Eggemeyer S Is One Of The Biggest General Stores In Texas

General stores are nostalgic in essence, their tiled floors, soda fountains, and vintage knick-knacks allowing us to reminisce on cherished childhood memories. One such place in Texas has double the opportunity for a trip down memory lane, spanning two stories of antiques, model airplanes, and homemade fudge just like grandma used to make.

Open since 1988, Eggemeyer’s is a timeless fixture in the San Angelo community. It’s located in the heart of historic downtown, attracting tourists and locals alike looking for a stroll down memory lane.

The architecture creates a distinct old-world ambiance that only grows stronger upon stepping inside. Mahogany floors, display cases, and items that were discontinued decades ago tell stories of a bygone era.

Thick slabs of fudge delight your taste buds with not only their intense sweetness, but also all the love and passion poured into every batch. Add in a soda fountain with homemade root beer, and you have the perfect recipe for reminiscing on Friday night teenage shenanigans at the local diner.
