Grange Fruit Market

This store is located in a good location and there is often parking at the front, but the overall shopping experience has been consistently disappointing. The product displays are poorly organised, many items are not clearly priced, and stock availability seems random from week to week. After moving to the area, I was hopeful that this would become my go‑to green grocer with the convenience of an attached supermarket. Unfortunately, the quality and consistency just aren’t there. While some of the fresh vegetables are acceptable, most of the frozen fruits and vegetables are of noticeably poor quality. They appear to have been stored for far too long — once thawed, the fruit becomes overripe within a day. With the already high cost of produce, it’s frustrating to spend money only to throw items away. On multiple occasions, I’ve had to discard watermelon, honeydew, and rockmelon due to poor freshness. The nectarines seem previously frozen, and the bananas are often overly ripe. Even the Indian groceries they stock — mostly lesser‑known brands — are inferior in taste compared to the original, reputable versions. Another ongoing issue is inconsistency. You may find a product one week, only to be told it’s “out of stock” the next. It feels less like a reliable grocery store and more like a trial‑and‑error marketplace. At this point, I’ll likely return to shopping at Woolworths and Coles, even if it means paying a little more. At least there, you know what you’re getting. I only wish Woolies and Coles offered a wider range of international foods.
