What Stu M doesn't like about Fainting Goat Gelato:
Service was funky. Gelato was unique. Not out of this world good (it's no Salt Straw or Rockwell's in the realms of iced, creamy goodness), but an interesting flavor to get your fix. Not really a chocolate guy, but the chocolate gelato was the best stuff here. All the other flavors tasted pretty similar. Hard to differentiate. Seemed a couple bucks overpriced for the underwhelming amount received. View all feedback. What Alan Varghese likes about Fainting Goat Gelato:
Reasonably good gelato with the unique goat milk gelato (slight earthy flavor) along with the classics. Decent prices, large portions. The staff on the day we visited seemed to be having a bad day though. View all feedback.

I absolutely adore the fruity sorbet flavors at this shop. They offered peach and blueberry pomegranate sorbet during my visit, and both flavors were delicious....

Nestled in Wallingford, Fainting Goat offers a charming experience with its rich and creamy gelato. Although the shop boasts unique flavors crafted from organic ingredients, some reviews note inconsistencies in service and occasional hygiene issues. Highlights include the decadent fudge and lemon grisbi, complemented by a cozy atmosphere filled with art for sale. While some customers have encountered less-than-friendly staff and mixed experiences with flavors, many appreciate the generous portions and the delightful option of waffle cones. Overall, this cute gelato shop is worth a visit — just mind the occasional pitfalls.
