Freshmart - Grocery Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

This store sells fruits and vegetables that are not fresh and wont honor the exchange ,because they said once you take it out of the store there is no change.They should inspect all the fruit before they sell it.I bought a Guanabana that never mature ,i pay $9.70 for a small one that usually cost $6 in the supermarket.Even though i had the receipt they refused to credit me or exchange it.They are NOT looking after your satisfaction .just making as much money as they can without responding for their quality if the products. I don't recommend Freshmart. read more

Freshmart - Local kombucha selection - Grocery Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

Organic options and service was low quality. You would think organic options are available, but there are none. I hope they improve, but for those who want organic as a must they are not an option. Atmosphere or ambience not great at all read more

I bought a small jar of yogurt. Eight dollars for about 10 ounces! when I got home, I opened it, but it was not edible. It already gone bad, even though the expiration date was 10 days away. Two days later, on my next shopping trip, I brought the jar and the receipt.The manager refused to refund the cost say, how did she know I didn't leave the jar out of the refrigerator for the last two days. Basically saying that I was lying. I have lived in the area for 3 years now and Freshmart was my go to grocery store. I spent $600-$700 a month there. Congratulations Freshmart, you might have saved a couple of dollars refusing the return. And you definitely lost one of your best customers. I have spent years in the field of business development, and the level of customer service on the island is appalling From Acueductos and Luma, to real estate agents, and insurance gents, and dance instructors who don't return emails and phone messages. Business is about relationships. Too often, what customers experience from proprietors here is disdain. I hope the owners of Freshmart learn to appreciate the customers they have remaining. read more

My go-to place on Ashford for kefir, sparkling water, plant based crackers, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, kimchi, and other little snacks. The service is top notch and the workers are friendly. read more

Small grocery, I dont understand why they dont sell Puerto Rican produce or meats. Dont we have good farmers here! Everything is from the states gross. Also, the frozen section is not very good when it comes to meats very expensive. read more

It's a nice market, on par with whole foods on the mainland but twice the price because the items need to be imported here. I picked up a few snacks but had actually come in for the deli. Other Yelpers have left such great reviews of the sandwiches they make, I was really looking forward to the vegan Ruben sandwich. Unfortunately when I went in today (10/28/22) THE DELI WAS CLOSED INDEFINITELY FOR RENOVATIONS. This is a lovely market, but had I known that the deli was closed, I would not have made the trip. read more

Woah!! I love this supermarket!! was so surprise with the amount of vegan options they have. From grocery items to hot meals located on 2nd floor. My first visit, I got the Papaya Delight smoothie, tofu scramble, and vegan reuben sandwich. Omg they were sooooo yummy!! So yummy that me and Bae ordered some to eat on our plane ride back to New York. Would probably go back fo Puerto Rico just for those Reuben sandwich. I am only upset that I found this place on our last day. I didn't have enough time to enjoy its full potential. They have so many vegan options. Vegan brands and flavors that I haven't even seen in New York. Wish I could have stayed longer. read more

I shopped downstairs and was surprised by the reasonable prices. Products are limited but of good quality. Then I ate upstairs and enjoyed a vegan quinoa aoili burger with potato wedges. I ordered sweet potato fries but was served white potatoes. Nonetheless, they were very well seasoned. I enjoyed the fries more than the burger. The burger was better once I added spicy ketchup. Burger and fries cost me $8 and change. Great price! Nice place, with cute window seating overlooking Asheford so one could people watch while eating. I went back several days later and ordered the vegan Reuben with multigrain bread and baked sweet potato fries. This time I got sweet potatoes and they were good. The Reuben was fine, a little dry, not memorable but not bad. I still recommend this place. read more

I am writing this review after a couple of visits in the same week. First try - coffee, water, and a turkey sandwich with home fries. For being the only customers, the order took what felt like a long time. To make things interesting, my home fries came out so cold that I could not eat them. The turkey sandwich was okay and the coffee was really good. Second try - coffee, water, and avocado toast. Bingo! While I could have probably enjoyed a larger portion (than a single small piece of wheat bread), it was good. read more

