The Giddy Goat Coffee Roasters

We visit the location at least once a week. The coffee quality is one of the best in Charlotte. My kids love the muffins and empanadas. We make it a family stop on the weekends. The space is very inviting and has outdoor terrace to relax. The staff is very friendly and always greet you with a smile.

My husband and I went to the Giddy Goat for the first time this morning and had such a great experience. The owner was extremely personable, made a delicious coffee, and even checked to make sure it tasted how I wanted it. He mentioned they have a lounge upstairs that will be serving wine, we will definitely be checking that out. 100% would recommend stopping here for a coffee in Plaza. The environment is relaxed and I would imagine would be a nice place to work from. We will absolutely be coming back!

Great spot! Cozy, good coffee and delicious burritos & empanadas.

Everything is great, just one thing..

I love coming to this coffee shop so much. The food is great, the atmosphere is wonderful and obviously the coffee is fantastic. With all that being said, if you plan to order more than one food item, be prepared. We ordered 4 empanadas and each time we’ve watched many customers with 1 food order go by and waited 15 minutes for ours. This isn’t the first time it’s happened but having to remind the barista what we ordered makes me rethink coming here for food. Even though the food is great too, sometimes finishing your drink before the food is done can be tedious.

giddy goat is the best coffee shop ever! coffee is amazing but what really keeps me coming back is the food. the empanadas and burritos are amazing but the baked goods are the best part of all!!! the muffins, scones, bites, and different breads are all incredible and baked to perfection. so delicious and lots of dairy free / vegan options which we love to see!

(UPDATED REVIEW: See end!)Stopped at Giddy Goat as the last coffee shop we would try on our weekend in Charlotte.
Enjoying good coffee is my favorite past time. My wife and I plan our vacations around coffee spots we want to hit. Our weekend in Charlotte was no different.
In our 3 days in Charlotte we tried 5 different local shops. Giddy Goat was by far our favorite for many different reasons.
First, the customer service and speed of service were top notch! Everyone was kind and even on a slammed Sunday afternoon, we received our drinks and food very quickly.
Second, the location was exceptional. Giddy Goat has nice indoor and outdoor seating and the vibe was the best of all of the shops we visited.
Third, the food was absolutely out of this world! We tried burritos and empanadas and both were phenomenal!
Fourth, the prices were great, especially on the food. Most coffee shops that serve food offer a small selection of items and those items are outrageously expensive (and often not tasty). That is not the case here!
Fifth, the coffee was great! Giddy Goat is roasting their own coffee and doing a great job! The coffee was not over roasted and the quality of the beans were great. Additionally, the quality of the drinks they produced were equally as great!

All in all, Giddy Goat was not even on our radar when we arrived in Charlotte, however it is now in our top 10 list of favorite shops we’ve ever been to!

Great job Giddy Goat! Keep up the great work!

(My wife and I had to come to Charlotte for a meeting a few weekends ago. We decided to turn it into a weekend and hit some of Charlottes coffee and food offerings. My wife and I love coffee and plan our vacations around trying all of the local spots. So, in prepping to come to Charlotte, we asked our friends about which places we should hit. All in all we hit 6 places in 2 days. On our final day in Charlotte I had happened upon Giddy Goat in driving to another shop and had come across it in my Google researching. It looked promising but wasn’t on our original list. We made the decision to stop on our way out and we were so glad that we did! Not only did Giddy Goat have the best drinks we tried but they also had the best food and the coolest space!

From each vacation my wife and I take we purchase a coffee mug from our favorite shop to bring back with us. These mugs are memories that provide conversation points for those who drink coffee in our home. They also serve as sweet reminders of experiences we have had together. So, we purchased a mug from Giddy Goat. However, upon arriving home, the mug fell out of the top of our luggage and shattered on the floor! We were devastated. As this was the only thing we brought back from Charlotte. However, we reached out (slid into the DMs) to Giddy Goat and got in touch with Savannah, their social media manager! Savannah was so kind and even agreed to ship us another mug! Giddy Goat, thank you for the great coffee and great food! However, thank you more for being kind and understanding humans! That mug will rest in the front of our display and be one of the first ones that we hand guests so this story can be told over and over for years to come!)

Giddy goat is my favorite coffee shop in Plaza Midwood. Great atmosphere, cool people, and friendly environment. Love their coffee and one day I will get up there early enough to try their breakfast. They told me I had to come in before 10 because they only make so many orders of their breakfast and they sell out quickly.

Highly recommend it. Cozy atmosphere. I am a coffee lover and their coffee is the best I have ever tried so far. Really good quality and taste. They roast coffee beans inside the shop so you can smell the coffee all over the shop. Customer service is amazing. Carson is one of the owners and he is an awesome guy. His service dog is really friendly, too. Tip: get early to try their burritos. I went in the morning and I had the chance to try them but they go out really fast. They even make them the same morning they sell them. My favorite is the Shaka! They have not even opened yet and they are killing it. Good job.

Employees are always friendly & the coffee is so delicious that I order two drinks since one isn’t enough for me. LoL! The establishment is also a great one. There’s both outdoor & indoor seating which gives customers options while working or relaxing in the coffee shop.

Probably one of the best coffee shops in the charlotte area. Big, quiet, and chill. Coffee refills are free too. However, the parking is quite small but that is not really in thier control.
