    At the front door...

    The. Coffee is good; the smoking area IS AT THE FRONT DOOR. Talk about ambience, OMG. Disgusting... Employees smoke at the front door. Customers are greeted by an exit thru second hand smoke. Some people don't think. They must not need the business.

    A cozy coffee shop in the beautiful town of Saint Michael's MD. From standard iced coffee and lattes, to hand-crafted pour overs and French presses, coffee lovers will surely find something they enjoy. Not to mention the hot chocolate was amazing! Highly recommend.

    The coffee was delicious. So was the ice tea. And the super friendly service and the overall vibe means I will definitely be coming back. Great way to start the day!

    First thing, the people that work here are super awesome. Even though we were just passing through we felt like we were part of the community. Very rarely have I walked into a place and felt like I was part of it already. The coffee was also extremely good. I had the Donnie Darko and must say it was one of the smoothest dark roasts I have ever had. You can honestly taste the quality that comes from being roasted on location. I will be back I hope as I am hopefully getting into sailing and hope that it will bring me back to this gem of a coffee house.

    Holy Christ, I needed a cuppa (I'm not from England but they don't have a trademark on it) one morning. Saw a bright blue sign as I was on walkabout (I'm not from Austria* either) that said BLUE HERON COFFEE. Now, I don't mess with Herons, one bit me when I was a boychik (you get the idea), but I do get down with the JitterJuice™ Walked in to the comfy establishment and was immediately hit with THAT SMELL...Oooh, that smell, can't you smell that smell! (Shouts to Skynard #RIPRVZ) The eye candy behind the stick was a solid reassurance that I walked into the correct place. Spotting the roaster was my second clue, Col. Mustard. I ask the questions; he answered the questions** AS for the goods, I like worm dirt and the EC behind the counter hooked me up with his darkest roast, Donny Darko. Holy Christ 2: Electric Morning Brew! This. Is. Why. I. Drink. Coffee. Perfect cup of Joe. The flavors were amazing. the freshness was incredible. Tears are starting to form as I write this just remembering the first drop as it hit my lips. It was like watching the movie Rudy for the 1st time...no joke. TL:DR Great place to enjoy a superb cup of coffee. *Please notice my amazing joke about Austria/Australia ** Please notice my amazing usage of the semi-colon.

    Came here with my girl friends while staying in the area and it quickly became our favorite place. Not only is the coffee the best I've ever had, the staff makes the experience. They are so efficient and friendly and you can tell they love what they are doing. We had a large group with a lot of orders and they made us feel so welcome. Could not recommend a place more, we are sad to be leaving!!

    This was a cute coffee shop on the Eastern Shore. Why really stood out to me is the fact that the barista offered us samples before we decided on any coffee. I don't know if that is common, but I have never had that happen and it was a nice touch, in that I could find what I really wanted. The other cool thing is that everything here was locally sourced. I don't know if a lot of people are like me, but whenever I can find something local that I can't get somewhere else, that's an added 10 points. Should also mention that the coffee wasn't bad! (And the tea is home brewed as well if you are feeling that!)

My go-to, however, is Amity! Unique to Amity are their single-origin beans roasted fresh in-house! The coffee and food are delicious! The drink and food menu is ample and offers a great variety of choices, including gluten-free treats and vegetarian foods. Best part - everything is made fresh in-house! Put these menu items on your must-try list: 1) Chocolate chip cookies - I've been on a hunt for the best chocolate chip cookie and Amity's is high up on the list 2) Cafe Nico - delicious hot or cold coffee made with fresh orange citrus zest 3) Hot ham and cheese sandwich and the quiches! Very good! 4) A scone with coffee/tea is always my go-to! Amity boasts a cozy place for the community to come together, for friends to catch-up over coffee, and for small businesses to meet and network together. The venue can also be rented out for private events! You can trust Amity with its clean eatery, a cozy and welcoming atmosphere for the entire family, great hospitality, and an overall good experience. If the husband & wife-owners are working, make sure you say hello. They are super friendly and would love to welcome you to their shop.

You step inside seeing one half is a living room sit down area, then the other half is both charming, quaint coffee house mixed with an open view of the roasting operation. When entering, I came during a slow period before the rush came shortly thereafter around 9:30am. Not only were staff friendly with me during the slow time, knowledgeable to point me in the direction for coffee, and efficient making the coffee; they were equally the same energy when it became busy. I had both the cold brew (black) and the pictured: Fruit Loop Latte - both were good in their own right and can't go wrong. I'd definitely recommend Little Goat Coffee to all would be travelers and locals alike. Locals pointed me here, so I'll continue to spread the good word and point others here too.
