I was driving down Buford hwy after unsuccessfully finding what I needed at an Asian grocery down the street and almost looked over this. I am glad I stopped in. They had a better selection and better prices than the place I had tried earlier and I was able to find a few things that I hadn't been able to find at the Asian grocery. I'll definitely be back when I have some time to look around and figure out some truly interesting dishes. You can forget about online ordering and finding specialty grocery stores: this place has everything from around the world with better selection and better prices.
Pros: Selection, Price, Organization
Cons: none, really. It could be closer to my house but thats more a problem with me than the store.

This is my favorite place to go shopping... great produce, 100s of fresh fish to try, and various aisles with different ethnicity food. Go there and try something new, for a great price. Great source for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Latin American food. Only downside is they don't cover middle eastern or Indian very well.

I LOVE this place! I can find all kinds of food items that anyone would be hard pressed to find in any popular grocery or supermarket. They have a HUGE array of fresh produce; even stuff I've never heard of! I really like that they categorize the ethnicity of the foods as well as the types of food. It makes the shopping experience SO much easier. The prices are quite competitive and comparable for the most part. The only down side is the outside looks a bit shabby , especially the parking lot. But I have to say, maybe it's one of atlanta's best kept secrets. If they spruced up the outside then maybe it would generate too much traffic (more than is there already) and then maybe prices would be compromised and it would become too commercialized. So if I have to put up with a below par exterior to get good value on the goods, then so be it. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who likes or needs foods from most anywhere in the world.
Pros: value, availability and variety of items,close to expressway I-285, categorized aisles makes finding items easier
Cons: outside is left wanting, crowded

What a great surprise! I was going to the Dekalb Farmer's Market every Sunday 'til someone at work reccomended the Buford Highway Farmer's Market. The fruit and vegetables are wonderful and the prices are fantastic. The seafood, fish, shrimp, crab is amazing. They have wonderful prepared sushi and kimbap, lots of good prepared Korean foods. My only complaint is the parking lot, very trashy. If you judge by the outside, you'll leave. I wish they would clean it up. It's also crowed like the DeKalb Market but it's worth it.
Pros: Variety and Price
Cons: Parking lot is trashy.

We love the Buford Highway Farmer's Market. There are aisles for every ethnic cuisine, and tons of pre-packaged (read: junk) food from all over the world. The frozen food section is huge. We always come here to stock up on fresh cheese, produce, and our favorite international candies and cookies. Where else in the city can you find coke bottled in Mexico? Nowhere. Check out the dishes, accessories and appliances too. This is a great place to find an unusual gift. Saturday is free sample day!
Pros: HUGE Selection, Free samples, Unusual items
Cons: Crowds