This reminds me of going into a Whole Foods. It is smaller of course, but the way the store is laid out and the bright colors of the fresh fruits and veggies. Of course the pricing also makes me think of Whole Foods as well. If you are looking for natural food items, this is the place to go. It has a decent selection of healthy food items. There is parking behind the store which makes it easy if you are arriving by car. By foot, this is a great location near all the hotels. read more

Theres so much fresh fruit here! It's pretty much a small grocery store. There's AC and the employees here are very nice! We stopped by to get some sandwiches (already prepped and in a box). The checkout process was quick! You can definitely find locals and tourists shop here. Overall rating: 10/10 read more

Small market that I strolled into. They have many unique special dietary items like a health food store or excuse me more like a Whole Foods but an Express version. Boy oh boy they have similar price tags like "whole check" as well. I thought it was a gem to have a market like this available, and was truly surprised I found one. It helps that the location is amongst some tourist traffic. So weather your in a hotel or renting an apartment you should be able to find natural, vegan and gluten free alternatives here. There is a cafe counter located upstairs with an array of items on the menu salads, sandwiches, smoothies and fresh juices. It won't hurt to take a peak read more

Freshmart - Sunshine: fresh Juice made of; carrot, pineapple, orange, & ginger ($3.99) - Grocery Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

This place is cool. Tons of organic and healthy products and the closest thing to finding the niche items you might pick up at a Whole Foods or other high-end grocery store. They can pack quite a bit in this small store, but nicely located for tourists traveling through. read more

We stayed in Old San Juan and were looking for a place to buy groceries. This was within walking distance. They have the basics. The produce selection was rather small. We wanted fresh fruits and most of it was already cut and packaged. However, they had wines and spirits. We bought premade burgers and snacks. If you want produce, you may want to go to a larger market. read more

I love freshmart! Been staying in Puerto Rico on vacation for the past week and a half and I come here at least once a day and up to 3-4 times a day. I start my mornings here for breakfast/lunch and every once in awhile dinner too! Staff are friendly and the upstairs is where you can get breakfast/lunch/dinner. Super yummy food that is also prepared healthier for you. Cost of hot foods is pretty good and portions are good. Downstairs is where you can shop for groceries/Acai bowls/gelato. Overall food/staff/prices are great and in a prime location of Condado. Only wish I had known about their store/loyalty card because my sisters and I went here everyday for a week and a half. Going to miss this store so much when I leave back for California in one more day :( , will definitely be back here in the future ! read more

Love this marketplace!!! What a little gem for anyone looking for a delicious vegan meal or healthy snacks! Extremely reasonably priced also..you can get a vegan pizza for $10 and a healthy pressed juice for $3.50. Sooooo reasonable, highly recommend! read more

This establishment is just down the street from my hotel. They are open late, so it's a total life saver. This grocery reminds me of a mini Trader Joe's or Whole Food Store, so some of the items are a little more expensive. However, it's worth it since you can find organic food, gluten free goods, vegan cheeses, almond milk, raw stevia and slimming teas. Nice selection of protein shakes, and they have a small deli that is very cheap. They have acai bowls, and awesome ready made sandwiches. :) read more

I gave Freshmart 4 rather than 5 stars because of their abysmal produce section. If you're looking for fresh produce of any sort then this should not be the place you stop at. Their produce prices are very high, the items do not seem fresh, and the selection is weak. Aside from the produce, their grocery items are great! The store is extremely vegan-friendly, with vegan items to be found in just about every category from yogurt to snacks to frozen foods. Every time I come to town this is where I get my groceries. The prices are really high, but I think that's typical for getting specialized food items on the island since not much is grown or sourced locally and has to be shipped in. They also have a modest but decent wine selection. read more

San Juan's Best Kept Secret...upstairs from the Fresh Mart Market is the most airy, modern and clean spot to eat healthy food items made on-the-spot. There are Gluten-Free items, Vegan items and superb Breakfast and Lunch Specials! Priced a million times more reasonably than ANY other place in this Condado neighborhood. Today's Breakfast Special included Organic Eggs, GF Pancakes and Fresh Coffee all for less than $7.00. You can't beat that for quality food at a place that knows to use butter instead of margarine. read more

The locals were so friendly including the security guard at the door! They have a variety of options and it was very clean inside.

