Lucky Goat used to have storefront in a small strip mall, down the street from this location. They've exploded since those days, and it's easy to see why.
Their cold brew is infused with nitrogen, which gives a frothy, creamy mouthfeel even without added dairy. Cold brewing generally results in a milder, fruitier, and sweeter taste. They serve it in a pint glass and I order it without ice which makes me feel like I'm drinking a beer before noon, but in a socially acceptable way. You can even get it with a shot of espresso ("a Goat Bomb"), flavored, or with vanilla/cream ("a Tallycinno"). They once told me that the Black Gold French Roast is the coffee they use in the cold brew. I've made it myself overnight in a french press. While it's quite good, theirs is better. I have their growler and occasionally treat myself to a 64 oz refill of cold brew. When you want a few glasses, that's the most economical way to go.
A pound of their freshly-roasted coffee is my go-to hostess gift when I'm visiting someone out of town. If I'm not choosing a single origin, my personal favorite is the the Billy Goat breakfast blend. For someone who prefers flavored coffee, consider the Southern Pecan.
This is a great place to study on weekdays when it's a little quieter. When it's busy, you can park in the gravel lot on the far side of the building. Their baristas are knowledgeable and skilled if you'd like to order a drink that isn't merely poured from a tap. My favorite pastry is the neon green pistachio muffin that tastes like the batter had a nice douse of pistachio (or almond?) extract. The cold brew brownie is a close second.
