5 Stars - A Hidden Gem During the Packwood Flea Market! I stopped by The Mountain Goat coffee shop and bakery in Packwood, WA during the flea market weekend, and I’m so glad I did. The service was absolutely top-notch. Gretchin, the barista, and Abram, the cashier, made the whole experience warm and welcoming. Abram greeted me with kind eyes and a friendly vibe—he even took a moment to chat while I placed my order, which added a personal touch that really stood out. I ordered a regular Americano with extra heavy whipping cream and honey, and let me tell you—it was perfect. No burnt flavors, just smooth, rich espresso and the right amount of creaminess. They even offer a discount if you pay with cash, which is a nice bonus. I loved that they had honey, cinnamon, and other spices available on the counter to customize your drink even more.
They only serve Americanos in 12 oz cups, which totally makes sense so there’s enough room for ice or extras. I didn’t check out the bakery items much, but they looked good from what I saw. Also, huge props for having a separate hand washing station—super convenient and thoughtful, especially during busy weekends like this. ♥︎ All in all, The Mountain Goat delivered quality coffee, great service, and good vibes. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in...
Read moreWe were staying at Crescent Lodge and looking for coffee early in the morning before heading to Mount Rainier. Most places were still closed, but luckily, we found the Mountain Goat Coffee Shop—the only spot open in the area.
The coffee was good, but the blueberry muffin was absolutely delicious! We even got to see a girl making fresh dough while two ladies prepared our coffee. The atmosphere was charming, and we loved the freshness of everything being served.
Although we couldn’t find many vegetarian options, one of the ladies kindly suggested we try a vegetarian popper (I wish I could remember the exact name). We waited 5-10 minutes since they were still baking, and it was worth every second.
We ate the popper while driving to Mount Rainier and immediately regretted ordering just one—it was so tasty!
This place is a must-visit for fresh, flavorful treats and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend...
Read moreOatmeal choc coconut almond cookie- very good cookie with all the right flavors. Good amount of chocolate with a great coconut flavor. Crisp exterior and edges with a nice moist center.
Ginger molasses cookie- perfect holiday cookie. Warm spice character. Whitney wants more ginger and said it's too earthy from the molasses. I would like either more snap or more moisture as it sits in the center. Absolutely would get again.
Breakfast scone- with habanero pepper jelly. Man oh man, incredible. Best scone we've ever had. Moist and flavorful with the perfect jelly. Such a great treat.
Blueberry muffin - really really good. Great flavor and tons of blueberries. Not quite as sweet as I like for a muffin but darn close and quite delicious.
Mocha cold brew- fantastic flavor. Probably the best mocha flavor for a cold brew I've ever...
