Unique, well-stocked departments can be found such as Healthy Living, Floral, Catering, Gift Baskets, and more. Certainly the staples can be found here, but the journey through the aisles is a great diversion from an everyday jaunt to the grocery store. Kid's cooking camps... more

Central Market can turn grocery shopping into an exhilarating, giddy affair. True, Houston already has some fancy grocery stores, but Central Market has set a new standard. The store prides itself on carrying only the top-tasting brands, many of which are not immediately recognizable, but all the categories you would find in a traditional store are covered. If you need some advice, employees... more

Prices on some gourmet goods can be high, but you can also snag an armful of giant sunflowers for about $10. And sights like the potato shelf--where 20 kinds of tuber spill from bins like polished gems--come absolutely free.

I can't say enough praises about their floral department. Each time I buy flowers, we are amazed at how long they last. They get the freshest flowers. The 3 bunches for $12.99 can make anyone an amateur florist. Selection will vary based on what is fresh out in the market. Now, I have to sing the praises of Scott. I was sent to order flowers for my wedding. I'm the groom, not the bride. ... more

Cons: Not enough parking, crowded at most hours of the... more

The butcher has fantasticfresh cuts of meat...the roasted peppers are delicious, and cheap (made outside, buy before you enter). Everything I have bought from CM has been excellent, as it is... more
