September 2026 Update. I am just updating my review with a new picture. I HAD to break out my phone and snap this shot as I was picking a few vegetables and was greeted with the most amazing and fresh and well displayed assortment of AWESOME FRESH PRODUCE!!! You would think it from a photo shoot or movie set? NOPE just a normal day at a Detwiler's Market. read more

The staff is so helpful, the other day I wanted their chocolate cake but I didn't see any and a sweet woman from the bakery said she could frost one for me and my cashier went to go get me a cart as well. Great lobster bisque, awesome tropical produce, sourdough and seafood department Wish they had more organic produce but they do have unpasteurized OJ which I like read more

Stopped here after leaving Casey Key for convenience, and it was a mistake. I'm used to thr Gulf Gate location. Although the one employee I dealt with was perfectly sweet, the store is gross. It's dirty, no price tags on the produce (what I stopped for), clientele is ROUGH trade and borderline scary, and just a note they dont do bowls or fresh sushi or any of the nice things we have at the Siesta Key location. Hard pass. read more

Detwiler's Farm Market - Farmers Market Near Me - Venice, Florida

Detwiler's has a great selection of grocery items including fresh meats & seafood, produce, baked goods, prepared to order foods and pre packaged items. The prices on most items are quite affordable and less than other stores. The aisles are neatly arranged and I found it easy to locate items I was looking for. During my visit to Florida, I think I ended up visiting about 4 times. During my visits, I purchased pre packaged peanut brittle, fresh baked cinnamon roll ($1.99), hand scooped ice cream (I believe a double scoop was $2.99), an acai bowl ($6.99) and a made fresh to order English muffin sandwich ($3.99). All of the staff was very friendly and didn't dilly dally. Everything was very good. I will definitely be visiting again when I'm in Florida. read more

The good: The ice cream here is very affordable. I got a fall seasonal flavor (pumpkin) and tried my kid's cotton candy ice cream. It had little crystal cotton candy chunks inside that melted in your mouth which was fun. They sell a lot of tropical fruits like sapote and passion fruit. The folks here were friendly. The bad: It was crowded and congested in the front fruit aisles. The interesting: There were so many free samples available to try at your leisure. I tried Apple chips and strawberry juice. read more

This is one of the coolest places I've ever shopped! Can't wait to move to the area and come back again frequently. From this fresh seafood, to the woman doing the cheese sampling a week ago last Friday-She was fabulous and so helpful in choosing my cheese and charcuterie selection for a trip to my friend's boat... I was over impressed. Everybody was friendly, kind, super-helpful and all of the customers were having a ball running around sampling food, etc. I also was looking for homemade hummus and somebody that was working to re-stock ended up saying "oh my gosh, we have some of that" and went in the back and got the last container. (Apparently they don't do homemade hummus, but they had a wide variety of other hummus available.) but the best part was I was looking for small pieces of celery and carrots, and there was a younger man working in produce who offered to go back and shop the celery for me. Because I was headed straight to the boat that was an incredibly kind gesture that made my spread that much easier to manage. That is over and above Service! Outstanding place outstanding service!! read more

This place is the amusement park of grocery stores. From the pineapple coring machine, to the boardwalk style ice cream stand, to potato chips from around the country, this place has an old school look and feel that is as comforting as it is practical. And they have durian with no signage; I guess if you know you know, and if you don't, don't ask... read more

Great selection. The Clark Road store in Sarasota has a much better layout and easier to move around there

I love going to Farmer Markets and Detwiler's is a great farmers market to visit. They have some really great produce, seafood and all sorts of items. I really enjoyed some of the items from the bakery. We got some really good cod from Detwiler's. They have a pineapple machine where it will slice your pineapple for you, but it wasn't working when I went to try it. We got some amazingly fresh fruit here. The watermelons were really fresh and delicious. read more

First I've always thought the store was not so clean. The bakery items are good but not good enough to demand thier prices. The deli is Boars Head and you get what you pay for. The parking lot is a joke , with parking spaces not large enough for today's cars. Aii in All a little overrated for a very tense shopping trip. read more

I really like this place,but I've had several bad experiences Im a retired chef,I buy many things at this market.Many times zi purchased Fresh ! fish this past Thursday they offered swordfish @$7.99 a pound ,very reasonable,got it home spent an hour on its preperation,came out beautiful BUTit was previously frozen and the te ture was destroyed .To the trash.another time salmon steaks, got them home and they Stunk.Make sure you smell and ask it was frozen before you buy.Also pork sausage,I remove it from it casings and it stunk.Ti the trash.I understand they discount but they buy DROPS(ITEMS NEAR EXPIRATION.Produce dosent hold more than a day or two. I'll continue to shop but I hope they wake up... read more

Too crowded, everyday! Prices fluctuate and so does the assortment of vegetables, meat and seafood.

I visited as I was told they had organic vegetables. I did not find that to be true. There was a very limited and I mean limited and the prices were no lower than Publix. Their meat and chicken were in no way grass fed or free of antibiotics. The one good thing I found was their Seafood Counter. I went once and did not return again. I continue to make the trip to Whole Foods in Sarasota. read more

The produce was fantastic, fresh, and there was such a wide variety! The prices were very good and I enjoyed the ambiance. It felt like stepping back in time. read more

Detwiler's Farm Market - These prices are amazing! - Farmers Market Near Me - Venice, Florida

I love shopping at Detwilers, no one beats the prices or the freshness!! I love the update that the Venice location has gotten, but I wont lie, I do still prefer the Clark Road location! read more

My favorite grocery store! Friendly people, a great selection, and a fun vibe with a real farm style feel! Love the fresh seafood and seasonal produce selection! Best place to buy flowers! Ice cream is the bomb, fresh squeezed pineapple juice, the list goes on! read more

Quality of products are just terrible. Berries are moldy like nearly always. Oranges are at the lowest grade (number 3), they spoil the next day. Bell pepper is always lowest grade and at an outrageous price. If products are on sale, they are usually spoiled or moldy. All meat and fish is previously frozen. Never fresh. Fish even smells bad. This is a business built to make highest profit from cheapest, low quality products. Store tries to quickly sell low quality products. The owner takes advantage of the fact that there aren't many markets in the area and a large misunderstanding of quality. Attitude of manager is unacceptable. read more

Fresh everything and their Amish selections are awesome. Meats, cheese, bakery items are prepped by Amish folks. AAA +

Their seafood is not fresh. Got some halibut from the farmers market on Saturday blackened it and it was delicious. Brought some halibut fillets from Detwiler's that they had on sale. It was etable but definitely not fresh. Guess the old saying That fresh fish is never cheap, and cheap fish is never fresh,holds true. Sorry to say never again. read more

The last few times I've bought grapefruits and pomelos, they have been extremely sour! Ugh. Terrible tasting. Please have your buyers taste these products before you purchase them. I usually buy three bags full of grapefruits and have been so disappointed lately. I guess I'll have to wait until the South Africa grapefruits come into season. They are always good. read more

Do not go here hungry I absolutely love this place. They have an enormous deli with meats and cheeses to die for and the fresh seafood and meats departments are amazing. The people who work there know where everything is and always have great suggestions. They also have ready made lobster rolls which I can't put in to words how yummy they are, and you can get ice cream cones or a shake! This is a well setup place and lots signs. read more

Great place. Good prices and fresh produce. Great selection too. Really enjoy the sample stations also.

Great place to shop. The variety of fresh vegetables and produce is amazing. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and willing to help.

