A Street Market

BIG Thanks for being our neighborhood market - and supporting the FOOD BANK holiday donations - bagging the donations for customers is brilliant - sooo easy to donate!

Been around for 40+ years. Still to this day call it Wagner's with my family. Excellent store, Family owned, Locally operated and always has been. They've been working towards making updates to machinery over the past few years to keep going strong. Personally I really hope to see the son come back and take over when the parents retire. Been using exclusively since Ideal on 27th burned down (cause I sure don't shop what replaced Ideal there). If you're not from the neighborhood then you won't understand this store's style and importance!

I worked at A Street Market for three years during college. I came from out of state and felt immediately welcomed by the store owners Angela Barry and Larry Baus. I was given several opportunities to advance, I started as a cashier and moved onto produce manager, tobacco manager, and schedule writer. They were so accommodating with my class schedule and really helped me find a way to still get the hours I needed. The flexibility in schedule writing found here is such an anomaly in the retail world, and something that I greatly appreciated as a student. I sadly no longer live in town but like to visit when I am in Lincoln. The meat selection is always amazing and I love the local products that are ordered in!

A street market truly is a family business and when you work there you will feel like part of the family. Angela treated her employees like her own children and I remain in contact with her to this day. I gained several lifelong friends through my time at A street Market and am forever grateful for having met them. I often look back on my time at A street fondly and am so glad that I found this family store to work at and be a part of college memories. I learned skills here that I have carried into my career and will forever be greatful for my time at this wonderful store.

I worked at A Street Market for 6 years, I started when I was 15 worked all through high school and even through college. I attended college outside of Lincoln and Angela and Larry were always flexible and let me come back during breaks, which was extremely helpful and allowed me to come back home during those breaks. Working at A Street Market I always felt apart of a family. When I grew up at the store, I made some of my best friends. I cannot speak highly enough about the family environment and support I felt from the owners and other employees. Larry and Angela taught taught me great skills at a young age and that helped me grow as a young adult that prepared and gave me skills I can use in adulthood and for my career.

I worked at A Street Market under Angela Barry and Larry Baus for 7 years! I started off when I was 14 as a sacker, and was given countless opportunities for growth and success. I eventually made my way up to manager, schedule writer, and even did accounting weekly. Not only did Angela and Larry set me up for success, but they encouraged me and provided a great environment to work hard in. Each employee was given goals to achieve, and had several opportunities for raises, as they were earned. My schedule was able to be made flexible as I was involved in activities in high school, and they worked wonderfully around my college class schedule. I met several of my best friends because of this store, and was able to grow as a person and as a worker under their direction. I loved my time working there! Angela was like a mother to me, and keeps in touch with her former employees just like they are her own children. She has taught me some of the greatest lessons that I have learned in life, all by working at a family-owned grocery store.
Not only did I love working there, but I absolutely love shopping there. The produce is fresh, and Steve's meat is unmatched. Sadie in the bakery/deli made lovely trays for my bridal shower that everyone could not get enough of. They provide the highest quality in all of their products.
I highly recommend stopping into the store so that you can support small businesses and get to know the lovely staff that operate A Street Market!
