I recently visited Detwiler's Farm Market and was thoroughly impressed. The store was clean,…read morewell-stocked, and full of fresh produce and groceries. I especially appreciated the variety of local vendors and products available throughout the market. I also stopped by the deli and tried both the meatball sub and Italian sub, and they did not disappoint. The portions were generous, flavorful, and incredibly filling. The fresh lemonades were a great addition as well. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the Detwiler's cookies were another highlight of the visit. Overall, it was a fantastic shopping experience, and I've officially become a fan. I'll definitely be back!

This is a different type of grocery store,it feels more like a mix between a Sam's / Costco and…read moreWhole Foods all combined in to one store. The building it self is pretty large and wasn't expecting to walk in to a store with so much to see and samples in every corner you turn plus a bakery with danish and croissants sold in singles or packs,everything in the bakery looked delicious! There is a lot of product here you probably won't find in other areas of Florida but you can also find a lot of the same stuff at Publix. When I came to this store on a Tuesday afternoon there was a lot of people shopping here. They lay out is the same as most stores but what is unique is the bakery is to the left when you walk in and the bakery offers a lot of pastries like danish and croissants in their case for single purchases and also already packed. I had never visit this specific chain store and after doing some research I out these stores are only in Manatee and Sarasota county's. Very unique store with some different varieties but also keep and eye on some items , I wouldn't buy cleaning products here or body care items as those can be found for a better price at Publix and often BOGO but some other items like candy's in packaging toward the produce área was interesting they also offer a wide variety of cut fruit. Beware if you don't like seafood the smell starts to sneak on you as soon as you get to the produce área and it's pretty strong. Costumer service here doesn't come close to like at Publix but overall a store to look at if you are near one in any of the the two county's they are in. Four stars,why? because of the strong odor of fish and I felt like the store didnt have enough space for costumers to get around ,to many displays of products in the middle off the aisle.

They also have an ice cream shop right at the front of the store (it was delish). When we went, they had steak, cheese, ham and cheese croissant, and cookie samples. My favorite was the Red Dragon cheese (w/mustard and ale). I havent been able to find it elsewhere. The ham and cheese croissant was so good that we bought 4 of them. I also got the clam chowder, and it was honestly one of the best soups I've ever had. we sat at the tables in the front to eat it, and it was so good we went back and got seconds. We checked out the deli too, where you can build your own sandwich or order from the hot food section. They had fried chicken, ribs, mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and more. I was talking with one of the ladies working there, i mentioned it was my first time visiting since i was just in town visiting family; she was so sweet and gave me, my niece, and my nephews a chicken tender EACH to try. super nice of her to do that. we ended up getting the potato wedges too, and they were so good we finished them before we even got home. I wish there was a Detwiler's in Virginia. I'd probably be there every week...

If you like being treated as though you're nothing during check out, this is the place for you…read more I've shopped here several times, only because it's the closest "health food store" and saves me an extra 30 minutes. They had growing pains at the start but for a while, really seemed to step it up. Not so much now. The produce selection is all right but expensive, especially if you're looking for organic. Store is clean and well lit. What continues to bother me is the spotty service. If you get someone on the right day at the right moment, they're helpful and friendly. If not, rude, moody, dismissive. This is not a one time occurrence, either. It's unlike anything I've experienced at a Sprouts anywhere else in the country, and I've shopped in their stores in California, Washington, Tennessee with regularity. I can only put this down to sloppy management. As a for instance, on checkout I had only one bag with me, and asked that my cold foods be placed in it because I had an hour's drive home and would put them in a cooler. There were enough groceries for four bags, including mine, but without bothering to make eye contact the checker asked if I wanted him to stuff it all in the one tiny Publix bag. I said no, so he put the cold things in there, then loaded two more bags, one with all my canned and bottled goods. I'm clearly not young, but when I said "I won't be able to lift that!" he said the apples would have made it heavier, so he'd bagged them with other things. No asking me if I wanted help loading the car. No offering another bag. No smile. One short eye contact after a direct question. The rotisserie chicken is among the saltiest I've ever had, which for a health conscious store is not great. Someone either isn't over-seeing the brining or leaving the chickens in the brine too long, because it's basically inedible. I'd take it back but for the lengthy drive; the gas would probably eat up my savings. I keep trying this Sprouts in the hope that they've become consistent, but they're not. In short, if you have a health-conscious store alternative - even a TJ's would be better - shop there.

I don't usually take the time to write reviews, but this experience felt worth sharing…read more I recently returned a package of wedding cookies that I had purchased about a week prior because they were stale--and not cheap, either. I didn't have the receipt, which I understand can complicate things, but the way the situation was handled felt unnecessarily uncomfortable and honestly a bit degrading. Instead of a simple, respectful resolution, it felt like I was being treated with suspicion over something minor. I wasn't even looking for cash back--I fully intended to turn around and spend the money in the store--but the lack of basic customer care really stood out. The overall interaction left a bad impression, and unfortunately, it reflects the general vibe I've experienced in multiple locations. It often feels impersonal and overpriced, with customer service that doesn't match the premium prices. Speaking of prices, they are consistently much higher than other local options. The only time shopping here feels reasonable is during buy-one-get-one deals, and that shouldn't be the only way customers feel like they're getting value. This experience was disappointing enough that I don't plan on returning. I hope the company takes a closer look at how customers are treated, especially in situations like this where a little understanding and respect would go a long way.

A couple of weeks ago my wife and I rediscovered that and bought a very good sandwich from a Publix close to our home. Last night we were in Bradenton and decided to grab another Publix sandwich, so we stopped in this store along Cortez Rd. It was late, just after 9pm, and we were happy to see the deli was still open. They had a special for $2 off their Italian sandwich, so that's what we got. What a great sandwich and a great experience. After a long day of work, I would have expected our sandwich maker to be tired and just going through the motions, and that was so not the case. She was attentive and funny as we joked around. The sandwich she made was very good once we got it home, my photo only shows half, my wife took the other half. All the sandwich components were good from bread to meats to toppings to the mayo and sub sauce.

We stopped in immediately and grabbed some of my favs for the week the Cranberry Orange muffins, the premade Cesar salad and I also tried a spinach salad with balsamic dressing topped with gorgeous berries too! I just love this place everything from the lighting to the cleanliness and organization of their stores makes me happy lol! They are very consistent across locations which I appreciate the muffins, salads and dressings tasted the same and just as fresh as my fresh market back home. Even my kiddo ate half of the spinach salad and loved it. After we ate the first one she was asking to go back for another one!! TFM is always a win in my book. Also, if you haven't tried their broccoli salad or their twice baked potatoes you are severely missing out they are so so good!!! The cooked ribs are really tasty also we love grabbing them for a quick dinner!

They have a butchers counter if you can call it that. I think they mostly get in slabs of meat that they just cut up into steaks. But it sure beats most grocery stores nowadays. But be prepared to pay 50 to 100% more than you would pay at a grocery store and significantly more than you would pay at Costco or Sam's Club. These stores are a lot smaller than you might see at a Publix or Kroger, so of course their selection is small smaller. One nice thing is you can find employees around the store who are willing to help you out. I'll give an example. Choice quality ribeye on sale for $23 a pound. I think the cheapest dozen eggs I saw was seven dollars. The same eggs you'll find it most grocery stores nowadays for about 2.5 or 3 dollars. The smaller size and fewer customers does make getting around the store quick quicker and checking out a little bit quicker. If you need help, they will generally have help available.
