So far, HEB has exceeded my expectations on most everything from the shopping experience to prices…read more The location is great right off of IH 10. This location seems to be the heart and soul of Mont Belvieu. The layout is wonderful. Everything is easy to find, and the selection is top-notch with an emphasis on Texas centric products. My only gripes are the prices of fresh meat and seafood. They seem to be a bit high, considering the inflation is coming down everywhere. I also wanted to try the Mi Tienda tamales and found them overpriced, and the masa overpowered with cumin almost inedible. I love the Boars Head selection in the deli, and the bakery does a great job with baked goods. The gas station in the parking lot is very convenient, and I find the car wash very efficient and decent priced. Overall, HEB is a pretty good place to shop!

Which grocery store in Houston is the best of the best? You guessed it - HEB's wealthy relative -…read moreCentral Market! Unfortunately there's only one in the city, but it's "centrally" located (get the pun?) off Westheimer and 610 near the Galleria. We frequent this grocery store a few times a month, and though the products are more expensive overall than your normal Kroger or HEB, the selection is amazing and worth the visit. Here's what I love about Central Market: the produce, salads, sandwiches, meats, seafood, wine, cereal, yogurts, bread, coffee, ice cream, spices - actually pretty much everything. Even their flowers are incredible. Now here are some pro tips; listen carefully: - if you want the real, full CM experience, go on a Saturday or Sunday. You'll feel like you're at Costco waiting in line for samples and trying to push your cart without running someone over. But if you want a quiet, peaceful experience, go on a weekday during the day. You have to work, you say? Take a few hours of vacation or personal time off and head to Central Market. It'll be better than your last few vacations. - they have an app and it's amazing! You can save 20-30% each shopping trip with their offers and coupons. Make sure you add the deals in your app before you go to check out. (This part is a little annoying.) - ice cream section: buy the Hellenika Ube coconut. Just do it. Taste it and you can thank me later. It will change your life. If you want to overpay for it, fly to Seattle and find it at Pike Place Market. - stop buying spices like peppercorn and coriander seeds in bulk that are stored in bottles and jars. Go to Central Market and just buy exactly what you need for your recipe. You'll spend 24 cents for this and 58 cents for that, etc. Not $5 for a jar of spices that will lose its flavor or expire after a year. And the big question everyone asks: Central Market or Whole Foods? Whole Foods has way more locations, but CM takes the cake. It's just amazing. Trust me.

Well, Baytown Buc-ees was my 4th in a series of stops around the southern United States. My only…read moreregret was not stopping at the one in MS, but I really wanted stop in Biloxi and get to New Orleans. I had also just stopped in Alabama and spent a fair amount of time at that Buc-ee's location. Baytown Buc-ees was a stop I made at about 3:30pm on 6/10/26 and I knew I was going to battle Houston traffic to get to Austin! I was able to purchase some nuts and snacks here and the store was consistent with other stores in the chain-- tons of food, super clean restrooms, mesmerizing merch, and plenty of gas pumps. Along with my love of Buc-ee's, I also have a ton of perks at Starbucks and was pleased to see that there was a store next to Buc-ee's. I was able to get a cold brew and be on my way in 30min. Fastest Buc-ee's/Starbucks stop on my trip! I guess it possible to do a quick stop at Buc-ee's, but before I left I saw a manager and asked her if this was the first Buc-ees and she said in a polite TX voice, "No sir, we are store #34" She also let me know that the first store was in Clute, TX. Knowledgeable staff!! Since I live near the first Chipotle I was curious. I didn't get to visit the 1st Buc-ee's store or the first In and Out Burger on this trip but there will be more. :) I did visit the first KFC and museum in Corbin KY! lol

Either he would us or he would charge us double the tax on an item that was already taxed, for example if something was $2.99 plus tax when you get to the register he would charge you $3.23 plus tax so your total would end up being around $3.50 and that isn't the correct tax rate on something that's $2.99 plus tax. I hated seeing his face every time I went to this gas station so much so that for the last 6 months we lived there we would either just drive to Krogers or drive to Target because we were so tired of money being stolen from us

It's got all of the features you'd expect such as a bakery, meat shop/deli, wine shop, fresh vegetables, and household essentials. I spotted plenty of cooking utensils and a large section of baby items. I purchased some Lysol wipes as I was staying at an Airbnb that needed a good wipe down. The standout buys on this trip were the chocolate chip muffins and sparkling water! The muffins at H-E-B are just as good, if not better than the ones at Costco. Additionally, I got a 12 pack of sparkling water cans for less than $4. I bought the refreshing coconut flavor and they're comparable to La Croix. Business Center's H-E-B Plus! also had dietary supplements and vitamins. I bought some fiber and contact cleaning solution near this section. Overall, the store was spacious and they didn't rush us out the door even though it was close to closing. A 20, 15, and 10 min. alert would sound over the loudspeaker but it was pleasant. Staff were friendly and professional. I bought a reusable bag with the state of Texas on it and an armadillo, to which they reassured me that it's a sturdy bag. My only concern was that there was noticeable glass in the parking lot! It was very dangerous and needed to be cleaned up ASAP. Thankfully, I didn't cut myself or pop a tire. Note: This location has a few gas pumps near the parking lot for convenience!
