This is clearly the best spot to grab your veg and fruit. They also have a nice impulse selection…read moreof fresh herbs. Plenty of selection with some at rock bottom prices where the incentive is to move their product, rather than to maximize a profit. That's appreciated when you just need to cook and are not in the market for tourist activities. It's right across from Essence on the corner of Kensington beside rasta pasta. No need to go anywhere else, as they 'have it all'. Cash only.

Always busy here, but the produce is often very fresh and usually cheaper than their competition in…read morethe area. Since the location is usually busy, the stock gets replenished frequently and they never run out of any items, at least not during the times I have visited. Plus during the warmer months there's an abundance of fresh produce and herbs to purchase for your own indoor/outdoor gardens at home. It seemed like the whole outside of the store is lined with mini containers screaming take me home, take me home and pick me, pick me. I'm always tempted to buy some as it'll be convenient to have freshly available produce at home, but just haven't taken the bait yet since I like coming to the market. The selection of fruits and vegetables may seem overwhelming, but everything is neatly organized and labeled well for easy identification and pricing. Whatever I'm looking for or want, they seem to have at any given time. They even have fiddleheads which not many places in the market carries. Overall, a good place to pick up fresh produce without paying too much and one of my go-to places in the market.

I absolutely LOVE Fruit King. Here's why:…read more The produce is always fresh and somehow always seems to taste miles better than what I get at big chain grocery stores. Not to mention it's dirt cheap. I eat A LOT of fruits and veggies, which can get pretty pricey...thanks to Fruit King I can afford to feed myself :) And the good doesn't stop there. For such a tiny hole-in-the-wall market they still manage to have a great variety of produce. I should mention though that if you're looking for a fully stocked grocery you've come to the wrong place. However, they do carry things are difficult to find in regular groceries (for example, lemon grass...I can NEVER find lemon grass!). And you'll find other goodies besides fruits and veggies-- cheap spices, dry noodles, Asian cooking sauces, canned/jarred goods, dried fruit, etc. As far as service goes it's top-notch. The cashiers ring-in and bag your purchases at the speed of light. Fruit King is just plain delicious!

I just purchased 2 tubs of fresh organic strawberries for $3! Steal! That is way cheaper than St. Lawrence Market. I will keep my eye out for similar deals whenever I pass this place again. The inside of the store looks very similar to a Chinatown store setup, with a scale and 1 cashier at the front that quickly processes the transactions. It's true, there's no service provided here, and the area where they place the vegetable looks quite dingy but the freshness of their produce and price is what the 4 stars are for.

They have tons of fresh fruit & veggies including a decent organic variety at very affordable prices. I even found seeded watermelon, which is rare!

This is an Asian grocery and flower shop. It is the smallest that I've seen, being long and narrow…read more It is very clean, tidy, and bright, unlike most Asian grocery stores. There are fresh groceries (mostly fruit), refrigerated groceries, snacks, and cut flowers. Some of the fruit and snacks are imported, such as pomelo from China, strawberries from South Korea, and Oreos from China. Everything appears to be very fresh, except maybe the bananas. Prices seem reasonable, especially located in the downtown core. The customer service is courteous. It recently opened in Nov 2023. The store is wheelchair accessible. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2024-005

I gotta admit this place threw me for a loop like everyone else, including likely the one other…read morereviewer on here. Everyone seems to mix up this place with Kensington fruit market on Kensington and St Andrew. What piqued my interest goes back to one drunken Sunday night on the Victoria Day long weekend when we had a feast at Toronto institution Oyster Boy tucked away in Trinity Bellwoods park. After that we stumbled across the park north towards where the car was on Dundas but wait, the night wasn't over yet, by far, so when we saw some signs of life on Dundas we decided to stop in for a drink on the patio. It was one of very few places even open in the depths of the long weekend. Turns out it was one of Canada's premiere wine bars, Archive. This is where industry people go to talk, well, industry talk I suppose. The server was super chatty with my friend as both are wine nerds and intellectuals it turns out. In convo he started bragging about their food saying "it's local goodness, we get our meat from Sanagan's and our veg from Augusta Fruit Market" so I had to find the place and today I did! I've walked by so many times without noticing it's ridiculous. Out front on the ground were boxed orders of fruit and vegetables each with a scribbled customer's name. These read like a who's who of Toronto's culinary scene! Amazing. I checked out the downstairs cold storage which was an underground maze of boxes and boxes of veg with many staff literally running around like ants moving boxes and prepping orders. Cold, dark, dank with water on the floor in parts like something out of a horror movie and scary like something might jump out at you around one of the corners. Orders move up to the main floor via an antique freight elevator adding to the creepiness complete with rattling chains. Well done Kensington, you've surprised and shocked me yet again with the vibe!

Cherry picking season has started and it's a good opportunity to go to cherry orchards and enjoy…read moresome time with your family, especially little ones. We arrived here early in the morning and the parking lot was half full and we bought our baskets (they only accept debit or cash) and went inside the orchard. There were many cherry trees that were perfect height for kids and adults, with different sizes of cherries on them. We spent almost 2 hours and since we were planning to pick both sweet cherries and sour cherries, we went to one of the staff and she redirected us to another orchard of theirs to pick the sour cherries. It was around 9:30-10 when we went to the other orchard and all the parking lots were full and there was a huge lineup for cars in both orchards to get in and big lineups to buy baskets and get inside the orchard. So, I suggest going in early in the morning. They have less sour cherry trees available and you need to spot them between sweet cherry trees and they're as delicious as the sweet cherries. They have very friendly and helpful staff that adds to the fun of picking your own cherries.

We've been coming to Cherry Avenue Farms since we were young. It would be a fun cousins day out and…read moreour families would just load up on delicious fresh cherries! It's so much fun and despite the large crowds, you're not really too crowded once you get into the cherry trees section. This farm has been up and running for over 220 years and it's amazing to see the family continues to do well and offer a place for Pick Your Own on a variety of fresh produce. I think it was $5 admission for adults and that amount will be deduced from your fruit basket if you pick anything. Typically, we pick a whole giant ton of cherries to gift to friends (and of course eat for ourselves). Staff here are great and everything is made easily accessible. If I had one little advise, it would be to offer more step stools and maybe guide on how to use. There were only 5 step stools in a very very large space and this one family hogged them all to just sit on. All the good cherries were up top and way out of reach, unless we did some climbing. I loved PYO farms as a kid and bring friends / plan family summer outings to these types of farms. It's just so nice to be outside away from technology and traffic. Love it here! The fruits are delish by the way.

Outside they have a great garden centre. It really is an all around place, and I haven't even mentioned all the vendors. Lots to choose from including some organic offerings. Check them out -- you won't be sorry! Lots of free parking too!
