White House TN Treasure: Al's Food Value

When I first relocated to White House, Tennessee, about 17 years ago, there were only two small grocery stores in town: Piggly Wiggly and Al’s Food Value. Both were small stores so they mainly carried the necessities, and both closed rather early. So for any large selection of groceries, or if you wanted to shop past about 8 P.M. you had to go into Goodlettsville, Tennessee, about 15-20 minutes away.

Well, many years have passed. White House has seen a lot of growth and development. The Piggly Wiggly is long gone. Kroger and a WalMart Supercenter have moved into town. But Al’s Food Value is still holding its own, and I’m glad.

Several years ago, Al’s moved into a new building on the southeast corner of Hwy 31W and Raymond Hirsch Parkway. Their new facility allowed them the space to expand their inventory. They’ve since added a pharmacy, U.S. Post office service center, and many new products.

But the main reason Al’s is still thriving in this small town of White House is because of its renowned meat department. Most of Al’s meat is not shipped in pre-cut and pre-packaged. They bring in fresh local sides of beef and divide them up and package them right in the store. Because of the great pains they take to bring in fresh, quality USDA Choice beef, their meat looks and tastes great. There are people that come from all over this area, and outside of White House, just to buy fresh cut beef from Al’s. The White House community knows that Al’s has always been faithful to help support the local schools, sports teams, community events, etc.

And I can’t forget, their staff has always been friendly and helpful. You can tell they take pride in their store by the great service they offer.

The store doesn’t have a web site, but their contact information is:
