feel totally scammed by this place. I don’t usually leave reviews, but this experience deserves the extra effort.
I used to live in Atlanta, and Dancing Goats was my go-to coffee shop. Back then, I had nothing but praise for their hot coffee selection - it was consistently great. So on a recent visit to the city, I decided to stop by my once-favorite spot and try something refreshing: an iced matcha latte. Worst decision ever.
What I got was a pale green cup of what can only be described as dirt milk - gritty, chalky, with undissolved matcha clumps floating around and settled at the bottom. It tasted awful. And at $7.20 + tax + tip (one I now seriously regret), it was hands down the worst matcha latte I’ve ever had.
To make matters worse, the pricing is outrageous - higher than what you’d pay at many coffee shops in Manhattan. That’s saying something. Honestly, if you’re craving a matcha latte, even Dunkin’ or Starbucks (while still being two worst options on the market) might at least serve you something semi-drinkable. They’re the fast-food of coffee, and still somehow manage to outdo Dancing Goats on this one.
I’m genuinely disappointed, Dancing Goats. You used to be great, and now it feels like you’re just cashing in. Shame.
