The Crafty Goat in Colchester

Lovely farm owners are lovely milk ,cheese,eggs,meat all tastes amazing and love to say hello to all the animals 😊🐐🐑🐖🐕🦃🐓🐎🐹

100% Recommend! I'm not one to leave reviews but this one deserves one! I have been searching for a while for quality Goats milk for my toddlers as I've recently been enlightened of the benefits of Raw Milk. With the world the way it is and the garbage they are selling in supermarkets, I had a huge amount of questions which were answered in detail. They are clearly big on the care and welfare of their animals which I love. I also ordered some Goats Butter, fresh Lamb & Goat Meat which all look super fresh. I had my order delivered which came packaged well with ice packs so everything was still chilled and fresh. Amazing company. If you're looking for a trustworthy farm that produces quality then this it it! Thank you so much!

I have been using the Crafty Goat for a year now for regular supply of raw goats milk. A super friendly, efficient and all round excellent service. The milk is very nice and helps me with my IBD, an absolute staple of my diet. Would highly recommend, 5 stars +++😀

The best place for all looking for Raw Goat Milk or goats milk related products, goat meat, duck eggs, Grass reared lamb, or goat milk ice cream

Love this farm. Have been using it for about 12 years. Outstanding produce and really lovely owners.

I glad I found a place from where I can buy raw goat milk. Thank you 🙏

The guys that run this lovely farm are so genuine and down to earth.. thourally recommend

Super cool! Extra fast! Reasonably priced!!

El helado es cremoso, su casero. Preciosa zona de estar., los niños pueden echar un vistazo a la pequeña cantidad de animales aquí, aunque sólo unos pocos no es un zoológico, haciendo una visita agradable para toda la familia. También tienen una pequeña zona de juegos para los niños más pequeños. Comida preciosa iluminación en oferta.

Lovely ice-cream and the staff were very friendly. We had sundaes which were very tasty. Animal experience was very limited though.

El día era caliente, así que no una búsqueda de Google para heladerías en la zona y llegó con este lugar. Fuera, un poco intranquilo sobre la perspectiva de cabras de helados. No dicen los adolescentes, no quieren perjuicio el veredicto! El edificio en sí parece una cafetería en la playa. Había varios helados, y nos complace descubrir hacían el cono pomposos de gofres. Probamos la de chocolate, tarta de limón, canela y una mezcla de sabores tarta de manzana berry entre nosotros. El adolescente declarado su helado de chocolate era extremadamente encantador que me alegro que no eran todos sabor leche de cabra, así que rompió la noticia a él y los hombros y se destacó por su veredicto que estaba delicioso. La señora nos permitió probar pistacho, que antes ninguno de nosotros habíamos intentado y todos convertidos. Así que tuvimos algunos más. Otro caballero volvió por unos segundos y otro aún preguntó acerca de comprar una bañera para llevar a casa, así que basta con que su momento muy encantador! Definitivamente volveré de nuevo y se lo recomendaremos a nuestros amigos.

Habiendo tenido un maravilloso helado el pasado fin seis de nosotros viajamos en Brentwood ayer a probar algunos más. Registrado en los mapas de Google que estaban abiertas. Llegamos alrededor de la 1:00 p.m. para encontrar cerrado: o (ningún cartel en la puerta para explicar por qué. Un viaje perdido. Intentaremos de nuevo pero se teléfono para asegurarse. Por favor, tenga la amabilidad de poner un cartel en su puerta.

Buscamos a tripadvisor por algún lugar parada de vuelta a casa en Kent de Great Yarmouth como los niños queríamos helado. El helado estaba delicioso, pero ojalá no ya tenía el desayuno ya que parecía increíble! Hay una pequeña zona para que jueguen los niños y nos encantó ver todos los animales.

Dulce y encantador lugarcito donde me detuve en el camino para comprar leche de Mersea cabra cruda y mantequilla (ninguno en el momento fui!) y queso. Pequeño y encantador lugar donde tuve un delicioso chocolate caliente con la leche y otras personas para el bajado de delicioso helado. Fuimos un domingo donde sólo había un miembro del personal, así que tuvimos que esperar un poco, pero ella era encantadora, con buenas habilidades de servicio al cliente. Muchos de los animales fuera y una tienda pequeña con todas casa peculiar pasteles caseros (hechos con leche de cabra) y actividades para los niños. Vale la pena una parada!

