Reviews for Richards' Goat Tavern & Tea Room in Arcata, CA
My favorite bar in Arcata if I'm looking to go out and have fun on a weekend! Lots of great events at the multiplex (attached... venue) and seems generally hip and queer friendly compared to other bars ???? Read more
Just a nice spot. Great to go out with friends and drink. Its small, but so is the town.
if you are going to charge a $10 cover open another bar or hire more bartenders. Paying to get in, then waiting for ever for... a drink sucks There are other bars in town. Read more
Don't go to events here. If you see a flier and it's like "karaoke" or "goth night" at Richard's goat, don't go. It's a nice... bar. But it's too small for any kind of club-like event. I don't know why they keep having events here. This is a place you gofor a quick drink and a snack and a neat weird little atmosphere but it does not have the space nor resources to accommodate thesheer amount of people that come to events like this. Go to the theater lounge if you want to club and dance and party. Go tothe Richard's goat if you want to be in an extremely crowded space and wait an hour to get a drink or use the bathroom.

This place is interesting, very different than the typical bar. I'll be honest it's not really my scene at all I'm more of a... sports bar type dude but I have had fun on karaoke nights here. I just feel like I might break something while I'm here and oroffend a fellow customer or staff member. It's an alternative type crowd I guess I'd say if I tried to describe the crowd Read more
A great, charming bar and venue where I always feel super safe and can have fun. You can dress up cute and not feel weird but I... also feel fine in a hoody. It's good for a low key hangout like a movie or board game, a date night, or dancing/ karaoke with agroup. Sometimes when it's busy you have to be patient, but who is in a rush for a fancy cocktail or tea? The Goat is great! Read more
Great vibe. Classy, clean, laid back environment. Wonderful little theater room that doubles as a karaoke room on Sunday nights.... Bar tenders are on it and are all friendly. No jocks and no cocks. Read more
So much fun! Great visitors, lots of places to sit and chat, karaoke and neat cocktails. Little divey but still clean.
