High quality espresso. I really enjoyed my cappuccino and I also tried the borgia. I would get an iced mocha from them but the orange zest in the borgia wasn't for me. If you like orange zest in coffee definitely try it though! Service was fast and friendly. It definitely has a specific punk rock(?) vibe so it's a cool place to sit and enjoy your coffee. I would stop here again next time I visit Oregon. read more

Expensive, low quality coffee. Very disappointing flavor in all 4 drinks we ordered, felt like i was sipping on straight grey water

I regularly get the 1/2 order of vegan biscuits and gravy. I can't tell you how obsessed I am with it! I also usually get the Brown Sugar Spiced latte, decaf, with Oatmilk and I swear by it. Their coffee is quality and their baked good are killer! The barista's are typically more quiet than spunky but always nice! I love the vibes here and how cozy it is. I usually just come to hang out, but they do have a note on the door saying "No Wifi" so make sure you have a hotspot if you want to do work. read more

I've been curious about Wandering Goat for a while so whilst I was running errands sans child I stopped since I didn't have to worry about getting her out (or back in, which can be a more difficult task). It's a small place but has quite a few tables in and outside; there is about twice as much outdoor seating as indoor. I ordered a chai, but they made me a regular latte--thankfully I had only gotten down the block before I tasted it and figured that out. They remade the drink, though I expect I paid more for it than I would have if it was just a chai (they didn't offer a price adjustment) but I didn't think about that until later. Their chai is interesting. They have a sweet and unsweetened one, apparently. It's not like anything I've ever tried before, so it's cool they have a totally unique blend. I got half sweet, since I wasn't sure how sweet it might be. I was surprised that it tasted very floral, perhaps rose? Very perfumey. My sister wanted to try it as well and she remarked that it smelled like perfume as well, and I had not mentioned that to her since I wanted to see what she thought without my input. It's not a chai that I'd probably try again but I was happy enough to drink the one I had. They have no wifi, so don't want to forget to mention that since folks generally expect it anywhere now--perhaps especially at coffee shops. So if you're planning to come here and do some work, make sure that it's offline. It's also important to note that they don't have a drive-through and parking is very very limited--they may have a couple in a the lot next door to the place, but for the most part you'll be looking at street parking. read more

Wandering Goat Coffee - Be Good. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eugene, Oregon

I came here with a friend for the first time today, we had a good experience! The barista was really friendly and gave some good recommendations. My friend liked her blueberry lemon loaf and cappuccino. I thought the cold brew was pretty bitter, I would get a different drink next time. Vibes were really good though. Cute spot with lots of seating and chill music. I would come back here! read more

I love this place. Come here whenever I am in town. Fantastic coffee. Kind people. Comfortable environment.

Yay new favorite coffee! I recommend the salted maple. The barista was as electrifying as the beverage. I'm very picky, I've definitely crossed into snob when it comes to coffee. I know, I'm a monster. This place hit every mark and I'm literally relieved we can rely on it to be good when I am not emotionally prepared for bad coffee. Comfy inside, love the walk up window, clean and eclectic, the place feels Alive. And yeah, the beverage revitalized my soul. The coffee tastes like coffee, not diabetes! So much love. A great social community hub, looking forward to making it a regular stop. read more

While my husband was grabbing some beer at Oakshire, I stopped in here because I heard they had loose leaf tea. They also have a really impressive coffee selection. The owner, Aaron, was super knowledgeable and was very helpful with all of my questions. I appreciate how they store their tea in airtight opague canisters to keep it fresh. They had a lot of variety for tea considering it is a coffee-focused place. I also got the drip coffee to try and it was very nice too! Didn't try the vegan pastries but maybe next time. There are a few food trucks around if you want a more hearty meal. I do wish there was inside seating and hopefully they will bring it back soon. In the meantime there is a fair amount of seating outside. read more

Spacious, clean, friendly staff, good prices and options. Pastry was nice (cinnamon roll & blackberry almond scone for the wife). They don't offer wifi which is not an issue just a mention. Nice little eclectic local coffee shop. Has a punk rock new age feel with soft techno/trance music. It's not loud it's a calming but not put you to sleep music. Really a fun vibe worth the trip if you are in Eugene. It has indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Awesome vibe, awesome people, even better coffee. Best in Eugene by a mile. Even better I just found out they also host live music as well.

