For several years, I lived in this area and shopped at this Aldi. The store was and is a massive resource in that it not only provides groceries but also random home good. Historically, my encounters with the staff have been neutral to great. Recently, the store seems busier, but has maintained the same number of staff. I love popping by when I am in the area to find random goods like an Insect Zapper for less than $5. I've had it for 2.5 days and it has already saved me from countless mosquitoes and flies. read more

ALDI - Outside of Aldi - Grocery Near Me - Houston, Texas

See all

I have never heard of Aldi Grocery Stores before. It picked my curiosity as I drove pass its construction site to Foodarama few months ago. Kudos to those Yelpers across Houston area who prepared me to have a better experience. So, I brought my own bags, quarters for the cart and a hope to find something useful. I guess it was wrong to come during the grand opening weekend. I saw many curious shoppers just like me, as they picked up an item from the shelf looking puzzled. I quickly glanced from aisle to aisle but nothing piqued my interest. I felt like shopping at a dollar store - very few brand name products. I was gonna just get a couple of snacks. But once I saw the line zigzagged in the cashier area, I put them back and walked out. Prior to arriving, I did some research online. I know by simply looking at the weekly circular won't lead me to a correct shopping decision. Those advertised items were still too high for me as I'm a careful bargain hunter. Although Aldi is not on my list of preferred destination for weekly grocery, I still consider coming back for the special buy items. I eyed on a few items online at the next week's sale. read more

Oh my gosh! I just love this little grocery store! Now I don't think I'd come here at night (location) but I will be back! Ran in for some quick items. They have a small selection of all products (not like a mega H-E-B), but I like it!!!! Simplicity at its best! Thy also have a variety of home items (gardening, lunch boxes, etc). The checkout line began getting long - and poof another register opened! Easy breezy!!! Bring your own bags, they don't have any. Yay for reusing! Shopping carts - stick some money in the slot and it is returned to you when you bring the cart back! Yay! Stealing the cart deterrent! Remember, basic to the core, but items are cheap! It's a win for me! read more

I went to ALDI to buy some fruits and vegetables and I must say that I was amazed by the good service I received from the worker Alberto, I thank him for his kindness and time. read more

Not located in one of the nice areas of Houston and also not with the same variety of offerings as the other main grocery stores. You can procure a lot of German origin food and also local brands. Be sure you have a quarter on hand to release a shopping cart. The area for fresh vegetables and fruit is not great though. read more

ALDI - Visit was July 8, 2018 - Grocery Near Me - Houston, Texas

See all

I love Aldi! I've never had any issues here. Staff is always friendly. Items are always extremely affordable. They usually have most of the items I need and if not there's a Walmart down the street. I'd rather buy as much as I can at Aldi because the prices are so much better than other stores and then just make a trip to another store if they don't have an item I need. read more

Horrible customer service. On my first and only visit, I was unaware of their shopping carts requiring a quarter to unlock it. So, I searched around the registers for an available cart. I want allowed to use the one I found. So I loudly asked well where is a cart I CAN use? Outsider they told me but no one explained their insane quarter policy. read more

Horrible. Cashiers are the opposite of interesting, intelligent, and stylish. I understand if ALDI chooses to hire crazy people. Maybe there's a tax incentive. Very unsafe conditions during COVID-19. Cashier refused to use sanitizer and refused other safeguards such as gloves. The local customers that frequent this location are equally if not more daft than the employees. Corporate office is investigating the mental state of the cashier. When I mentioned the ALDI experience, my family asked if it was located on Beechnut. Apparently, everyone in Houston knows about this ALDI. LOLOLOL read more

I love the simplicity of shopping without much overhead cost at Aldi. Bag-free (BYOB). The food prices are lower, as a result of this efficient cost-cutting. Amazing low prices! Amazing LOOONG LINES with one person working at the check out lane! When it gets busy, 20 carts line up, wrapping around the store. It was insane the last time I was there. Carts were bumping into each other: some in line to pay (up the aisle), and others were trying to shop in the aisle. The manager is also the only clerk working the registrar. That's bad management. At that point, customers were very rude in line. I was about to abandon my things and leave. It's a hit or miss store experience. Remember your Quarter. read more

