the gas fireplace, plus conventional seating throughout. The the visual ambience of art and soft music is just right to get the day started. Plus plenty of outlets for your electronic devices. The only draw backs are that they're only open 7am - 11am, Monday through Thursday, and hard to locate as it shares space with the People's Church. There is a TV above the fireplace, which I'm happy to say is turned off. If you're looking for a quieter place for your morning coffee this is it. It's definitely one place I'll be coming back to!

This was our third visit, and our first time trying the tacos, which were solid and came out fast. We've ordered the Raspberry Cheesecake Matcha, Iced mazapán coffee, & Strawberry Matcha Horchata. As someone who's neurodivergent, consistency really matters to me when it comes to flavor--and this place absolutely nails it. Every single visit, the drinks have tasted exactly the same in the best way. No random switch-ups like you sometimes get at bigger chains (you know the ones ). On top of that, the workers are genuinely so sweet, and it just feels good supporting a local business that clearly cares about what they're serving. When the food is good, the drinks are consistent, and the people are kind, it makes supporting the business feel easyy and we'll definitely keep coming back. :)

For someone who hardly drinks coffee (less than 5 times my entire life), this visit to Starbucks…read moreleft me very impressed. I was running off 4 hours of sleep & was on my way to Portland to work at the COVID Vaccine Clinic at OCC. It was 4am and of course this location was open (A BONUS! Most opened at 0500-0530). I mentioned to the barista that I hardly drink coffee, but there were 3 drinks I was interested in (from what I looked up on google). I couldn't decide between the 3 and was looking for something on the sweeter side; yet, had caffeine. Out of the 3 drinks, she recommended Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Brew which I originally had asked for the smallest size possible (knowing my tolerance for caffeine was likely very low). I get to the drive-up window and her & another barista had mentioned that they were giving me a significantly larger size in case I ended up liking what she recommended! I was VERY happy with her recommendation and it kept me running for about 12 hours. Thank you for your amazing service. I wish I had gotten their names. I will definitely remember their faces the next time I visit again.

Environment: Fairly spacious interior. You'll see the long order corner up front and the restrooms on the side; a code is needed to enter. We placed our order at the counter and had a wait before our drinks were ready. We ordered 3 drinks but only 2 of them came out. Not sure how, but they somehow lost our order for the 3rd drink. And we had to flag one of the employees down to ask about it. What was ordered: - Nitro Cold Brew - Matcha Tea Latte Yay/Nay/Meh: Meh. The place was nice and clean but the wait was long, and they lost one of our drink orders. Credit cards are accepted.

The food is clearly the best I've had in a long time. The spices are so rich and flavorful. Half the menu is vegan/vegetarian and the other half has meat options. If you want to sample a bit of everything they have a delicious platter. The braised beef is melt in your mouth tender and so good! 10 out of 10.
