Lee's Farmers Market — Attraction in South Carolina

I've been to this place twice. First time was extremely disappointing but I decided to give them a second chance believing that anyone could have a bad day. My mistake!! The 2nd visit was worse!! Besides just getting a sandwich in their eating area, I went inside to pay and look around. I quickly realized this was not a place for the faint of heart, it was disgusting to say the least!! The jars on stained wooden shelves were sticky and several had popped tops!! No telling how old the boxes of pastas were but I wasn't about to buy one and watch the bugs come out when I poured into a pot!! The produce had a roach come out from the tomatoes so I passed over all the produce. The cheese was moldy and the meats slimy to the naked eye. How this place passes inspections is beyond understanding since it's filthy, unsanitary and just plain nasty!! Better off buying store bought brands so at least you'll know they're fresh or within their "sell by" dates. How long their products have been festering on the shelf is unknown! There is one tip they should begin following immediately though. When you have quasi tables set up for people to eat their deli sandwiches it might be a good idea to occasionally wipe down those plastic table cloths and sweep the floors. And when the graveled pothole filled parking lot is a muddy mess, as it often is, it might be time to think about investing in paving the lot before someone gets...

This rambling structure with worn wood floors and a maze of metal racks, wood shelves and produce coolers has been serving the community since 1997. Locally owned and operated this wholesale retail outlet offers a large assortment of imported pasta, tomato sauce, olive oil, jarred syrups, sauces, butters, jams and preserves. An authentic NYC deli claims center stage offering quality cuts, salads, pre-made meals and imported cheeses. A nearby tank offers live lobsters and a couple racks display some imported wines. Surprisingly limited is the fresh vegetables and fruits. After wandering aimlessly and finding no strawberries and blueberries we inquired from a gentleman stocking produce. He was then able to go the stockroom and return with a punnet of local fresh strawberries and a pint of blueberries from Georgia. And that was about the full interaction that staff gave us. Add a vine ripened tomato and we were out the door at the cost of $14. We have had better luck and selection at roadside stands at much better prices. Some bakery items are available and deli sandwiches are sold during the lunch hour with seating on the porch. Worth the drive just say you...

While we have always enjoyed shopping here for produce today we had a bad experience. I bought 1 cantaloupe, 5 tomatoes, 5 ears of corn, 2 lemons and 2 avocados. I paid and then get out to car and skeeter comes out the door saying I owe 40 more dollars for a total of 47 dollars. Apparently I was only originally charged 7 dollars which I did not know because I had not looked at my receipt. I went back inside and the place was lined up and he said he had forgotten to hit a 4 in front of the 7. This whole thing felt not right. I still had no receipt of how the price was arrived at and i was rushed in and out. We have shopped here many times but will not do so again. I still gave it 2 stars because the produce is very good.....but the way he handled that transaction was wrong. My lack of shopping here will not effect his business but maybe this review will warn people to check their receipts before leaving this business. I am happy to pay what I owe but this was not the way to...
