This post was recently updated to include the store’s opening date.
H-E-B has officially started construction on a new store in Georgetown. The Wolf Lakes Village H-E-B, which will replace an existing location less than a mile away, will have a larger footprint and provide customers with an expanded product selection along with more services and features, including the second True Texas BBQ restaurant in Central Texas. The Wolf Lakes Village H-E-B will open at 6 a.m. on Wednesday, June 7.
The new H-E-B store will be located at 1010 W. University Ave in the Wolf Lakes Village neighborhood. The Wolf Lakes Village H-E-B will replace the 67,000-square-foot store at 1100 South I35, which opened in 1989. That location will remain operational until the new store opens. H-E-B opened its first store at 600 W. University in Georgetown in 1966. The 21,000-square-foot store remained in operation until 1989. H-E-B currently operates two stores in Georgetown.
“We are thrilled to bring a new H-E-B store to Georgetown, a growing community we’ve proudly been a part of for more than 55 years,” said Cathy Harm, H-E-B Group Vice President Central Texas. “We look forward to serving this community with a larger store that offers a wide assortment of products and services and ensuring that our long-time customers continue to enjoy the best of what H-E-B has to offer.”
At 121,000 square feet, the new store’s design will have the feel of European village, which relates to the character of the surrounding neighborhood, and feature two entry towers and pedestrian-friendly surroundings. Among the stores many highlights include a two-story True Texas BBQ. The restaurant will have indoor seating on both levels.
The thoughtfully designed H-E-B store will offer a world-class shopping experience with an emphasis on fresh, top-quality food options at H-E-B’s celebrated low prices. With expansive product assortment and several convenient services customers come to expect from H-E-B, other amenities will include:
