Me and the boyf have been determined to buy all our fruit and veg from here because it's yummy and local and they're the only one I know of that accept Bristol pounds. We are starting to juice too and this would be costing a lot more if we were buying from a supermarket. There's something really satisfying and almost smug about buying really fresh, a little bit more grubby and wonky, and a whole lot more delicious produce from the greengrocers! They also do little extra treats like jam and chutney!

Here you'll find wonky carrots, dirty potatoes and odd shaped oranges; just how the come out of the ground (or tree) and how they should be. Gardeners Patch sell pretty much any standard fruit and veg you would want. You wont find too much international out of the ordinary, but you will find inspiration if you're trying to think of a meal to cook. The staff are really nice and very helpful. I asked lots of potato related questions: best for mashing, roasting etc and they were happy to help. I've by a weeks worth (2 bigs bags) of fruit and veg for less than £10 each time I go. They accept Bristol Pounds and 'Text to Pay'

I am wheat intolerant and found a great selection of delicious rye and spelt bread freshly baked.

The Fruit and Veg Stall is situated next to Ice Master and Rainbow Bargain, a huge home and garden…read morestore, which occupies the former Methodist Church where Wellfield Road meets Albany Road in Roath. It doesn't have an official name, and there are no published contact details for the place either. But this is of little consequence, the business has occupied this spot on Wellfield Road for as long as anyone can remember, and has been patronised by the locals in their hoards, as the pictures I've supplied bares testimony to... Being a licensed concession allows it to trade without need for an address, and as long as it is not taken beyond the boundaries of the licence agreement, it can be put anywhere where the owners wish to site the mobile stall. But, come rain or shine, you will find it in the same place, selling very reasonably priced perishables that are always incredibly fresh. They occasionally carry organic items, but are reliant on what's available at the suppliers, so they tend to stock goods that are in season that carry an affordable price tag. Nevertheless, they always have a good variety of fruit and veg on offer, even if one or two items are not always consistently available.

I used to hate these kinds of stores. I grew up in a family of people equal parts Splott, the docks…read moreand Trowbridge, so visiting these stalls was the done thing, as befits people from areas where community actually still exists. I'd be dragged to my grampy's favourite seller, whom he knew personally and from whom I always got a free apple. My dad would cart me around car boot sales, talking to sellers about what they've got and what's just come in and what's in season. I was made to carry potato sacks from these places with my nan. The huge range of produce which was always fruit and never chocolate, and their weird, braying voices always made me hate them as a child. As an adult though, I find myself drawn to these kinds of stalls because I have since become healthy, as adults are meant to be, and my desire for chocolate has decreased. I spent a year living just across the road from this stall, and it never failed to satisfy. Like all fruit stalls, the range can vary depending on the season and what he's been able to get hold of, but the prices and the range are fantastic and you get a wonderful sense of achievement from shopping here that Tesco and Morrison's just don't give you.

Located on Cowbridge Road East it's a great pit-stop for Canton residents who are looking for fresh produce. Items are displayed in crates either around the shop itself or out on the pavement on tables, and everything is loose so you can hand-pick exactly the pieces you want. Prices aren't bad either, and service is fine so if it's not busy you can be in and out in a few short minutes. The last time I was there I dropped in on my way past to grab an apple and only 30 seconds and 10p later I was on my way.

It's also ruddy cheap and jam packed with plenty of items to set you on your way to five a day. No pre-wrapped nonsense here, everything is open for a good old fashioned fondling. I have a confession to make. I have no idea what I'm looking for when I pick things up in a greengrocer, I just feel I have to pick up and put down at least three items before popping something in my basket. It's like a ritualistic dance of fruity consumption. Closer to Christmas they start to stock nuts and sugary things and I think they do Christmas trees too, but I can't really remember as we always use a plastic one. Canton Fruit Market is cheap, friendly and convenient.
