We finally decided to stop after seeing all of these citrus world signs all over the highway. YIKES! This was a sad and overpriced tourist trap. $19.95 for a bag of rock hard and rotting assortment of oranges. Most of the place had no prices so you're forced to ask and everything looked old and rotting and was extremely overpriced. Definitely skip this and go to Georgia peach world or the nearest local farmers market. read more

Florida Citrus World - Farmers Market Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

. . . The huge, very colorful sign posted outside got my attention. I stopped by more out of curiosity more than anything. Inside the shop, I saw apple cider, boiled peanuts, T-shirts, crafts, pies, homemade candies, nuts, shells, fruits, and other stuff. It is a touristic type of store. It probably does well with the out-of-towners crowd. The candy looked good and the idea that was homemade made it more appealing to me. I bought a bag for friends. I ended up buying the apple cider. It was strawberry flavor. That sounded interesting. The worker mentioned that it made a great mixer. That suggestion sold me. I was happy with my purchase. . . . The gentleman working was very helpful and friendly. I was glad I stopped and checked the place out. read more

See all

Friendly staff and lots of cool things to look at. We always stop for the oranges so yummy !

I was suitably skeptical having read the other reviews, but bought a perfectly tasty and not stale bag of pecans here. "New Crop". Ten bucks for a small bag. The orange I tasted was nice. The place is a bit run down. The folks there were certainly appreciative of my custom. read more

I don't know what this place is but my wife and I LOVED it!!! We bought some nuts (incredible) and bargained on some fireworks. Old school fruit stand with really cool guys working there. This is why I moved to Florida! read more

Horrible. No written prices. Just whatever number the guy pulls out of the air......Seems like a scam

Fruit is rotten, Don't listen to them when they say the brown ones are the sweetest. They are just totally rotten. Some of them might taste sweet but most are past their prime and taste terrible. read more

Florida Citrus World - a bunch of oranges on a table - Farmers Market Near Me - Ormond Beach, Florida

I love supporting local and was on the way to Flagler beach, where we are moving soon. saw the billboards and I'm a sucker also for retro-y Florida fruit stands. Saw an amazing assortment of citrus and flavored pecans and honey and more! I didn't need citrus at the time but will be back for sure. I ended up getting a variety of pecans. 4 different types. I'm very excited about the key lime flavored ones. Took them home and they were all so fresh....btw Shopkeeper was nice and let us sample. I will definitely be back for the coconut toast spread. There were also some Florida souvenir stuff too. Check it out!! read more

Eh, I've driven up and down between Florida and Georgia about 5 times now and I've always passed by these citrus world signs with neon signs saying "1$ fruit, t shirts, Orange Blossom Honey, etc etc" and I decided this time, I'm gonna stop by and see what it is all about. First, Florida has a strange obsession with Native American culture- mannequins, ponchos, weird snowglobes, and carvings. So that was everywhere. This one place I stopped at two pretty creepy looking mannequins sitting right outside of the gas station. There was free samples- i thought given their exotic names, the samples were lackluster. They were selling 2 bags for 20$, and I thought the flavor was too sour and not enough punch compared to something you can find in Publix. 2 for 20$ is a rip off given that it is the season now and you can get a whole bag for 5.99$. Pineapple oranges, naval, grapefruit, and mandarins were the samples I tried. Orange blossom honey was over priced. You can buy it in bulk from festivals in gallons for 6$ a lb and they were selling it for 10$ a lb here. Then again it's a touristy get up, so if you're into paying a bit more, go for it. Shells were nice. If you need to pick up some seashells to prove you were in florida, go for it. I thought the specimen were common placed and ok, but adds to the vibe that you are indeed in a Florida touristy place. Crocodile heads- they have those indeed. They have them in every one of these stops. Some of them have baby crocodiles to look at. But you can buy these here Sugar/caramel nuts- hmm these were ok tasting. I thought they were a little stale and over sugared and not as flavorful as their names gave them to be. read more

Spent $50 a week ago. The oranges were horrible. You could not eat these oranges, they were like a piece of wood. Citrus World stole our money! read more

My husband stopped at one of the shops on I95 and purchased a bag of oranges. When we got home we found it was not the kind we thought we were buying. After contacting the customer service rep, we received a replacement box of oranges, More than had been in the original bag. GREAT customer service. We wil be stopping there again and again. And the fruit was outstanding!!!!! Thank you from your new Charleston SC customers read more

