I'd been by this shop a couple times at night when they were closed and thought it looked interesting, so I figured I'd make it a point to pay them a visit sometime when they were actually open.
I came here with the intention of buying a cup of coffee and a bit of cake to start the day, but after noticing that a black coffee was going to run me 1050 yen, I opted for just the coffee.
Goodman Roaster is a roomier coffee spot than most, but seating was still scarce when I arrived. It's a good thing I found a seat, though, because my black coffee took a really long time to get to me. Other parties arrived after I did, ordered, and left with their drinks before I'd gotten mine.
When my coffee did arrive, it was a pretty good cup. The tasting card promised notes of muscat, and damned if I didn't smell and taste some muscat notes in that cup. Not my favorite flavor profile, but I appreciate that the roaster and the barista were able to coax the flavors out of the beans that they advertised.
The place is a bit on the noisy side when it's full, so don't expect to have a relaxing cup of coffee while you read if it's a busy day. All in all, a coffee shop that knows what it's doing, and is doing it well.
