Fancy Fruit and Produce

If you were looking for massive amounts of fresh produce then this is the store for you. Primarily aimed at the Latin market. You could still find all of the fresh vegetables for salad and cooking that we normally use. And if you want to twisted up a little bit, try some of the things that you’ve never had before.
They also have a meat counter, and a small bakery in the store. If you are a very price conscious shopper, then you should give this location try.
Live life on the wild side.

This is a hidden gem if you’re looking for fresh fruit and ethnic food offerings.
Fancy Fruit and Produce is located at the end of an unassuming plaza that also has a Big Lots and a thrift store. When you walk in, it smells, well, like a Latin grocery store (if you have been to a Latin grocery store, you know what I’m taking about). It’s a comforting smell for those of us who grew up going to small ethnic stores, but may be «different» for those that are not used to this. Also, the interior seems a bit lack-​luster and a tad on the dirty side, but if you are able to move past these factors, you will not be disappointed! You will find the freshest produce and meat products in the area — sometimes even better than the local farmers’ markets. Also, they are very cheap! Time and time again (when they’re in season), I’ve been able to find avocados, plantains and fresh herbs that are far more appealing and more affordable than the big-​named grocery store that’s across the street from Fancy Fruit and Produce. Fresh produce that’s cheap — um, yes please!

I don’t want to give bad star here, but I want to complain about the cashier Myrna, the way she deals with clients is not nice.

If your trying to save money on your Fresh Produce and Meats then this is the place to go!

Some of the produce is a little more ripe than what you may find at popular grocery stores, but the prices are amazing. I have never seen anything rotten and if something is too ripe for your taste, just don’t buy that particular item here! That being said, I was going to purchase a bag of potatoes last time I was here and the smell coming from the potatoes was a little unsettling, so they aren’t perfect!
I have also purchased meat from here and their prices are better than what you will find at Walmart or Publix. I’ve never had a problem with the meat quality (although I’ve never bought chicken from here) and they have some meats that I haven’t found in other stores (pork belly for example). Some things aren’t cheaper here, like cheese and dairy, but it’s worth it to stop in for produce and meat. They also have many ethnic products that you may struggle to find at other stores. Overall, it’s one of the few grocery stores I frequent here in Orlando.

AMAZING prices on veggies, particularly peppers and tomatoes. They lose a star because on occasion, especially with the tomatoes, you’ll walk in and dig around and you can’t find a decent one in the bunch. However, you will ALWAYS find something else. And tofu at $ 1.39 is awesome. Also the selection of veggies and fresh herbs is very plentiful.
I’ve bought meat from here multiple times and when there is not good sales at the bigger grocery stores I will continue to. No, it’s not Publix quality, hence the price. But I’ve also never purchased rancid meat as some others have mentioned.
If you haven’t been here, go in and grab a basket at the door and fill it so full you start walking funny carrying it to the register, and I guarantee you’re going to pay under $ 20 for whatever you’re getting. Good times.

Fancy Fruit & Produce is about five minutes from where I live, and I was glad to discover it because the prices on produce are amazing. I haven’t had a problem finding fresh produce here. Now, I will say that there are days that I go and they are out of many things I want or it’s been picked over, but I simply ask when the next shipment will be in and return on that day. I’ve since learned what days they replenish the produce I eat, and I just go and shop those days. I also like the selection of dried legumes.
I’m a vegetarian who eats lots of fresh produce in my diet, so this place is a godsend. I spend about $ 15 a week here for what I’d spend $ 30 to $ 40 on in the other local supermarkets. I will definitely keep shopping here.

Paleo diet’s dream … if your lenient on the organic thing :/​The signs for the produce are basically all hand written so nothing is listed with much detail. That being said, they do have great prices & variety on the produce. The meat prices are pretty decent, however, the quality is mediocre. I love that they have things that you wouldn’t find at the average grocery store. I picked up some odd looking root vegetables for a stir fry later! I will have to notate the names on my next visit. Instantaneously forgetting them lol! Don’t expect to get everything your looking for in one stop because the selection passes the fruit and meat is space. Overall I appreciate this establishment enough to be a regular.

A vegetarians heaven! You can get practically everything you need at this one stop shop. Beans, vegetables, fresh fruit and even meat. As someone who tries to stick to a minimally processed/​mostly whole foods diet this place is amazing! You can get most everything you need for a healthy diet. And prices are good:) I love it and will be back plenty!

Meat (skirt steak) we bought looked great, we weren’t even planning to get any but it look wonderful so we did some shopping to make it at home. Produce is cheap and not all of it is great quality. I like that the portions are smaller with some items though to reduce waste.
Short story is the steak did not smell but tasted completely rancid, neither of us could eat it (and if I make it at home and it doesn’t smell I’ll usually eat anything). Very disappointed in the meat, particularly because it’s usually such a tasty dish. Might go back for certain herbs and thick-​skinned fruits.

I come to this location at least once a week. I’m a fan of their enormous spinach bags, they’re assortment of olives and they’re avocados are the best value I’ve ever come across in any food store. They have all sorts of different kind of fruits and vegetables, too. I love this place and I save a fortune shopping here.

