The girl at he counter was wearing food gloves only to constantly be handling food AND money and even wipe her sweat off her face with he gloves! On top of that, many of the fruit they use are leftovers. I watched them take all these mashed banana byproducts from the chest freezer and blend them! Disgusting! Avoid unless you want gastro!

Charlie's is a bit of a coup for us Northsiders. Open 24 hours and providing respectably priced…read morefruit & veg with great customer service - there's a reason you'll often find this local shop buzzing with shopping carts. As a family run business, the service reflects this. It's not too much trouble, as other Yelpers have mentioned, for the team to help you carry your shopping to the car. You get a choice of bag or box and there's a small section at the front of the store perfect for stocking up on slightly blemished produce for smoothies or juice. I most recently bought a bag of pineapples for $5 that have been well used in smoothies this week and even a chicken dish for dinner. There's also a small area for organic and gluten free flours, coconut oils, yoghurts, cheeses etc. All in all Charlie's is a one-stop shop and great for a weekly produce shop or for the one-off "I've run out of..." type of stop in. If you're not keen on driving to Everton Park, they also have online ordering with a flat $5 delivery.

I'm so glad I was able to try Charlie's while visiting Brisbane! My sister got me excited to try…read moretheir vegan delicacies, as well as browse their vast fruit selection. After being on the road traveling for close to two months, I had gotten used to eating what was cheap and convenient, not taking nutrition into consideration most of the time, so I was craving some colors in my diet. Charlie's had a few fruits I'd never seen before, one of which was a Jackfruit, cut open and on display. Also available were coconuts, passion fruit, pineapples and other tropical deliciousness. There's a small selection of dairy-free cheeses, yoghurts and ice creams, as well as other vegan food options. We decided to get something to snack on from the cafe section. I chose a falafel which, after reading another user's review, I realize I should have asked if they were made that morning because it was cold (which I wasn't expecting) as well as soggy. Unless it was freshly made, I wouldn't recommend it. My sister ordered the banana "nice-cream," which was sinfully creamy and somehow still 100% dairy-free. Even the chocolate drizzle on top fooled me! We also got a few of their smoothies, all of which had the option of being organic (for an extra charge) or regular. Overall, it was a fairly pricey but deliciously healthy mini meal. There's a lot of hype to this place but I think it's well-deserved - worth a visit!

However, a HUGE downfall of this business is the fact that they are still using plastic straws/forks/spoons. The strange thing is that they have paper/cardboard bowls for acai bowls, and cardboard containers for the little slices and bliss balls - but yet still plastic straws and cutlery? There are so many environmentally conscious options out there such as bamboo cutlery and paper straws. Please Melon Head consider switching to these options ASAP.
