Welcome to Higher Grounds Café — Where Coffee Meets Community

At Higher Grounds Café, we believe coffee is more than just a drink — it’s a moment, a memory, a connection. Nestled inside the historic Myers Park United Methodist Church on Queens Road, we’re more than a café — we’re a cozy gathering space for the community to slow down, connect, and enjoy the good things in life.

Whether you’re stopping in for your morning latte, meeting a friend over gelato, or discovering a new pastry that feels like home, you’ll find that Higher Grounds is designed to uplift your day — with style, flavor, and a warm smile.

We are proud to offer hand-crafted espresso drinks, signature seasonal pastries, dairy-free and gluten-free options, and a welcoming environment that reflects our values of joy, hospitality, and intention.

This space was created for you — the students, families, artists, pastors, dreamers, and doers — who make Charlotte such a vibrant place to live.

Come visit us. Sip something delicious. Stay a while.