It's going on what feels like 10 years of ordering 5lbs bags of whatever Ethiopian Natural whole bean they have and sometimes other bags of their impressive roasts. This morning I was thinking before an online order, should I try someone different. The truth is, I've tried them all, Eugene, Portland and some roasters throughout the states. Wandering Goat is my jam!!! I've never been let down. I'm always stoked to open up the seal of that black bag. Just wanted to stop by and show some love, they deserve my review and 5 stars to add to the mix. Peace! read more

Good coffee, friendly service, never seems crowded. A good place to sit and chill, as long as you don't mind that they have no wifi. You can also call in advance and acquire burlap bags for gardening purposes for a reasonable price. Across the street from Oakshire pub in Whitaker. read more

I just want to say that years ago this was my favorite coffee shop, I'd drive all the way from yoncalla to go here. I'd meet friends here and chill, and staff was always so kind and nice to talk with. I never knew about punk rock or metal, I grew a respect for them and the crowd, because they're kind. Oh and worth saying, I'm Black. Oregon isn't kind to minorities. In Eugene I'd feel a lot safer a this place was healing for my trauma. A safe place. I was always happy to patronize. I remember Jimmy, he was awesome. I hope you all are wonderful, I think about this place a lot, even years later. Quality service and coffee consistently amazing, especially the espresso. Nom nomnombnomnom!! The biscuits and gravy my goodness I'd eat one there and a scone and take some to go on the way home, in the cold Oregon rain was sooo yummy! I hope I can go back someday. read more

Had an iced brown sugar spice latte and vegan biscuits and gravy (i think it was mushroom?) Delicious. The coffee was good and rich as well, great service from the workers as well! Def check it out! read more

I really enjoyed the sense of humor, friendliness and helpful suggestions here. I ended up getting the cold brew that was spot on with just the right about of richness yet smooth enough to drink black. I got a snickerdoodle cookie to go with-to die for; as well as a day old ginger cookie that was excellent the next day - so 2 days old! My friend got a lovely looking chai that she said was tasty as well. This used to be a place I'd come to study in graduate school, and I saw a few students dotted throughout the inside, along with others from all walks of life. Now, 8 years later (had it really been that long?!), it was the perfect spot to meet up with an old friend-loved the music they played too. Keep it up Goat! read more

It is consistently one of the best coffee places around. One of my first memories of Eugene almost 20 years ago was stumbling into Wandering Goat, and a punk concert broke out. It was awesome! Today, I sat outside in the sun and had an iced brown sugar spice almond milk latte, and it was perfection! I've had their vegan biscuits and gravy in the past, and its awesome! Pro tip: go to Mothers food cart right next door and grab one of the best breakfast sandwiches around. read more

Deliciously rich coffee, scrumptious pastries. Staff is expertly attentive and kind. Relaxing atmosphere

I've had Wandering Goat on my list for a while and finally stopped by recently. I just ordered by the walk up window (couldn't tell if there was actually an indoor area open?) and there is a small parking lot available with about 4 spaces on the side of the railroad tracks. WG offers a variety of milk alternatives and sweet and savory pastry options (some vegan), and a scattering of outdoor tables. One of their coffee specials sounded appealing to me ("Borgia" - homemade chocolate sauce + orange peel) and it was smooth and delicious and I loved the hint of orange. Reminded me of one of those chocolate oranges you see around Christmas but with a coffee kick! I only got an 8 oz. ($5) but I could see it being too sweet /heavy in a much larger size. read more

As a coffee lover and bean collector, Wandering Goat Coffee is one of my top picks. Even though I haven't visited the location in person, I drink their coffee almost every day. I love their variety of flavor profiles, and they always seem to come out with new flavors. I look forward to visiting the coffee shop soon. Thanks for making some of the best beans I've found! I absolutely love the artwork on their packaging! read more

It isn't quite the same since pandemic, but W.G. is still the best place to quickly grab coffee and vegan biscuits & gravy whenever I visit Eugene. Places like this are what makes the Whit the city's most interesting neighborhood. read more

Feeling generous today--as I am forced to shiver outside. For a long time now, Wandering Goat has no longer allowed customers inside. We are relegated to five outdoor picnic tables along the sidewalk. This is a strange place. An unwelcoming vibe. As an earlier reviewer wrote, the wait staff here always seem to be thinking "What are you doing here?" And I too wonder the same. Maybe it's a better place to wait on an oil change than a car repair shop's lounge. But other than that, I'll pass. Wish I'd worn a coat. read more

Fantastic place to grab a cup of coffee or specialty espresso. We got the Borgia (orange chocolate flavor) and brown sugar latte both were amazing. Found out about this coffee shop because we saw their coffee in a local grocery store and loved the packaging. Highly recommend checking them out. read more

Really enjoyed walking up and grabbing a quick $3 large drip coffee that rivaled some pour overs I've had! Not to mention ruin it was a Friday after 5, and all the food trucks were open plus some live music. The skatepark is also nearby if that's your jam. Definitely will be coming a common hotspot for me! read more