Would leave five stars just for the store itself, love aldi!! But the check out employee was really rude(white guy with long hair) didn't get his name but did not seem very happy to work there, bad customer service. read more

I remember shopping at Aldi while living in Germany. Same concept, a quarter for the cart and bring your own tote bags. I love and hate this location. It has lots of organic and gluten free options for a great price. However, I'm not impressed with their produce. It's not very fresh. Milk is $1.69 and eggs are under $1. There is a great variety of German Specialty Food such as brats, cheese and smoked meats. Be prepared to stand in line, there's usually only one or two cashiers working, lines get really long. read more

Good prices. Long long slow lines to check out. Not a company known for their customer service. They only have 2 check stands open.

The food selection is very minimal but the savings are great I would still recommend people to come here if you want to save a few dollars on some good house items. Management tho has an issue, while on my visit I noticed that there was an issue with their cash registers, they were pinging for their manager but it's like he was not there or just plain ignoring their calls, they did let us check out since we been waiting for longer than 10 minutes. Oh...bring a quarter and shopping bags. read more

I just love Aldi. This location is very nicely stocked and everyone there is so nice. I am glad that more are opening around town. I can buy organic items at a very low cost. The Aldi brand is really hit or miss though. I like to at least try different products in the stores though. The German chocolate is amazing. read more

I do like the products a great deal, the meats, chicken, and produce are fantastic!! Unfortunately, at the location at Beechnut and Bissonett, is not the best for customer service. Specifically 3 times I've had to use their bathroom facility and it wasn't clean, no toilet paper; just plain filthy. Yesterday in particular was bad, and if I could have waited for an associate to be called to the front and clean I would have, but I couldn't and had to clean the toilet seat with soap and water on a paper towel that I found in the men's room. When I found an associate afterwards and explained, he saw nothing wrong with that. I asked for a manager, he never came. So I left. I don't know that I'll return to this store, since I normally would stop before going home after work. read more

Let me start by saying this was my first adventure into an Aldi. 1. Bring a quarter with you if you want to use a shopping cart. I did not have a quarter do I had to carry my items. No hand baskets either. 2. The selection of items is limited and all "off brand" names. That does not mean they are bad but having never heard of them I have no idea what is good quality and what is not. 3. No free bags either. You pay for your bags. Again not a huge deal but if you don't know that it comes as a surprise. 4. Your items are not bagged at checkout. You must take them to a counter after checkout and bag them yourself there. Awkward, confusing and uncertain mess for timers. Prices are good but not knowing the quality of the brands I can not judge if I am trading quality for price. Not sure if I will return. read more

I love coming here because the prices are so affordable. I save about 50% compared to going to Kroger's. It's not very big but it has all I need. They have their own brand and so if you're looking for a specific brand it might not be here. I come here mostly for veggies and fruits and essentials. I love their chocolates, ice cream, nuts, oils, and spices. read more