We went for breakfast and wernt disappointed , this is an amazing place with such a contribution to the local community is made by tying in the care farm philosophy with its other strands . we will certainly return and try the ice cream which looks lovely ,the staff commitment is excellent to providing a quality service and developing skills of their trainees

Ellie and Warren have clearly worked hard to make sure the Crafty Goat at the heart of their goat farm is welcoming. Their staff are knowledgeable and kind, serving hot and cold food including exquisite ice cream.

We love coming here for lunch - always order the chilli beef nachos and then try and stuff ourselves with as many scoops of their amazing ice cream as possible. Incredibly friendly staff and good quality food.

Vivimos a menos de una milla de distancia y a menudo visita la interesada cabra para el almuerzo, un café o un helado (a veces los tres en la misma visita). Nunca decepciona.

I had my first experience of goat today in the form of a curry and it is one of the nicest curries I have had,the crafty goat is a family run goat farm with a cafe and village post office,the owners are very welcoming and friendly and the cafe had a lovely atmosphere,I will most definitely be returning for another curry if you have never tried goat then this is the place to go. The menu also has baked potato's,sandwiches and nachos. The ice is made from goat milk and has 10 mouth watering flavours again some of the nicest ice cream I've had,I'm looking forward to my next visit already.

Visited today on our way back from a trip to the beach. This little cafe sells the most amazing goat ice cream in random flavours such as funofee crunch and honeymoon pie!! They also serve a range of teas and coffees as well as curried goat. The cafe also houses a little post office and Internet access. There are seating areas inside and out and the children were able to see the goats whilst eating their ice creams in the sunshine. The staff were cheerful and welcoming and very helpful. Will definitely be visiting again.

We called in for coffee and ice creams, and we're really pleased to find a quaint "multi-tasking" restaurant - shop. With its own post office, and snacks to be purchased, as well as fresh bread and eggs, we were impressed, there is even a small play area for the children. Very friendly service, very nice fresh flavoursome ice cream, which can be purchsed by the tub also, very happy we stopped and will visit again to sample some hot food

A somewhat counter-intuitive proposition perhaps? But how wrong. I had THE creamiest mango ice cream I've EVER had. It was simply sublime. We so enjoyed it (the boss had her standard chocolate - purely for comparative purposes I gather, & claimed she could taste something goat-ish in it. I couldn't in my more delicately flavoured mango, but hey! Her tastebuds are probably more finely tuned than my ex-smoker's ones) we decided to buy some Goat Meat so we (well, she) could try to copy the Goat Curry we had had elsewhere recently in Colchester, which was a really tasty change from the bog-standard get-it-anywhere chicken, ''meat'', or prawn on offer in most high st. Indian Restaurants (but I can't tell you where we got it, as I might have to shoot you!). Both were a touch pricy, but the ice-cream was well worth every penny. We've yet to process the meat. In future, if I get an ice-cream craving, that's where I'll be headed.

This is a beautiful icecream parlour, with friendly staff and great icecream. I thouroughly recommend this little place of magic to all.

Driving to Mersea Island we passed the sign for ice creams and called in our return. To be honest we thought it was closed as it was Sunday afternoon...but no open and served amazing ice cream.by a delightful lady.I would love to go back and try something savoury and another flavour!!

We have been there before just for ice cream and was not dissapointed. Today we went for lunch, the curry was great, so was the dessert :) Very reasonably priced, a great little gem.

My husband had driven past this farm a few times and seen the posters for the ice cream parlour. It specializes in goat produce, namely meat, milk, cheese and ice cream! We enjoyed a really good goat curry and a 10 scoop ice cream sundae between us! (Well it was a Birthday.) All good and delicious. We were the only 2 people in there for about an hour, however, by the time we left, the place was packed and that was on a very cold, wet, dull Saturday lunchtime. So don't know how busy it would get in good weather. Will go back again.
