Spicer Brothers Produce

Good selection, sometimes even have a groupon coupon. They also carry a lot of less common varieties.

Check out their selection before going to the big chain stores. Always fresh, very good on price and usually has specials on selected items. We have bought things here for years with great customer service and a unique country atmosphere.

Good selection of local and other produce mainly in an outdoor setting with an abundance of fruits and vegetables. Great prices occasionally with in season goods. Good all year around if you are in the area.

This is what a produce store is supposed to be. They carry what is in season. It is always fresh, delicious and reasonably priced. The fruit lection (peaches, nectarines, apricots) are delicious and they have the best selection of apples from the local farms.

I don’t know why I haven’t reviewed this place before… it’s consistently awesome. The produce and fruit is beautiful and their prices are super reasonable. The people are considerate and friendly, and they have a sense of humor!
My highest recommendation for this local gem.

I love having this place right in my neighborhood, made especially convenient due to it being across the street from Tony’s fish market.
My one suggestion to Spicer would be to take more care labeling stuff. Sometimes things are local, sometimes they aren’t, and often I’m hunting around trying to figure out if what I have is local, or organic, or conventional, or from Mexico, or what. I shouldn’t have to hunt down the employees to ask.

My one stop place for produce. Amazing quality of produce and as well priced as WinCo! Spicer, I think I am in love with you!
Kale = perfect
Apples = from Hood River
Eggs = cage free for less than $ 3!
Service = always friendly
LOVE Spicer :)

Not a bad reason to drive down to Oregon City. They have every kind of apple you can think of. There are tiny bell peppers. There are golden beets and ginormous zucchini. Otherwise, the produce selection is pretty much what you’ll find at your local grocery. The tomatoes were not in a great state. But for the most part (except for grapes and berries), the prices are excellent. Also, there’s a small selection of baked goods, a cooler with milk and local cheeses, salsas, and an ice cream cooler. The nicest thing is that they give you a red reusable Spicer’s bag to take your produce home in. The cashiers are real pros, and can pack a huge amount of produce into that red bag, without anything getting squished. If you live in Southeast, you should probably take a drive down and check it out.

I can’t really say Spicer Brothers is good OR bad. I didn’t buy anything. Main reason — I couldn’t get anyone to help me! There was one clerk ON NEW YEAR’S EVE! She was too busy checking people out. And I didn’t see anyone with a name badge or produce apron that was working the store inside or out.
I didn’t see ONE sign that stated whether the fruits and veggies were ORGANIC or NON-​SPRAYED. I buy mostly organic whenever possible and I completely stay away from apples and potatoes (anything with a thin skin) that has been sprayed!
They had a lot of apples that were from Hood River — but again, nothing stating whether or not the apples had been sprayed.
I would like to try again when I have the opportunity and maybe by then, there will be someone to actually talk to and assist me with any questions that I might have.
Here’s a suggestion: PUT UP SIGNS THAT STATE WHICH TOWN/​STATE THE PRODUCE IS FROM, WHICH FARM (if local) and WHETHER THE FRUIT/​VEGETABLES ARE ORGANIC –or– NOT SPRAYED vs. SPRAYED.

The best. Period. Best produce, best employee’s, best prices. Hit Spicer Bro’s for produce, go across the street to Tony’s for fish and you’re all set. Five stars all around.

Ok, forget the 4 stars… I love this place! Who needs organic when you can have everything local and in season. I haven’t been able to beat the quality and prices anywhere else, and the people who work here are just SO friggin’ sweet and friendly. It makes me HAPPY to shop here. :)

Terrific source for cheap produce! Their apple selection in the fall is astounding. The store is about 80% produce, and 20% useful foods like dairy products, bulk honey, bread, and canned foods.
When they have an overabundance of ripe bananas, they slash the prices. I pick up as many pounds as my dehydrator can handle, and dry them for snacks. Yum!

