| - I always order an Americano from new coffee places as it's a good indicator for me. The Americano I got today at Goat during my first (and only visit, forever) was flavourful but weak (single shot). What was a real turnoff was the bearded guy behind the counter. Same vibe as Bulldog, yikes. He didn't greet us, barely muttered a hello when we greeted him, was indifferent and never made any attempt at interaction or eye contact, and walked away from us right after he took our order to berate one of his staff for leaving the back door open. Just really poor trashy practice, and we were absolutely turned off this place, immediately. The cafe is beautiful but utterly lacks any atmosphere, personality or soul and looks like a ripoff of a million other indie coffee houses in the city (communal table, window bar, exposed brick, reclaimed wood blah blah blah). Too bad as there's nothing to rival it in the area. I will never ever go back, and don't care whether this mediocre cookie cutter place lasts.
