The employ disrespectful and rude staff. They employ a large Spanish speaking population that use the excuse of not understanding or speaking English as their "first language" as a reason for their unprofessional attitude. In addition, their was one woman who dismissed my concern about her rude attitude by waving me away with her hand in my face. The reason/cause for the attitude: I asked her to verify the cost of the items she quoted me because I thought the price was a bit off. As you know they don't ring anything up but keep the price to memory, calculate things in their head, and give you a price. As a customer, it is my right to confirm the price and total. As a native Spanish speaker, using a language gap as an excuse not provide good customer service is not an excuse.
I spoke to the manager who immediately heard my complaint and apologized. Although I tend not to patronize stores where I am disrespected, the manager salvaged the business relationship.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 83619161Jul 30, 2022
This place is amazing for produce. The prices are cheap and the quality is fresh. You may have to wait 10 minutes to get a basket but it really is worth it. This will be my go to place from now on.
They accept cards now!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 13, 2020
I've been to just about every one of the produce junction's in this locally owned chain from the beginning 30 years ago! The one thing that's the same across all of them is that you get good value for the amount of produce even if you have to chuck a piece or two into the compost pile.
What's sets them apart and garners a five star review is the fact that they have a large parking lot that is shaped well and easy to navigate compared to many of the other ones. Then surprise of all surprises when you get out of your car the front edge of the store looks like it was architect designed. Picture this :
Large tall windows that bring wonderful light into the store and make you feel welcomed. Once inside the surface area for two lines for the fruit and veggies are very long compared to other PJs. Much easier to line up
And the final and best thing about this place is the employees are very friendly here.
It's only 30 minutes away from my house and as the other ones that I go to are in the 15 to 30 minute range anyway, I think I have found my new go to Produce JunctionHelpful 8Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0 - Henry J.PA, PA01May 14, 2023
Poor quality. I have been going to Produce Junction in Glenside for a number of years but seems over the past year that the quality of the produce has declined significantly. I don't know how many times I have to throw away one or two of the items in the bags Just recently I purchases cucumbers and potatoes and had to toss a few of each. I know they are less expensive then supermarkets but if you have discard some produce, are they really cheaper

They always have everything I want when I go there. From fruit to flowers to vegetables. Highly recommend it!

I've thrown quite a few fundraisers in the past few years and have had a very little budget to work with. Trips to Produce Junction, specifically this location have became something I've done often...
PJ's as many of you know is a great place for not only dirt cheap bulk fruits, veggies, garnish items and bundles of fresh herbs, but also for ridiculously inexpensive florals. In other words, a great place to throw together a complete party on the cheap! The only catch is, you need to use the produce quick, like within a few days and you should get there first thing in the morning on a Friday before a weekend event for the freshest flowers and also for your pick of the best variety.
I've been to my fair share of PJs and this is by far my favorite. There's and entire room for plants alone and another section for just stems. They have the largest section of florals and plants out of all the locations I've been to. They also have some rather large ones such as tiered topiaries in the spring for example. They always have seasonal items too! I've also been here when they're unloading fresh batches of goodies so if you don't see something or need more of something, just ask. They often have more in the back!
PJ is ideal for juicers! I know first hand just how many fruit and veggies go into one fresh juice. The amount you get for your money here is insane. I mean, an entire pound of fresh ginger?! Crazy! You'll also find some fruits and veggies to make you step out of your comfort zone. Each time I'm here I find a new items I've never heard of before and I'm a huge veggie and fruit eater. Try one out each time! I love that about PJ!
All Produce Junctions are cash only. There is and ATM on site but the fee is $4 or so. Come prepared with cash and count along with them as they bag. I've had a few instances where they over charged me.Helpful 8Thanks 0Love this 7Oh no 0 - Elana R.Lansdale, PA02Jul 18, 2022
Fruit and vegetables are cheap and good enough. They have one of the stupidest policies though--if you bring your own bag, you have to do your own bagging. I asked if it's because of COVID (as I stand there wearing a mask and the employee is maskless). She said no, it's because I don't know where your bags have been. I'm confused as I look at the dirty $20 bill I'm about to hand to her. Come on people--this is 2022...we don't want to punish people for bringing reusable bags.

Fresh fruits and vegetables.
However, make sure you read the weight on the item that you purchase.
For example, if it says 2 lbs for $2, make sure you check if a box is one or two lbs before purchasing.
There's a huge parking lot so you won't feel the need to find parking.
I will come here again. About half of the place is full of flowers and plants so if that's your thing then you should defienely cocome here.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
