The lane we were directed into was not clearly marked, and by that point we were already stuck in line with no easy way to switch. I explained that we had already been waiting and that the confusion was due to unclear signage, but the staff refused to take our order, saying it would disrupt their queue. Rather than helping resolve the situation, they simply turned us away. The interaction was rude and unhelpful, so we chose to leave without ordering.

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!

They are very big with cookie butter lattes so I've been craving one and every time I would type on Yelp cookie butter I felt like there was no reviews on any spot that had this so I decided I would just go to chubby bean and checked it out and when I saw it on the menu, I literally gasped!

What's up: We needed a coffee break before continuing on our road trip and this Starbucks was along…read moreour way. Parking: Decent parking lot. We didn't have any issues getting a spot. 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.

I was disappointed today at this location, the guy at the drive through looked like new at this. He…read moredidn't offer a holding device to place my reusable cup, then he gave me one of my drinks with the wrong lid and he changed it himself (usually the partner who prepares the drinks is the one who changes the lid), then he poured my 2nd drink right there on the window in front of me and splashed the frapuchino then I have to remind him of the whipped cream I ordered. Terrible service, I won't return to this location.
