Delicious coffee, very friendly service, and cool industrial-chic vibes! We came here at 10 am on a Sunday morning, and there was plenty of empty tables and chairs... By 10:30 am though, there were many more customers and all tables were taken. So come here by 10 am if you want to nab a table. The drinks I had here so far are: - Bluebell espresso soda - brisk, fruity, and refreshing. It has an intriguing complex blend of flavors (jasmine, blamango, coconut). Really unique! - Rose cardy latte (iced with little ice, oat milk) - delightfully sweet and refreshing. It was not too sweet and has light floral tones. Service was very friendly and quick. All the workers looked fairly young and hipster-cool and always had a smile for me! read more

Ambiance: 4 Food: 0 Service: 0 Price/Value: 1 $37+ for two iced lattes, smoked salmon toast, water and a "cinnabun" before tip. A busy, hip, modern co-working space with relaxed vibes and coffeehouse tunes. I hate Starbucks as much as the next ALX millennial stay-at-home dog mom DINK, but the ONE thing I applaud is 100% confirmation on whether the customer would like their pastry warmed. Why Del Ray and Old Town coffeeshops don't consistently ask this is a head scratcher. Of all my regular haunts, only Buzz's Bakery gets this right. With 5 folks behind the bar, I hope Hypergoat considers adding this simple inquiry to their spiel while ringing up pastry-ordering customers. read more

Hypergoat Coffee Roasters - Cold, stale "cinnabun" - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

I absolutely love this coffee shop for its unique lattes. As someone who embarks on coffee adventures weekly, this café stands out with its creative options, charming interior, and amazing baristas. However, I'm considering making this a less frequent stop because they no longer allow customization of their seasonal selections. I used to enjoy tailoring my drinks to explore new flavors and enhance my experience. While I understand their logic--similar to not altering a prix fixe menu--the ability to customize is something I value in a coffee shop, especially since I savor one select cup each day. The ambience is delightful, with a rustic modern vibe that makes it a decent spot to work if you can snag a table, though the wobbly chairs can be a bit distracting. They also offer a coworking space, which is nice if you need a rentable area, but it does feel somewhat corporate, reminiscent of a WeWork environment. Despite these positives, I can't give the shop a full five-star rating due to their policy against customizing specialty drinks. While I appreciate their desire to maintain the integrity of their unique creations, this decision takes away from the personal coffee experience I cherish. The joy of customizing a drink to my exact taste is something I miss dearly. In summary, while the coffee and atmosphere are top-notch, the lack of personalization and the slightly corporate/snobby feel of the coworking space are drawbacks. It's still a great place to visit for the flavors and the vibe, but I hope they reconsider allowing customization to enhance the overall experience. read more

This coffee shop had a lot of seating for remote workers/students and a lot of lights wood with plants. The coffee was very smooth and good, however it took longer than I would expect because it wasn't too busy. Staff was very friendly however, and the coffee was good. read more

WHY DIDN'T I COME HERE SOONER?! I just found my go-to favorite coffee shop in the area. The coffee is of superior quality and the interior is modern yet sophisticated and comforting. Great place to meet friends, study, go on a date, or even go solo and enjoy a drink with lovely Brazilian influenced snacks. The staff was kind and the service was quick for a Sunday morning. I tried their seasonal Rose Cardy (cardamom) latte which is right up my alley and flavor palette- it was amazing and again, the best latte I've had in the old town area (and I've tried many cafes here). Out of curiosity, I tried their light savory snack, pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread). It was light and chewy due to the tapioca flour and a nice savory item to accompany my sweet drink. I love everything about this place- the drinks, service, vibe, and more. I WILL be a regular here. Can't wait to come back! read more

One of my new fave coffee spots to get a drink and to get my beans. I love the feel of the place as well. Spacious to work or drink with a couple of friends. Service has always been very friendly and accomodating! I highly recommend coming to this spot! read more

Loved it ! Great baristas, I enjoyed discussing pour over receipes, they have a variety of beans. Probably one of the best pour overs I have had in DMV. Coming back here is a no brainer. I came during the end hour, so got a Togo but was totally worth coming during 5F. Next time I will come and cherish a world class pour over at the cafe. They are attached to some cowork facility too, so those are some lucky folks who have that membership. read more

