About The Goat Coffee House

Where Coffee Meets Community

The Goat Coffee House is a locally owned Eau Claire coffeehouse built around great coffee, artisan baked goods, community, and a place to feel at home.

Owners Ryan and Laura both grew up in Eau Claire, and this community has always been home. Ryan graduated from North High School, while Laura is a proud UW–Eau Claire alumna. Together, they built their family and raised their children here, turning their love for the community into a coffeehouse that reflects the people and place they care so much about.

They believed Eau Claire deserved a coffeehouse that was truly its own—not a chain, but a local gathering place with expertly prepared coffee, quality food, and a little local charm.

Supporting our Local Community -

Today, The Goat has three Eau Claire locations, each reflecting that same commitment to quality, community, and making people feel welcome.

Being part of Eau Claire means more to us than simply having a business here. We love supporting the people, organizations, and creativity that make our community special.

At our Water Street location, The Goat is right in the heart of the UW–Eau Claire community, serving the students and fellow Blugolds who call Eau Claire home. This location also features a local Artist of the Month each month, giving area artists a place to display their artwork throughout the coffeehouse.

Whether you're grabbing coffee on your way to work, meeting a friend, studying, bringing the family in for a treat, or simply looking for a place to slow down, we want The Goat to feel like your local coffeehouse.

Great coffee. Artisan baked goods. Local art. Community.

That's The Goat.
