We were visiting friends in Colorado and decided to make a stop in Boulder. My buddy had visited this spot multiple times, so I was excited to check it out. Truth be told, it was later in the afternoon, and I actually went with tea instead of coffee that day, but from everything I saw, this place was packed with a lot of people enjoying their caffeine. The Barista was super friendly and the shop had a ton of space which I'm sure gets used all the time with Boulder being a college town. I do know, my buddy really enjoyed his coffee and next time we go back to this beautiful town, I will for sure be partaking in their coffee goodness. It really did have a great vibe and from what I can tell, it looks to be one of the more popular coffee spots in the city. Hope to visit again soon. read more

Stopped by this spot for a latte on a rainy day. I tried a seasonal pumpkin spice latte and thought it was very good! They have super good quality espresso which shines in coffee drinks. My barista was very nice and made good recommendations based on what I was looking for. The pumpkin spice flavor was great, overall what I expected. The outside looks small, but the interior is rather spacious with a lot tables for working on a laptop. The inside has 90s/early 2000s vibe with dim, ambience lighting. This is a super solid coffee spot that should be in your Boulder coffee rotation. Bonus - they offer goat milk as a milk alternative! read more

Super cute, chill, coffee shop on pearl street. Came to do some work on a Wednesday afternoon. Enjoyed my lavender oat milk latte. The front of the shop was pretty lively, had a group catching up.

Tried this coffee shop a couple days ago and I absolutely loved the vibe. The seating area is spacious, yet cozy at the same time--definitely a place I would consider visiting on a cold, dreary day. Cozy coffee shop vibe?: Check. But how is the coffee? I'm always a bit hesitant to order black coffee (my beverage of choice) when I'm out, due to the bitterness and acidity levels, but the coffee was surprisingly smooth here. Granted, I opted for the light roast, but it's all in the way it's brewed. Considering this is Pearl Street, where things can be a bit overpriced, the prices here were quite reasonable. Plus the service here is pretty great--super friendly. I'd definitely come back if I'm ever wandering around the area. read more

Looks cozy, no line, nice atmosphere, but I was hungry for something to eat with my coffee (a fresh pastry, perhaps?) but all they seem to have is pre-wrapped stuff. No thanks. read more

Strawberry matcha latte with oat milk was excellent! Cute spot in a walkable area of Boulder. Easy to pop in to!

Cute and comfy spot to drink coffee, hang out, or get some work done for a while. The server was friendly and they have a good selection of flavoring, I do wish they had soy milk though (options were almond, oat, and goat).. but I get it can be a lot to carry for a smaller place. Prices were "normal" ($7 for a medium iced latte with nondairy + flavor is normal now I guess). Good WiFi. I'd go back there to work again! read more

I came here to do some computer work while in Boulder. I got their Andes Mint Matcha and it was so delicious. The baristas were personable, helpful, and kind. The ambiance was great, they have lots of diverse seating options and it was cool to watch how the customers flowed during my time there. Everything from families chatting, homework co working, a date or two, people reading, and other solo computer people. I fully recommend coming here. read more

When living in Boulder years ago, this was a favorite hangout spot for me. The Laughing Goat is located on Pearl Street, just south of Pearl Street Mall. What I like the most about this place, besides their great coffee, is the reasonable noise level and the ample amount of places to sit. For their coffee, they use Kaladi Brothers Coffee. It's a favorite coffee of mine in the Denver area. I do not remember the last time I visited here. Not much has changed. They've remained consistent. I liked their live acoustic bands or performers back in the day. I'm not sure if they offer this anymore. If they do, I recommend checking a live performance out. If I still lived in Boulder, I would come here often. This was great to visit today and reminisce about old times past. Today I ordered a 12 ounce drip coffee, "for here" (staying in the establishment while enjoying your beverage) and a slice of banana bread. I love how they serve the coffee in a ceramic cup rather than the typical cheap paper type. Coffee was consistently good. It could've been a little hotter. Banana Bread was a bit disappointing. It was too dry. I prefer sweet breads moist. I recommend that management keeps an eye on stale pastries; to check shelf life for removal. They do offer a lot of pastries and sweet breads which is great. I like how the establishment is clean. Tables didn't seem dirty or in need of wiping down. I very much enjoyed people watching; seeing various people working on laptops or engaged in conversation. This is a nice community oriented coffee shop. The art work on the walls were pleasant to look at. The young man who took my order was pleasant to interact with. Overall, I very much enjoyed my return here. Wish this place was closer to my current home. I will definitely return here for my next Boulder visit. read more

