Superstition Ranch Market

Awesome place to shop! Friendly staff we usually see Tami who is just the sweetest, great prices on fresh (local?) produce! As long as my family lives in mesa we will continue buying groceries from this little desert gem!

This place is great! Great prices, fresh, even hard to fine items like heirloom tomatoes, green beans and tumeric root. In season items and a great fresh dried bean section. The softest homemade taffy, lots of local honey choices, this store is my favorite stop to stock up on fresh vegetables and fruits. Worth the trip! Don’t forget your berries in the back room.
Special notes for the Über Consumers: Bring a helper to hold/​stand your place in line if you need to flash fast through in a hurry, the snowbirds in the winter make the lines long and the parking lot can be crazy so watch out!

This is the CHEAPEST grocery store I have ever been to in my life! Always a great selection of seasonal fruit & veggies. I can fill the trunk of my car for less than 50 bucks almost every time. Staff is super friendly which is awesome. If you want to eat healthy, but don’t think you can afford it then definitely check out this spot for the cheapest produce in the valley.

Absolutely love this place! I just recently discovered Superstition Ranch Market and it is fantastic. They always have great deals, the place is easy to navigate, very organized, and they have a friendly staff. The produce is very fresh, and at a great price. It is definitely worth the drive for me to save so much money. The one tip I have though is to only buy at max 1 weeks worth of produce. Because the produce is so fresh it tends to go bad a little quicker. I am a jam maker and every batch I make I get my ingredients from here, and it turns out great every time! Definitely check it out!

Great Fruit and Veggie Market with a local feel that is worth a stop. Prices are typically much cheaper than your grocer, many times even cheaper than circular ad prices in the chain stores. This makes coming to Superstition Ranch Market worth the trip even if you are picking up just a few items.
Unlike other «discount» produce stores, I have not noticed any difference in quality or freshness from the items I have purchased here versus «super-​premium» grocers. Also, this is the place for local flavors such as nuts, honey and other tasty items.
Stop in and see how fruits and vegetables were sold half a century ago.

Love this place. Discounted fruits and vegetables. Good price on Taffy. Every time I have to work in the area I make sure to stop on by. Love to can and preserve food and we get to for some great prices.

So much cheaper than a grocery store. If you can handle not quite perfect fruits and vegetables, you can save a bunch shopping here.

Love this place, only market I go to stock up on produce!

This place is incredible. Super fresh fruit for super low prices! I got 8 pounds of strawberries, blueberries (for 69 cents), green pepper, red pepper, bananas, plums, a watermelon, and homemade salsa for 14 bucks and some change! This will definitely be my go to spot! Once you’ve been here you will never go back to supermarket produce.

I only live a few blocks from this place, heard lots of people sing the praises so I finally tried it for myself.
It’s larger inside than it appears from the outside. It’s basically a small grocery store built inside what was probably a vegetable stand from the 1940’s or something. It’s not like any modern grocery store, except maybe one in central America or Jamaica.
The impression I got looking over the produce is it’s mostly the exact same stuff sold a few blocks away at Fry’s except in worse condition. Most of the plastic bag roll holders were empty, lots of bruised and squishy food that should be firm. Waxed food just like at Walmart and Fry’s and Sprout’s, same exact crap veggies, except in worse condition. Nobody sells worse corn on the cob than Fry’s, SRM’s is one notch better.
Apples are not naturally shiny. Theirs are because they’re sprayed with wax, same as all the other stores, probably any hard-​outside veggie is also waxed. While their prices may be lower than Fry’s the quality is basically the same or worse. I would tend to think the shelf life of what you buy here would be shorter than Fry’s because so much of it is well on it’s way to the trash can anyway.
They got all sorts of veggies out of season so you know they came from huge refrigerated warehouses in california and mexico. This is likely not much of a local farm to the store type place. Sure they’re cheaper but the quality is much lower too.
I’ve seen discount grocery stores like this before, they buy in bulk, pennies on the pound of stuff that the wholesaler couldn’t sell or was returned by places like Walmart about to expire. They buy it cheap to move it fast. Do not think for one minute that the produce this place sells is any healthier or natural than the produce at Walmart. This place is like one of those ‘dented can’ stores. It’s a great place to buy veggies and fruit if you’re really poor.
I’ll tell you what this place would be ideal for, is if you were going to take everything you buy there, wash it and run it through a juicer the day you purchase it, then this might be a good place to buy veggies and fruits, just don’t think it’s any more natural or local than Walmart produce.

Incredible fruit/​veggie selection at unbeatable prices (literally).
It’s a bit of a drive and can get busy at certain times of the day, but it’s worth it if you’re doing a juice cleanse or juice daily (and smoothies). I wish there were more organic choices and some of the items can be very ripe (expire in 1 day).