Everyone was so nice. The security guard even helped us pick out a ripe mango and gave us directions to his favorite pizzeria.

What a great find! As much as I love PR, finding healthy vegetarian options is sometimes difficult. Freshmart is not only a great store but a great restaurant too! The folks were very knowledgeable about the ingredients because it's all cooked and prepared on premises. So if you're gluten free or vegetarian or vegan, they have you covered. The grocery department has everything you'd defund at Whole Paycheck, with lots of local brands and products in the mix. Prices are reasonable too. read more

Like a lot of places in Puerto Rico, ample workforce standing around doing nothing, but there is no one to serve you. While service is typically slow on the island due to everyone being on island time, the service here was not that great at all. This is my second time here and I regret coming here just as much as I did the first time. I thought I would give this place another chance but Freshmart failed to deliver once again. I attributed the first bad experience and incredible confusion to the fact that it was right after the hurricane, but apparently, that was business as usual for them. With so many months that have passed, the bad food, service, and experience are unacceptable.The food is not fresh in the upstairs restaurant. There is no clear or efficient way to get your food. You essentially have to hover at different parts of a long counter until you order and are served. The cashier is at the end of the counter, so after I paid I expected the food to come to me, but no. After I paid I was told I had to walk back to the front of the line to get my food. For being in a very touristy area, the employees here are not too proficient in English and are very rude. I am not surprised that this location is not filled with customers and tourists like the places next door. read more

Popular local spot for health food at decent prices in Condado. Right in the heart of it all. The setup can be a bit confusing compared to a regular Whole Foods back in the states- but, it's a great stop for healthy groceries or a quick bite to eat upstairs. Service was decent, and the food was pretty good. read more

Parking sucks, prices are too high and management doesn't care. Their lettuce wasn't even fresh. I walked outside to eat my popsicle and was told I couldn't walk down the block because I had to stay in their store to keep my parking space. The parking sign says 2 hours. No one will spend that much time in your wannabe Whole Foods...nice try but you fall so short on customer service that we won't be back. read more

I think this is the last place I would eat as a vegan. This would be the very last place on my list. Freshmart is no longer what it used to be. I have been eating there almost my whole life (for at least 20 years) and I've seen how they've changed their views in terms of healthh food. It could be called "Morguemart" now. When you go to eat, if you're a vegan, there are more options for meat than vegans/vegetarians. Most of the employees working in the restaurant section in Guaynabo and Carolina are very rude and they don't get what "vegan" is and they confuse it with vegetarianism. Don't get me started with the price. These kind of places are the reason many people don't choose to eat healthy and see "healthy" food as a luxury. In Carolina, when you pay, you have all the corpses and eggs on the right, corpses all filled with blood, and honestly it looks disgusting. That should be hidden in the back or in a fridge and use that section for their wraps, baked stuff (like they used to do before), or anything else instead of the meat since it is very bad taste to see that everytime people pay. No wonder their vegan/vegetarian clients no longer go there as much as they used to. Also, Freshmart has a bad reputation of not putting all the ingredients in the things they bake and cook and they sell them as they appear. For example, their brownies are not vegan since they have eggs. They don't have all the ingredients listed. Also, their pizza dough has eggs. They sell vegetarian options in the Restaurant section as vegan and they don't specify it. Only an experienced vegan would know it is not vegan, for example, the wham, the croquettes, and some other "meat" alternatives are not vegan. read more

I get it, you changed your hours. But if you close at 9 your employees shouldn't be turning people away at 8:50. If anyone needs it, Eros Food Market down the street was actually open until 9 and I was able to get my shopping in. read more

