Higher ground is an awesome hang out spot. Things I love about HG:
Open late
Cozy cabin atmosphere
Noise levels are relatively low so you can have conversations with the person across from you
Great lattes, even better teas
**Free internet** although I connect wifi through starbucks
Chill counter service
Good food, great price and good portions
Massive cork board at the back with lots of community events notices
Easily a regular hang out spot, plus there's plenty of parking in the area.
