Topping the list is Freshfields Farm. Located at 5555 University Blvd. W in Englewood, the specialty food spot is the highest-rated inexpensive grocery store in Jacksonville, boasting 4.5 stars out of 217 reviews on Yelp.

"Since opening a small meat market in 1973, our business has evolved quite a bit," per the history section of the business's Yelp profile. "We offer the freshest produce, meats, seafood and dairy available." Much of the grocery store's products come directly from farmers and meatpacking plants, and you can check out the latest products to arrive at the store here.

Next up is Mandarin's Hoby's Honey & General Store, situated at 11362 San Jose Blvd., Unit 13. With five stars out of 10 reviews on Yelp, the grocery store has proven to be a local favorite for those looking for a budget-friendly option. 

"Founded in 2011, we are a modern, country general store...[and] 90% of everything in the store is made in Florida or Georgia," states the business's Yelp profile. The grocery store specializes in local honey, jellies and jams, relishes and condiments, spices and rubs, teas, pickles and other "old-fashioned Americana foods." Amish goods, soaps, candles and artwork is also available. 

3. New World Market

New World Market, a grocery store in Glen Spring, is another much-loved, budget-friendly go-to, with 4.5 stars out of 17 Yelp reviews. Head over to 5161 Beach Blvd., Suite 6, to see for yourself.

Yelper Andrew G., who reviewed New World Market on Nov. 18, wrote, "This is a great market with a hot food restaurant inside. The food here is incredible and authentic. Check out this hidden gem next time you're in the area."

Yelper Jay G. noted, "I come here often to purchase a few things I can't find elsewhere. Korean wine (black raspberry and pomegranate) and homemade Korean side dishes (kimchi, garlic greens, daikon radish and cucumber kimchi). There's a wide variety of other Korean products and foods. Worth visiting."
