THEODORE, Ala. -- One before they were set to open their first store in Alabama, the folks at Rouse’s Supermarket in Theodore, Ala., were as busy as a bees in a hive.

Damn fine store...just got home, got my 5 cream cheese king cakes, Abita Root beer and the big cans of Blue Runner Red Beans were only $1.67!! Its $3.59 at Winn Dixie! But the seafood...OMIGOD SLAP YOUR MOMMA WOW! Everything...everything had From the USA... No China, No Vietnam farm raised crap. And the line to the seafood counter was nuts! Produce selection very good even for organics. Deli/Bakery was its usual awesome Rouse's standard. Only negative for the store.. no buggy corrals out in the parking lot. Overall, BETTER than Publix and its the seafood counter that pushes them past Publix... Cant wait for the Old Shell Rd store to open on Weds.

I can't believe Rouse's is trying to take over the region. Mike da Tigah is gonna be so pissed and will boycott them.

I like them both. Publix has a far superior deli counter and quicky food section. Publix employees have always been great at every store. Rouse's varies wildly. I am glad Rouse's is expanding - they are a great store. I would love to have both options here on the Northshore.

The Mandeville Rouse's does not have cart corrals either. They know most Louisianians don't put up the carts anyways.

DUDE!! That liquor selection was off the chain! I was like...DAMMMMMMN! The Piggly Wiggly in Fairhope under Mr Cain is a dang fine store with an incredible liquor selection..but Rouse's I do believe has beat even that!

They don't have them here either, don't need them when they have kids consistently picking them up.

It sucks they switched the deli from Boar's Head to that Columbus crap

You and I probably live 5 mins for each other. I can't wait for Rouse's to open either. I live right by that shopping center and I am tired of having to drive around Country Club Estates to get to Publix.

Yep Fin - Columbus meats suck. When I visit my home office in Mobile I load up on Boars Head. My wife said the Covington Winn Dixie just started carrying Boars Head.

There's another place in Lafayette that carries Boar's Head but they don't have the selection Rouse's did.


Rouse's blamed Boar's Head saying they wouldn't allow them to carry any other brands if they sold it.

The Rouses in lafayette has the best quicky (hot) food section of any grocery store around IMO , but those options vary greatly by store
