Reviews
"Friendly and helpful staff. Good prices. Great range. Fresh produce. Open till 6pm weeks for us who work. I shop there frequently. I recommend them."
"I started shopping here thinking that there were some very good specials only to discover that much of the time, the prices were low because the fruit and vegetables were almost spoiled. That can be forgiven though, and I guess you should sometimes expect inferior quality for lower prices. I give it a one star however because of the atrocious customer service. We made an order online a short while ago and, the delivery never came. We messaged the store and were given the worst customer service we’ve had in years. Rachel didn’t bother to apologise and told us to ask our neighbours if they had taken our fruit and vegetables. When I explained that there are 25 units in our apartment block, and asked which neighbours we should ask, she said not all of them, just the ones who had our vegetables. We asked for a refund and said we would shop somewhere else in future. If you like the experience of having your vegetables delivered to your neighbourhood, and then being told to go on a treasure hunt, buy your fruit and vegetables here. Alternatively, find a fruit and veggie shop that doesn’t treat you like that and save yourself a headache."
"Havent shopped here for ages, I live further away now. As always friendly staff, some good bargains. But was disappointed that i had to join yet another club to get the specials. Im a customer, I've come in, just give the discount. Why waste my time and divide your customers. Some people don't want to give their details out just to buy veggies. I suggest a loyalty card instead. I just needed a few vege for tea and I was over your way. Sorry its put me off coming back."
"Love shopping for fruit and vegetables here. Prices are cheap, produce is fresh and all of the staff is lovely. Last week I was attended by Jules and she was extra nice to me and the clients before and after me, that really made my day."
