Goat Hill Coffee & Soda
811 W 17th St, Kansas City, MO
Crema's Take
“Tucked into an eclectic KC neighborhood, Goat Hill feels like the kind of place where regulars and newcomers alike are greeted with genuine warmth—think cozy breakfast-bar seating perfect for lingering over conversation or settling in with your laptop while your dog relaxes by your side. The baristas here are knowledgeable and enthusiastic about their seasonal offerings, consistently pulling shots that rival anything else in the city, and the sunny patio only adds to the communal, unhurried vibe that keeps people coming back.”

We loved our stop at Goat Hill! The vibe is cozy and communal with breakfast bar-style seating that makes it easy to settle in and chat. It’s also dog-friendly, and you can tel. The barista knew many of the pups (and their humans!) by name, which made the whole place feel like a true neighborhood spot. The vegan breakfast burrito and classic breakfast burrito were both delicious, and the coffee was great. But the real standout for me was the matcha. I’m admittedly a bit of a matcha snob and usually prefer making it at home, but theirs was exceptional. With homemade syrups and Spirit Tea matcha, it was perfectly balanced and honestly one of the best I’ve had out. The patrons and staff were warm and welcoming, sharing recommendations for our next visit and wishing us safe travels. Thank you for fueling our road trip back to Illinois, we’ll definitely be back next time we’re in KC!
The baristas were extremely happy to answer my questions about the seasonal menu, and the latte I decided on was one of the best I've purchased around KC recently! The patio was wonderful as well, and I'm excited to go back! Thanks for the wonderful vibes!
Friends recommended I stop here when I was up for work. I loved the vibe so much, I almost wanted to sell my house and move to the neighborhood! Kira (sp?) was attentive and engaging. She took very good care of me. My coffee was lovely, and the panini grilled sausage breakfast burrito was fantastic. I will be making sure to stay nearby as often as possible just so I can come back.
Needed some wake up juice in a quiet spot. This is a perfect little coffee shop in a really eclectic neighborhood. The type of local spot where everyone greets you with a smile. Had a great Americano and a delicious muffin. My day was started just right! Enjoy!
This is a very quaint coffee shop. Truly a hidden gem. I have driven by many times over and never noticed this place. I have been looking for a solid cup of coffee since returning from Spain, and I found it. I feel the latte was exactly what I wanted. And it is not your basic drip coffee. I will return to this shop again without question. And it is on a popular corner next to 4 Kansas City local spots. So it fits right in. I definitely recommend.
