On a trip to Durban, unable to find a decent place to buy food due to most places being looted, decided to try food lovers and what bad service. The security at the entrance was super helpful and bubbly. Thereafter stood at the deli for 10 minutes while they packed food. No one greeted or offered help. Then proceeded to bakery where we got help. After some minutes. Get to the till and there are no clients, greeted the cashier and she just ignored us. Did not ask us if we wanted a bag . When we asked about stickers, she simply shook her head. Croissants were stale and no eating utensils given for cakes. Disappointing experience compared to food lovers Richards bay.

Music is blaring loud. Cannot hear. Overall shopping was good. I came twice this week and there is NO Nescafe Classic. I called, no answer. Let me know if you will honor the price. I want 4 bottles.

Nice and spacious shop. Clean and tidy. Has ample parking. Nagiahs butchery is also in the store. Wide range of vegetables for those who are vegetarians. Best time to shop is early in the morning as its not very busy.

The go to store to get all my fruit and veg for the coming week. Nagiahs meat has a good selection - especially when it is braai time for us.

Review №16

Overall its okay. The problems are that they run out of their specials a lot! So you go there thinking there are some good specials, only to find they dont have. (Eg coffee)The shop does not sell any beef or pork, which means that you need to go to Bluff Meat Supply just down the road. They do have a fish section, but prices are sliggtly above average. My suggestion is to call ahead to see if they have the specific items. So as a veg shop its good. Nice variety, good prices for fruit & veg. But overall i give it a 50% rating

Im very impressed with how quickly the Springfield branch has recovered. This store always delivers the best in fresh and offers great service. Id like to give a special recognition to a cashier named Sashmika. Whenever I am at the store she goes above and being to ensure that I am content before leaving the store. We need more employees like her who are always willing to help and always have a smile. Always a pleasant experience. Keep up the good work FLM team!!!

Really cant fault this place. Great butcher catering to Hindu needs of no need and pork. Great fishery. Great affordable fruit and veg. And great groceries. Even the spices look great. And did I mention affordable for great quality. All in all a great Shopping destinations Nd the Springfield branch trumps any other Food Lovers Market due to its inclusion of the Nagiahs butchery inside it. Great store guys.

Selection is great here for fresh veg, meat and fruits. Guards at the exit can be very rude and make a person not want to come back. We were stopped and throughly searched whilst he let others through without checking, didnt appreciate it at all.

Review №93

Ive never had a problem with food lovers market until today! Ive been craving for a carrot cake for the longest time now and to my luck, you guys had some today.I politely asked the lady at the bakery section who was serving me if the carrot cake was fresh( like any customer would do) and she could have been honest and said no which wasnt gonna be a big deal because I would have easily continued with my shopping but instead she decided to lie in my face and say yes, everything is fresh and has been made today so I obviously got myself a slice.I get home and discover that I cant even poke my fork into the cake, thats how hard and stale it is and I would be more than willing to send a video of me trying to do so. Im so disappointed because I feel l was deceived by your employee and now Im stuck with a stale slice of carrot cake that I cant even eat.

Good fruit and veg assortment. I wouldnt buy meat from here. The packs I bought were quite expensive, badly marinated ( only sections of the meat were marinated) and generally did not taste good. It was also extremely tough to eat.

Review №98

Maybe the staff were on a go-slow when we went. 10 minutes to get 6 bread rolls, similar story with donuts, and someone was blasting Bhangra at full tilt... but everything was tasty, and fresh.. so.. just be prepared to wait a bit a guess

They have lots of stock but it is quite expensive. R60 for 4 oranges is highway robbery.

I found the store to be very clean and well organised. Signage was very clear, and the store was very well stocked. My only negative is that there isnt a wide variety of meat, albeit well stocked with what they do stock