This place is the best! The Continental United States needs places like this. Health food grocery store downstairs with a gelato/acia station. Upstairs is a dining area with smoothies and all kinds of great foods to choose from. This place is great if you are trying to eat healthy and not spend too much. Carlos upstairs serving food is the man! Definitely a great spot. Convenient location. I'll be back. read more

Freshmart - Grocery Near Me - San Juan, Puerto Rico

So happy to have a healthy grocery store close to where I stayed at in Puerto Rico. If you shop at Whole Foods... this is the place to hit up for healthier alternatives. Fresh produce/organic and they carry similar products sold in the main land. Products are limited and they don't have the exact same name brands. Pricing is fair and maybe just a bit higher than the US. Mostly came here for the fresh fruits and snacks. read more

This is THE Whole Foods Market of Puerto Rico! In this spacious and modern building, you will find a myriad of organic foods and products as well as vegetarian and vegan milks, cheeses and meats. The upstairs portion has a cafeteria with both meat and non meat hot meals ready to order as well as sandwiches and personal pizzas. Try the macaroni salad and coleslaw both made with vegan mayo...yum! For less than $10, you can have yourself tasty, healthy meal. It's a great alternative to the majority of restaurants in Condado consisting mostly of Puerto Rican meats and mofongo. If you want a healthy option, try Fresh Mart! read more

Freshmart is a wonderful little gem of an organic grocery store. They have prepared food you can take home with you like a whole or half chicken and sides of rice or soups. They also have baked goods, bread and gelato. Head upstairs to the cafe for a nice view and a good meal to be enjoyed at their farm tables, take back to the hotel or head home. Prices are not terribly high, quality is good and the employees are super helpful. If you need groceries or a quick meal, definitely stop in the Condado Freshmart! read more

I wish I could've loved this place because having an express health-food store like this in the area was a godsend. Alas, my experience at Freshmart was terrible. The service is ridiculously slow and the staff has no reservations about the poor service they provide. My boyfriend and I went to the restaurant upstairs for a quick bite to eat. While we were looking at the menu there were two people behind the food counter one was "cooking" the burgers and the other was serving the food. Once we were ready to order, the lady serving went to the back and never came out. We waited by the counter to be served for about 5 mins before the lady who was "cooking" approached us to take our orders. Mind you there were three staff members standing by the cashier talking amongst each other. Not one of them came up to ask us if we were ready or to call the other girl from the back to let her know we were ready. She didn't come back until after we got our food-- how convenient. Another bone I have to pick is the inefficiency in the food lay-out. I ordered a hot combo. I picked a salmon with two sides. I started in the middle to get my hot entree, then moved to the right to get one side, and then moved back to the left of where I started to get my other side. There were people in line by that point so I was walking back and forth between people to show her what I wanted. Lastly, the food isn't fresh. I say "cooking" because all the lady did was heat up a frozen beef patty and heated up fries in the oven. My boyfriend says his burger tasted like a microwaved patty. I understand that it's counter service food, but Chipotle has fresher ingredients than this place. My salmon was hard from being overcooked and I'm sure that it was cooked then frozen and then warmed up. The downstairs isn't any better. The cashier has an attitude. In all honesty, this place is good when you can avoid any sort of encounter with the staff by going to the quick prep station downstairs or grabbing groceries instead. read more

the uncomfortable situación is when you ask for cold cuts and the answer is the employee from that section did not come in, so therefore we have no one that could do that service, meanwhile you have lots of employees and when I ask the manager she said reported if you want you won't be the First. like wth read more

There is a cafe on the second floor with vegetarian and vegan options. You may also be able to find some gluten-free friendly options (for example, rice and beans), though I don't believe they have a section of their kitchen dedicated to gluten-free food. In terms of the groceries, this is a great store to find gluten-free flours, cereals and frozen breads. Note that the Condado location is smaller than the locations in Hato Rey or Guynabo. read more

Hidden gem. Upstairs cafeteria has great breakfast. First day we had the ginger whole wheat pancakes and farina hot cereal. Today we had the omelet with toast, great portions and I got the farina hot cereal again. We both got coffee. Service was very friendly. We would have paid 3x this for a mediocre breakfast at our hotel. read more
