Locally small town grocery store, and if you live in Athens AL. you know the place Im sure. We as a family have always shopped here they used to have very good quality food and meats, however the last few times we went I bought meats, cause I love firing up the smoker and cooking some good food for any occasion lol, but when I opened the meats they smelled like rotten eggs and it was multiple packs of pork chops and ribs, had some kind of nasty grady white substance on them and smelled like 3 day old rotten eggs !! So just a warning if you get the meats its a possability you may have a similar experience lol and thats not fun when you drop 50 dollars on meats and throw away 5 packs of the ten you bought!! Other than that it is a great grocery store been around d a long time and Im sure whatever was wrong they are taking care of it as for me I just wont buy no meats from there for a couple months give them some time to figure it out lol !!!

Hometown Grocery is always clean & well stocked. They are always helpful. They always have plenty of people to check out, I never have to stand in a long line. They are always friendly. Love this place!

Never will go here again. After a short walk around the store it was very clear I could not spend money here. It smells gross upon entering. The shelves are stocked with dusty and out of date canned and boxed foods. There was mold on some of the bread and produce. The meats looked all but rotten and was evidently the source of the smell at the front of the store even though the meat dept is in the back. Absolutely nasty grocery store. The managers and employees should be ashamed of themselves.

The best prices I have ever seen at a grocery store. Love the cashiers

The hometown on Jefferson Street isnt what it used to be. Used be great cuts of meat an fruit vegetables now it higher in price an the cuts of meat look bad sometimes. An the fruit an vegetables lot get bad an need pick out from other good ones I got were I go on one on 31 better

I love shopping here because I’m a country girl and the have everything I be looking for. Thank you!!!

Everyone is very kind and polite. Great service

Great place, have been comeing here since i was little, sometimes very rare the bread cakes little old, but they are friendly and very nice people.

Been shopping here since I was old enough to shop on my own and its a true down home grocery store. Always friendly workers.

Only play I can find candy I love. Friendly staff.

Well its nice just claim the cashiers there this week theyre theyre nice is one little girl there shes very sweet and special to me if she is so cute so pretty she got the cutest smile and I just love her dearly she is so special you got the sweetest soul and God loves her because he made her and I love her too

Store was clean employees were nice and helpful, a lil disarayed for my ocd, but good deals on items nice grocery store all in all

I thought it was outstanding the floors was clean everything was was in the bright places you didnt have to hunt for everything and the best of it all was I got to go with my mother grocery shopping how awesome is that

Nice clean employees and nice clean store found everything I need at a reasonable price and manager Daryl is really nice to all of his customers and employees I highly recommend this grocery store to citizens in Athens Alabama and everywhere from Mary Lewis

I had everything I needed and the produce all looked fresh the meat department was excellent.

👍🏿The Athen Location is Great!! My Number one Go to for Meat! Both locations in Athens is Wonderful! ((ATHENS LOCATION IS THE BEST))

Always very friendly and helpful, good deals especially the 5 for $19.99

Friendly folks clean enviromentvvery fair prices

They had most their items stocked and didnt enforce masks

Friendly staff.. and shelves fully stocked. Not overly crowded.

Lemme just say, this places aesthetics may look bland and uninteresting, but you can find things here you cant even find in Publix. Thats all Im really gonna say, check it out if youre in the area.

Great place to save money and feed your family 👪

It was a nice clean store friendly service

Great prices and deals. Cashiers are friendly. Have had several baggers just throw things into the cart without a care though (typically theyre preoccupied with chatting up cashiers rather than doing their job), would definitely prefer to bag/load my own groceries.

Great place to shop. Highly recommend.

Nice store friendly helpful emplyees

Great place to shop and the employees actually speak to you.

Always a good place for the staples. Best selection of hamburger helper you will ever find. Good prices, friendly people. Lynn, L&L Gunsmithing, Athens, AL

Always very clean and well stocked, with very friendly employees. I always leave here with a smile.

Prices are good but selection is limited. But good for most basic shopping lists.

Great place to shop. Staff is helpful. Prices are reasonable. Lots of shoppers. Some items were sold out

Pick 5 can be a good deal.

I love this store I shop here probably 15 times within 7days.(yes I have 2 growing boys)

This is the best market in town. We have friendly people working there the store is always stocked well and somebody is always willing to help you find something bring your groceries to your car whatever you need .

Nice Sales friendly employees

Exceptional staff. Always friendly & eager to help. Especially appreciate the diversity of goods available in the Hispanic section. Only wish they carried more vegetarian meat substitutes in the frozen food section.

Good place to go when they have a good sale every week

Clean great prices, friendly hometown plp

Great prices and food selection.

Great and convenient place !!

The owners are great. Prices are alright. They have some good sales. Bathrooms are not always the cleanest which I cant blame on the workers. They cant be everywhere. I put the blame on the public. People go in there and make a huge mess often. It has been that way for years. I wonder what type of people want to go in and trash these public restrooms that are there to serve us, the public. I wonder if these people have children because when I carry my child on there and the bathroom is torn to shreds and has filth all over I have to get my child to either hold it, (which they cant always do) or I have had to clean up the mess myself. I think you should treat a public restroom like you know the next person to use it will be your own flesh and blood.It is what it is called.. Your Hometown Market!

This has been my local grocery store my entire life.

It has everg kind of hot takis and its good but the bugees are kinda small

Love my hometown grocery store! Support your local businesses

It was ok

Friendly place with decent prices

The stores very clean, but the cashier I had was not friendly at all. They didnt have some things I needed for a recipeSo I will have to go somewhere else. I dont like going to different grocery storesThe manager was great. He went out of his way to help me find something I needed!

Love Hometown to do my grocery shopping!!

Don’t go to the checkout lane with the old lady who uses a face shield instead of a face mask

Clean and nice store. Prices are great. Meat look good and fresh. Need more sales on fresh fruits and vegetables.

Always great prices and friendly service

I can find what I need at a good price

Love this place, got everything you need

Found everything that I usually buy and didnt have to walk as far as I do in the mega store that I wont name here 😅

Great place to shop. I go there all the time and prices are usually comparable or better than Walmart. Although some things like pasta are higher. Great staff very friendly.

It is a nice store to grocery shop. Some items are most expensive than else where in the dog and cat food department. But then, other items are a lot cheaper. Being vegan, I wish they would carry more vegan food.
