HEB- this is a Texas darling, from humble beginnings, now has an impressive grasp on the Texas grocery store market. From smaller stores to the expansive HEB Plus marketplaces, HEB has everything you need, and even their own brands which are also quite good and sought after by TexPats. They understand how logistics work, too and during times of shift and mania, like a hurricane or the pandemic, HEB works to keep people fed, watered and moving forward. This is a great company with strong values and good food. 

Whole Foods- the same that says it all. The original flagship location on 6th and Lamar is enormous, and of course, there are many speckled around town as well offering the same things you have come to expect from this now food giant across Central Texas and beyond. 

Trader Joe's- a lower priced counterpart to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's offers more in the realm of whole and organic food products at reasonable prices. There are just a few locations, but they make up for it in size.

Safeway- this is a national chain, that many people are familiar with. You do still need your Safeway card for the good pricing!

Central Market- a fun and exciting way to go shopping, Central Market, only a handful of locations is an epicurean market kicked into high gear. It reminds me of the Wegmann’s platform with a wonderful produce and dairy section and gourmet options for deli, and pastry. You can even take a cooking class, go listen to live music on the patio or grab a meal at the Central Market while you're there. Oh yeah, and they cater.
