DANCING GOATS ESPRESSO BAR

For this excursion we wanted to go somewhere in the heart of downtown Olympia, Dancing Goats. Dancing Goats is a Batdorf and Bronson café right by the farmers market. This is another staple Olympia café and the area exemplifies that.

Latte

For this drink, we wanted to get it with the oat milk and were happy with the way this one tasted. We gave it a 2 on sweetness because it wasn't aggressively sweet, yet it wasn't bitter either. The balance received a 5 because it was well balanced and not overpowering in any part. Overall we gave this drink a 4.5. We felt that it wasn't entirely a 5 because the oat milk was a bit thicc.

Chai

We decided for our specialty drink to get a chai with oat milk, because there really weren't many "specialty" drinks and on a cloudy day, a hot drink sounded ideal. Because it wasn't really a special drink, we gave it a 0 on creativity. However, this was an amazing chai and didn't taste like it was from a syrup. We gave this a 5 because it was everything a chai should be.

Our experience today at Dancing Goats was great with customer service being a 5. We waited a little longer (7 minutes) here than we had at previous establishments, but we also didn't come at 6 or 7 pm like we had in the past. Regardless of wait time, the line was very quick and we only waited in line for about 3 minutes or so. We gave this café a 4 for aesthetic because it had a good vibe and felt very cozy. The atmosphere was also 4 because there was plenty of seating even though the space isn't huge. On top of that, the people who work here were very attentive and valued their customers, which added to our excursion entirely.

Overall, Dancing Goats got an 8. We felt like they have perfected the way they do coffee and are consistent with their drinks and customer service. We have come in here in the past, and had similar great experiences. If you happen to walk by a Dancing Goats or Batdorf and Bronson, be sure to stop in and let us know what you thought!

Thanks for reading and we hope you enjoyed! Happy sipping!
