We stopped here 3 times in 2 days in the area. I especially loved the papaya smoothie. The chocolate chip cookies were great too! It has a very laid back atmosphere and beautiful gardens to enjoy your smoothie in. Parking is limited and can be difficult. Only one employee but the line goes fast. It's expensive but size is decent. Would recommend! read more

The cutest little fruit stand/ lunch spot. Delicious smoothies, coffee, sandwiches & the best carrot cake we've ever had.

The BEST smoothies on the island! We loved their smoothies so much (and the Lilikoi Dessert Bars) that we visited twice! Smoothies were so packed full of fresh fruit - they are delicious and so nicely priced. We tried the Pineapple Passion Fruit, Pineapple Guava, and Papaya Banana. The best smoothies we've ever had. They have snacks, gifts, macadamia nuts, local products, and tons of fresh fruits in addition to smoothies and sandwiches. The staff was lovely, especially the woman who had fresh flowers in her hair daily. read more

Every time we're on the Big Island, we now make it a point to stop at the South Kona Fruit Stand -- and it never disappoints. It's one of those places that feels like a true local treasure. Everything is fresh, colorful, and full of flavor. The white pineapple, papaya, and mango are always perfect, and the smoothies are honestly some of the best I've ever had. It's more than just a fruit stand, it's a peaceful little stop where you can slow down, enjoy the view, and soak in the aloha. The staff is friendly, the vibe is laid-back, and you can tell they take pride in what they do. If you're driving through South Kona, do yourself a favor and pull over. Whether you grab some fruit, a fresh coconut, or just a smoothie, you won't regret it. This place is a favorite for a reason. read more

The cutest fruit stand with exotic fruit for cheap, friendly workers, and a nice seating area with a view. Saw this fruit stand on the side of the road as we were travelling back and forth from Captain Cook. Wanted to stop by and see what kind of fruit they had. We ended up picking up rambutan, papaya, apple banana, ugli fruit, and these cherries that were almost bell pepper-like. The cashier was super sweet and helpful as we browsed and shopped. Didnt get to try their fresh smoothies but I bet those were delicious too. read more

When you just hike the Captain Cook Monument without liquid with you of course you're dying to slurp anything cold after. Goodness along the way to Hilo this fruit stand stall is a savior for our thirsty throat. We stopped here for some smoothies and watery fruits. Bandit got the chocolate peanut butter banana and rice milk smoothie while I got the mango banana apple juice. T'was okay. Not the best. It's refreshing though coz its cold. Got the Caimito with us to munch along the road. The Caimito fruit was so good. It's sweetness is just right! If only there's other fruit stand nearby I'll check it out for sure. I mean, the woman who took orders are a bit grumpy. Also, when I tried to ask for a knife to cut the Caimito she said that they won't do it coz of Covid. I don't wanna comment coz it's just unreal. Like duh, I can wash it for you if you like Auntie. But yeah, ended up using my teeth to slit the fruit. LoL. A bit messy but all worth it! Mahalo for reading and happy juandering fellow yeeps! read more

The smoothie was decent. The lady working there was a very odd vibe. She told me it was her mission to educate people about washing fruit. I didn't stop by for a sermon. She told me something about fruit washing and rats and I tuned her out. She told me that they use only frozen fruit and her smoothies are the best in the island. Well I'd give the smoothie a 4 and the experience a 2. I've had far better tasting smoothies. read more

Cute local stand with lots of different fruits we have never heard of or seen before. The owner was super friendly and helpful, helping us decide which fruits to try and informing us to wash the fruits with soap and water. We ended up buying apple banana, strawberry papaya, snake fruit, white guava, abiu, and rollinia. We also got a #7 smoothie which had mango, papaya, and apple juice - we chugged it! In the back they have some baked goods and bottled drinks. We got a lilikoi bar, candied ginger and some bottled water. read more

I am so so happy that my family finally drove by at the right time. We work weird hours and have always missed it. Anyways, onto the good stuff. I just ate the best salsa on earth. They have chips there (just buy them there, you have to try the salsa right away) just delish! It's so cute. So clean. They are so adorable and kind. I bet it's even more fun for tourists. They have some fun local fruits you don't see anywhere. And they have knowledge. Ask them about juicy frt gum! Wait till I eat their baked goods and ulu salad! read more

Drove 40+ minutes to get here on a Friday at 1:30pm and they were closed despite the hours posted on Yelp, their FB page, and website. We've been here a handful of times in the past and while their fruit is generally good quality, the selection is limited depending on the time of year you're visiting and is really no different than what you can get if you're visiting one of the farmer's markets on the island, plus it's slightly more expensive. read more

I came here with a friends of mine to get some fresh fruit and I was so happy I could find my favorite kind of bananas I used to eat in Brazil. I just could not believe it. They also have so many different tropical and exotic fruits, smoothies, soap, and other little things to get. Prices sometimes can be a little high but if you are either craving for something you can't find in your home or if are not afraid and want to try new stuff, here is the right place to come. The place is small but has super friendly staff and good parking lot. Remember to bring tour own bag because they can't provide any. Fortunately they had a few boxes and we put our fruits there. I will definitely come back here to get more fresh bananas and guava fruit. Super yummy!!!!! read more

Came here at 1:40 on Saturday 9/10, and unfortunately they were closed. This unavailability doesn't match the hours posted on the sign.

