Crema's Take
“The baristas at The Jolly Goat—Brandon, Murat, and their team—are genuinely invested in making you feel like a regular on day one, which sets this place apart in a city where coffee shops can feel transactional. Their espresso drinks hit hard enough to convert black-coffee skeptics, and the pastries (especially those almond croissants) pair perfectly with the slow, unhurried vibe that makes it as good for a solo morning as it is for lingering with friends. If you're tired of impersonal NYC coffee, this is where you go to remember why a great cup matters.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

I visited The Jolly Goat back in May when I was in New York and was so excited to come back again this fall! I never thought I could drink my coffee black without any milk but I was pleasantly surprised with their house coffee. It tasted so smooth without a hint of bitterness. I…
Currently I’m an owner of a coffee shop in Wheatland, CA. The Jolly Goat caught our eye just from the name and it definitely did not disappoint. The environment was very welcoming, and as soon as we got to the counter, the barista did an amazing job of taking our order,…
