✨ AMAZING
I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with this locally-owned shop. They care deeply about the community and everyone is knowledgeable, friendly and inclusive. It has been a long time coming for them to complete their transformation from just a humble vibing coffee-spot into a fully-stocked retail shop and seeing them successfully operational today is such a treat. 10/10 would pay no attention to negative reviews ✌🏼

100/5 would recommend
Such an awesome first experience!! First, the shop is so vibey I could kick it there all day. Second, and more importantly, everyone was so welcoming and wicked nice. My bud tender (I wanna say was Jackson)? Was incredible. They helped point me to some solid sativas, Inca Gold and Unicorn Piss, and were a blast to chat with. Run don’t walk to Higher Grounds. Unless it’s icy. Then maybe don’t run.

High Times, Higher Grounds!
Higher Grounds was wonderful to deal with! I ordered via Weedmaps, and was actually their first order via the online service! They were a little busy, but the staff was attentive and caring. Everyone has a first day doing something, and they made it look like a lot of fun, with smiling faces everywhere(yes, they were wearing masks, but it was apparent they were enjoying what they do). To boot, their coffee was pretty great! The only critique I have is the place needs a better flow, and waiting area, if the coffee and dispensary get really busy at the same time. Minor details. Overall, awesome experience, all the products were wonderful, fresh, and potent. Will be back! Keep up the great work Higher grounds!!! :)

Safe space, knowledgeable staff
I felt nervous going to buy medical cannabis for the first time, and the staff at Higher Grounds immediately put me at ease. They gave me great recommendations, and I’ve since recommended them to friends and family. You won’t regret checking them out!

Nice Shop, Great Location, Very Friendly.
Nice Shop in Old Port. Really nice guy working there. Super helpful and they have Paul's flower without the hassle of traveling to Windham. I can't emphasize how friendly the guy is. Also, best coffee I've ever had as a bonus.

Introduction
Welcome to the Higher Grounds of cannabis and coffee! We believe that commerce is advocacy, and that cannabis commerce is inherently political. Maine is a special place, and our cannabis programs are some of its most precious assets. When you support your local growers you are supporting the very fabric of our state. We not only seek the highest quality and most effective cannabis--we also seek out those who share these values and represent them every day. Let's show the world that cannabis isn't just a 'consumer packaged good': it can and should be a means of DOING good.
As founding members of the Maine Craft Cannabis Association, we fight for the right to access high quality, affordable cannabis from the cultivators and curators of your choice. Our menu wouldn't be possible without that fight, and that fight isn't possible without your support. Come find us in Portland, and find your own higher grounds!
