If you haven't visited Gray Goat Farmtique yet, you're missing out! This charming cafe and makers shop is an absolute gem. Jonathan went above and beyond by opening up early for my surprise wedding shower, and it turned out to be an unforgettable brunch experience. Coming from St. Pete, Florida, I'm all about supporting local businesses, and Gray Goat Farmtique exceeded my expectations.The food was absolutely phenomenal, and I'm pretty sure everyone left with a cute item from their store—it's hard not to with such a lovely selection. Plus, they offer makers classes where you can learn to make bread, candles, and even attend tastings. How cool is that?A huge thank you to Gray Goat Farmtique for hosting such a wonderful shower. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

I love everything about the grey goat! Jonathan is the best!

This is a sweet little place, not like anywhere else local I know of. Lots of handmade stuff to shop, and drinks and tasty tidbits to eat there or purchase and eat at home. So glad we found it. We will be returning.

Been hearing a lot about Grey Goat and finally got to go today for happy hour. The drinks were delicious and unique. We love our jalapeno margaritas and blackberry bourbon smash! Very fancy. We had the chicken salad cups and the deviled eggs, delicious! Love the atmosphere and so many good products that are local to shop for. Excited to go back especially because they change their menu weekly!

This place is a must try! The boutique is adorable and has the nicest items, mostly homemade/local. The food is excellent, as well. Strawberry Grilled Cheese is a favorite.

Super cute shoppe with everything from jewelry and accessories to home decor and novelty items. I recently bought a pack of Taylor Swift coasters for a friend's birthday. They also have a little cafe with cocktails, cocktails, and coffee beverages.

The goat is "THE GOAT!" Gf and I went on a date there Saturday night for a quick bite and the Italian wedding soup was so good that we had to return the following day, Sunday, for more soup and a charcuterie board.All excellent! Johnathan was extremely nice and welcoming and we loved the neat gifts and items surrounding us as a backdrop to our delicious snack.Thank you Johnathon, much luck to you and we'll see you soon!!

Our office ordered an 8-person charcuterie board and it was a big hit - the board was beautiful, reasonably priced, and tasty! Thanks Jonathan and Grey Goat!

Holy moly, what a discovery. Housed in the old dive bar "Libby's", this diamond in the rough just shines. Focused on local Johnathon has procured artisans, foodies and local farmers and bee keepers to share with all that arrive, four legged friends as well. Our dog Stitch made quick friends. Today's adventuresome cocktails and meal offerings were creative and satiating. A winter squall, (tequila, coconut milk whole cranberry) was over the top delicious and my elderberry cosmo served up and generous rocked me in my seat. A flight of deviled eggs featured traditional, a goat cheese and walnut and a savory blueberry. Shut the front door........not in my wildest dreams, but these were reason enough to return, as flavors change with what he can get. A wonderful BLT was exactly that, on fresh toasted sourdough, and I don't know how he made the tomato taste like summer, but again, delicious. Check the website for everything from cooking classes to candle making or create your own limoncello.