I love the Laughing Goat at Norlin. Typically the vibes are great. However, I visited today and the crew was shouting, cussing, and running around. It was wild. The guys behind the counter are shadow boxing, talking about moving, laughing loud- it is like they are on drugs....or perhaps too much caffeine. It was hard to hold a conversation at a table because it was so noisy. It is great that the crew gets along so well but today it was hard to be productive in this space. read more

It's my eternal favorite - why? Lovely little patio and sitting area where you can enjoy your book or people watch as folks walk by. Best latte in town, served hot and foamy as I like it. I go often and that won't ever change. Keep up the great work read more

I went to get a pumpkin chai with espresso on a rainy day, it was excellent and came out within 5 minutes. It was the perfect place to get some work done, with the relaxed music being played and the large amount of students studying. read more

Came here to work during the day, and ordered the Venetian cream. It was pretty good, a little sweet, but my biggest qualm was that my cup was FULL of ice. There was barely any liquid in it because the ice was filled to the brim!! Pretty sure I got more ice than coffee; I could finish the coffee in like two sips. I stayed for 3-4 hours working, and by the time I left, the ice still hasn't completely melted and I still had half a cup of ice left. I went to order a second cup of Venetian cream with no ice, and it was still at a pretty cool temperature. If you order Venetian cream, I would HIGHLY recommend getting no ice or asking for less ice!!! read more

Loved this place! Needed somewhere to work from while on a business trip to Boulder. Staff was friendly. Lots of pastry options including gluten free options. Coffee was good, not overly sweet which I love! Lots of varieties of milks and syrups to add in. The space itself is large with plugs for laptops, tables, booths, etc. and an outdoor space if it's a nice day! read more

My friend gave me a hard time for only tipping the barista 15%. The interaction was so brief. He didn't ask about my day or even make eye contact. I didn't care, I was actually relieved. I wasn't feeling social anyways. At the same time I didn't feel the need to tip him more than 15% for less than 10 seconds of his time. Later that day I went to the grocery store with the same friend. At this point I had my coffee and was feeling more social. When we were checking out, the grocery clerk was so friendly. She greeted us with a huge smile and started asking us about our day. She seemed to show genuine interest. When she finished scanning and bagging our groceries, she smiled and wished us a good day. I didn't leave her a tip and my friend thought that was okay. Anyway, the Laughing Goat made me re-think the way I tip. They also serve delicious drinks. read more

Very friendly staff and excellent drinks!! I was indecisive about whether I wanted a sweet or unsweet chai once and the barista offered to make me a different one if I didn't like it. I always feel very taken care of by the staff even when there is a line out the door. The only thing that I don't love is the lack of natural light in the back of the cafe. Unless you get a table outside or right by the window, it is pretty dark and sleepy in the cafe. read more

I walk in and I start talking to the barista (she's asking me about my nails). Her co worker walks over & says "your card was declined". ...we both looked at him and she said "it's not her" {b/c I hadn't placed my order yet}. I feel a way, b/c this person did not ask my name OR what my "order" was. Besides his co worker being engaging; he could absolutely use some further training/etiquette as to how to approach customers and not assume A THING about them. read more

Haven't tried their coffee or tea, but got their chai last week and it was watery/not great. Actually got slightly better when it went cold, but wouldn't repeat. The place a cute though, and the crowded tables and clientele made it seem like a go-to place for students (and even professors?) in the area read more

