However, Central Market - which considers itself a place for people “really into food” - is a hybrid where you can both pick up food to get yourself through the week or dive into specific or specialty items like blue grits, a bright gose, and dried squid ink noodles. You’re hard-pressed to find a better option if your grocery list includes grits, beer, or spaghetti. Sometimes that’s all it is and all it needs to be. H-E-B - which proudly states that “here everything’s better” - is a great place to shop if you’re looking at food as a source of sustenance. At the core of both companies, slogans can come across as Don Draper doublespeak, but when done right, they can offer a quick window into what a particular company stands for. At a quick glance, the mini-chain looks like it’s H-E-B’s answer to Whole Foods, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.
It’s H-E-B’s smaller grocery chain, Central Market, which is easily the best general grocery store in Texas.Ĭentral Market has only 10 stores across Texas, in or around Austin, Houston, and Dallas. And no, it’s not Whole Foods, the Austin homegrown store-turned-chain that’s currently being watered down by Amazon.
As someone who likes the Texas-based supermarket mega-chain quite a bit, I’m here to tell you there’s a grocery store built in Texas that’s miles ahead of Howard E. Everybody in Texas loves H-E-B, except for contrarians and Publix stans.