Stopped here for breakfast while attending a convention in the area - such good vibes. Modern interior with colorful art to balance the dark woods and cement, simple layout, and super helpful and patient staff. Coffee and food as AMAZING. Best gingerbread latte of my life - no joke. Didn't taste cloying or overdone - perfect balance of flavor to the creaminess of the latte. The lavender honey latte was also no slouch, and paired very well with the lavender honey toast - neither of them fought for dominance. Absolutely recommend, and I can't wait to get into the bag of beans we got! Cant say I recommend driving in Alexandrea though. Drivers in the area are mean and don't pay attention to their own stop signs - drive safe! read more

Great coffee shop in Old Town, Alexandria. Close enough to King St that you can use the Metro, walk or take the free trolley. I had a cappuccino, it was perfectly done and the right balance of coffee and milk. I noticed some baked goods, but I didn't have any. Clean, friendly staff and a good number of tables, excellent to set up your computer or meet friends for a good cup of coffee. The space is next to a co-working space with a couple of phone booths, but only for their members. read more

Hypergoat Coffee Roasters - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

This is a coffee person's coffee shop. The vibe is good, the tables are comfortable and there are enough of them. There are also 'phone' booths' for people to go into a room with others to have privacy to work or whatever. The pastries looked pretty good, though I didn't have any; people enjoying them seemed happy. There is a great eclectic clientele here, fewer families than at the well known coffee shop on Mt Vernon. On a Sat morning there were a fair number of people with laptops and looking like they were working. But you come here for the coffee. They make it any way you want. Hypergoat roasts their own and they buy some uniquely interesting beans that you won't find in other places. I enjoyed a cappuccino and then had a pour over recommended by the person at the next table. I don't know its name, but it tasted a lot like tea. It was different and I really appreciated the chance to try something very new. I highly recommend this shop if you are serious about your coffee. Or, if you appreciate a well made cup brewed by people who know coffee. read more

Stopped by here to try their coffee. based on a facebook recommendation. The atmosphere is like a shared workspace type of setup, where people come with their laptops and do their work.They even have private phonebooth sections for members for privacy. As far as the coffee is concerned, they definitely did not disappoint - this has to be the smoothest coffee i've ever tasted in quite a while. They didn't have any sugar-free syrup options for lattes, so I just got a regular one with oat milk. Highly recommend! read more

An excellent place to chill and drink your favorite espresso beverage and snack on a very lazy Sunday afternoon despite how crowded this place can be and still got an empty table. The staff/baristas are quite capable in their customer service and product delivery. I got a large mocha and waffle ordered for here. They were both delicious and filling. No complaints here, and I look forward to my future visits to this local coffee stop. read more

Amazing coffee and great service! Pastries are delicious...whether they are served cold or warm. Toasts are tasty. The smoke salmon is my favorite. It's a hip space with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. As locals, this is our favorite coffee shop in Old Town. read more

This is a small little coffee shop in Alexandria. The atmosphere is very chill with very soft music playing in the background and people working on laptops. There is seating available both indoors and outside. They have some food and some pasties and the typical coffee offerings. I had my usual latte and it was very good. The milk was well textured and at a reasonably good temperature. The barista was able to pour some decent latte art in a good ceramic mug. The overall flavor was very mild. The beans appear to be more of a medium roast and so I wasn't expecting a harsh flavor. Overall, if you are in the area this is a solid choice to grab some coffee and chill. read more

Was super excited to come try this spot out but was disappointed by the vibes. Everyone who was working acted mad & while our latte art was beautiful, neither of our coffees was very hot. The flavor of the coffee was delightful though. (Also a random thought outside the coffee review- but there are so few goats that the branding of this place is very misleading for people who seek out funky places. It's just like 5 mini stuffed goats and nothing else. This is just a very modern little coffee spot with beige decor so don't get your goats hopes up!) read more

Plenty of seating, outside as well, great vibes all around. It's a bit pricy for the sizing but tastes fantastic. Had some unfiltered grounds which is a pet peeve of mine but nothing crazy. Can totally study or do work there. Definitely a must try in the Alexandria area. Coffee 8.9/10 Atmosphere 9.3/10. read more

Hypergoat has a trendy vibe. You can find some knowledgeable baristas and decent coffee. This place can become very crowded and people with laptops can take the tables quickly.

