Dancing Goats® Downtown Olympia

Lovely coffee shop. Great coffee, great breakfast foods and pastries from San Francisco street bakery. Lots of seating, comfy chairs, fireplace, WiFi. Great for reading, socializing, and caffeinating. Good stuff. Highly recommended.

This coffee shop is an Olympia Institution, as much a part of the fabric of the town as Art's Walk or the Farmer's Market. Great coffee (national award-winning roastery) and a cozy interior perfect for meetings with friends or for business. If you haven't been there, go.

The baristas here are very nice. It's awesome that they have vegan donuts. I like the open, yet cozy atmosphere. The coffee is fantastic too.

I got some lavender latte. It was super delicious and well-balanced. Staff was friendly. Vibe was on point.

Love coming here for a fresh bag of coffee you may see their coffee in other places but if you want it fresh then you come here because they will ensure you get a great cup of coffee.

This is my favorite coffee in Olympia, it is absolutely delicious! Most of the time the baristas are friendly and quick. The only negative mention is that the temperature is sometimes on the cool side.

Quality espresso and whole bean varieties roasted nearby, friendly staff, bright and airy ambience... Great spot.

Great place to sit and work for a while. Tons of space to sit and enjoy any one of their many fine coffee varieties! Reasonably priced and friendly staff.

I have been going for years and the service has been "on and off". I think the turn-over really affects the quality of the service of this cafe. However, my last interaction was, at best, disappointing.
Like always, I ordered a chocolate Cortado (2oz. of coffee and 2 oz. of milk) with a little bit of choc. To my surprise I had to pay more than $5 plus tip. To put it in perspective, a 12oz mocha is a little bit more than $4. In the beginning I thought it was a mistake and I mentioned something to the barista. Her response was vague with no solution and ending on "I'm just an employee". Then I talked to the Manager that I've known for years. His response was "Yes, I've noticed this before and I talked with the office so they could change this price, but they haven't done it yet." To what I answered "I don't think is fair that I'm drinking a 4oz drink and I'm paying almost the same amount as a 16oz Mocha, is there anything that could be done?" To what he repeated the same statement he previously did. Since my frustration was building up, I asked what would be a solution for the future, because obviously I won't be coming again if this is the most expensive coffee in town. He never answered to that question, but he gave me back the money for the extra chocolate.
Good coffee, yes. But the service has to improve qualitatively for me to come back. I left very disappointed. I would have given 0 starts, but as you probably know 1 is the minimum.

I love the atmosphere here. The area is large and open with warm colors of the chairs and tables. I think it has a cozy feeling whilst not feeling overly crowded.
Great place to do work
