“ This place rarely disappoints. It had been a while since I had been here as I am rarely in this area anymore. They had a few great sales such as the bone-in pork butt. Meat is so fresh. They had a few other great deals for items on sale this week. Unlike H-E-B, they are still selling (for now) the 1836 Farms half and half. Just a great store and a model for great consistency. ”
“ Great selection and personalized service. This location has a few more cheeses than Southlake and they carry blueberry danish which Southlake does not ”
“ Get the peach pie! It was so delicious when warmed up and with a scoop of ice cream. The crust was so good and I'm usually not crazy about pie crust. Moving on, I came here for the first time and wasn't sure what to expect but there's so much to look at and try. They have a coffee bar, different roasts, a burger bar, cold food bar, breakfast bar and pizza bar, taco bar, a tortilla bakery, regular bakery, everything you could every need to build a charcuterie board, groceries, they have it all. I ended up getting a chicken burger - made on the spot and very good. Loved the roll it came on! I got the pie of course, a muffin which was also delicious, and sushi. My only regret is coming here knowing I had to be somewhere else soon so my time was limited. I will be coming back to browse slowly and try more things! I think they also have cooking lessons. There's a schedule posted right by the entrance. Anyways, try the peach pie! Or try them all. I know where I'm coming for my holiday pies this year! ”
“ This my favorite store. Great employees, everyone is always so helpful and personable. They have really good events as well! I just attended the Holiday market and had really good experience. Everything always tastes good and has quality from their baked items to their ready to eat. I highly recommend the rustic apple cake, it's my favorite. It's a clean store, everything is always in order and neatly placed. I always look forward to purchasing groceries from here. ”
“ We went to try their Burger Bar here for lunch, next to their dining area. I ordered Bleu Bonnet Burger with side of fries and soda. So yummy. The fries are crunchy and delicious. Serving Staff is friendly and helpful. Nicely decorated and well lighted place. We're going to try the items in their supermarket area. I will keep you posted. Went to their fruit section and coffee area. So as their bakery section. What an amazing experience seeing a different style of their supermarket setup. ”
“ Stopped at this Central Market location cause it's in my area. Plus I love the service, fresh, and sweet produce they offer. I ended up sampling/tasting a few of the red wines that the store was promoting as well. Brandi was very inviting. I enjoyed conversing with her about the different wines. ”
“ Wow, what a wonderful day! Happy 30th Anniversary Central Market! CM made our Date Night fabulous. Sebastian Milano runs the best store! What I truly appreciate is the management of the crew, they are the same faces I see year after year. Ben has been my favorite employee in the meat department for many, many years!!! Victoria helped us in the wine department today and she was perfect and knowledgeable. Erica was our favorite station employee... the crostini with mushrooms, goat cheese with balsamic vinegar. Mmmmmm CM, you make me a better Chef! And Chef Tiffany Derry Rocks! ”
“ I love this place. Going to Central Market is very much a special shopping experience for me. When I wander through the vegetables and fruits, I'm always impressed with the variety and the quality of the produce. I'm more like to try something new and different here than in a regular grocery store. They don't usually group items for sale. You have to bag items that you want and find a scale. There are clearly posted signs indicating what the food item is, the price per pound or other measurement, and a PLU number. You must enter this 4 digit PLU number on the scale and press enter. A tag is printed that you can place on the produce with the total price. As you zigzag through the different departments of the store you'll notice that prices are much higher here than elsewhere. However, in addition to beautiful quality and variety, you'll also find organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, keto, and other special dietary restriction products available here. The place reminds me of Ikea since you have to wind through the store in a certain way, but there are secret passageways that let you cut corners and quickly skip a department, like the extensive winery of international, national, and local grapes or the bakery with gorgeous golden boules and baguettes. The self serve fridge and the on-demand-counter are some of my favorites. They have a dinner-for-two bag that you can buy for less than $20. It always has a delicious protein, side vegetable, and side grain. The instructions to reheat these items in the oven or microwave are attached to the front. It's a fast and lovely meal for you and a special someone. You can also get single meals when going solo or platter portions for a larger family. It's one of my favorite things, and if I lived closer, I would probably go every week. At the moment, I do go once a week because I'm in the area for physical therapy anyway. I love HEB and Central Market. We just may need to move closer. ”
“ The grocery store is amazing! However, I am here to write about the cooking school! My husband surprised me with a cooking class here, and we had a really fun time! Sean, Brittany, and Nancy made the experience so exhilarating! We did the "All About Chicken Class" and everything was so good! The kitchen was super clean, and pretty spacious! Our class was about 10 people and it was very hands on! At least half the class got the opportunity to cook on the stove! ”
“ It's been too long. Haven't been here in a few months. It was my go to for prepared foods for a while. It's so easy to buzz through here and get those items that are just a cut above. Making your days special can and should include a trip to the Central market once in awhile. Last time I was in here everything was a little chaotic and off putting. So,I haven't been back till now. I was glad to see their move towards prepackaging all the bulk items has been reversed. It's nice to get exactly the variety of olives you want. Seems they've settled back into a well stocked specialty grocer. If you are familiar with this store you either love it or hate it. There is a learning curve associated with shopping here. I suggest if you haven't been then.... Go! ”