Cheap and fresh fruits and veggies! Parking can be horrendous depending on when you go, but it’s so worth the trip. Just make sure you plan to cook /​eat everything soon. But what a great way to enjoy all the seasonal produce at a low cost!

GREAT place, very inexpensive, and has a Farmer’s Market type of feel to it.
The fruit’s and vegetables are natural, so don’t expect the preservatives or the other cosmetics you would find at your chain store in order to make the place bright and pretty. This place is as down to earth as dirt!
Great place for anyone who is into juicing!

This place is a hidden gem. The produce is basically half price in comparison to the conventional grocery stores.
Almost all the produce is very fresh and organic. The fruits are a bit TOO ripe but as long as you eat them quickly, you’ll definitely save a lot of money shopping for groceries here.
One bad thing is you really do have to pick and choose the good ones out of the batch and they’re not as clean and organized as a regular grocery store. That’s not really a problem for me and I kind of like that better because that’s how you know they don’t use a bunch of chemicals to shine them apples and etc. It’s like shopping at a farmer’s market!

So worth the drive! The prices are the lowest you’ll find anywhere. You will end up buying more than you were planning on but still end up paying less. Go. Go now.

This is the ONLY place I go for produce. I can’t bring myself to pay traditional grocery store prices, when I can get a bag of oranges for a dollar, or bell peppers for a quarter each here. Everything is dirt cheap.
This place is understandably popular, so try to avoid the weekends. The checkout line goes around the store! The perfect time to go is Friday morning. They have all the fresher produce ready for the weekend rush, but you will actually have space to shop.

This place is amazing! For $ 16 today I got1 watermelon, pineapple, butternut squash, spaghetti squash, 3 onions, 5 apples, green beans, 7 cucumbers, 10 bell peppers, 3 eggplants, 6 bananas, and 5 Roma tomatoes.

First thing, this place is way out in the East Valley. That’s only one downside.
They have a large parking lot. So you think people can drive to an area where its obvious that there’s a vacant space? No, seems parking near the door is preferred and some folks can be obnoxious about it too. Great prices makes us cuckoo I guess.
I come here when I get the bug for canning something. Keep in mind, if you have guests, a party in the works, or maybe you’re putting together a dish to pass for a family reunion, this place can help minimize the expense.
Once inside you’ll find fresh produce, fruits and veggies, with prices so low you’ll take a second and third look. They also have jams, sorghum, honey, cheeses, bread, candies, and much more.
Organic Strawberries were 3 for $ 1.00 today.
Blueberries were 3 for $ 1.00 (6 oz.) or .79¢ for the 8 oz container. Raspberries were 2 for $ 1.00
Cherries were .59¢ lb
Just really great prices on quality produce.
The place gets busy but after 2 p.m. it’s just chaotic. Parking lot is the worst.
In the morning it’s busy, and with shopping carts filling quickly it’s easy to understand why you may ocassionaly bump into or get bumped into while reaching for something or simply turning away.
So be careful, don’t go to fast, try, not to be in a hurry.
I think everyone’s first time here is a real eye opener.
Get there soon, you’ll kick yourself for not going sooner.

OMG — so the other reviewers were right — I got a whole basket of fruit for less than $ 6. I couldn’t believe it.
Strawberries — 2 for $ 1
Kiwi — 4 for $ 1
Apples — 2 lbs for $ 1
Grapes — 2lbs for $ 1
Bananas — 2lbs for $ 1
Definitely on my once or twice a week store to hit for fruit/​vegetables.
Need to spend $ 5 or more to use electronic pay (i.e. CC/​Debit).

Oh wow, what to say about ranch market. Now that I’ve moved from Mesa I miss it so much! Literally I have lived in two major farming states in my life. Northern California originally and now Nebraska and I have never been able to get produce as cheap and fresh as when I lived in the middle of the desert! Go figure.
This place is not at all a best kept secret, so if you don’t want to fight the crowds, coming in early is ideal. Whatever you do, avoid the after church rush!
The market is inside but it’s not an air conditioned building, just fans. It can get pretty warm in the summer time. The produce is all laid out in big crates and there is some refrigerated items in refrigerators on the far right side.
Some if the most unbelievable buys are the bell peppers, oranges, and berries. Bell peppers commonly 4 for a dollar or better, berries two containers for 3. Just a few examples. Everything is a fantastic price and quality is more often good than not. Every now and then I’ve had something spoil the next day or found the stone fruits to not be flavorful, but rarely.
The guys restocking are usually really helpful and everyone there is very friendly. If you live in the area and haven’t checked out ranch market… You’re missing out! Get to it!
