The Sleepless Goat ("The Goat") is a worker's co-operative. Quite famous for their desserts, the goat serves coffees and teas, and a range of vegan / vegetarian foods. It is an alternative culture hangout. Located on Princess St near the intersection with Wellington St. Customer service can be slow at times, but the staff is amazing. Music and house blend "Dr. Joe" coffee are both very good. Free WiFi, but electrical outlets are limited to the front of the café.
Coffee and Company sells espresso, coffees, and good teas prepared for loose leaves. A common student study hangout located downtown.
Starbucks at Wellington and Princess. A common student study hangout for those not concerned with politics. This Starbucks was vandalized three times (paint is still visible on canopy above the door) before police put cameras on nearby buildings. Service is good. In direct competition with "The Goat", which is a few doors down the street.
Sipps is a relatively new coffee shop in Kingston. It is located on Brock St. facing Market Square. A great place to wind down in the evening with a desert or latte, it is worth a trip just for the decor (look up, the ceiling is decorated with a design stamped into aluminum). Prices are not cheap, a slice of cake runs about $8. Try a hot chocolate, made with Ghirardelli chocolate.
Tim Hortons can be found throughout the city.
Country Style has two locations: west on Bath Road (Hwy. 33), and corner of John Counter Blvd. (formerly Elliot Avenue) and Montreal St. in the north end, right next to the Community Spirit Bingo Hall.
