H-E-B

Love this H-​E-​B! Can’t really go wrong here. They have everything I needed, well stocked. Come on a weekend and get lots of samples! You may find something you love.

Love my HEB!!! Always clean, always sampling out products and the staff is always friendly! I also love the fact that HEB in general does so many types of in store coupons! They almost always have Buy On Get One or Three! They always have good meal deals as well. Looooove the Hill Country Fare products as well! There ar re very few things that they make that don’t taste as good or better that name brand items.
We also use their pharmacy over other places

This is our family’s go to HEB for the past 6 years and its never let us down.
It does not have some of the fancier items like the newer locations, but those items are rarley needed.
This store does not get very crowded but don’t be surprised if your phone doesnt ring while shopping inside as cell reception is not good for most carriers in the store.

This neighborhood HEB has that small hometown feel. Parking is never an issue and lines are short and move quickly. Employees are friendly and quick to ask if they can help you. Excellent selection of items, too!

Nicest HEB I’ve been to. Located in a nice upscale neighborhood, the vibe is very intimate and southern. The deli, bakery and produce section is fresh and plentiful. Large stock of everything and I got exactly what I needed and more.

The look of this location is cool, because it’s almost like it was maintained to stay functional, but keeps its original look. It doesn’t have the super updated look like most of the other HEBs. This HEB has a wider location than a majority of others, but not as much as a Central Market. So it’s more like a Market Place. You can get all the local deals, fresh produce and more variety of items and especially wine and beer. Love that they provide local Texas brews.

I love my neighborhood H-​E-​B! I love the fact I can run in and get my shopping done quickly. No long lines, fast checkers! I can always find what I need in this lil gem of a grocery store!

If you’re ever wondering, «Where can I get groceries and not be swallowed whole by gigantic families with three carts?» then this is the HEB for you — here’s why:
This HEB feels like a small, friendly, local establishment even though it isn’t.
The organization is pretty good, not spectacular, but it makes enough sense. The deli is very fast. The produce selection is really great here, too. I do wish the meat selection were greater… that’s the big con.
The thing is, the selection isn’t as big as an HEB plus, but this is above and beyond the HEB Nogalitos downtown. Honestly, there were no kids, no loud people, nothing annoying. I’ll probably go out of my way to go here instead of McCreless, Nogalitos, or Military.

One of the few H.E.B’s I can tolerate. Not a lot of people in the store on most days. Prices are better and veggies are fresher. They do sell expired goods so pay attention to what you buy.

Love this smallish neighborhood HEB! When I first moved to the neighborhood, I was lured in by the bright and shiny HEB on Basse and Broadway at Lincoln Heights. However, I never even tried that one since I’ve stepped foot in this location. Maybe I don’t know what I’m missing out on, but this location has a really good selection of anything I ever need. Also all the employees are very friendly and always really nice. No complaints HEB!

Great supermarket. Fairly good meat dept and the beer/​wine selection is outstanding. No need to traverse to farther out, larger locations.

This is my favorite HEB in all San Antonio. The «partners» art not intrusive but always available for personal help. it makes me feel like I am back home in my small town. I don’t have to gather the energy for a major hike to gather my groceries because the store isn’t as huge as the others. I go during the day and never feel crowded. It has all the basics and a lot of the extra touches. Their prices can be higher than at other locations, but I can get in and out quicker because the store has less of a parking lot and less square footage. Nice.
Thanks for making me welcome.

This is my favorite HEB in my neighborhood. The service is always great and they always have plenty of everything. It’s also a pretty cool atmosphere, not your typical HEB style.

Handy-​B!
This place has some history. You can tell it’s an old supermarket. It’s changed hands a few times, and was originally another chain, other than HEB, so it’s different from all the other ones. The aisles are fairly narrow, and they don’t have quite the selection that the other stores have.
Their bakery items are fairly sparse, and they don’t have a very big produce section. The freezer section is a fraction of the other ones.
The pharmacy here is awesome though. The staff is exceptionally helpful.
There’s sometimes a train that runs around the deli department, it’s been going since the Handy Andy times. The store is always clean, and well lit.

Nice little store. Usually there are plenty of checkers at the registers. Not as complete of an inventory as the bigger HEB’s but nice for the basics. For me the perfect choice when I just need a few things. Parking can be a challenge. A little on the dark side in side too.

I love my little retro HEB! This is where I come for the majority of my grocery shopping. Yes, it is a bit small and has a crazy parking lot, however it has every thing I need and usually at lower prices than Lincoln Heights HEB or CM. Ive seen it busiest at 6pm or so, although I’m not home before that so who knows what it’s like during the day. Usually less busy by 7pm onward.

This is the best HEB in all of San Antonio. It’s small and set up well. I love that if I forget something I don’t have to trek all the way back to get it. I wish I could take this HEB where ever I move.

Love this H.E.B!!! Feels like you go back in time about 30 years when you visit here. Back when the grocery staff actually greeted you with smiley hellos and actually seemed to be interested in helping you find what you need. The exterior has tons of flowers and plants for sale along with other gardening needs such as soil, stylish pots, and various sprinklers. As soon as you enter the heb you immediately feel welcome and comfortable. You don’t get that «rushed» feeling I get at other modern grocery stores these days. This one is much more laid back and slower paced but with all the selections and varieties of a specialty grocery store. Fantastic wine selection and I love the deli section. Very inviting with a nice little café area with lots of tables and chairs where you can sit and munch. I also love the wooden ceilings and old flooring. Much more homey feeling than the modern warehouse design of most other stores. Even if this heb is slightly out of the way, go the extra mile, I think you’ll agree that it’s worth it. Reminds me of how grocery stores were when I was a kid. Maybe next time I’ll let my wife push the cart while I ride underneath.

I hate H-​E-​B for its stranglehold on the local grocery scene. Nevertheless, even I have to admit this particular store is pretty nice: it has better atmosphere — and the cashiers are more competent and pleasant — than at other stores in the chain.
Weird, wedge-​shaped parking lot — as Jeffrey noted, always crowded. And I don’t know whether to attribute it to the entitled, affluent community, or just the fact that lots of seniors (older than me, even!!) shop here, but the parking lot is insanely dangerous.
Easy access, though, to both New Braunfels and Nacogdoches — with traffic lights on both sides, to facilitate ingress/​egress.
Nice place to shop — just beware the geezers in their land yachts!

Which moniker do I prefer for this store. HEB Oak Park or Handy-​B due to its Handy Andy roots? Since I always liked the old Handy Andy I will go with the Handy-​B.
This store seems to be always crowded, I guess it is the narrow aisles or small by today’s standards parking lot! No matter the people it has a great feel as a grocery store and generally has everything I am looking for. The «partners» are always willing to help you locate anything. I just love the feel of an old style grocery store like this. Oh, by the way their prices are better than the bigger sister store down the street!
