I can't believe it's taken me this long to write a review of our "new" grocery store. We've been…read moreshopping here since November 2011, when we relocated to Caldwell from Bryan TX. I love this grocery store! I really really thought I wouldn't given that it's smaller than any HEB, and it's located in rural Texas, which, quite frankly usually means fewer organic selections and dubious cleanliness. I couldn't have been more wrong! The organic produce selection is surprisingly good, as are the "weird" brands we'd become accustomed to at Village Foods. We've found everything from our favorite tomato paste in a tube, to choice and prime beef, which you can't find even at HEB. The store is clean and the staff is moderately helpful. They were running a really cool promo where you'd save stickers with every purchase and get Lock N Lock plastic storage containers with completed sheets, but that expired last month. I hope they run another one soon; we got some great stuff! Given our other options here in Caldwell (zero), I feel like we lucked out here, and it's pretty awesome not to have to drive half an hour for a great selection of products.

Although a little more expensive than other grocery stores, it's nice to have a local grocery store…read morethat carries such a wide variety of products. This store offers a lot of good sales and deals and I love the annual promotions that have allowed me to save stamps toward knives and lock n' lock containers. This is an awesome incentive for local customers. The staff is always very friendly and helpful too.

I even left an item behind and he ran outside to give it to me. I have been to other 99 cent stores and they were nowhere near as amazing as this one.

Do you see Walmart having this problem NO because they do their job? This store has the worst smell ever it always smells like spoiled milk, and the floor is dirty. One day when buying grapes and cherries the bag was filled with mold. Most of the can goods be expired. I witness the manager yelling at many employees I don't understand how they do it cause I could never work for someone like that. They work hard and still always have a smile on their faces. I pray those employees find a better place to work cause they deserve it.

On Monday, 5/27/2013 I got in an argument with the proprietor of this gas station…read more After swiping my card, he mistakenly entered it as a $5 prepaid purchase. So my card wasn't charged, and he wasn't going to get paid. Immediately after starting to gas-up, he cut off the process and came out into the parking lot, explaining the error. But I never got my $5 worth of gas, which he refused to acknowledge. So I may have got a quart of gas. He came out and demanded payment for $5. I gave him $5 and drove off. I don't think the proprietor has much regard for the good old folks in the CS/Bryan area. It's a shame that vendors who come into this area feel they have to cheat in order to stay in business. I really felt cheated and disregarded by his attitude.

When I'm Zipn in and out of College Station, I'll often get gas or convenience store stuff here,…read morewhich is actually a Shell. I was feeling like a Shell of my former self, so I came here for gas and then I felt better. This is a cute little Shell right in the middle of the central heart of the impressive and eclectic city of College Station, right by the mega college campus, where the A&M students will stop when they're close to campus and get some high price gas. Often on their parents' credit cards (where's the lie). There's much cheaper gas around town, so I don't recommend filling up here, but it's conveniently located if nothing else.
