A Day in Micanopy!

in

One of my goals for 2021 is to take more Covid friendly day trips and continue to explore close to St. Augustine.. I’ve been looking to visit Micanopy for several years and finally was able to make it a reality. I met up with my mom and we spent the day antiquing and eating delicious bbq.

A few antique stores and boutiques to make note of:

  • Delectable Collectibles: she has one of the largest collections of cameos that I have ever seen. She also has a ton of Roseville Pottery

  • Lost Ark Antiques

  • Micanopy Trading Outpost

  • Smiley’s Antique Mall

  • Dakota Mercantile

Lunch Recommendations from the locals:

  • Pearl’s BBQ: it’s inside of a Marathon Gas station just down the main street. The mac & cheese was amazing!

  • Old Florida Cafe: known for Cubans and Reuben sandwiches

  • The Yearling: it’s over in Cross Creek and is definitely on our list to go back to once we have the vaccine and Covid is behind us.

My two finds for the day were this antique cameo ring from around 1915-1920 and this red wooden candelabra that was 50% off in a booth that was closing. It was definitely worth the hour and a half drive to explore with my mom. Little Fun Adventure approved!
