    Ikeda's California Country Market - Mushroom tasty burger

    Good pit stop with a decent market to browse next door…read more Mushroom burger - 10/10 Patties were tasty, bun was solid, mushroom and onions were superb. Onion rings - 10/10 Very very very good. Sweet potato fries - 8/10 Good. Wish they were crispier.

    Came in an hour before closing and the place is still buzzing with a ton of people either waiting…read morefor their food or going straight to the market for the pies. I was one of the pie people. Having had Ikeda's Marionberry Pie before, I knew the quality and expected such. The quality was there and I liked how the pies were readily available for you to grab and go. What made a terrible impression and made this visit one I wish I did not take, making me give 3 stars out of 5, was the young woman who checked me out. I ordered 4 pies and two were gifts so I asked for two extra bags. She answered in an annoyed way that they're $.25 each. No problem I said and paid for them. This extra one minute really seemed to have bothered her and it's terrible that she made me feel unvalued in such a short amount of time. She seemed to be eager to help the party behind me, which is great but she had no finesse in her customer service. I believe she could've made my experience completely different and still acknowledge the people after me. She made it seem as if I'm less important of a customer than they were. She also didn't bag my 4th pie which was awkward because she gave me the bags there. I'll be back but I won't be in a hurry like I was before. These small personal nuances are what makes small businesses great. When you're client facing it's so important to know this. It doesn't take much to be kind or provide great service.

    If you're going to Apple Hill, this is one of the go to places. They are popular for their pies…read more There is also produce and baked goods. If you want more substantial food, there is BBQ. Wine and hard cider is available for the adults, while train rides and face painting is available for children. There's fun to be had for the whole family. We happened to be there for their blackberry days. I tried my friend's blackberry ice cream and enjoyed it. I ordered a blackberry sugar donut and apple sugar donut. Both were good and I liked that they were fluffy. It can get quite busy, but there was plenty of parking.

    It's been a while since we've been to Apple Hill. We decided to stop at Boa Vista Orchard and enjoy…read moretheir blueberry-themed event. Since it was a weekend, we expected it to be jam-packed, but it was a decent crowd, not too busy. They had vendors set up with items for sale and delicious fruit on display. The BBQ smelled amazing, and we both decided next time we will plan to eat lunch here as well. After we walked around, we wanted to try some of their desserts. My husband chose the apple fritter, and I chose a blueberry turnover, and we also grabbed some coffee. The employees who helped us were a little off-putting and did not seem to want to be there. That was surprising since everyone else we encountered was nice. Once we settled into a bench, we dug into our desserts. They were both delicious and messy, which I think are the best desserts. Before we left, we decided to grab some donuts to take home for family. We got the Blueberry Sugar Donut, Blueberry Glazed Donut, Sugar Apple Donut, and Glazed Apple Donut. The employees who helped us at this window were very nice and helpful. I would've given a 5-star rating but had to drop one due to the first employees. If they do not want to be working, they shouldn't be there, or at least shouldn't be working the front. We will definitely be back again in a few weeks and take the kids this time!

    This is for the blueberry stand at the SF Farmer's market. Stay away from this stand - the person…read moreselling you the blueberries targeted us with random aggressive and confrontational behavior. My 11 year old daughter and I came to the Ferry Building for a fun Mom and daughter morning. We hit the Rainbow Orchards stand first, for what was my first and sure to be last visit. We waited to the side while a customer who was there before us was helped, chatting about how much to get. That customer left, and he took the elderly guy who came after us first - no big deal. Then it was our turn and I asked him for 5 dollars worth and handed him a 20. I had 4 singles and a 20, and the choices were either 5 dollars worth, 8 dollars worth, or another amount I can't recall. He told my shy daughter snakily "Don't grow up to be a person who comes to the Farmer's Market and doesn't have exact change." It felt out of line for him to address her in that way. And, he's already complained about me not having exact change. Hey, either sell us the blueberries or don't, but were not here to be a sponge for your anger. So, I observed flatly, well, we don't have to buy anything. And he said, "yes, you do, because I already have your money." Okay, so another aggressive and weird response. I reached out to get the bag of blueberries, since evidently he was giving me no choice other than to buy them, and he backed up so they would be out of my reach. It was like the 4th rude thing he did that was unprovoked. I managed to get the bag and walk away, but he did ruin a chunk of our sweet trip to the Farmer's Market. I wonder how many shoppers had to deal with absorbing his hostility that day.

