Nestled in Mt. Martha, this charming café is a local favorite, celebrated for its exceptional coffee and inviting atmosphere. Patrons rave about the quality of the breakfast menu, featuring delightful options like fried eggs on sourdough and unique dishes that showcase creativity and flavor. While many commend the friendly service, experiences vary, with some noting a decline in staff attentiveness and hygiene standards. The café's design enhances the overall experience, making it a cozy spot to enjoy a meal. For those seeking a vibrant, coffee-centric destination, John's is undeniably worth a visit.

Was Anonym at Higher Ground a mag?
I have visited this restaurant twice and it is small but full of atmosphere! Parking is available behind the Mt Martha shops and it is easily accessible from the carport. The service is great and the food is excellent, I would give both a rating of 5. The atmosphere is also top-notch. There are plenty of parking spaces available for free. View all feedback.

What Anonym dislikes about Higher Ground:
really good coffee, but unfortunately the service leaves us every time. the personal ignores/avoids customers when they run through the door, and would prefer to go on their phones as if needed. I have dimmed in many times, but probably it will not be View all feedback.

If you're in MM and in need of delicious coffee, look no further than John's. The chocolate brownies are also amazing, as are the croque monsieurs if you're looking for a breakfast option.

There is muesli available as a vegan choice at this restaurant, but it would be nice to see more options on the menu.

The best coffee on the peninsula without a doubt. They also offer a nice variety of lunch options. I highly recommend this place for a quick coffee or a sit-down meal.