Really nice coffee shop, but does have somewhat limited seating. Service has been friendly, and relatively efficient given the pride they take in making quality beverages. Great daily selection of pour over coffee varieties, and the hoji chai tea is delicious with or without milk. Baked good selection isn't massive, but there are probably a half-dozen or so options, plus the menu items like avo toast. read more

Hypergoat Coffee Roasters - Flat white, cinnamon roll, and a little brazilian milk sweet (Brigadeiro?). - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Alexandria, Virginia

My friends and I were in Old Town this past Thursday afternoon and wanted to grab coffee from Hypergoat before they closed at 2 (!!). Fortunately, we were able to spend an hour at the cafe and enjoy the modern, warehouse-style interior with some plants hanging off the ceiling and plenty of natural lighting. Because of the nice interior, I bumped the review to a 4/5. The four of us each got different drinks and we only thought the iced americano was decent. The cortado I got had a stronger milk flavor than the espresso, which didn't have much noteworthy tasting notes to offer. The iced mocha tasted more like diluted chocolate milk. The shakerato had a strange sweet aftertaste that we didn't quite enjoy. Overall, the drinks we tried averaged out to a 3/5. Maybe the pour overs are the way to go for coffee at Hypergoat. They also have a variety of coffee beans that they roast in-house for sale. I'm open to give the coffee another shot if I'm in the area. read more

This place has good coffee and cinnamon buns, but they aren't very fast. I think they need to be more organized or have a better process in place. I liked when not a lot of people knew about it. Now it gets pretty crowded. A lot of people sit and work, the space is shared with a co working space. read more

We visited on a very busy Saturday morning! They were a little backed up so service was a bit slow, but the place was very energetic, very friendly staff, and the coffee was on point! Well done! read more

I explained how I liked my coffee and honestly he couldn't have done a better job and satisfying my taste buds ! read more

Honestly, I wanted to check out Hypergoat, because of their name - also, when you walk in, you're able to enjoy the small goat plushes as part of their decor, which are super adorable! Our first visit here was pretty good, as our drink orders were made well, and the pastry items that we received seemed to have been warmed properly and was tasty. Our next visit was super disappointing, as our drinks didn't taste the same, so you could tell there was a consistency issue. The pao de queijos, which had a nice chew and had a slight crisp, tasted gummy and cold. The almond croissant that we received was cold and wasn't even warmed up correctly; it also tasted dried out and kind of stale. The place itself is cute and cozy with limited seating; not sure if you could stay here to do work, because, you know, to be courteous of other patrons that may stop by, but it is located adjacent to a work space that you could join! Staff are pretty friendly and kind; I'm hoping it was just an off day, maybe? +cute goat plushes +friendly service +limited seating +limited street parking in the area read more

small coffee spot, some seating inside and out, great coffee. they've got a pour over menu that has 5+ varieties. The espresso is also awesome, some of the best I've had in the DMV and would return to this shop (and I don't leave the city for much). My only issue is they charge +$1 for alt milk in any drink (which in a cortado is what 2oz?) - make it make sense read more

Stopped by Hypergoat Coffee Roasters the other day, and it's definitely a decent spot if you're looking for good coffee and a unique place to hang out. I came to get some work done, and really enjoyed the space. The ambiance is a great mix of modern and rustic--think warm wood tones with a cool skylight above the phone booth areas! I grabbed a peppermint mocha latte with oatmilk; it was slightly sweet, but not overpowering. Prices are pretty reasonable, especially for the quality. The staff was super friendly, which always makes the experience better. One of the unique things about this place is that it's also a co-working space. Half of it is open to the café crowd on Saturdays, but otherwise, you need a membership to get in. If you're local and need a regular workspace with great coffee, it might be worth checking out. Overall, Hypergoat is a great little gem near Old Town Alexandria! read more

