Striplings General Store in other cities:
Best sausage in the state perhaps the Southeast. Very glad they are opening a store in Jefferson as it’s closer to me. I’ll drop by this one when I’m in or near Athens. Very nice and professional workers. Good hot prepared food and other meats too. Kinda like a country Whole Foods. A+
Striplings is our favorite place! We go almost every weekend to pick out fresh meats for grilling. I meal prep every week and I am starting to only want meat from here. Period. Its so fresh and yummy. My husband introduced me to this amazing store a while back and it will be a store that our children will grow up knowing as well.I CANNOT WAIT to get me a steak this weekend! 😋❤️
Once upon a time there was an ideal that, “if you were going to do it, then do it right.” I don’t know that this was necessarily a southern thing, but proudly, I’ll protest, we’ve held that ideal the longest. If you haven’t visited, then do. You won’t be disappointed.
My favorite local store and I cant live without their biscuits!I first went to avoid driving all the way to the city after hearing about their great meats for small groceries and now go nearly everyday! - for gas, biscuits, awesome chicken, Brunswick stew, locally baked breads, and sauces like my all time favorite Tiger Sauce!They even started ordering the larger bottles of my favorite sauces for me after finding out that I couldnt find it anywhere else - THAT itself would keep me coming back aloneBut Striplings has grown to be my gas station, general store, light groceries and take-out restaurant all in one. and thats not even mentioning the great people who work there!sincerely,#BlotterMonkey
The hot sausage would kill a normal man. Fortunately because of years of living on Indian food and roadkill Im pretty much immune.I use the hot sausage as the base for my Arrabbiata sauce that should honestly be in the Smithsonian or on the space station, its really that good.
I love this store! Love that they sell a lot of local products. The jams & jellies are delicious as well as the sausage. I don’t buy my sausage from anywhere else now. The hot food counter is really good too - always friendly, quick service. My only complaint is you need to be in Oglethorpe county too ;). It’s a 30 min drive for me but worth it. One day I’m going to make it there during breakfast hours so I can try the biscuits!
We went to striplings on the way back from Athens to Alpharetta. We bought a 20oz NY strip steak and some of their fresh sausage selections. The steak was fresh, flavorful, and the perfect texture. It was clear to us that it was high quality. We tried the jalapeño cheese sausage on the grill and it was delicious! I would highly recommend Striplings. If you’ve never been there before, it’ll make all of your stereotypes of a gas station grocery store false!!!
Love Stripplings! It’s so unique. I find items in there that I wouldn’t find anywhere else. Love the hometown feel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The butcher shop is very impressive...the size of the steaks and jumbo shrimps are a must see! It’s such a charming store. Definitely worth going...always a pleasure.
Best General Store I’ve been to! Amazing staff, awesome “goodies “, wonderful meats. Please drop in for a visit. You won’t be disappointed!I had the pleasure of having Miss Julia as my cashier. What a lovely young lady. So glad she’s there! Definitely made my visit even nicer.
Its a great place to purchase any kind of meat, fish ect. And a convenient place to grab little things you may have forgotten at the grocery store. The prices are extremely high but I guess thats the price you pay for a convenient store. The cashiers are always nice and friendly.
Waiting in line to get something to eat and the lady fixing plates just completely ignored me and went to the man standing behind me. I went to the front counter to pay for the drink that I got and said something to the lady up front. Never once did she apologize or ask if I still wanted something. I WILL NEVER COME BACK TO THIS STORE EVER AGAIN!! Staff is always rude!
My cousin got married yesterday and the caterer did not bring mashed potatoes (the bride’s favorite food) and instead brought extra cole slaw. Someone recommended calling Striplings. THEY WERE FABULOUS. They were able to prepare enough for 80 people and had it delivered (so I wouldn’t have to miss the wedding ) in 45 MINUTES!! I was blown away by the service they provided in such a pinch. Thank you so much!! You have a new customer. 😃
This is our local go to butcher! Weve been shopping here for years and cant rave enough about the quality, selection and service. Helpful and friendly staff. Coming here all these years has always been a enjoyable and unique experience. Treat yourself to a nice country drive and enjoy the traditional Georgia hospitality, you wont be disappointed.
Always an outstanding experience to stop at Striplings! Their breakfast biscuits are the best around and their selection of local and Georgia made products are the best I’ve seen- wonderful selection of unique gifts too. They have the best meat around and I like the fact that you can choose the exact cuts you want from the case. The store is always spotless and the staff is friendly and helpful- it’s no wonder that the parking lot is always full!
I have been shopping here since they opened, but what happened today is what the world should be all about. Evidentally I dropped my wallet in the parking lot about an hour ago. Luckily someone was kind enough to turn it in and a manager delivered it to my house about 15 minutes ago, This has saved my day because our family is leaving on Vacation in the morning and this would have delayed it for sure. Glad to see that there is hope in this great country. I will make a point to thank this man every time I visit this store, pleas shop local.
