Higher Grounds Coffee House - Crestline

Leah and chad are very friendly and offer wonderful service. this was our third time here and everything we had is great. our favorites are the icy hard milk latte the ham cheese puff pastries the breakfast sandwich. another gast said her chocolate paste was the bomb. next time we get the definitiw.

Great little spot with a nice outdoor seating area. Also probably the highest quality coffee in the Lake Arrowhead area. They brew Arcade coffee.And the pour overs are really reasonably priced, and they’re also large 16 Oz coffees!

Love love love Higher Grounds! Great coffee and unlike some coffee places you can get great eats. They separately foil the bagel sandwiches c’mon that is taking an extra step that I didn’t count on from anyone anywhere. Great customer service. Shout out to Chad and Leah!!

After our hike, we decided to stop by this restaurant, and we’re so glad we did! My sister ordered the blueberry dish, which was absolutely delicious—perfectly sweet. I went for an iced vanilla latte with milk, and it was also great. It was smooth, not overly sweet, and I really enjoyed the flavor of the coffee they used. We also tried their ham and cheese, which was loaded with seasoned bagels, and I was completely obsessed with it! I would definitely come back.

Great potential, good coffee. dreadful service, unfortunate employees (also rude, I would say) that is a mess and not well maintained and honestly put a bit dangerous at some. either the entrepreneurs are not present enough or not business enthusiasts. I would guess a combination of it. in the years they would have been here, I would have expected more improvements, instead it is just down and slow service. unfortunately this was probably our last visit here. 10 minutes to get a simple drip coffee, 30 full minutes for a bagel with egg and cheese. and it was really not that busy. I understand, good help is hard to find and high schoolers need a first job, but a well paid, experienced barista would just have the work of all 4 employees present.
