High Grounds Coffee Roasters is an innovative, rustic coffee roastery located in Glassboro Town Square, New Jersey, adjacent to Rowan Boulevard. Founded by Charles Garrity, the brand distinguishes itself through the use of on-site fluid-bed roasting technology, which utilizes a heated air stream to ensure consistent, clean-tasting roasts by removing chaff during the process. The café serves as a social hub for the local community and university students, offering an extensive menu of creative, dessert-inspired specialty lattes, coffee flights, and all-day brunch. With a commitment to freshness and an immersive sensory experience, the brand has expanded its footprint in New Jersey, including the establishment of the High Grounds Lounge in Carneys Point.
