Brookshire Brothers, Crandall TX

A very nice country store. I never had a problem there. Items are always easy to locate. The employees and management are great. Sometimes there is a line, but it goes quickly. I was very impressed with the produce section. I love doing my shopping there! I always get very friendly service. Every day the staff continues to impress!

This is the quintessential small town grocery store, and just a stone’s throw away from home. Super convenient location and great staff! And it’s clear that these ladies and gentlemen remember their customers and genuinely care about what’s been going on in their lives. Trust me, your Walmart cashier will never remember your face like these folks do.

I’ve run across some very pleasant little surprises here - like chopped nopalitos, which are a delicious and healthy addition to tacos. It’s also nice to see some veggies on major clearance every now and then, whether they end up in that night’s dinner, provide seeds for my garden, or feed my compost bin. Local jarred treats and wines are a nice touch.

I am also very appreciative of their connection to the community. A while back, they collected donations of sports drinks for the Crandall fire department.

Three little disappointments however - and they may or may not apply to other visitors…

1. Ingredient quality. The “fresh” beef is often more brownish-green than red. I generally don’t trust the meats here. And the prices aren’t that great either. Bell peppers have that “tire fire” smell, which always comes back to haunt me. Mushrooms have grown “fur” within a few days of purchase. Cheese selection is heavily processed; I would love to see some real mozzarella balls for a change.
2. Some items live and die on these shelves. I picked up a medicine for cats, only to realize that it had expired *years* ago. Glad I noticed before checking out!
3. It’s difficult to find allergen-free items, namely wheat/gluten free. I know I’m not the only Crandall resident with that need. Something as simple as a GF cake mix or frozen pizza (even if it’s one of each) isn’t too much to ask for. Right…?

All in all, I appreciate the tight-knit feel of this location and will return for years to come.

Was visiting with my sister. She uses this grocery store. They were clean and people were very friendly. Very good atmosphere

Mold smell is really bad immediately upon entering. Turned right & went down produce isle. I literally had to leave, the mold was giving me an asthma attack. Maybe the rugs by the door. It’s strong!

I’ll have to go to Seagoville or Kaufman. I’d rather my $$ stay local.

Awesome employee's great prices friendly family atmosphere like just going to your relatives and raiding their pantry but u gotta pay lol

Love that family feel! Great customer service! But their prices are high, but isn't everywhere? They may be a little higher than other places.