If it was minus cero star I would give it to Aldi i had a bad experience, not only as a shopper, but also after the not responde and lack of sensitivity of a complaint a made to their main office (or headquarters, about the following; On July 22 I had the worst experience ever! I've been a loyal customer of your store since the day you open for business, your employee Brent who also happens to be a supervisor, was very disrespectful and rude, and I want to file a formal complaint vs him! I'm a 73 year old senior citizen and this gentleman mistreated me and also embarrassed me. I asked him kindly to let me get some milk while he start to check me out, and he totally refuse that, telling me that I would hold the line, I I acknowledge that but also told him that it won't take more then few seconds, that' I've been waiting on line for to long. (all your other cashiers had always been very kind when that has happened some other times) so he completely ignored me cutting me out and calling the next customer behind me, so I went and got my milk anyways, thinking that he might change his mind, and honor my request, so when I went back on line, and when the next customer was unloading her merchandise I cut in front of her and apologizing to her I told her what had happened and she totally agreed with me and didn't mind cutting in front of her at all, and that she saw everything and she was with me on this, so when I was ready to resume checking out, Mr Brent start doing so, but he start handling my items on my hands and I told him that it would be hard for me to get everything like that (I didn't have a cart, just my bags, but you know you always get more that you want when you go to the store ) (I bought about 20 items some of those bulky) that if would be kind to provide me with one (again all your others cashiers always help me with that. And Mr Brent told me that, that wasn't his job, that I was supposed to have one already, so after all of that, I was very aggravated and told him that, that was a very poor customer's service, and I need to talk to his supervisor immediately, but to my surprise, and with a big attitude, he Mr Brent told me that HE was the supervisor! (like what am I gonna do about it!!) so I decided to walk away leaving everything behind cus as you may understand I was so aggravated, and mad, etc. And as I was exiting your store (locate in the corner of Bissonnet and Beechnut, in Southwest Houston ) I notice that I have left my umbrella (it was heavenly raining ) so when I went to retrieve it, my groceries were still on the check out band, and I decided to go ahead and get em, after all I've already spent almost an hour in your store and I didn't want to come home empty handed . It would be just one more aggravation to all of the above said, and I'll be the great looser getting home without my groceries that I badly was needed. Therefore I'm writing this, hooping to hear from You soon!! I just want to add that we spend more then couple hundred dollars a month (sometimes more sometimes less ) at your store, not only for convenience in all ways, but also for the quality of food and prices And "customers Serivce " (before this incident ) that you always provide!! Making Aldi our favorite store, on top of Walmart and some others around my neighborhood. Once again I hope to hear from you soon Sincerely Arturo Pinto This was the formal complaint o wrote to Aldi, and as today August 19 almost one month after, I haven't heard an apology, from them Shame on you Aldi and it's employees including the CEO. read more

Worst wine selection ever. At least they have St. Arnolds. Please someone put in a Trader Joe's.

Cheap groceries. We got a week's worth of meals for $42. (Two adults). VERY clean and bright. You wouldn't think it'd be so nice and clean for the prices. We bought fresh poblano peppers, green peppers, potatoes, and zucchini and all were super fresh, didn't have to dig for good produce at all. Not very busy at all even on a Saturday at 11 am. Got in and out quick. Plenty of lanes open; no waiting to check out. This is my new go-to store for sure. read more

I believe that some of the previous less than positive reviews were not being realistic of what Aldi proposes to offer. Aldi brands are quite acceptable for the price charged. I was very impressed with the prices/ quality of the produce offered. The store was clean and I didn't wait long in the check out line at all! I will be visiting weekly. read more

ALDI is one of my new favorite grocery stores. Their brand's quality is actually quite good and the prices are incredibly competitive. They are also really eco-conscious, meaning they don't have bags, so don't forget to bring your own! You'll also want to bring a quarter if you want to use a cart. (don't worry, you get your quarter back at the end) read more

We have Aldi stores back home in Tampa so I'm used to the concept. Don't expect any frills or extra deals because this grocery store is very basic and to the point. I typically like to come here for fruits and vegetables especially when I'm making fresh juices. I usually shop with reusable bags but make sure you bring some along as well as a quarter to borrow a cart read more

I really love the items and savings on your stores and this location is the closest to my place; however today August 15, 2018 I got robbed at the parking lot while loading my groceries into the trunk of my car. Everything happened in a timeframe of less than 7 seconds, when I noticed a speeding car, it was already too late. I went inside to ask for help and they told me that this is been happening lately and that they even have some sings on the door warning customers about theft. My suggestion here is that if you have surveillance cameras inside the store, and this is happening often; wouldn't be a good idea to place some security cameras facing the parking lot? I don't feel secure anymore, going to this location. please people be alert and very careful at this parking lot! Feeling sad read more

