    Clydesdale

    What a fun afternoon! To my surprise, Grant's Farm does not charge admission. What they do charge for is parking. $27. Yikes. If possible, prepay online for $18. And, don't worry, there are plenty of things to spend money on: personal tours, food and drink, feed for the animals (not the horses), trinkets, camel rides...you know the routine. Once parked, you need to decide on where to visit first. There are the stables on one side of the parking lot and the deer park tram on the opposite end. We started with the stables. The stable itself is beautiful - pristine. Peaceful even. There were 4 of the gorgeous Clydesdale "big boys" there when we visited. All but one were 3 years old - huge, and not yet full grown. You may pet them though signs warn of the possibility of biting (the horses biting you, not you biting the horses!) I saw a caretaker scratching a horse behind his ears. I tried it and that big guy about melted right there. I wouldn't call it magical but it was pretty darn neat. We then walked across the parking to catch the tram ride through the deer park (many more animals besides just deer) , we arrived at the Tier Garden. Here, you will find animal/bird shows (just go in without expectation), animals to pet and feed, camel rides and free beer. WHAT?? Yes, 2 free Budweiser products for those over 21. There is plenty of food for purchase too. (Skip the soft pretzel. Calling it "soft" was false advertising.) We spent about 2 hours here but you can spend as much or as little time as you want. Grant's Farm is a must see when visiting STL. Good luck finding a better deal - $27 for a fun afternoon for 4 adults - heck, just the free beer was worth it. And having a Clydesdale melt in my hands was absolutely priceless..

    The Bavarian square with food, some stables, restrooms, bandstand.

    Wonderful experience. The little tram ride takes you through the property where you see lots of free roaming animals. You learn about the property and the history of it. Once the tram stops, there is lots to see. The goat pen was full of goats which you can feed. Then there are chickens, rabbits, alpacas, camels, cows, and a lot of other animals you can visit. Of course, there are the Clydesdale horses that you can get up close to. They are huge!! Great experience for any age.

    What a fun Holiday Drive thru!!!! Highly recommend!!! I bet the walk thru is fun for families as well!

    Grant's Farm delivers every single time. It's one of those places that somehow nails all-ages fun without feeling cheesy. The animal interactions are a blast, the band/DJ always seems to get people up and dancing, and the drink samples are shockingly generous. The one downsides? Parking is very pricey. Also, they shut the sample station down way too early. They stop pouring a full 30 minutes before the farm closes, and if you happen to be on that last train ride in, don't bother rushing to get your sample. By the time you get to the sampling area, it'll already be closed. It's frustrating, especially because everything else runs so smoothly. Overall: absolutely worth visiting, just time your samples wisely & plan ahead for parking!

    My daughter, granddaughter and I went here on a Saturday at 3:45. They close at 5:00! Grant's Farm is free but then they hit you with $27.00 twenty-seven for parking!!! W H A T?! The tram had closed for the day that drives you around the farm which we had been informed - they still had the tram that takes you to the petting zoo area and restaurant. Be prepared to pay more money if you want to feed the animals - $3.00 for the goats and birds and $10 for a camel ride and photo. An hour was plenty of time for our 18 month old. Plan ahead if you want to see the entire Farm, arrive early and bring money.

    Still always a good time whenever I'm at grants farm. I love how they have it decorated for Halloween. Wish i would've came later in the evening to experience the theatrics. Definitely will come around the holiday time to see those lights. Also, all the times I've came to Grants Farm and I never go see the Clydesdales, to see them today, had me in such Amazement!! Such beautiful Horses!!!

    We tends to go here once a year or so. We went here today and the weather was prefect since most of the animals were out. The train ride was great. The kids were able to enjoy this place with feeding the goats and ice cream. There were also carousel rides. For the adults who like beers, there were free beers from anheuser Busch. There were some food places with other drinks for purchase as well.

    Me and my family have been going to grants farm for years but tonight was a horrible experience. We paid for our parking but once we got into the park (still daylight) there were no horses out nor could you go see them in the stalls. To do anything we had to pay $77 for everyone but it was not explained what the $77 was for. We assumed it was to see more animals or maybe even the horses but we were wrong. All it was, was a loud crowded drone light show that once we got to we could not leave. Me and my sister both have auditory processing disorder which makes it difficult in loud crowded spaces and when we went to guest services they refused to let anyone leave, including me and my sister. In my opinion being charged $27 for parking and $77 for a light show we weren't aware we were paying for is absolutely ridiculous. Grants farm should be ashamed at not only the stress on my family but the stress on me and my 11 year old disabled sister. Our disabilities should be taken more seriously.

    We love Grant's Farm! Parking is available for a fee. The trolley ride is our favorite part! This time we got to see all the Halloween decorations up! So much to do with baby goat petting areas, a large carousel, birds, camels, rabbits, deer+ more! The free beer/choice of alcohol at the end is a plus for the parents! Good food too. Handicap & stroller accessible.

    One of the best family destinations i've visited,very well organized from parking the staff are very nice and friendly,they even have a crossing guard.Inside are well taken care of animals,some roam around freely,we love feeding the goats,cows and horses,riding a camel is so fun also,there's so much to do in here,we also had the chance to meet and greet the clydesdales,and enjoyed free beer.

