When I was in college thirty years ago this was the store I went to. That area of Austin had a lot of rough patches. The whole thing is pretty much gentrified now, I can see why they are doing this.
I think there may be a huge Whole Foods in the area.
HEB used to be the “smaller brother” of the more numerous Handy Andy and Piggly Wiggly food stores in San Antonio.
I wouldn’t shop there, especially at night. Not with a pool hall. It’s not safe.
I still go to this one for some stuff, paper goods and such are cheaper than wal mart or Costco and they have a lot of variety...pretry much the monthly stock up trip with a run to central marlet or whole foods 2x for fresh stuff and good meat
I’m surprised about the HEB complaints...never had a bad experience with any of them and the company is run by good people