E-​gads! This place sells everything you need for DIY taco Tuesdays (sans meat)!!!
I love this place for that simple fact. Sure, it’s always good to eat your broccoli, but what fun is that? The peppers are bright and delicious, and they always seem to have a nice variety of avocados for fresh guac. Oh, and did I mention that they sell tortillas? I just did!

I love going to this produce market, the quality of local produce is great! And the prices are super cheap. They have just about any kind of produce you are looking for.

This place doesn’t look polished like a supermarket, but don’t judge a book by it’s cover! Great prices on quality produce.
I can’t bring myself to give Spicer Brothers five stars because of some fruit flies and fruit that was a little past its prime inside the store. Gross! Stick to the huge bins of seasonal produce outside and stock up!

I haven’t been in here since I was a kid, of course we’ve driven by it about a million times and always said one day we would check it out… well we FINALLY did… and BOY am I glad we did! They have an awesome selection, especially the apples! They have apples I’d never even heard of before and they’re all local and not coated in wax like at the grocery store! The prices on almost everything were super cheap, there was only one thing we found that was like, «hey, that’s not a really great price», and it might have just been because the item was out of season.
For example… the ginger root was a dollar something a pound… a vast difference when compared to New Season’s 4.99 a pound, and the Granny Smith apples were .49 cents a pound… compared to the other cheapest place I know of which is WINCO at 1.19 a pound. I’m sure you all know this but I’ll be captain obvious and say it anyways… That’s over a 50% savings!!! WOW! Did I mention they were local Hood River apples? Right.
They had an interesting assortment of grocery items inside, some organic, some gluten free, some vegan. Things like noodles and salad dressing, and what-​not.
I don’t know, it was fun to poke around and look at everything. Oh, and the people who run the place, suuuuper nice! Super nice! Like, even if they weren’t so cheap I might still come here just to give them my business.
So, in summation, great selection, small local business that stocks surrounding area local produce, super prices, and excellent employees/​customer service… We will definitely be returning when we need to stock up on produce!

I have been passing this place for years. My sister and aunt have always raved about it, but I have always passed it up. Today I finally stopped by to see what all the fuss was about. The produce was super cheap. I was sad they lacked at having organic food, but at least most of it was local! Maybe it is because I have been shopping at New Seasons too much, but I was flabbergasted by the amazing prices! The best part of the experience is when I went up to the front I told the checker how pleased I was and that it was my first time there… and she gave me a free reusable Spicer Brothers bag!
Now whenever I’m down in the OC I will be stopping by for some fresh produce!

Nice little farmers market that is year round. I am born and raised in the south so I am a bit picky about watermelon. I asked a gentleman about yellow meats and if they were available. He said yes they were and they should be getting some in from Hermiston soon. I said that would have to do since I hadn’t had ANY luck elsewhere. I told him that I thought Hermistons were overrated though. He grinned and said well be careful them is fightin words! Lol.

Like to buy my produce here. Just wish they carried organics!

I fell in love with this place as soon as I walked up to it. They have tons of selection to choose from for anything. Their prices can’t be beat, if they do, than I would check the quality of what you’re getting.
I did have one bad thing go wrong. I bought some strawberries and the next day they had mold on them. I took them in with the receipt, but luckily the guy working noticed me from before, and he took the old one and trashed them, then allowed me to go get another pack. I respect that 100, no doubt.
I love how they are located right across from the fish market as well. I live in the neighborhood up above, so I walk around and go from place to place with my Jake.
The staff is great, except one girl. She came off as smug to me when I had my dog inside. I don’t think it should matter if he is inside or out. If I can walk around and grab things to purchase outside with him, than it shouldn’t be a problem for me to do it inside as well. I think we need to be a little more pet friendly considering this is Oregon. I go in now and haven’t had an issue with her.
All in all this is the place to go for your fresh veggies and fruits. I always try to support local places, and it doesn’t get any better than this. It’s definitely worth the drive if you don’t have a produce stand near by.