Love the vibe! Feels like a super local spot with nice fresh fruit. Great location and our kids loved it.

I LOVED South Kona Fruit Stand!! The food was awesome, and my kids loved it! The service was absolutely helpful and they were so bright! The fruit was so fresh and yummy. I definitely recommend this place!! read more

Every year, I spend a month or two on the Big Island of Hawaii. I stay on the Kohala coast but I do venture around the island a little bit. This fruit stand is South of Kona. They have amazing fruit options and it is always fresh!! You will find lots of familiar fruits as well as some fruits that are a little more difficult to come by on the mainland. No worries though, the staff are very friendly and will explain how to open and eat anything you are not familiar with. They also make great sandwiches and smoothies. If you are looking to make it a full day out of it, I recommend snorkeling at two step and then eating here after! read more

Lady is not friendly to me at all. I want to buy a coca taste fruit and ask her whether should could cut it for me because I travel from another states and no knife at hotel, and she said no. The store said has fresh fruit to sale but end up no mostly popular tropical fruit at all. They mainly sale smooth which they freeze the fruit first and make it. read more

Amazing produce and smoothies. Beth was wonderfully knowledgeable about fruits I was unfamiliar with (as I live in New York) and helped me pick out perfectly ripe ones. I wish South Kona Fruit Stand were my local market! read more

Stop here for all of your fresh fruit needs! We picked up individual fruits that we've never tried, plus mango for breakfast - can't wait to try it all! Lovely displays and descriptions guide your purchases. The owner helpfully provided plastic knives to us so that I could cut a few pieces up at the beach later today. We tried smoothies and the lilikoi bar was to die for! Five patrons at a time due to covid so be patient! read more

What a great place to stop on the way around the island. We caught the owner short staffed and could not order any sandwiches or smoothies. We did however have a chance to buy some the best carrot cake I have had on the island. It is moist, has pineapple, macadamia nut, and cream cheese icing! Their bathroom is clean and plenty of variety of fresh fruits grown on site. Pull over from your drive and enjoy. read more

Wonderful friendly staff and amazing top quality smoothies. I've never had better ! Go out of your way to come here.

Macadamia nut mini-pie, Kona coffee, potato salad, and a ham & cheese sandwich with avacado. All of this available at the fruit stand! My friend got fruit, but I got all of the above, and every last bite was scrumptious. She also got the carrot cake and she billed it as "the best carrot cake I've ever tasted." I did have a bite, and I wouldn't disagree. I was taking the red-eye home last night, and you can't take fruit out of Hawaii (except pineapple), because of some crazy agriculture rule, so I didn't get any fruit, but it looked soooo enticing. I am coming back to Kona again if I return to Hawaii. By far my favorite island is the Big Island, and I am making this little stop a priority. Sweet and friendly cashier. Great selection. Beautiful ambiance. Astoundingly delicious food. This is a favorite. Mahalo! read more

South Kona Fruit Stand - Fruits & Veggies Near Me - Captain Cook, Hawaii

The fresh fruit smoothies (pineapple, mango, or lilikoi) are outstanding here! We were starting our morning drive from Captain Cook to South Point, HI. In that direction, it's easy to miss the South Kona Fruit Stand entrance. I decided to reverse back so our family could buy smoothies at 9:15am. We waited for about 5 minutes and then got back in the car. My wife, two sons (12 yrs, 10 yrs), and I agreed that these were the most delicious fruit smoothies we had on the Big Island. Overall, I would recommend a quick stop if you're driving to Kona from South Point (or vice versa). Alternatively, the South Kona Fruit Stand is a great option after a couple hours of snorkeling at Two-Step or visiting the "Place of Refuge" National Park at Honaunau. read more

Came all this way and it was closed. It is 320 as I write smh. Maybe an update would be nice for those that want to come visit

This is for sellers of fruit . Di not bring your stuff here!!! They write you ious then when you come to collect the remaining money they said they would pay , the gal will try to force you to take pumpkins instead of the cash they owe you. Not good business practices. I heard the blond lady got fired so I thought I'd give him another chance to buy my awesome produce from me. I went by today with 3 buckets of white pineapples, 3bags of each -avacados, ice cream bananas, apple bananas , breadfruit, starfruit, oranges, pomelos, purple and yellow passion fruit, and papayas. Well even though I was told to return today because they would want all my stuff by their neighbor that was working on new years day. When I showed up today that same nasty woman was still there and immediately let me know that they had more than enough of everything they needed and wouldn't be buying anything for a while. She is obviously still pissed that I made her stick to their word and give me cash not pumpkins . Sad business practices. I do not know if her boss even has a clue to the truck bed loaded full that she showed away today. read more