We bought oranges and pecans an none of it was any good. It was a complete waste of money. I had to apologize for the oranges we gave as a gift. It was the first stand we saw and we should have moved on. read more

Happened to stop here in our way to Orlando a week ago. The people working were very nice. We sampled papershell pecans and several types of citrus fruit which was all delicious. We bought 2 bags of pecans and a bag of honey tangerines. The pecans have been fine so far. The tangerines are another story. The ones we sampled had no seeds in them. The ones they sold us do. The rate has been fine but we have found a few rotten ones in the bag. Not what you want to find when you pay $15 for something. Sort of bummed since they were really friendly there. We even got a card from them to be able to order more when we needed them. Guess that won't be happening now. read more

Driving back from a school trip to disney, thought this would be a good place to stop and get some oranges. so i picked up a bag of oranges and a bag of georgia peaches. and a bag of cinnamon pecans. guy looked at my cart and said pretty aggressively "$30". i don't know what anything cost. i don't think it was worth the money. I will not be returning. The place just had an overall creepy and dingy feel to it. i feel very ripped off. read more

The sign from 95 N. said $1.79 a gallon, cash, credit or debit. Seems great right? WRONG credit was 2.09 a gallon. When my husband went in to pay cash & complained about the bait & switch tactics / deceptive trade, he returned to the pump, the guy turned his pump off, brought the cash back out & told us to go somewhere else. Worked well for us, we went to the Racetrack almost across the street, paid $1.85 a gallon cash ir credit. another customer hearing this exchange, followed us to the Racetrack and got their gas their too. I am proud of our tourist friendly state, this guy takes advantage and should be ashamed..#badbusiness read more

We stopped here traveling from Florida back home to New Jersey. They had samples of different oranges along with other types of food. I tried a sample of orange that was very sweet; I loved it, I asked the man cutting the samples where I could get a bag and he pointed it out. I bought a bag back to him to be sure these were the ones I had tried...he assured me they were. I paid $24.95 for that bag of oranges. I also purchased a small bag of pecans for $8.00. They had samples of nuts as well, including the pecans I purchased and they were good. A few hours of driving later and I tried the pecans; they were completely stale and awful. I threw them away, When we got home I couldn't wait to have an orange, Upon opening several, I realized not only were these NOT the oranges I asked and paid for, the insides were half white...no juice...terrible. About 15 of the oranges at the bottom of the bag that you can't see clearly were rotten. None of these were even edible. I feel ripped off. These places prey upon people traveling and know that no one is going to drive several hundred miles back to return something so you're out money, DO NOT STOP HERE!! read more

The service at this place is outstanding!!!! Being from New Jersey i am mostly unfamiliar with pumping my own gas. After telling the attendant this, he stopped what he was doing and offered to help pump my gas! I thought this was very friendly and helpful, considering other gas stations i had previously stopped at just treated me like an inconvienamce for needing help! After finishing the gas he invited me back into the store to try some of their homemade pecan candies and they were beyond compare!!!! I ended up leaving with a tank of gas, a bag full of candies i purchased and a smile on my face!!! This place is full of old florida stlye and southern charm!!! I will definately be stoping here again my next trip and calling in between trips so they can ship me some more of those candies!!!!! read more

I feel compelled to share my experience with Florida Citrus World especially in light of the less than stellar reviews on this page. I was coming home from Taveres and decided I wanted to stop for some oranges and grapefruits to take home to Fayetteville. Even though the oranges were somewhat expensive $14.00 for a small bag, same for grapefruits, I wanted to support the orange growers in light of the problems with citrus greening. The grapefruits were the best I have had in a long time and far superior to the Texas grapefruits in the stores. The oranges, which I thought were supposed to be navels, were full of seeds and dry and nasty. At that point, I read some of the reviews on line and was ready to post a similar one myself but decided to call them and get their side. To their credit, before I even asked, they offered to ship me some oranges to make things right. Granted, it did take some time for them to get to me and honestly I half expected them not to follow through. But, let me tell you the ones I got were without a doubt the best oranges I have ever had. Also, it cost them $19.00 in shipping plus the loss on the oranges themselves to correct the situation. I will absolutely stop by every time I visit my mom and pick up more (although I will ask for assistance in picking a good bag next time). The only reason I didn't rate this a five star is because of the first bag. But a very strong 4 stars here. And to the lady who complained about the gas, give me a break. It is a citrus stand. read more

A great place to stop! Low fuel prices, fresh fruit and plenty of homemade candy samples!!!!
