Although I like to try a lot of different varieties, year in and year out the best to meet the criteria you laid out is Big Beef. It will outproduce Celebrity and the fruit are larger and tastier. When the tomato blights down here are killing one after another, Big Beef usually will keep on producing. 1st Prize is another that does good especially during the hottest part of the summer and fall.
I had good luck with Marianna's Peace last year but found it very susceptible to early blight if planted too soon.
I don't think anything can outproduce Juliette but that is one cherry that I can't stand; so I found a hybrid called Small Fry which produces a huge amount yet still tastes good.