    Beautiful place! Easy to find shade. The employees were all so friendly and helpful. The shuttle and petting zoo were really interesting and fun. We went for Oktoberfest, and while we were a bit disappointed in the authenticity of the food, we had an amazing time enjoying all of the animals!

    Lexi M.

    Grants Farm is always a great time for the whole family! I feel like it's incredibly affordable when you factor in parking, the amount you can do in the farm, and the free drink vouchers. The tram ride in the beginning is so fun- love learning the history of the area. My daughter loves feeding the goats the most, and the carousel is always a hit. For the adults, the Biergarten is really nice. You can get food, beers, and relax in the shade with live music.

    Olivia N.

    love love love grants farm! grew up going with family and just took my boyfriend there after years of not going. all the staff is so friendly! tips and tricks: * admission is free but you have to pay for parking. it's $17 online and $25 in person * 21+? visit the hospitality bar to receive 2 free drinks per person * feeding the baby goats? if you have little ones or you don't want to get scratched up i would recommend wearing pants! the goats will destroy your legs trying to get to the milk

    Ask the Community - Grant's Farm

    Can I pay for parking with credit cards?

    They do take credit cards. It appears they only take cash because attendants stand outside wearing money apron with cash in hand, but if you give them a card, they'll go in to attendant shack and run it. It's how I usually pay. Have fun!

    This place was....interesting…read more I'll be honest, it popped up as a pumpkin patch. My sister just moved to the area and was looking for one close for her kiddos, and this was around the corner, so we decided to give it a try. To start, it was $10/person to get in, which wasn't really promoted. We've lived many different places and have never had to pay to get into a pumpkin patch, so that was a surprise. Kids were the same price, also a surprise. The property is pretty cool, they have some farm animals. They sold food to buy but half the animals you couldn't feed and the other half were already full from being fed so much. We assumed it was a regular petting zoo and bought some food before seeing it, so we ended up with leftover bags of food and no animals to feed. The hay ride only went once hourly so you basically had to wait around forever if you wanted to ride it. The maze was cool and the concept seemed really fun to find a message BUT the first word on the message was "God" and honestly, nowhere did they promote this farm as a religious-based experience. Lastly - the pumpkins. We came here for one reason. They don't even grow pumpkins on site, they ship them in, and they don't keep them stocked. I think we had like 20-30 pumpkins to choose from, if that, and they were picked over. We had a 4YO and a 6YO and they couldn't pick any of the pumpkins up, all the kid size ones were already sold. I feel like this could be a good spot for what it is, and if it was marketed as that - a Christian family fun farm experience. But, that's not what we had expected based on the marketing they had, so it was a bit of a disappointment for us.

There is a gorgeous garden, which is a photographers playground -- bees, beautiful butterflies and hummingbirds pollinating all around and enjoying the sweet nectar. Flowers everywhere -- it is so beautiful! It was super quiet as I walked around, it was just me and two hikers that went down to the little trail and back. This is such a wonderful play for kids! There are turkeys walking around loose, that just pass by, so used to humans, obviously. There are two pigs in a pen, a few goats chilling on their tables and a horse, two donkeys in the barn. Friendly, and curious if I had treats to give. (Which you can feed some of the animals, others have signs not too.) Groundhogs running around too but they do hide! Not scary at all. Lots of space for a shaded picnic lunch and a good sized play area for kids. It's well worth checking out. It is gorgeously maintained and the animals are beautiful, so very well taken care of. Just go, already -- It's good for the soul! :) Will definitely be back.

The zoo is much bigger than I expected, with plenty of exhibits to explore. The animal habitats also felt spacious, and the animals looked healthy, active, and well cared for. I also noticed that not every animal was on exhibit all the time, which I actually see as a positive. It means they have areas where they can get away from visitors and have some privacy, and I really appreciate that. The staff were wonderful too. Everyone I interacted with was friendly, helpful, and clearly cared about both the animals and the guests. My favorite exhibit was easily the penguins. You get incredibly close to them, and it's such a fun experience watching them waddle around, dive into the water, and zip past underwater like little torpedoes. I could have stood there for ages just watching them. The polar bears were another highlight. Seeing such massive animals swimming and roaming around up close is always impressive, and they had plenty of room to explore. There are so many different animals here that it's easy to spend most of the day wandering from exhibit to exhibit. It never felt rushed, and there was always something new around the corner. Overall, this is a fantastic zoo. Whether you're visiting St. Louis, looking for a family outing, or just want to spend a relaxing afternoon, it's an easy recommendation. I honestly can't believe a zoo of this quality is free.

It is an accredited zoo and the enclosures are very well maintained. Animals are normally visible, some shy, but that's to be expected. For a free zoo, the size is amazing. There's also tons to do- a train that goes around the zoo, a carousel, and even stingray feeding (my favorite). Food is OK- nothing crazy. Water stations are available and you are allowed to bring in your own food and drinks. Plenty of available restrooms and rest/seating areas all around the zoo. I adore this place. My family member has a membership so we get to ride the train for free. If you're in the city and you skip the zoo, you're seriously missing out!
