“Hyde Park Trader Joe's is a good neighborhood resource. There was once a food collective that occupied the space this store is in. So, Trader Joe's provides the options for produce, dairy, meat, snacks (oodles & oodles of snacks!), wine and various pantry staples (rice. Pasta, soups, et al). The namesake house brand is pretty decent in regards to quality and ingredients. The staff is affable and quick to assist shoppers. Bring your own bags or buy a few Trader Joe's shopping bags to keep in the car or home. Ample free parking in their open air lot.”

“Kol Tuv is a hidden gem on Devon Ave in Chicago. It is a specialty grocery store that carries an eclectic variety of foods that cater to all different populations. They have all the items you would find in a typical grocery store plus gluten free, dairy free, kosher, gourmet etc. When you go, you must check out the selection of chocolates and candies. The staff is friendly and helpful and the store is immaculate. This store makes grocery shopping fun and exciting! Hope you love it as much as we do!”

“Nice zero waste store with a lot of dry staples. Be careful because there's honey or beeswax in a lot of staff sold here. Lot of things are super expensive for what they are too, like tiny little lotion sticks for $20. Feels like you're getting kinda ripped off despite reducing waste for some things? Dry goods section is good though and you can bring your own container for a discount.”

“Wonderful store and great community asset. It's very clean, shelves are well stocked, tasty hot bar with a chef and has a nice selection of freshly prepared food selections. Plus... the atmosphere itself is inviting!
The freezers and shelves are well stocked with great buys, and many traditional grocery store products are offered to families with quantity-priced values.
There is also a variety of superb garden produce that offers all kinds of fresh vegetables, spices & fruit at prices you can't beat at other stores. Any shopper would be pleased with their purchases. It's worth the trip!?”

“The owner is so kind and hospitable. He is known and loved by everyone that works at our organization. I love the chicken shawarma, but the falafel is the best I’ve had anywhere.”

“Nice selection of vegan goods and produce. I have occasionally gotten something less than quality in terms of vegetables.

Things to note is they do not take manufacture coupons, and can be a bit pricey for some every day items unfortunately.”

4.7 Superb218 Reviews

“Good selection of less-common meats and cuts (e.g. lamb shanks, duck, ground venison are things I've found there) at reasonable prices. It's a good middle ground between the grocery store and specialty butcher.”

“This is the best little shop. They have a great variety of things they always have extra food left over from their pizza place next-door for a discounted price not to mention the customer service is phenomenal. We typically go here often for things cause we live around the corner and everyone is always so friendly even to the point today we ran in to ask for just a plastic bag because we ran out of dog bags outside the shop and he easily gave us one no hesitation 10 out of 10 would recommend supporting this family business”

“Imagine you are trying out a new recipe. This calls for a little bit of a certain spice. Now you can either buy an entire bottle that will gather dust (i.e. start clumping) after a couple uses, or do 'unauthorized modifications' to the recipe. Enter Wild Onion - they have something I've never seen in a grocery store before... you're able to buy spices and some baking needs (e.g. cornmeal) by weight! No more caked up spices or asking mom if you can borrow some cumin, and having her give you the whole bottle anyway. Another area where Wild Onion shines is the sheer volume of local products. It is like a little farmers market in a store. While I understand why these products are more expensive than Kroger's, other products came with some sticker shock. Since Wild Onion is small, it likely won't replace your everyday grocery store. However, it can be an excellent supplement, especially if you're looking for something locally grown/made (in the case of bread), or just a bit of a spice. Final note, while interaction has been limited, service was refreshingly kind and welcoming. Thus, Wild Onion won't make it into my regular rotation, but when I need something a little extra special or specific, it will be the first place I go.”

“I love this place. The parking lot is not that big, but the market itself is significant. There's an entire housewares section, a mandu stand, and everything else you'd expect at a grocery store. There's a variety of fruits, veggies, fish, meats, and frozen foods, all at fantastic prices. Will definitely be coming here regularly.”

Tenderized the meat, cut it perfectly up so it wasn’t a hassle later on, and they even had chopped up onion and cilantro packaged up. Icing on the cake (taco) was their fresh made salsa! .

““Authentic”-Kielbasa craving??‍?

Look no further than Kurowski.
Never in all my years of shopping here
have I ever found an English-speaking-Polish-Foodie able to describe the differences of the +20 types of
Smoked-Sausages they make here
( & sell here as well).

It is a place that smells as good as it tastes.?
Their Hot Food bar offers a great Polish Lunch selection, as well as the refrigerated display case featuring my fav- a Carrot “Salad”/Slaw w/Raisins, as well as other pickled items and coleslaw.

Sadly, since The Pandemic they’ve stopped selling “bones” inna Blue-Plastic-Barrel.
The piggy bones were great to use for soups or stocks, & my Honduraino buddy literally drooled(& kissed me) over the “trotters”
I gifted him that were pulled-outta that
Blue Barrel.

The southern 1/2 of the stores sells all sorts of non-meat items from European Butter & Cheese to Dill Pickles inna barrel to
Gluten-Free-Breads made w/Sunflower Seeds!

“Pro-Tip”:: For your next picnic ( or cocktail gathering)- may I suggest getting
a few pairs of “Kabonosy” + also request a
2” thick slice (use Sign-Language-to-show-Thickness?) of their Smoked-Gouda Cheese ( pronounced-“How-dah”)>
and b4 your picnic cut into small cubes /slice the Kabonosy into lil bite-sizes> & toothpick-em-together! (Maybe go crazy& skewer a Gherkin on it too!)

(Insiders alert- on the top of
the Stainless counter, over by The scales are broken Kielbasa packaged and sold for
a steep discount)

A bit of Chicago Retail History, this address was formerly the home of “Animal Kingdom”
Pet-Shop.
Wanna Snake?
Wanna Lizard?
Wanna Ocelot?
Turtles-big and small?
Wanna goldfish ( to feed to the Turtle!?)
Even an occasional Capuccian Monkey ?
( think Organ Grinder)
All sorts of legit & questionable live animals used to be sold here

Kurowski Sausage is -
CHICAGO’s VERY OWN!”

“This location is my favorite TJ's in the city. The well trained customer service is so welcoming & keeps my returning business!

Of course Trader Joe's is justly famous for it's international food selection, which is one of the reasons I shop here. I love the wide array of French cheeses, wines, & sparkling wines from which I can choose. Favorites include the Crémant de Bourgogne & its rosé version!”

“I absolutely love shopping at L’Afrique Market! It has truly become my go-to spot for authentic African groceries and those hard-to-find ingredients right here in Chicago. The selection is fantastic, from fresh produce and flavorful spices to specialty items that bring the comforting tastes of home straight into my kitchen. Everyone at the store offers such friendly and welcoming service, which makes every visit enjoyable.

Each time I stop by, the staff are helpful, knowledgeable, and genuinely happy to assist, whether I’m searching for a specific spice or excited to try something new. The store is always clean, well-organized, and easy to navigate, making the entire shopping experience a pleasure with a touch of excellence.

I also truly appreciate how this market supports the community by offering authentic products that reflect the diverse cuisines of Africa and beyond. It’s more than just a grocery store; it feels like a warm cultural hub where everyone is welcome. I highly recommend L’Afrique Market to anyone looking for quality ingredients, great customer service, and a truly unique shopping experience!”
