Some may not remember this but years ago, Brevard County had quite a few options when it came to…read morealternative groceries. On US-192 in Melbourne, we had Lucky's. On Murrell Rd. up in Rockledge, we had Earth Fare. And of course there are the constant rumors of finally having a Whole Foods here. But for some reason, what we had just suddenly closed. We did have local alternative groceries, which I am thankful for, but I know a larger alternative grocery would provide more options. Ergo, I am happy Sprouts decided to open here in Melbourne, FL, especially since I got to experience them in Tampa because my sister is a regional manager for their personal health department. Located on Hollywood Blvd., in the same plaza as LA Fitness Palm Bay, Sprouts is a stand-alone store that provides many of the same options both Lucky's and Earth Fare had. They have all the typical grocery departments including a bakery, deli, produce, personal health, and such. They do have an ambiance similar to our local Downtown Produce and the Thrifty Produce located in Rockledge on Eyester Blvd. For example, above their milk and diary wall, their signage is framed within a dairy farm setting. Other sections have old-time farmer's market signage above them complete with corrugated metal roofing and treated wood panels. Much of the base grocery is alternative healthier choices from what mainstream groceries provide. However, what stands out are their produce, meat and deli, and bakery. Everything is made fresh, and most are in-house. They provide freshly-squeezed juices, fresh-cut veggies and fruits, and pre-made meals that you can take home and cook. My personal favorite section is the personal care section, which provides alternative personal care and health options that actually work, from what I see. I definitely like the CBD gummies that provide sleep. There is much more to explore when I eventually go back here to Sprouts. For now, I am going to give the store a four out of five stars. They have everything you may want in an alternative grocery. The prices may be a little high, but that seems to be the case when it comes to quality. That is why Publix prices are usually higher than places like Walmart or Food Lion and so on. If this Sprouts remains consistent on their four-star quality and service on average (I'll give them a bad day or two), then they'll earn their fifth star for consistency.

If you're looking for a market that's something like Whole Foods , look no further than Sprouts!!…read more I was so excited to find this market here in Melbourne. When I visit here I'm usually very hard pressed to find a selection of organic, healthy ready made foods, great produce , kombucha choices and a good variety of my usual staples of high protein low carb ,vegetarian and even some vegan dairy items for other friends and family. I have been here for two weeks and been to Sprouts three times!! They had the best peaches I've had in past memory. For family members I found balsamic glazer cherry salmon with roasted vegetables ready to simply bake, which we did and they loved. Not as much of a selection of vegetarian ready to eat sandwiches or meals as I would have expected. But there was a delicious apple quinoa pumpkin seed and kale side salad that I couldn't stop eating. Lovely selection of baked goods, gluten free, vegan and for the rest of us just regular! Excellent service from really friendly and helpful staff. Well worth stopping in
