The Bread Basket Food Store

Sells expired eggs, doesn’t care. Don’t shop here, guy is rude as can be. Store is filthy but I should have expected that walking thru the parking lot. Shop elsewhere.

I’m relatively new to the area and I love this place. The clerks at the counter are friendly and love my jokes. By nature I’m sort of what you would call the class clown. I enjoy cutting up but not all convenience store clerks (like at 7 – 11 on burnet rd) appreciate my witty banter. But I know the guys at Bread Basket are always ready to crack a smile and giggle with me. It makes me feel good to be appreciated.
Unfortunately I’ve got a pretty serious (almost 30 years in the making) addiction to nicotine. For a short time, I tried the e cig’s but let’s face it folks e-​cigs are just not the same. The past few months there have been some pretty fabulous full moons. There is nothing more relaxing than walking to the Bread Basket, cracking some jokes with the clerk, buying some smokes, and walking home smoking a cigarette while looking up at the moon.
Something about that walk back to my new place with central air and a stackable washer dryer, enjoying a smoke, and star gazing is very humbling. It’s an amazing planet we live in and each day I’m doing my best to make it better. Bread Basket also has a not so shabby wine selection. LOL.

The guy who runs this store is extremely anti cyclist. Not only does this neighborhood store not have a bike rack, but they don’t let you lock your bike to the only viable option (the gate). BOYCOTT THE BREAD BASKET until he apologizes to the cyclist community and installs a bike rack.

Bread basket, I love you. Adrese and omar are some of the friendliest, nicest guys ever, and the alcohol selection rules. Always clean, decent prices… what more can I say?

You remember walking into those gas stations filled with candy and all sorts of other goodies when you were a kid? Well, this place is well stocked for those who can’t make it to the grocery store for lack of time.
The beer selection is nothing to sneeze at either, unless you are allergic to the dust collecting on the shelves. I’m a beer snob and have no problem finding quality beer when I’m in the mood to chill at home and drink some brew.
This store is not the cleanest convenience store that I’ve been to but the service is always friendly.
There is a laudrymat next door which keeps the store pretty busy.
If you happen to need laundry soap you’ll find it here.
This place also cashes checks for those without checking accounts.
