Goat Kick Coffee Co. Review: Two Evans Coffee Shops Worth Knowing About
A bright, comfortable coffee shop experience with good drinks, satisfying food, and two locations that serve different needs.
Not every coffee shop needs two locations. Goat Kick Coffee has managed to give each one its own identity, which makes the experience feel more intentional than repetitive.
The Ronald Reagan Drive location is the one I would choose if I wanted to stay awhile. There is plenty of seating, a drive-thru, easy parking, and enough space to comfortably work, meet a friend, or enjoy a slower morning. In addition to the indoor seating, the shop also offers outdoor seating for those who prefer to enjoy their coffee outside.
Inside Goat Kick Coffee
The shop is bright, stylish, and comfortable without feeling overly curated. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, and the space strikes a nice balance between being attractive and functional. If you enjoy thoughtfully designed spaces like this, you may also want to read our review of Bodega Ultima in Augusta, GA.
The interior combines open seating with quieter lounge-style corners, warm lighting, polished floors, and thoughtfully arranged coffee displays. The overall atmosphere feels comfortable and practical while still having plenty of character.
Two Locations, Two Different Uses
One feature that deserves special mention is the children's play area. This is not just a small basket of toys tucked into a corner. It is a thoughtfully designed space with quality toys and enough room for children to happily spend time there while parents enjoy their coffee, work on a laptop, or finish a conversation. Families with younger children will likely appreciate this addition as much as the coffee itself.
The North Belair Road location has more of a grab-and-go feel and is also home to Goat Kick's roasting operation. It is a convenient option if you want to stop in, pick up a drink, and continue on with your day.
Ronald Reagan Drive
This is the better choice when you want to sit down, work, meet someone, enjoy the patio, or stay longer with kids.
North Belair Road
This location feels better suited for a quicker stop, especially if you want coffee to go or are interested in the roasting side of the business.
What We Ordered
On our visit, we ordered a vegetable bagel pizza, a pepperoni bagel pizza, a vanilla latte, and an Americano.
The bagel pizzas were more filling than the typical coffee shop snack. The vegetable version was topped with peppers, onions, cheese, and plenty of flavor. The pepperoni bagel pizza paired especially well with the ranch dressing, which was every bit as good as the pizza itself.

For drinks, we ordered both a vanilla latte and an Americano. The vanilla latte was smooth and enjoyable without being overly sweet. The Americano offered a straightforward coffee option for anyone who prefers something simple and uncomplicated.
The bagel pizzas were casual, filling, and easy to share, which made the visit feel more like a light lunch stop than just a coffee run.
A Good Place to Work
One detail that stood out was the high-top bar seating. The tables were noticeably deeper than what you find in many coffee shops, making it easy to have a laptop, food, and drinks in front of you without everything feeling cramped.
That may sound like a small detail, but anyone who has tried to work from a coffee shop with a tiny table knows how much of a difference it can make. We noticed a similar work-friendly appeal in our review of Bodega Ultima, where comfort and layout also play a big role in the experience.
Goat Kick also offers a simple loyalty program. Customers enter their phone number during checkout and receive credit toward future visits, making it an easy program to use for regular customers.
Another thing I appreciated was how Goat Kick balances comfort with functionality. It feels like a place designed for real use, not just for appearances. Whether you want to sit down with a laptop, catch up with a friend, or simply enjoy a quiet break in the middle of the day, the layout supports that well.
Would I Go Back?
Yes.
Goat Kick Coffee has good drinks, satisfying food, friendly staff, easy parking, and two locations that serve different needs. One works well when you want to settle in for a while. The other is better suited for a quick stop.
If you are in the Evans area and looking for a place to work, meet a friend, enjoy a casual lunch, or simply take a break from the day, Goat Kick Coffee is worth adding to your list. If you enjoy discovering relaxed and family-friendly spots, you may also like our review of East Bay Deli.
The two locations offer different experiences, which makes it easy to choose the one that best fits what you need. Whether you are looking to settle in for a while or grab a drink on the go, Goat Kick has a location that works well for both.