    Our family has been frequenting Charter Family Farm fruit stand every season for as long as I can…read moreremember. We always enjoy the stone fruits, different varieties of watermelon, corn, etc. However since it has transitioned to The Harvest Bend, the soul of the place isn't quite there any more. No longer are we greeted by familiar faces stocking peppers and tomatoes in the outside bins, rather those bins are generally empty and unwelcoming... the watermelons and corn that were always stocked in the entrance have been empty or sold out some days, as the volume of stock was seemingly not ready to out out (leaving gaps in availability that were not there before)... the prices seem to have gone up and additions of overpriced pies, popcorn, and soaps from outside the immediate area make it seem more like a new generation boutique rather than a reliable family farm stand. Most recently, at the farm stand we were buying about 10 pounds of stone fruit, assorted veggies, 24 ears of corn and 4 yellow watermelons. And as we have always done in the past, we simply informed the team member at the counter that we would also be grabbing four watermelons on our way out, as our hands were full with the rest of the produce. She informed us she couldn't ring them up until we brought them in because different sizes were different prices, despite their own signage saying they were one flat price ($7 per yellow watermelon) - almost as if we were going to steal them - because when we came back in (after holding up the line to quickly grab them), they were in fact all the same price after all (no difference based on size - just a flat price). I don't know, but this place has lost its soul, is overpriced, and is seemingly more focused on branding, buzz, and social reach/engagement rather than what matters to its patrons.

    Visited August 13th...see my receipt. THIS THE CHARTER…read moreFAMILY FRUITSTAND NOT CARTER!!!! Wow - what a pleasant find! This place is about 5 miles from highway 5 in Williams. (Take highway 20 from I 5 towards Clearlake). They had such a great selection of fruits and vegetables at a reasonable price! Plus different flavors of pistachios.They also sell honey and even pies! Love that they also have olive oil and sauces! They have cold drinks in the frig and ice cream too. It is well organized and VERY clean inside ( air conditioning as well). It is cutely decorated and I bought some really fresh veggies! The 2 young ladies at the cash register who very friendly and helpful! I will be back very soon to get some more delicious fruits and veggies! Awesome experience and worth a few miles out!

    Only complaint is that pies aren't bigger. I've been going here for a couple years now and I could…read morehave sworn the pies I bought when I first went there were 10". The boxes they use are definitely big enough for 10" pies, but they currently sell 9" pies (for $30). The pies are excellent, don't get me wrong. But I drive up from southern california and I'd like to take back a bigger pie, even if it's for more money.

    Theres sooo much hype about this place so we went to go try!!…read more Its in very rural davis-ish. Its like a plot of dirt then the lil stand. They have their famous pies as well as produce and some other stuff, but its a very small shop with like 4 tables outdoors. Def a stop on your way somewhere, not necessarily a destination. Their pie slices were like $8 a slice and a whole pie was $30. They also had many more options for whole pies vs pie slices, but its possible its because we went later in the day? They had some savory pies, cold pies, but mostly baked pies like peach, various berries, etc! They also have fruit freezes you can purchase too! We ended up sharing a banana cream pie and i got a peach pie too. The banana cream pie was HEFTY. It was HEAVY and PACKEDDDD. A LOT of cream a LOT of banana filling. Very yummy though and feeds a lot more people than you'd think. The peach pie was also very good! Im not a huge "cooked fruit" person and neither is mt family but we demolished the pie. The peaches were a surprisingly nice texture! And the crust was very good. $30 is a bit steep but if theyre using fresh fruits and baking them fresh its worth a stop if youre in the area!
