Higher Grounds Coffee House

Higher Grounds Coffee House is a community-focused coffee shop located at 23776 Lake Drive in Crestline, CA, owned and operated by First Baptist Church of Crestline since 2017. The shop — converted from a former gas station that previously operated as Lake Gregory Coffee Company — serves carefully sourced single-origin coffee, pastries, and sandwiches, and hosts regular community events including open mic nights, game nights, and local artist showcases. Beyond coffee, Higher Grounds has demonstrated deep community commitment, including assisting with food and supply distribution during local emergencies, while also serving as a gathering space for Rotary, Lions Club, and Chamber of Commerce meetings.
