La Michoacana Meat Market

BUTCHERS / MEAT MARKETS

LARGE CHAINS
HEB

If you’ve lived in Texas long at all, you are likely familiar with this store already, but if you’ve just arrived, you may still be waiting to hear of this regionally-adored (yes, really — adored) grocery chain. With lots of locations, high-quality store brand products, huge selection, high community involvement, and convenient features like curbside pickup, it’s easy to see why this is the go-to for many Texans.

ALDI
1760 BRIARCREST DR, BRYAN
While it is a chain seen throughout the country, ALDI offers a somewhat different experience than your average grocery store. They focus on keeping prices low by offering exclusive brands (though they do offer some national brands as well). This is a cozy place to shop cheaply, while still finding lots of interesting new things to try.
