European supermarket in Austin, great store, clean, non huge but has everything I was looking for! Fresh products, attentive personal speaking Russian as well and feel cozy. Love choice and variety. Prices are reasonable for any imported products. Absolutely recommend if you are Russian, Europeans or even a stranger who wants try something new and delicious!

It was my first time visiting, and I’m so glad I found this place! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They have an awesome variety — smoked fish, cheesecake bars, cakes, cereals, Russian mayo, wine — so many things I didn’t even know I missed. The store is clean, organized, and has a really warm vibe. From now on, this will definitely be my go-to spot. Highly recommend! Also if you pay cash they have a 4% discount!

This is a really interesting European grocery store. You’ll find a lot of things here that you’ve never seen before and many of the labels are not in English so it’s hard to figure out what some of them are or how you would eat them. Going here with a Lithuanian friend was great because she could tell me what they were, but otherwise It’s kind of a crapshoot. It’s a very interesting place to just go browse for a few minutes though, and if you were looking for European products, this is the place. This is also one of the few places that stayed open while the whole city shut down during winter storms.

This small Slavic market, often labeled as a European Market, is primarily focused on Eastern European cuisine, with a strong emphasis on Ukrainian, Belarusian, and Russian products. While I’m not a huge fan of Slavic cuisine, despite being from Siberia myself, I occasionally visit these stores to pick up staples like buckwheat or other familiar ingredients we still use in the kitchen. The store is compact but well-stocked with all the essentials. It’s clean, well-organized, and has a welcoming atmosphere. The staff is friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. It’s a great spot for those seeking a taste of home or unique ingredients that are hard to find elsewhere. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a bit of Slavic flavor in Austin!

As a European i love that fact this store is around! Great people work here and can ask any questions regarding the products they sell. Great selection of food from Croatia, Ukraine, Russia, some of everything. I’m half dutch & Polish so this is a happy place for me and my family. Definitely recommend anyone to visit and explore the great foods they sell. We will be back!! Thank you
