We ordered a bunch of lattes for the two of us to sustain us through the 600 miles of driving the day would bring. The crew brought them up quickly and cheerfully, making conversation while still getting the assignment done prontissimo. Super cute environment, wood furniture, up cycled old chairs, lush plants and adorable goat themed art. I would go there in a heartbeat just to hang out. If I had one quibble it would be that the lattes didn't have much foam on them. But the quality of the coffee was excellent. They roast in house and they don't use over-dark roasts for their espresso. Well done Toasty Goat!

I tried a blueberry scone (so soft, so fresh, so moist, perfectly not too sweet, lovely!) and a classic cappuccino - which was spot on everything you love in an espresso. Thank you Acola! I'm glad I drove a few minutes from the Hwy for this special treat! If I were a local, I may live here!

All of the staff was super friendly and the coffees were fantastic. I got a basic drip coffee with skim milk, but what took it to the next level was their house-made syrup.

Our drinks were perfectly balanced and the microfoam is outstanding - I will never have foam in my latte anywhere else because this place does it right. We came on a slow holiday morning, the barista was super friendly and attentive to everyone who came in while we were there and we enjoyed the conversation with our coffee. The vibe is artsy and eclectic and the atmosphere is welcoming. They're also at the Columbia Farmers Market on Saturdays if you don't get downtown much. If you're looking for something new, the ube syrup is a must-try!

This shop has three stand outs to me. If you're Just a simple coffee drinker - try the Madagascar vanilla nut. If you like (hot) chai lattes they have my favorite out there so far! I tried a frozen lemonade recently and it's so yummy and refreshing during the summer. One location is open until late evening which I think is awesome. I find myself wanting a late coffee now and again but most importantly I respect later hours because it gives students a place to go outside of their home to get a drink and work done in a comfortable environment.
