However, it's close to both the 15 and 6 bus on 163 and 3rd Ave. The location looked closed from a distance but as we got closer we were relieved to see it was open. The gentleman working the register was nice and helpful. I saw online the prices for the 1/2 gallon were $7 but it's now $8. We bought 3 flavors-Cherry, Rainbow & Pineapple Lime. I just tried the cherry and it's phenomenal. They are cash only or Zelle, my husband paid via Zelle. Still a steal. My favorite part is that they put the ingredient list on each of the 1/2 gallon packaging. My son loves icys but after having an allergic reaction from a seller at a coquito cart, he doesn't feel safe having them from anyone anymore. My son is very allergic to Dairy and that particular person had icys and ice cream in their cart so there was definitely cross contamination with the ice cream and icys. Being able to now come to this location and pick it up for him safely is now a great option for my family. I'll def be back!! They are opened 9-4pm m-f by the way!

This is Located on St. Ann's Ave near 163rd st. At first glance the place looked closed since I saw the gates down but the front door was wide open. There was a gentleman behind a counter and he was very nice and polite. He told my wife and I to take a look at the menu and that they take cash only or Zelle for payment. There was a sign with a QR code for the Zelle payment which was convenient because I didn't have enough cash for what I wanted from the extended menu that was there. I had no clue that there was so many flavors of this icee that I ate for years. Easily over 20 different options. I walked out with a 1/2 gallon of cherry flavor, rainbow flavor and pineapple lime and only paid $24. Each 1/2 gallon was $8. I am definitely revisiting this place especially throughout the summer because Delicioso Coco Helado is a summer NY staple.

No supermarket has gotten my money for ice cream this summer. For $7 you can get 1/2 gallon icees of what ever flavor. ( they usually have a list) everything is cash. And this is on st anns Ave in the boogie down baby!!!!! Best icees in the world!!!!

After all, as we all know, there are precious few options for fresh fruits and veggies in the area. :( Red Jacket is up here, which sells a great variety of apples. There's a dairy stand, and I've picked up a pound of fresh ricotta for $5. They also sell a lemon yogurt that has several of my co-workers addicted; I'm afraid to try it. The bread stand plays fun music and sells a wonderful, redolent selection - baguettes, kale asiago breads, tomato onion breads, rustic breads, and so on. You can still pick up potted herbs, and there is a fantastic variety of seasonal vegetables. Currently, the winter squash look pretty awesome. I'm a bit biased because I work with CHALK, but do come check out the CHALK stand! I'm not even selling you anything - just telling you about healthy nutritional habits and giving you opportunities to win greenbucks (money to spend at the Greenmarket on fruits & veggies). :) I also heartily recommend the Greenmarket manager's stand - Kathleen is super sweet, and she makes delicious food for the demos every single week. We had butternut squash pizza yesterday. Some of her past gems include watermelon mint cucumber smoothie, charred pepper salad, and green tomatillo salsa. She has easy and nutritious recipes and a simple, fun lesson every week. Honey, kale, peppers - you name it, she's probably done a highlight of it at some point in time. The Greenmarket runs every Tuesday from 8am-4:30pm until late November. Credit/debit cards are charged an additional $2 to help offset the costs of free fruits & vegetables for EBT holders. (Oooh - if you have EBT, you get $2 in greenbucks for every $5 you spend). So if you don't have EBT, you can either bring cash or donate $2 to EBT when paying via credit/debit.

This time I picked up some sapota or sapodilla. I used to eat this fruit back home in India but now that I live here is nice to know there's a place that sells them. I bought 3 lbs of fruit for $15. That seems pricey for the average Joe but these fruit are not available all the time and the quality was good so I couldn't resist.

But they only last 2 weeks from today 5/24/19, so pay the money and get some fresh lychees. The bigger seeded lychees are $6 a pound, then the loose ones are 3 pounds for $10. They said the $6 a pound are sweeter than the free ones. But the small-seeded lychees are the ultimate! Best-tasting lychees-- small-seeded ones! So sweet and full of juicy lychee flavor you cannot get in a can! Also, cherries are really cheap, cheaper than at other fruit stands or Whole Foods. 2 pounds $3!!!! Last week I paid $6.99 a pound at Whole Foods. Guava $5 a pound. Nothing like a sweet guava from Taiwan. Mangoes 2 for $1. Cheaper than at Whole Foods. Bring your cash! I can easily spend $50 no problem. I saw a lady buy 6 bunches of the $15 a pound lychees. Bring yo cash. Not sure if this is the one I go to: Mullberry at Canal.

This is especially a welcome addition given that the nearby giant Key Food often has terrible fruit/vegetable selection, is often sold out, or the products are rotten or unripe. I also love how RF sells other little goodies besides whole fruits and vegetables that feel like a special treat, like Halavah and Babybell Cheese, various Asian pantry goods, pomegranate arils in tiny packages and gorgeous bouquets of fresh flowers. I love stopping here on my way to visit someone and picking up something special for them. RF is definitely not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I've never left here unsatisfied with my produce. And the folks who own the place and run the register are so sweet.

We're coming from out of the way and usually have to hunt a bit for street parking (which can definitely be a challenge), but once you get there, you realize why we keep coming back. The gentleman running the stand--while not the owner--is one of the kindest, most polite people you'll meet. He's welcoming, helpful, and genuinely makes the experience feel personal every time we stop by. That alone goes a long way. The selection is --a wide assortment of fresh fruits and vegetables that are clearly high quality. You can even spot items from brands like Driscoll's, the same suppliers used by major grocery stores like ShopRite and Stop & Shop... except here, you're paying way less. Hands down, the prices beat the supermarkets every time. And yes, it's the Bronx--it's busy, there's a lot going on, and it might feel a bit overwhelming if you're not used to it. But trust me... don't let that stop you. Take a breath, embrace the energy, the ambiance of New York City and check this spot out. Once you do, you'll understand exactly why we keep making that drive.
