From a Coffee Patio to Midtown Tallahassee's Locally Owned Restaurants
A guided food walk through Midtown Tallahassee's local restaurants, with a chance to meet the people who run them.
This walk is built around the people who cook in Midtown Tallahassee. The group moves between several locally owned restaurants, samples dishes at each, and gets a chance to meet the chef or owner at every stop.
A reviewer in June 2026 put it simply: "At each restaurant we met either the chef or the owner." Between stops, the talk turns to Tallahassee's history and the stories behind Midtown's food.
Shared walks run on Wednesday at 6:00 PM, Saturday at 10:00 AM and Sunday at 12:00 PM, with no more than 10 travelers on each one. Advance bookings on Viator currently list dates starting February 25, 2027. Check the calendar below for open departures before planning your weekend.
Tallahassee Food Walking Tour: Taste Local Flavors and CultureThree-hour guided walk through Midtown with tastings at several locally owned restaurants. From USD 60 per person.www.viator.comA Full Meal, One Stop at a Time
Treat this walk as lunch or dinner. The operator describes the tastings as running from starters through main courses to dessert, and says together they add up to a full meal.
The listing does not name the restaurants, and it mentions customizable tours based on participant preferences. Food allergies and dietary restrictions are asked about at booking. Past groups have sat down at Liberty Bar & Restaurant, which shares the 1307 North Monroe Street address with the meeting point. Anything you order beyond the tastings is yours to pay for.
Lakisha and Keith's Midtown
The company, A Walking Foodie Tour Tally, is run by Lakisha and Keith, a Tallahassee couple married in 2003 who describe themselves as avid foodies. Recent guest reviews name the two of them as the hosts who met the group at Lucky Goat.
Locals book it too. One reviewer who had lived in Tallahassee for almost 16 years wrote in March 2026 that the walk led to places they would never have found on their own.
