Dan's Farmers Market - Alameda, California

Great place for affordable seasonal fruits and veg, but I wouldn’t shop there for most other grocery items.

Cute local market, nice variety of fruits, vegetables, and other groceries. Some things (mostly produce) were pretty reasonably priced while others seemed pretty expensive - if you’re willing to shop around you can get a decent amount of food without spending too much. We got enough veggies to make a week’s worth of meals for around $20 (no meat or dairy in our cart).

They offered discount prices on very ripe and almost spoiled food, which I personally appreciate - we waste a lot of food.

Excellent spot for fresh fruit and veg. Much better quality here than at the chain grocers. Bulk section is priced decently. Their pantry and fridge items are spendy, but the convenience is great when I don’t want to hit multiple stores to make up a meal.

You know that annoying fruit that looks all good in the store but the never gets ripe after you buy it? Well, That is NOT the case if you buy your fruit or any other produce here. It's delicious and the staff is friendly and you might find an ingredient you didn't see before. 🙂

Great selection of veggies and produce. The staff are friendly and fun. Highly recommended.

Picked up an assortment of fruit and veggies from here while waiting for an order from Main Squeeze and everything we bought was dry, super bland and lacked taste.
Apples, strawberries, mangos, blueberries, avocados, onions, tomatoes…
And the order from Main Squeeze was no better so can only assume they source from here.
Super disappointing.

Dan's Farmers Market is a one of a kind place to get my groceries and I will always come back. The employees are kind, and are always willing to help you out. The produce is fresh and never lacks in quality, they also have really good juices and other products! The thing I really love is the bargain rack with 99 cent bags of ripened produce, it helps me save on groceries and supports the business without wasting food. Thank you Dans!

If you're still buying produce at the big chains you're missing out on all the locally grown summer goodies. This place has the best and freshest that you can get and hard to find items. Chuy and family bring all the local farms to one place. You just can't compare!

I just love this place. Beautiful, fresh, produce. The heirlooms and basil are incredible as well the stone fruits. While there, also be sure to check out JP fish market!! Best cooked shrimp I've ever had , consistently fresh and amazing as well as the Orange Roughy. In fact, I've always been very happy with all the fish from JP
