Who comes to a grocery store and doesn't buy groceries? Me!…read more I love Lowe's Boxcar Coffee and Beer Den. Tucked into a corner, it's a great place to relax with your favorite beverage. The booths are comfy, plenty of high tops, and a few seats at the bar. The coffee is excellent. I'm a purist, but flavor fanciers will love the available options. I'm going to try the beer, because I can buy in recyclable growlers - and it's tasty. But the attribute I like best is that while it's not silent, there's the usual hubbub, it's quiet enough to have a normal volume conversation with a friend or a group. How nice to have a cuppa with friends, and catch up, without shouting over the TVs, blaring music, and arcade games of most places. Plus, there's fresh pastries just down the aisle...

Located at the intersection of not 1, not 2 but 3, three roads... ha haha ha... (A little Lebron /…read moreThe Count mashup humor there) Lowes can cater to and elevate all of your grocery needs. I must admit as a former chef then afterwards living in Kansas City and Austin TX for 25 years and frequenting large grocery stores with almost all of the things I've needed under one roof; I've been very disappointed with almost all the grocery stores here. So, after my mother convinced me to stop by Lowes I was pleasantly surprised with a chain that "gets it" here in town. Walking in I found the place to be extremely clean with some of the nicest employees I've come across since being back in town. Moreover, they're rather smart; strategically placing fresh baked focaccia bread close to the entrance, enticing one's stomach to influence the power of the purse. Next, I challenge anyone to resist their smoked foods as the air is heavy with the sweet perfume. Please note that Lowes carries a LOT of items customers will NOT find at other stores. From the towns best selection of cheeses, rack of lamb, watermelon radish and on the list continues, I encourage all those reading this to shop this store for those harder to find items. As for instore made items, I've tried a few and would like to report my limited findings. First, I bought a loaf of olive focaccia bread a noted weakness of mine. I found it be pillow-y moistness, bouncing back to the touch with a good fragrance however the amount of rosemary in it will repel even the most persistent of demons (odd refence). I bought another loaf of parmesan and I had the same issue, just way to rosemary which I happen to enjoy. I wish they had an alternative without the herb but other than that it's awesome. Another success in the bakery was the Bavarian donuts which I highly advise not buying as they're downright addictive. Soft, moist and a perfect chocolate to cream ratio these things are illegal in 5 surrounding counties! As for protein, I broke down and got the smoked chicken wings and macaroni salad for lunch. Again, this would be a resounding success if it weren't for one overwhelming ingredient; in this case salt. I'm of the belief they marinated these wings in the dead sea as it tasted as if the cap to the salt shaker fell off when seasoning these wings. Otherwise, these wings hit on all notes as they were moist and had the perfect amount of smoke. As for the mac salad, everyone has their version of what are perfect ingredients so I'll just add this, they perfectly cooked the pasta. That is to say the noodles weren't soggy or cooked to death; rather al dente which is perfect for the summertime favorite. As for addins I think they're ok but that's very subjective. Again, a certified hit. I did grab the sushi one day but I'm not a fan of grocery store sushi for the simple fact that the rice needs to be warm and the fish cold as it creates a contrast in the mouth. That said I got the fried shrimp sushi and it was just like any other store, not great. Nothing taken away as I realize most people are happy with this. My point is if I'm craving sushi a grocery store isn't the first thing that comes to mind as a true restaurant has better quality fish and a more diverse menu. To summarize Lowes is a great place to obtain those harder to find ingredients with the best in store created foods among all the competitors out there. The people here are very nice and willing to help however please note you'll need to obtain a card to get the discounts, the one down side of Lowes, is they're a little more expensive. However, "it's a small price to pay" for leveling up on the quality meter. This is my favorite grocery store in town and it's not even close.

Yelp Family, What a…read moreyear it has been. I have so many reviews to share, and somehow we're already six months into 2026... so let's get started. Yesterday, I went with my sister and dad to my dad's appointment. Afterwards, my sister insisted we stop at Piggly Wiggly to grab some food. She kept talking about how good their deli food was. Usually she's right, but I'm thinking... there's a Piggly Wiggly where we live how different can it really be? Well. We made our way to this location on a Monday afternoon, and it wasn't busy at all. When we got to the deli, there was only one person ahead of us and the food looked EXTRA fresh. (Jackpot.) I'm standing there looking at everything and thinking... wow, this all looks good. Pork chops, baked chicken, fried chicken, sweet potato casserole... I could keep going. Presentation? Solid. When it was my turn, I went with baked chicken (a thigh and leg), yellow chicken rice, and sweet potato casserole. Doesn't sound like a lot, right? HA. Wait until you see the serving size. My plate was LOADED. What I appreciated most was how friendly the staff was while serving the food. They were so kind and didn't have an attitude while fixing plates (and if you know deli counters... you know). They made my first experience a great one. Overall, I really enjoyed the food. The baked chicken was good. The sweet potato casserole? I honestly could have eaten an entire pan of that by myself. The chicken rice was good too, my serving had a lot of pepper, but I still enjoyed it. My dad and sister got food as well, and they both enjoyed theirs. Would I come back here? Yep! I spent $9.99 on a plate I've been eating off for TWO DAYS. That's how much food they gave me. Next time, I want to try the fried chicken because that looked really good. If you're tired of drive-thru food and want a hot meal that actually feels homemade, I definitely recommend checking out the Piggly Wiggly deli!

Most other items are less expensive than civilian supermarkets as well but some things we can get cheaper off base. Overall, it's a good commissary.
