This adorable attraction is a fun stop to find the cutest little gifts possible, and at a surprisingly affordable price. The sweet and savory treats inside are very good, too! All the gifts are unique- even adults would adore receiving them. Of course, the goats on the roof are an irresistible reason to stop by, it is hilariously cute. Too fun not to peak a look while in the area.
We love going to this place whenever we go to the island. The grocery selection is decent and seems to be well priced. The other things they sell, toys and decorations, are always unique, but sometimes overpriced and cheaply made. It's still a lot of fun to see what they have though. There are other shops surrounding the main goat house that are hit and miss, some are cool and artistic, others sell junk. I hear the on site restaurants are excellent, but I haven't tried the ones there currently. It's a great place to take visiting friends or family, or to just visit on your own.
An incredible selection of international foods at surprisingly affordable prices. There's also sections with different than usual toys for kids, exotic decor, and beautiful household items. Fresh food is very fresh, and there's lots of selection from local farms and suppliers. Usually crowded, but seldom a long wait at either the deli counter, cafe, bakery or cashiers. DON'T stand right under the goats though - you may get "deposited" on! :)
Don't show up before 10! Most things were closed. Good place to stop to pick up snacks from the healthy grocery store or the produce store. Looked like a good donut shop with an interesting variety but we were there too early and had to leave before it opened. Very cute place to walk around with kids. Village feel to it. I will definitely stop by again. With and without kids.
This store is Europe in Canada! A must must go!
