I ❤ this place! The best selection of fresh veggies and hand cut meats. I love the fresh seafood department and the staff is always friendly. The cut and core my pineapples for me as well as my watermelon. I LOVE this place wish it were closer to buckhead but overall best value for weekly shopping.

I ❤ the Dekalb Farmers Market. It is my Zen place (except if I end up there on a weekend Friday thru Sunday...way too many people). They have just about everything you could want to craft the ideal meal. From fresh fruit & vegetables to fresh fish to butchered meat and all kinds of dairy. You will be inspired to get in the kitchen with one visit. Would submit pictures but no photography is allowed on the inside of the market.

This place is amazing! The produce is always fresh! Their coffee is amazing! The pastries are divine! I wish that it wasn't CASH ONLY to purchase the pastries and coffee. Sometimes I don't have cash on me. Take a jacket. It's a bit frosty inside because they have to keep everything so fresh.

The BEST place in Atlanta to shop for fresh veggies, fruits, meat...really everything! Your dollar goes a long way and pretty much anything you want including International items can be found here. Avoid going on the weekends if you can. It can be a mad house!

I love the Dekalb Farmer's Market and have been shopping here for years. The produce is fresh and cheap and there's a wide selection of fruits, vegetables and meat. The fish is fresh and the milk is so good!!

I usually bring out-of-town guests here for the spectacle, so I don't mind the crowds at all. In fact, I take a good peak at other people's baskets and end up circling back to get it. Best place to buy fresh produce for international cooking and to spot country flags. Bring a coat whenever you go, especially if you bring kids, it's chilly in there. They sell bulk spices and unique flours (ground chickpea, sorghum four, blue cornmeal, gluten-free flours). Bring cash for a cup of coffee or to get a samosa in the cafeteria. Over the years, their prices have creeped up. Still, you can get items here that sell to restaurants like pork belly. Alas, low-profile ethnic ingredients start out cheap but when they achieve superfood status they end up getting pricey. Case in point, coconut oil and moringa (Filipino poor-man's food). For now, collard greens at 49 cents a pound-a bargain and are so huge you can easily use the leaves as edible wraps for fish and meats as you would use banana leaf.

What CAN'T you find at YDKFM? My only complaint is that it is SO crowded, especially on weekends, but if you go at opening on weekends or late evening on Monday or Tuesday, you can avoid the crowds. Oh, and bring a sweater. Brr!

Whatever fresh fruit, vegetable, spice or protein you may be looking for, you will find it here! Bundle up though, it's easily a cool 60° inside!

What's not to like? Most every fruit and vegetable you can imagine. My family loves their whole wheat bread, already sliced, and they have a great selection of coffee (whole bean, or they will grind it for you). Go early on the weekends to avoid the crazy crowds.

One of the best markets in Atlanta for organic meats, cheeses and veggies. Excellent selection of bakery items and wine too!

stale

I purchased a carrot cake and it was horrible. The cake was so dry and hard I could not believe it. I paid 15$ for a cake I could not eat. Do not try to return anything because you will not get your money back. They are selling old stale cakes. Very sad.

I wish they spoke more English and were more friendly.

It's okay. Nothing too spectacular but nothing too bad either. The employees speak little English and they aren't that friendly. It's more like buy something and goodbye. (if that makes any sense at all.)

They need to have a branch in Alpharetta

This store has the cheapest selection in organic produce. It does get a little crowded on weekends but the quality and price of produce makes the trip worth it.

Great for hard to find items

I agree with previous reviews about the smell and the taste in the bread especially. We simply won't purchase breads or cheeses there at all. But for hard to find fruits and vegetables, as well as specialty canned items, this place is the best!

BAD SERVICE & EXPENSIVE!!

The man outside the entrance has a scowl on his face. He gives out bad, negative vibes, and never smiles. The experience staring from the entrance is horrible. They are not cheap. You can get anything the have elsewhere.

Many, not all, are downright rude. Don't need to be spending my money there anymore.
