Fugate's has been a cute, trendy beach store for many years that carry high end merchandise, but they have started selling cheap and trashy political trumps shirts, trump hats, trump towels and tastiest stupid bobble head, shot glass crap. So, way to lower the IQ and nice beach vibe and bring down property value by becoming a trump store. So stupid. I gave 5 stars so you dummys might read it.

Fortunately, I recently met Venecia of Footprints in the Sand Shoe Gallery at a Chamber event. She carries the top fashion brands from Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Israel, and Hawaii. Venecia provides good, old-fashioned style customer service, taking the time to be sure the shoe is a perfect fit for your foot. Shoe brands she offers include Merrell, Avanti, Spring Step, Aetrex, Fantasy Sandals, Eric Michael, Italian Shoemakers, Island Slipper, Ethem, and Naot. Additionally, she has quality leather handbags, wallets, belts, and hats made from raffia and sea grass. Her prices are reasonable and her customer service is remarkable.

I just bought a pair of beautiful quality sandals in this small but charming hidden store,…read more "Footprints In The Sand Shoe Gallery" in Punta Gorda,. This unexpected gem of a store carries quality international brands known for style with comfort. You will not see the shoes you buy here on every other woman walking down the street. More likely you will be stopped and asked where you found your shoes. And although this is a small establishment, prices were as good or better than the on-line prices for the same brands. Selections ranged from about $40 to $150 dollars depending on style and material. I like genuine leather shoes and was not disappointed by the selection. You are greeted and attended by the owner, Venecia Demeck, who graciously provides the kind of service that makes you feel like a much valued long-time customer. She even offered to place custom orders for me for my favorite brand. Venecia, while new to Punta Gorda is an experienced shoe gallery owner who unfortunately lost her well-established store in Matlacha to Hurricane Ian. "Footprints In The Sand" also carries sun hats, leather purses and canvas totes at prices that are surprisingly much lower than what we've been forced to expect. This little store is a treasure for Punta Gorda and customers looking for quality, value and style without the need to go elsewhere or pay touristy prices.

You need to make reservations ahead and you can also place your food order ahead of time as well. Lori and Tim , the owners , are warm and welcoming and sooo funny. I can't wait to return for trivia and live entertainment night. The bartender Ian was quite knowledgeable regarding the wines they offer. I was also very impressed when he refused to serve alcohol to a young lady without ID. Well done. The food was delicious and really compliments the wine. I honestly could go there every day. Kind of like a " Cheers" for wine. And if I have too much to drink I can just walk home. What more can you ask for?
