Florida Citrus Center

Message: I recently visited the Florida Citrus Center, hoping to experience a taste of the famous Florida citrus and explore a unique souvenir shop. While the establishment had a clean and adequate restroom, my overall experience fell short of my expectations.. Starting with the positive aspects, I must commend the Florida Citrus Center for maintaining a clean and well-maintained restroom. It's always a relief to find a facility that meets basic hygiene standards, especially during travels.. However, when it comes to the store itself, I found it rather underwhelming. The abundance of souvenirs was undoubtedly extensive, but I couldn't help but feel that I was walking through a typical tourist-type store. Nothing particularly impressive stood out, and it lacked the charm or uniqueness that one might hope for in such an establishment.. One of the main reasons I decided to visit the Florida Citrus Center was the expectation of tasting some fresh citrus juice. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to find that there was no fresh juice tasting available during my visit. It's disheartening when an establishment renowned for its citrus fails to provide such a basic experience, especially considering the excitement that comes with trying locally grown fruits.. Adding to the disappointment, I discovered that the citrus was out of season during my visit. While this is understandable given the nature of seasonal produce, it would have been helpful to have this information displayed prominently before entering the store. It was a letdown to leave without being able to savor the flavors of freshly squeezed juice or purchase ripe and juicy citrus fruits.. In summary, while the Florida Citrus Center may have a clean and adequate restroom, the lack of fresh juice tasting and out-of-season citrus left much to be desired. The store's souvenir selection failed to impress, making it difficult to differentiate it from countless other tourist-oriented shops. If you're looking for a truly memorable citrus experience, I would recommend exploring alternative options that prioritize freshness and offer a more unique and engaging visitor experience.

Message: Good stop for affordable souvenirs! 3 t-shirts for $12! My friends are going to love These cute drink tumblers! Got both for less than $25! Restrooms were clean and stocked too!

Message: So, believe it or not I've never been to one until today. My baby took me here today on our way to Alabama. I had fresh orange juice, orange fruit, a grape stick, and a honey stick. Also, they have a couple baby alligators here. Oh yeah, I also got some hot sauce with a lucky alligator foot on it. I'm so happy I stopped here, and I'm going to try and visit more of these in the future.

Message: Fun stop to make. Alot of neat things to see and the free OJ was delicious.

Message: Super cool stop along the long drive home from Florida. Loved the baby gators and great souvenirs. Best part is the Georgia peaches and other fruit!

Message: Adorable souvenir store. We stopped in to see the baby gators. And look around. They have a ton of different souvenirs ranging from sea shells-disney themed stuff. It's easy to navigate and not to cluttered. However the bathroom was pretty gross. But there was only 1 young lady working there that we saw.