We don't fit in. Them - hipster, dark and bohemian. Mr. B and Me - cute little old couple. But why should that stop me? This speaks of good coffee. I like bohemian. I like this place. If you want to experience of a real coffee house feel, come here. Being close to the university you will find a cross section of suits and starving student types, curled up using the free wi fi and enjoying pastries and vegan foods. So Oregonian! They roast their own beans and bake their own pastries. You can peer in the large picture windows towards the back where the magic happens. Very good, friendly vibes. We came here because they are a roastery, but ended up sitting while we people watched and each drank a cup. They special made me a cup of Sumatra, my usual choice, but were brewing Bolivian today. Bolivian won the prize. Two bags of beans go home with us. Ahhh. My car smells divine, all the way back to So Cal. Next time I may indulge in a cup of their custom made Chai with 14 spices. We'll definitely come back. read more

If you listen to this while you read thus review, it will be as if you were in this great little coffee house with me. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvdyu0bYOL8&NR=1&feature=fvwp Because this tune was playing on the sound system while I waited on my order of really good, bold, very hot black coffee to be poured to go. While I waited I enjoyed free entertainment from the cute staff behind the service bar who were literally dancing along to the music, just as if they belonged in the associated music video, while they prepared coffee orders. Pretty fun...in particular since none of them were likely born when the song debuted! (When was it...1985?) Thanks to Yeeps who posted reviews for my husband and me to know about Wandering Goat when we visited Eugene. Based on this first experience we're fans - of the coffee, of the vibe and of the service. We would be regular customers if we lived in Eugene. We're looking forward to going back again for more great coffee and next time ordering "for here" to soak up the ambiance. Although a bit off the beaten path in an aging light industrial area, this really had a neighborhood-place feel and all people are welcome here vibe inside and out. As in outside a couple of guys were bundled up for the 42 degree weather and playing checkers at a table near the sidewalk with their coffee along side. As in inside where an older couple was playing a board game, Parcheesi maybe, a group of younger men in work attire were engaged in conversation punctuated by lots laughter, and other people were enjoying beverages and breakfast goodies and chatting or reading books. We were tempted to blow off our schedule an take a seat and bask in the happy vibe of the place as we sipped the excellent coffee. Next time. For sure there will be a next time. And maybe another star to go with it if the food is on par with the great coffee and vibe! read more

Popular and trendy coffee spot with a reputation that stands strong. Stayed nearby at an airbnb and checked Yelp for a coffee shop within walking distance. Almost went to another shop, but got lost on back roads and looked this one up second. Glad I did because the coffee here is epic. Although the spot is randomly in an industrial area and literally on the other side of the train tracks, the journey is very worth it. It shares the corner with another spot, and can easily be missed. As you go in there is nothing special or really memorable except this stuffed head of a goat on the wall adjacent to the counter. They have a wide selection of coffee, snacks, teas, and house-made syrups. I'd heard about the Borgia (mocha with orange zest) and decided to get that. Superb and nuanced latte that I feel the rest of the world is missing out on. If you're ever in Eugene (the only place you can get this), definitely hit this place up. read more

Great locals coffee shop. Looks like they make their own muffins and scones. Went early in the morning. We felt like we were putting the employees out and bothering them by ordering coffee and a muffin. One never even turned around and the other was somewhere in Jamaica. Didn't say two words, nor respond when we said thank you. First time there. Recommended by a friend. Wouldn't go out of my way to go back. There is a Dutch Brothers right next to our hotel. We could hear the gals playing fun music and laughing as we got into our car to go to the grumpy goat. The food case was almost empty. It was great to see another gal using her bare hand to put new food into the case, rub her nose and touch the trash with the same hands, yum! Not planning on going back. read more

I was not impressed with a place where you can not sit down to enjoy your cup of coffee. The brew is okay, but I need to be able to sit down and enjoy my coffee with a nice pastry or breakfast item that is home made. read more

Aside from the somewhat creepy walk to get here, I enjoyed this coffery very much. It's very hipster/grunge, with interesting characters both behind the counter and patrons sitting in one of the various tables inside or out. It's not in a location near the central downtown area so you have to be committed if you want to try it, although the walk from voodoo donuts was only about 20 minutes. I had a pretty darn good vanilla latte and I'd come back again for surr. read more

It's hard to convey how surreal and bad the customer service experience is here. Every time I come, I'm reminded why it's been so long since the last time. The feeling is "wtf are YOU doing here", and I again have to wonder why indeed AM I here? Just go anywhere else and have a normal and sane interaction. It's a shame because the coffee is excellent. But there's no shortage of good coffee in the PNW. read more