Kaladi Coffee...in Colorado?! We have Kaladi's all over Anchorage. This place has the same logo. Apparently, the Anchorage Kaladi is the "original", it was founded by two brothers. One sold it to the other, moved to CO, and started up a coffee-roasting operation with...the exact same name. I'm going to go ahead and betray my homeland and say: This is better than any of the Kaladi locations in Anchorage. Why? - they have beer and wine. - they have concerts. - they have great, rotating photography/art on the walls. - they have FAST internet. Probably about 50-100X faster than any location in Anchorage. - they have TONS of seating and TONS of power outlets. Anyway, great coffee/working spot in Boulder. read more

Cool, hipster coffee shop (redundant, yes I know) right in the heart of Pearl St in downtown Boulder. It's exactly the kind of place you'd expect to grab a cup of coffee in Boulder and it's an equally good place to people watch (indoors & out) as well as get a good cuppa. Their matcha latte and drip coffee are some of the best I've had in a long time and, while a bit pricey, what isn't in town? Also, bonus - they serve booze, so it *really* becomes a good place for people watching at any time of day. Staff is friendly and genuine. Place is a little long in the tooth, but the keep it clean. Good selection of local-ish food & snacks. Plenty of outlets. Not a whole lot else to ask for from a coffee shop in a college town. read more

(YC2017, 98/100) Heard a lot about this place so I had to make a stop and check it out. This is one of three of their locations, and also their flagship location - the only one that features live music and spoken word! Unfortunately, I only had time to come by quickly in the morning but I had a pretty good experience. Right when you walk in, you're going to notice it's not really like your typical coffee shops nowadays. It has more a bar vibe to it. Tables & chairs are scattered everywhere and there is bar seating as well. I'm guessing this is strategic for the live music sessions. There is some weird goat decor in there though; like a little coffee shrine thingy - I didn't get that. There's some seating outside as well. Anyways, I ordered a latte and while it wasn't the best latte I've ever had, it was decent. Good microfoam, but had just a tad of burnt flavor. But I can't say enough about the service. The dude was super friendly throughout my transaction, and after taking a bunch of other orders after me, actually remembered my name 45 minutes later as was leaving and told me to have a good day. Sure, I can pass this off as impeccable memory, but I'd chalk it up to good customer service - simple, but so very important to start off their customer's days! read more

Nice choice for coffee on pearl. I had cold brew and my husband had an iced mate latte. He liked that enough that he ordered two! A lot of seating with tables inside so good for studying or working. A sign was posted limiting you to two hours. This does leave it ridiculously quiet if you're meeting with a friend for coffee you might be the only two talking in the place if my experience is normal. There's some outdoor seating which looked a little more social. This is a portion of the street where you can find street parking right out front if you're lucky. read more

By far the best cup of coffee I've ever had. Now I'm addicted and drive down once a month from the high Rockies to get my fix!

Great coffee & appreciate all of the COVID precautions Laughing Goat has taken. (No seating inside and distancing guidelines.) Note: I was able to get coffee in my reusable travel mug; the baristas are not allowed to touch your mug but will pour the coffee into a steaming cup and transfer into your mug. Love! read more

I love hip coffee ships with lots of outlets, plenty of seating area, and free wifi. This is the perfect spot for when ya got that final to cram for, and studying at home is a no go because you'd wind up taking afternoon naps in your bed. Or when you're on travel (me) and your coworkers are asking you (me) where is that powerpoint you (I) promised three days ago, so you gotta camp out somewhere but wind up writing yelp reviews as a form of procrastination. This place has a good selection of coffees and teas, and they have a sweet guide for the constituent ratio breakdown for their drinks. I love a good, illustrated guide. See attached. I was boring and just ordered the Jasmine Tea, but it comes in a cute little colored tea pot. It's fun. You can also add a CBD coconut cube to any drink for a $1.90 + tax. Extra fun. All in all, if I were a local I would come here all the time. They have a sign requesting you don't stay over two hours though, so leave your sleeping bag at home. read more