Detwilers bought the furniture store next to it and just put in bigger vegetable bins, there are enough vegetables in the older part of the store. I'd thought they'd put in refrigerator sections like the Detwilers on Clark Rd. in Sarasota, which also has a huge aisle of cheese, a big deli, sushi and so many more options. The renovation is a great disappointment. The entrance is at the vegetable bins with no real aisle to get through which backs up as the aisle isn't wide enough. Poorly planned. read more

expect crowds, limited parking to accommodate high volume and Quality foods at reasonable prices

Great place to shop. Fresh produce. Fresh seafood. Great bakery. We always stop here when in Florida. Expect crowded narrow isles and full parking lot. read more

A marvelous place for fresh and seasonal food items. The high-quality items are at great prices. We'd enjoyed their fruits and vegetable offerings over a week's stay in Venice, Florida. This particular location was crowded, but not overly so. There's parking right in front; while you'll need to cruise an aisle, you will find spots available. They have samples of all kinds inside. There's a larger store near the Sarasota airport which other family members recommend. In addition to the foodstuffs, we'd enjoyed Cuban sandwiches prepared there, eaten at outside picnic tables. We envied the other sandwich choices too. We finished lunch with scrumptious ice cream, freshly scooped. We'll return next year and every year. read more

We got ground beef from here and both my spouse and I got food poisoning. Really quite awful. Could be a fluke but honestly, I'll never ever go here again. read more

Nice little farm market with lots of local produce and products. Cashier was super friendly and attentive. A bit pricey but at least it's quality instead of mass produced. Store is a bit cramped and getting in there is hard so be careful read more

Nice market area. It was before Memorial Day weekend, and we were able to purchase great tasting watermelons at a sale price. Perfect for our barbecue. read more

Good options but pricey. Produce didn't look that great to me at first. The PA Dutch stores up North seem better and cleaner read more

I shopped at detwilers in venice today I only picked up a dozen things and after getting home I looked at my receipt and I had purchased a 1/4 slice of small watermelon that was priced $3.14 I was charged $5.99 for jumbo seedless watermelon and a small bouquet of flowers that were priced $4.99 and charged $5.99 read more

Stop reading, get in your car, and get you but over to Detwiler's farm. I was simply amazed by this place. I'm used to shopping at ultra high end stores in Los Angeles. Well, it's not quite the premium experience, they do have literally every raw ingredient a chef would need to prepare the best meals. The selection of fresh products far surpassed that of even the largest grocery stores. As an added bonus, this place is inexpensive. Prices are on average 20-30% lower than comparable products at Publix. This is my new favorite store. I'm coming here for the fresh stuff and completing my shopping at the regular grocery. Pro Tip - go early - like 8AM early. read more

Try their own butterscotch peanutbutter. So good! Priced well, and only find online for more than twice the price! Expanded an entire store for produce. read more

This place was mobbed on a Wednesday afternoon. We enjoyed some great produce and the baked goods were phenomenal. C as not recommend this store enough. read more

This is best market in Florida! The staff is like family, the produce is so fresh, the pineapple corer is fantastic and so much fun to use. There's something on every aisle that's delightful and the gentleman at The fish market recommend this fish and told me exactly how to cook it! It was DELICIOUS!! read more

Great prices and great quality food! A bit of a mad house to navigate so bring your patience with you. The parking lot can also be filled with inattentive patrons, so use caution! read more

Absolutely love the store if you think it's pricey, you're paying for what you get top notch quality products cheesecakes out to die for a blueberry and strawberry tried both! Bought boneless ribeye steaks absolutely delicious tender tasty the fruit and produce were excellent quality. Seafood department was great. I'm going to miss the store when I go back north. read more

Just went to a Dewiler's Farm Markets in Venice. (Decided to try another location!) Same great items. Super helpful employees. It's a clean market with lots of deals. Very a-PEEL-ing deals. Picked up some ribs and hamburger meat and oodles of veggies. They had some fresh samples of: -filet mignon ( because of the spice rub) -crab dip, -fish dip -pretzels with mustard dip( it's so good) -veggie chips They have a variety of fresh baked goods. Amish baked goods. I'm a fan of bread and cookies. Tip*The rolls at the ice cream area are the most perfect ones for hotdogs. It's not the kind I've seen at the regular grocery store. It's sliced down the top ( not the sides.) Lots of 'sweet' deals. Even a 2 for $1.50 section. read more

Good selection of fresh and frozen fish and seafood as well as other grocery items. No wonder it's a popular spot. read more