I started shopping this year after focusing my diet on fresh fruits and vegetables.
They have a very large selection, and for the most part their prices are very competitive.
I have to be very careful when buying their produce. Freshness and quality is hit or miss. Sometimes they have excellent fresh vibrant options, other times half the inventory is already rotten still on the shelves.
When their produce is quality you can save yourself anywhere from $ 15-​$ 50 a week by buying here instead of a grocery store.
They have really well priced Florida honey.
It irks me when people refer to this place as a farmer’s market. This is NOT a farmer’s market, it’s a produce store. All of their produce comes from California, Mexico or South America. Sheesh.
Definitely worth a try — go in and assess quality for yourself.
They also have a kiosk inside the front door for buying/​selling gold. If you don’t make eye contact they’ll leave you alone.

This is an excellent location for fruits vegetables that you can’t really find in your run of the mill supermarkets. The prices are extremely competitive and you can’t go wrong.
This location is bigger than the Longwood location and has a nice refrigerated area for proteins (meats) that the Longwood location doesn’t have.
This store does have the «latin market» feel with a little perfume shack that also cells you the cell phone accessories if I remember and also a gold buyer. Too funny!!! But everyone is very respectful so if you politely decline any offers they are just as polite back to you.

Great Mom and Pop supermarket. Close to a Publix and Walmart to finish out the shopping list because this store is not a all in one store. The supermarket has good meats and produce for the cheap.

As many of the other reviews have already stated, this is a great place to get cheap fruit and produce. They have a wider selection of spanish foods (correction, fruits, veggies, cuts of meats) than our trusty Publix would hold.
I know Bravo and Sedanos may also carry these products as well, but if you live on this side of Semoran, the choices regarding spanish produce supermarkets really become slim pickings.
I choose to shop here because of the convenience to my home and to a publix so that my shopping is an all in one event, but because there are many times where I crave tropical fruits and avocados that almost always seem to be not ripe at Publix. Also, my holiday colombian food shopping list is usually more than adequately filled by solely shopping in here.
I’d suggest just venturing around in here someday, just so you can compare prices and see what they have in stock that may interest you. The meats are quite a steal of a price as well, if you’re looking at cooking in large quantities

I get some items at a much lower price such as green peppers are usually 3 for $ 1, lemons go 5 for a $ 1, culantro and cilantro are less pricey than at supermarkets. Some fruits look bruised up so take your time and find the ones which are better quality.

This is not all that great like some of this people say it is, the meats are not any cheaper then any where else as a matter of fact I saw steaks for $ 9 – 10 bucks so if the meat is supposed to be much cheaper here then this is a FAIL, also the produce are rotten, I noticed a lot of cantaloupes rotten with mold in the out side and it probably has been sitting there for a long time. It does not look like they rotate there fruits or switch them out frequently and I was there during the middle of the day on a Friday with a bunch of people there, if that is the case for the produce I can only imagine the meat has probably sat there for a while (chicken, meats, pork) I also notice the labels on the meats did not have pull out dates just simply price per weight, weight and final price meaning the meat (s) most like have been sitting there for a long time even though from a sing they have to claim there meats are «FRESH’ but how can that be prove if you don’t have dates on it.
Over all this place also has canned goods such as juices and beans and huge bags of rice, don’t get me wrong I am not here to just bash any business but also to give the positive and the is only a few things positive I can think of but not enough to make me want to shop here often. Positive thoughts about this business is, it feels alot like Miami in here and this business brings that Hispanic /​Miami feel to it when you walk in with all the different produce and products you can only find in Hispanic stores specially in Miami, the other good thing about this place is that you can find a lot of products you cant in other business such a fruits, and canned goods but I do not really trust places were the food even canned good that have dates has been sitting around and could be out of date.
Don’t get me wrong I am a big supported of Mom and Pop business and this is definitely one of them, I like the feeling of being in here and it reminds me of Miami business were everyone speaks Spanish and everyone that works there is Hispanic, the staff is friendly but the place is not very clean like at Publix or the produce are not fresh and flies roaming around the produce causing problems and even getting people sick, over all i rather stick with Publix. much cleaner stores and fresher produce including better looking meat at Publix and most important no fly’s around the store or produce and very friendly staff at Publix, the meat here at Fancy fruits and vegetables looks like it was not fresh and does not look as red as the one you find at Publix or other business. They also have a sign saying how they do not add «Hormones» or other things to there meats but I highly doubt it if you don’t pull that stuff everyday it will go bad and many of this business like to save money by keeping there meats on the shelf to sell for as long as possible. They do have a lot of meats ranging mostly in cuts for Hispanics but also for any one else and you can find some types of items such as pigs feet commonly eaten by Hispanic and other types of cuts.
They also have a small frozen and dairy section, nothing special just your usual Milk and eggs. The milk is not any cheaper then at other places at about $ 3.69 per gallon and they also have Hispanic yogurts (La Yogurt) and fruit flavored juices such as bananas and strawberry and Guayaba.
There canned section is quit extensive unlike at other Hispanic stores with a lot of Goya products and Malta and rice they also sell a few American products like Stove top and even seasonings and canned Octopus in oil or tomato sauce.
This place is worth checking out but not really worth spending much, nothing I went to crazy about the only thing I like that I cant find anywhere else near by were the Hispanic yogurts and juices plus in there frozen section frozen Hispanic foods from Goya.

Great place to get fruits and vegetables on the cheap! They also carry a varied selection of meats, but I found that the quality of the steak reflects the price you pay. You can also find a lot of different Latin American canned, frozen, and baked goods. You probably won’t be able to get all of your grocery shopping done here, but it’s a great way to save money on produce.

This place is great! Hard to find fruits and veggies for cheap. All the usual suspects are there too at WAY better prices than Publix. They also have meats and canned goods. I’m so happy they opened close to home, so I can save money on fresh foods.
