The coffee is so inconsistent--and there seems to be an impulse there to save on resources. I ordered a shake there once that was almost all milk and no ice cream. Another time, I ordered a hot cocoa, and the person behind the counter made it with WATER rather than milk! WTF? I hate to say anything negative about Highland because it's such a great hangout spot... But they have to fix coffee. It's the foundation of the business. I love this place, but Jen’s right.

It is TOO sunny. It's hard to find a spot where I can clearly read my laptop screen in the morning. It'd be nice if they added some awnings. I have one minor problem with this place. It is TOO sunny.
