Soups and Sandwiches From Ocala Fresh Produce & Deli
After Ocala Fresh Produce & Deli closed at 1010 SW 1st Ave., a flyer on its Facebook page said all of its soups and sandwiches would be served at Ocala Downtown Diner starting Monday; the flyer carries no date. The diner's own website and Facebook page did not mention the change when we checked on Nov. 2, 2026, so call to ask what is on the menu. Read our report on the closing.
