    Solid local store for produce and staples. We found a wide variety of fruits and vegetables - with friendly service.

    Seen this place because of the big sign on the sidewalk on my way to work. Finally had a chance to…read morestop in... Apparently everything is from local small farms around San Diego and possibly a few things owner made. A lot of items didn't have pricing which for me prevented me from buying more but I actually just went shopping elsewhere before stopping in so I would've bought more. The fruit and veggies are not all nice and shinny like at the grocery stores, these items look to be straight from a farm imo. Don't expect to find everything in perfect shape or that you don't have to look through the fruits or veggies and if you know, you know! Their items were a bit high but it's worth it when it comes to our struggling farmers!!! I'll buy more from them from here & out.

    We stop by The Fruit Stand every week for our fruit and vegetable run, and it has become a beloved…read morepart of our routine. They consistently carry some of the best-quality produce currently available from San Diego and the surrounding areas, thoughtfully curated with real care. Misses are rare, and when something isn't right, they always make it right. What really sets this place apart is the knowledgeable team. They can tell you not just what something is, but where it's from, why it's special, and even how best to prepare it if it's new to you. They know which watermelon varietals are sweetest (and why), which tomatoes are best for different uses, and how to guide you toward the best choice of the day. We also appreciate the simplicity of the space. It's clear the focus is on quality produce rather than unnecessary overhead or décor that doesn't add to flavor or nutrition. We come in knowing our weekly staples, and we always look forward to discovering a surprise treat or seasonal treasure to add to the basket. We recently lived in Spain for a year and deeply miss the fruterías found on every corner, places that genuinely support daily health and well-being. In the U.S., truly good produce can be harder to find, with so much emphasis on mass production and appearance over flavor and nutrition. The Fruit Stand comes as close as we've found to that European produce experience. We're grateful this place exists and grateful for the care they put into what they offer. Thank you for being here--and we'll see you next week.

    We were lured in by the sign that said "4 lbs of oranges for $1." After looking at it more closely,…read moremy husband decided not to get it. I did end up buying a bunch of items and ordered a fruit bowl from the stand inside. There was a bit of miscommunication about how to order. The person in the booth told me to order with the cashier. When I got to the cashier, she asked if I had already placed the order. I explained that the person at the booth directed me to her so I could order and pay. Meanwhile, another customer received their item and paid at the front, so it was a little confusing. I rushed through the store so I could get the fruit bowl started. I ordered the small #3 fruit bowl, but unfortunately most of the fruit in my bowl wasn't very sweet. On the positive side, the produce section was well stocked and prices seemed competitive. If we are in the area we would stop by again.

    I forgot I had written a review before. Today I came in and the cashier was sooo rude and so are…read morethe other women who work here. This unfortunately will be my last time. If someone is rude to their customers why would they expect people to return. Change your attitudes so people can feel valued and happy when they come here. And the guacamole container was already broken so when it fell it made no difference not did it make a mess. Also she bagged my items and I had two bags on me. I left with the plastic bag and she called me out on it. At least empty my items. Just very disgusting behavior.