This is my new favorite grocery store:) You "rent" a basket and shop the deals! They don't have as an extensive line of products as most stores, but it is a great place to buy the basics. For those of us that like German products, it's a plus...check it out. read more

Oh how I love this store! Low prices, great selection of organic and gluten free items. I really love that I can now eat healthy and not break the bank trying to do it. This store is such a blessing!! Lol read more

Once you know what to expect at an Aldi (bring a quarter for the cart and your own bags), this Aldi is cleaner and nicer than the one on Hwy 6. Although they need to improve their checkout line management. The fresh fruit at this location is much better quality and lasts longer. I've bought tools and patio furniture here at 1/4 the price of other locations. I cut my grocery bill by 1/3 by shopping here instead of HEB, although I still go to HEB for fresh meat and alcohol. read more

On a 'fixed income' , Aldi, the best place too shop! They even sell tennis shoes! Great prices, great employees (Bissonnet location)!!!

I was entirely unfamiliar with Aldi stores so my visit today was a bit of an eye opener. I should have turned around and left when I discovered that I had to insert a quarter into the shopping cart to use it but I did not. What I found inside confirmed the misgivings that I had outside. So-so prices and a bunch of " *comparable to" products. I was expecting a grocery store but it really struck me as being much more like a dollar store except I had to stand in a long line here. The HEB Pantry and Belden's are about the same distance away so I can't imagine that I will ever be returning to this store. read more

So often when shopping at this store, they have only 1 checkout open. The line needs to get pretty long before another checkout opens. Often that other person is in an isle stocking. They will continue stocking or doing what ever they are doung before they will stop and come open the other chrckout. Making you wait up to 5 minutes. Today I stopped in for 3 items. There were actaully 3 open checkouts. One with a "this lane closed sign". She was checking the last customer and told me she couldnt check me out because she was busy. This is not the first time one of the emploees of this store put me off and made me feel as a customer, that me and my business is less important than their agenda. Aldi has to do better in costomer service read more

Great quality, low prices. Especially eggs, milk, produce. Love that german efficiency, you need to bring a quarter for the cart and maybe your own bags. read more

I was doing most if not all my shopping at walmart but lately have been giving my Aldi on Bissonnet a chance to compete, and am I glad I decided to do so. I cannot believe I underrated Aldi so much or thought Walmart was a better choice. Not any more. Probably the biggest deciding factor was Aldi has been, at least when I stop by, not crowded to the point of needing a line outside and inside the designated one line leading to all registers goes very fast. I have discovered their offerings are very abundant and of a high quality. I love their Half & Half, the creamiest of any out there; love their macaroni sald, delish; love their organic vanilla yogurt; LOVE the Winking Owl cabernet savignon; all their fresh produce; their saugest and wurst; their canned seafood items; etcetcetc. All very comparably priced to walmart's and a lot lower than Walmart's. Thanks, Aldi, I am going to be a very frequent customer from now on. And, btw, your staff is a big plus too! read more

I was excited after reading about this German discount version of Trader Joe's. After visiting one I'm less excited. The store brand stuff isn't very good. The prices aren't that low. I guess if price is super important you might like this place. Also, they seem to assume people carry change, otherwise there is no way to carry your groceries. Not even a hand basket. read more

First off, they advertised Calif Ranch Olive Oil 32oz for 9.99 but it was not in the store, so emailed them and they basically say this store doesn't support the market. Fine, you think this store is below market, then why not tell me where to find it at another Aldi?! So much for ever contacting them about anything. Their "100% Organioc Orange Juice" tastes like week-old Tropicana, their Barrisimo coffee has no body, no flavor, no nothing. Plenty of frozen food that's filled with unhealthful ingredients, produce that's weeks away from being ripe/edible, a made in Germany rye bread that made me ill, and more. I've had way better shopping experiences at Walmart SuperCenter and HEB nearby. read more
