Christmas Shopping Guide for Beaumont & Southeast Texas
Southeast Texas Christmas Shopping Guide
Buy Local this Holiday Season
Are you having trouble finding Christmas Gifts this year?
Here are some of our Eat Drink SETX staff favorite local gift resources:
Craft Beer, Wine, and Spirits
HEB Plus on Dowlen Road in Beaumont
Each year, the experts at HEB stores in Southeast Texas curate a collection of the best seasonal craft beer, wine, and spirits.
Whether you’re shopping for yourself, a hostess gift, or for a special Southeast Texas craft beer aficionado, you’ll always find something special at this popular Beaumont grocery store – that doubles as a great wine shop and place to discover new craft beer.
If you’re not close to the HEB on Dowlen Road, don’t worry. There is an HEB near you on College Street, Mid County, Lumberton, Lufkin, and Livingston.
Here are some ideas for different holiday scenarios:
- Hostess Gift: Don’t show up to Christmas dinner or a holiday party empty handed. If you’re not a great cook, no problem. Pick up a couple of bottles of wine, sparkling wine, or champagne. If you’re not an expert, don’t worry – HEB Plus on Dowlen has their own. Tell them what you like and give them a price range, and they will help you pick your “just right” holiday wine. Do you want to make sure you get invited back next Christmas? Ask about their case discounts on beer and wine.
- Christmas Gift for SETX craft beer fans: Chances are you have all of the information you need to make a great choice. Does your special craft beer fan usually buy IPAs or Stouts? Ask HEB Plus on Dowlen for a recommendation on something different – maybe a Texas Wheat Beer or Louisiana Belgian Style Farm Ale. Chances are you’ll get a big thank you for helping your friend get out of their comfort zone.
- Christmas Gifts For Yourself: To me, a big part of the joy of beer, wine, or spirits is sharing them with friends. The memory is just as important as the drink itself. Pick up a magnum of champagne, a case of assorted craft beer singles, or a cool looking Texas reisling. Invite friends over for a Netflix binge, game of Pictionary, or some Christmas barbecue and create some new memories.

Southeast Texas Christmas Gifts for Friends, Family, and Clients that POP!
We have found a Beaumont business that is hard at work hand making Christmas gifts that are sure to spread good cheer.
Pop Central on Dowlen has 65 popular flavors they serve year-round. They also have a number of seasonal flavors they make just for the holidays.
It can be hard to narrow down your options, so you can sample different flavors before you make your final selections. On your next visit, ask to try “The Grinch”. Delicious.
Flavors can also be combined to take the number of taste combinations into the stratosphere.
With so many flavors to choose from, there is something for everyone on your list.
Everything is made by hand right here in Beaumont by a team dedicated to passionately popping perfect popcorn.
My family enjoys visiting Pop Central in person and trying new flavors, but if you are really swamped you can order on your smart phone or iPad with the Waitr app.
