5 Stars all the way around. This is a fantastic location for a great lunch with friends. The atmosphere is very quaint, charming, relaxing, comfortable...I could go on. I am so glad a mutual friend recommended it to us.Our server explained that everything is made from fresh from scratch and that the chef has been with them for over 20 years.I started with a nice craft beer and a bowl of the Irish Whiskey Onion soup. The soup was very good although I used my knife to cut through some of the cheese and fried onions. My bride ordered a sangria and a mushroom burger. The savory chicken sandwich with fries was ordered by two of us and the Philly sandwich with fries was ordered as well.All of us thoroughly enjoyed our meal and we had no room for dessert. While our meal for two cost over $80, it is a bit on the pricey side if you decide to have 2 beers, a sangria, soup and 2 sandwiches. But it was worth it!This is a great place to dine. We dined on the main floor but you should check out the bar and lounge upstairs as well. Or outside. Just loved The Goblin!
3 people for lunch, 25 minutes for a ticket time. Ordered Cashew chicken came on a generic hamburger bun, French dip with "no onions", you guessed it came with onions, ruined the experience.Too bad, could have been

What? The Goblin Market? ABSOLUTELY!!! Go out of your way to stop by and try them! We had a phenomenal time! Stopped for lunch and seated on the second floor of a nice size dining room. Our server, Mohamed, was amazing - attentive, knowledgeable, creative, funny! The food was delicious! I want to call out the crab bisque - it is different from what I have tasted before - and it only elevated my experience! So freaking- good, I scraped the last drop out of the bowl. The ciabatta - don't miss it! The burgers - oh so good! Books on the walls give such an intelligent vibe... Courtyard seating, back yard tables... Beautifully decorated! I can't wait to return for dinner!

4 of us friends from The Oak Run Community took a bus trip to Mount Dora for shopping, to see the area and have lunch, of course. After walking and walking by the endless sales tents and stores in Mount Dora we found a gem of a place for lunch at Goblin Market. This restaurant was obviously renovated from a former house, in itself...it is charming, beautifully decorated and aesthetically pleasing. There are outside tables, tables on the main floor and tables up stairs where we were seated. The stairs are a wee bit steep but there are railings to use for safety. Bairn, our server, was friendly, efficient, polite and gave us great service with a smile. I ordered a Savoury Chicken Sandwich with home-made chips...yummy! The 4 of us were more than satisfied with this choice to have our lunch.

If you decide to go to the Goblin Market, expect excellent food and service. The cauliflower appetizer and the chocolate desserts are just two of my favorites. If you enjoy outdoor seating, the back patio is adorable and private.

Wow what a neat place. Off an alley with string lights, check. Interior is like a private library, check. Great server, thanks Britton! Great food, check. Full bar, check. It’s on the pricy side but it’s worth it since it’s a great value. I liked the upstairs bar area because of the high ceilings. Basically the opposite of a chain restaurant. We went when they first opened for weekday lunch and got right in. Dinner is not so easy I hear to get in.
We were here 5 years ago..glad to see the excellent standards still apply..food was exquisite.we were upstairs in the bar area ..comfortable ambience and superb service...highly recommend!

I order French Onion soup all over the US. Goblin's is the best bar none! They finally brought back my favorite lunch item - Gourmet Toasted Cheese! Tillamook smoked cheddar, white cheddar, Sharp cheddar, bacon, caramelized onions, tomato-andouille jam, on toasted sourdough... amazing. Service was super! Thanks