Each were pretty tasty read more

The coffee shop is relatively new and is nestled on a side street from King st in old town Alexandria. The decor is Nordic minimalist and the service is good. They have some indoor seating and outdoor seating and they share space with MMA gym and a co-working space. The service is friendly. I ordered an espresso but, the pull was too sour. Hopefully the baristas zero in on the espresso shot. I will try the cafe again. read more

This was my second visit to Hyper Goat Alexandria, and it's great to see how much they've grown since opening last year! They've added some delicious baked goods and expanded their tea menu, which is a nice touch. I tried their spring special drink--it was tasty, though a bit on the sweeter side. The space is cozy with about seven tables, so it's more of an intimate spot. The service is super friendly, and the drinks are consistently good. It's a cute little gem in the heart of Alexandria--definitely recommend checking it out! read more

Continuing my quest of supporting local coffee roasters, I let my husband choose the latest place that I would patronize and he selected wisely. When we arrive we see people placing their orders through a window. I thought that was odd at first but we rolled with it. I learned that the roaster is open for service inside during certain hours. When I'm new to a place, I like to rely on staff to guide me through my choices. The young lady that took my order suggested a pistachio latte and an almond croissant after asking me some of my likes and dislikes. I went with her choices and was pleasantly surprised at how great everything tasted. I go to roasters now more than the popular chain coffee spots because they offer higher quality coffee, a more personable experience and a fun friendly atmosphere. This place was no different. There were people outside talking to each other, people walking up who knew one another, and although the staff was working hard to get everyone's order out, you can tell they were still taking their time to ensure each order was correct and served with a smile, and care. I would definitely come here again if in the area. Everything was top tier here. read more

The coffee was satisfactory and priced comparably to other coffee shops in the area. The service is generally good. However, it can be slow depending on the day and time, as the café is colocated with an office rental space. The café is suitable for a quick coffee break but not ideal for extended stays. The space is limited and has a work focused atmosphere. Outdoor seating is limited and could benefit from better maintenance (dirty and dusty). Street parking is available. The location is just a few blocks from King Street. read more

Inside a co-working space in Alexandria comes a small coffee shop from a Brazilian husband-wife team who roast their beans from around the world. Open every day except Sunday, they sell pastries from Panorama Bakery and brew a full coffee menu. I really enjoyed the seasonal Spicy Pumpkin Latte with a cayenne kick. Service was very friendly and the space is cozy and warm. read more

I had their cold brew, which was well balanced and flavorful. It was a bit crowded inside, so I had to shuffle around as people were picking up their orders. The only negative was the parking situation. I had to double-park, run in, wait for them to fill my order, then run back out to move my car. That's typical for the area--parking is at a premium. read more

Nice coffee shop off of King street in old town. It is very quaint and tucked away from the main road. There is some parking spots next to the cafe but also plenty of street parking. The indoors is a tad small in my opinion but they do have a few outdoor tables (when the weather permits of course). I tried the ice latte and cappuccino drinks and it is solid. Would recommend folks to stop by for something different! read more

Coffee Shop No. 417 Hypergoat Coffee Roasters Alexandria, VA September 19, 2024 As I walked closer to Hypergoat's shop a certain word caught my attention on their sidewalk sign. "Cortado!" They were actually promoting or encouraging a Cortado! I had never seen this before so I definitely had a skip in my step as I opened the door. The shop smelled delicious and their ambience was warm, inviting, and modern. I couldn't wait to get my hands around their cortado glass. The cortado was served in a petite tulip like glass and a little on the warm side so I waited a few minutes for it to cool a bit. It was well worth the wait. The barista served a perfectly balanced cortado so the taste of the espresso really stood out, but it wasn't bitter. The espresso drink was delicious and enjoyable. Hypergoat is a good spot to work, read a book, visit with a friend and to definitely get an expertly made espresso drink! Enjoying life one cortado at a time! read more

Great new coffee shop in old town! The staff is incredibly friendly and the coffee is wonderful. The last two monthly latte flavors have been excellent! One was floral and i thought it would be overpowering, but it was well balanced and lovely. My only complaint is that it shares space with a remote work space, so it doesn't leave much room for people just socializing to sit and catch up, but we've always lucked out with someone just leaving. read more