Always the worst customer service. I refuse to come here anymore and recommend the same to everyone else. It’s overpriced food for the exact same stuff you can get elsewhere. The bratty little girls running the registers need training and to recognize customers keep a business going. Fresh Air BBQ has much better stew anyway!
Very friendly staff, several of the ladies who work there remember me by name, ask about my kids, just genuinely GOOD folks, they carry Journey Juice made in Athens, that stuff saves me , esp the Beet Zinger, monster energy drinks are like $1 cheaper than Racetrac, great assortment of snacks.Young lady at checkout listened like a friendly bartender after I got in a wreck not far from the store. Very nice staff at this location.
Good tasting food to go . Whether is for brks,lunch or for dinner.Monday-friday morning trafic is not as pleasant since is at one of major intersection n during school season . Students do like getting breakfast here. Prices are average for the most part in both for fuel or food. Good for items or food suveniers for visitors passing by.
Its pretty sad you can get a bacon egg and cheese with grits for $3.99 but if you want bacon eggs and cheese with gravy oh hell thats thats almost $7 because you dont want grits you want gravy its $7 freaking ridiculous then on top of that you dont get the cheese I wont never come back here again wow
A service meat case not to be found anywhere in this area. Their AM biscuit bar is breakfast Heaven, theres grits too and they arent stingy with the butter. If you want fat in your sausage you will have to add it yourself, theirs are lean and quite a variety , heat or not always available, fresh , smoked, links . Theres not a BBQ resturant around with better Q and Stew, fresh & hot or frozen. The produce department is well stocked, and gifts and recipe books too. Dont miss this store.
This rating is for the hot food bar. Unreasonably over priced flavorless food. Everything is $6.99 A POUND. Doesnt matter if you get chicken breast, green beans, fries, chicken strips, and, wait for it,...........the sauce to dip you chicken strips in. Yes, I said sauce. Ridiculous. Stay away from the food bar and get yourself a pack of crackers to hold you over until you can get somewhere you dont need to take out a small loan to feed that hollow feeling in your stomach.
This ain’t just a gas station- if you haven’t stopped you are missing out on a secret that is getting out!The best meat (butts, steaks, sausage) and seafood counter (crab, lobster, scallops, shelled oysters) assorted fish - fresh tuna, snapper, mahi, catfish, heck, even dawgfish (but, I’d double check on that), many other fish options by special order) in town. The store is well stocked with gift items, sundries, desserts, jams/ jellies, sauces, curated foods, cheeses (made to order cheese trays as gifts), wines, local craft beer, local Georgia vendor items that are hard to find, novelties and much more. You must try the hot food bar (specials change daily).You really have to see it to believe it. A hidden gem. You will not meet better people- a professional staff that many call family. Ask for Mrs. Andrea, Mr. Jimmy (the ever-present, hands-on owners), Caroline (daughter), Linda (BG), (EQ) Allison (AQ) , any of the butcher counter staff (they are all rock-stars and magicians with meat- very knowledgeable- grab a ribeye and some sausage while you’re there)!Need gas? They got it! Need corn for your farm arnimals? They got it? Need ice? They got it? Need a last minute gift bag or UGA gift? They got it! Need a cookbook, candle, Lodge Cast Iron, canned soup, plastic plates, cups, cutlery? They got it all! Looking for Lane’s BBQ seasoning/ sauces? They got it! Need local honey? They got it! They also boast a drink fountain, fried pies, Hoosier Girl cakes, some of the best bbq, macaroni & cheese, fried okra (southern popcorn), broccoli casserole, sweet potato casserole, bbq sandwiches, Brunswick stew, baked beans with meat, ribs, fried chicken tenders, green beans, Lima beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, collard greens, deviled eggs, homemade southern style cornbread and on and on and on!Come get served in one of the cleanest restaurants/ stores with some of the nicest people in town! Why are you still reading? Get up and go get some Stripling’s and see for yourself- “you never sausage a place.” 💯
Rating due to recent policy change only...Well, I have more or less been a regular AM customer since 2013. I get my coffee at Striplings every morning during the week (literary every morning) and I get my breakfast there many mornings a week as well. As a shade tree environmentalist I try to reduce my use of single-use packaging such as styrofoam and plastic containers and bottles. That being said, Striplings new policy of customers not being able to us personal travel mugs for coffee is a deal breaker; it would cause me to use too styrofoam cups on far too regular of a basis and that I cant do. I assume that this policy is based on not being able to regulate the cup sizes that people bring in and not the health concerns which are posted on the little yellow signs. Too bad. I will continue to get meat there on occasion and my daughter does love their Brunswick Stew.
Very rude person on register, I went up to the register to pay for my refill I didnt raise any problem with the price that she asked or anything like that but out of nowhere she just said that you cannot get refills in this store andwas very very rude so I am posting this hoping that other people are not treated like I was. There policy does not Trump the law.
The sausage is great... the people who work the butcher counter could not be nicer... HOWEVER,,,, the people up front are very unfriendly...... and when you spend $75 bucks.... and the cashier chats with someone else on another register the entire time she is ringing up your purchases.. then hands you the receipt without a word.. it leaves a bad taste in your mouth.... customer service is what brings people back.... what generates more business..... you sure do NOT get it at the front counter

