Excellent pit stop for a fresh Florida orange.

Try brightening the lights (maybe replace the bulbs and the 40 year old yellowed covers) and investing in a lick of paint...someone to clean the rest rooms properly. None of this is an expensive fix. Fill your bins with fresh produce like you used to have. Our grand children were excited to the advertised see baby gators.... They saw one lonely little baby gator. Whomever owns this place needs to care a little more, or find an investor who does. The Florida Citrus center is a staple to Florida tourism and is still in a good location. You have nice staff and fun little gifts. Not everyone likes the vibe of Buc-ee's (40 miles away). There is no reason to let this iconic shop go the way of the old Florida road stands. #shellfactoryvibes

Lots of items with names on them but not unusual names or spellings like the kiddies. When we pulled in I thought we were going to get some kind of Florida orange slushie or the fruit itself but we didn't. Lots of shells, Disney t shirts and shelves of items you'd probably buy for someone and it'll end up in some 2 nd hand shelf. I did buy a rubber chameleon for Bud to scare his mom, a small orange bouncy ball, violets candy, tin of mints that says alligator poop. Nice diversion to stretch your legs as you pass through Florida.

A true taste of Old Florida! This shop has all things…read moreFlorida -- from bags of fresh citrus (oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines) to classic Florida candies, jams, alligator heads, claws, and even coconut heads. It's the perfect roadside stop for fun, nostalgic souvenirs and local treats. We picked up a bag of oranges and were pleasantly surprised by how sweet and juicy they were! The lady at the register was so kind, helpful, and accommodating -- real Southern hospitality. The place has that "Old Florida" charm, full of nostalgia and memories of childhood road trips. Definitely a fun stop for all ages and a great spot to experience a bit of vintage Florida flavor.

Stopped again on the way back and a different lady working was rude and dismissive, absolutely miserable.

I didn't bother- I knew she wouldn't care.

I believe they were piercing it although maybe they were giving her drugs? Either way I was disgusted at the idea of them touching my food item after that and mortified that staff would use their paid time on either endeavor. Those staff do not deserve their employment and I am unlikely to visit this location again. They couldn't even do whatever they were doing in the back room or the bathroom. I wanted to like the place but what the ?!

It's got quite a bit of space in there with a lot of fun little things to bring home! The employees were so nice and welcoming, even offering fresh squeezed orange juice to my little one and I! They had a couple little baby gators in their tank and has a cool little sign telling you that once they get bigger they're moved to a location that better suits their needs but it was cool for my daughter to be able to see a baby alligator and pick out some fun trinkets to take home. Definitely stop in if you're over by here, it's a cool little spot with something for everyone and the people are really nice and friendly!

He…read moreloves trying saltwater taffy from different states, so since I was in FL., I wanted to bring him some FL. saltwater taffy. They did have saltwater taffy, but when I looked at the packaging, it was actually from Milwaukee. I was like, "Uh, yeah, no." I wanted something that was actually from Florida! The person working there was helpful & took the time to assist me while I looked around. I also checked out some of the other items they had,& there was a nice variety of things to browse. Inside was pretty cool especially all the gator stuff. They had a lot of FL. themed souvenirs to look @ as well. The only downside was that I found the prices to be a little on the pricey side.It was worth stopping in to look around, but unfortunately, I didn't find the Florida saltwater taffy I was hoping to bring home for my nephew.

It's ok I'll be back and will update my review with my thoughts but for now I'll focus on "The Green Spot" which was open and one of the vendors I really wanted to check out (we love plants)! We met Jen the owner who was very sweet, friendly and welcoming. She let us try the daily lemonade flavors which were all quite unique, we all got our lemonades and omg I'm in love with the guava/lemonade topped with blueberries, rosemary and a pasta straw! It was super refreshing! We just moved to the area & it was great learning about the history of the shop and other surrounding facts. We bought some herbs and we'll be back to get plants once I've got time to tend to them as moves can be very hectic and I'm still getting settled. I'm bringing all our plant loving friends to this cute lil shop with a cool vibe that very much reminded me of Key West. Try their lemonades!

The Florida welcome center is a little more fun because they give out a free small cup of orange or grapefruit juice or both! The super friendly lady at the counter was more than happy to give Pro tip: guzzle down the grapefruit juice then chase with the orange juice for a sweet ending. Stop in for a bathroom break or to pick up some brochures about things to do and see in whatever area of Florida you are visiting. The Florida Welcome Center is a great stop for a break in the drive. It's a quick off and on ramp right off 95.

You have to drink it fast or get it straight to refrigeration so as to avoid botulism. It's worth it. Best OJ you will ever have. I'm also a big fan of the honeys and jams. They are only open seasonal, so get it while the getting is good. With that being said, I have to say my last stop here was somewhat unpleasant. I came in the store, so happy to be there, and was greeted by two people behind the counter. One was a younger woman, wearing a shirt that said she had an allergy to mornings. Lol. She smiled and was kind. However her counterpart was an older woman who treated me like I had done her wrong. It was so obvious that she didn't want to be there, or didn't want me to be there, that when we left, my boyfriend asked "Did you try to flirt with her husband or something?" I understand that life happens and we can't always be in a good mood, but as a former retailer her demeanor was unacceptable. The store would have been better off without her in it. (I suspect she is part ownership.) This is why I give 3 instead of 5 stars. If it wasn't for the OJ and the other staff member, I would have given them 1 star.