2022-04-16This was my second visit. First time I bought the hot pan sausage and it was perfect. Today I bought the hot pan sausage. Now I must say I love spicy food extremely spicy is fine by me. Carolina reapers no problem! Holy cow who made this batch of hot pan sausage? Spicy is an understatement. My eyes were watering while I cooked it to make sausage gravy. I even cut it with maple syrup but it was hottest sausage Ive ever had! Im gonna go back to get the mild pan sausage and mix them together should be perfect . They raise their own hogs and the quality is second to none.its a 25 mile drive for me well worth it.highly recommended

2022-04-19We have always loved Striplings but this weekend they went above and beyond in their customer service. We ordered food for our Easter dinner and came home with the wrong type of meat. After I called to ask about it, they drove the correct thing out to our house which is about 30 min away. We were completely blown away and so thankful!! Customers for life. ❤️

2022-01-20Great food for breakfast and lunch. They are out of half and half basically every other day. As someone who likes it in my coffee, I had to stop going here in the morning because they are always out. Yep, a general store out of half and half.UPDATE. Again out of half and half. They told me I couldnt use a personal cup (24oz tervis) to get coffee. The lady was extremely rude and Ill never spend a dime at this store ever again. I come here every day and have spent thousands of dollars in this store.

2021-06-23This is a really unique place! I recommend stopping by here if you’re on your way in or out of Athens. They have a really good selection of meats and local goods. Their staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Gas prices also are competitive with other gas stations around.

2022-03-09Store has lots of novelty sauces, handmade soaps locally sourced veggies, cookbooks, snacks, drinks, beers and the best meats in town. Come here to get the best milk youll ever try. You get what you pay for and this place is worth every penny.

2019-10-17Great general store with local sweets, jams, sauces etc. They have full line of produce, meats, dry goods as well as a great lunch/snack bar. Very friendly staff but the produce price reflects the unique local selection.

2020-07-18One of the best butcher shops I’ve been to in a long time. There meat selection is excellent. Picked up some smoked pork chops when I seen there prime NY strip. The best strips I’ve had ever. I live 45 miles away but its worth the trip for that quality of beef. Everything the carry is top notch. There staff is very helpful and friendly.

2022-02-06Stopped in today and purchased three filet mignon for dinner. The butchers were very friendly and patient with the patrons. The meat market was very busy when we were there. I also purchased asparagus and the sausage and cheese stuffed jalapeños. Started the dinner process with the stuffed jalapeños and they were great. Grilled the filets and let them rest while grilling the asparagus. The filet and asparagus were awesome! I highly recommend Striplings for your meat market needs!
