The pharmacist the shorter older man is rude and dismissive. If you’re standing to drop off and prescription to be full he will see you but go start a task then tell you wait. Not to mention the have a very very low stock of EVERYTHING even the simplest of antibiotics has to be ordered . My 97 year old patient needs it they day it is prescribed not 2 days later or longer if it’s a Friday! It’s a convenience to drop off you prescription and shop but they never have any stock! Very frustrating plus the rudeness of the pharmacist is not worth continuing our business. We will switch to Walgreens down the street.

The fried chicken pieces are kid sized. Where do they find chicken breasts this size?!! And they charge per piece not per pound. RIPOFF!!

This has been my go-to grocery store for at least 20 years though I've recently been comparing prices with Mariano's and they have Jewel bet. My primary "beef" with this store is the meat department. I show up many times on Saturday mornings between 8 and 9. The meat department isn't open for business. Maybe the seafood case is being packed with the "fresh daily delivery", that's one of the employee's excuses, but if you want something else? If they help you, it's as though you've asked for the moon. Annoying! Having said that, Jewel has variety that Mariano's doesn't have on items I buy. All flavors of Oreos (husband likes these), lots of assortment in the organic and natural foods, all of the Progresso soup line. As it turns out, I've continued to go to Jewel for some items. Also, in a pinch, the store is only a few miles from home.

I want to give 3.5 stars 1/2 Star let down by the actual decor - seems a little old Jewel Osco is known to be a 'good enough' grocery store. It is my go to for daily food and I have always found the staff very helpful and friendly. The amount of organic produce on offer is great and has own brand organic at a fantastic price point. I want organic but I don't want to pay a premium for it. No this place isn't pretty like Fresh Market but it doesn't even compare and I wouldn't go to Fresh market to pick up daily supplies in the same way. Flowers are always great -3 bunches for $12 Fresh bread daily that can be sliced to order I don't use the fresh meat counter as I only buy grass fed but I struggle with this in most stores to be honest. The fresh wild cod is always a good price Pharmacy is great and BCBSI asks me to go there over CvS as it offers better deal

This Jewel is the absolute worst grocery store I have ever been to. The workers here, especially behind the deli, are horribly rude. They have terrible produce and no cart return in the parking lot. Carts are slipping all over the lot smashing into cars one after the other. Do yourself a favor and go right next door to Fresh Market.

The manager of this Jewel needs to pay attention to the surly people he has at the registers. I'm surprised that Lake Foresters put up with rude checkers.

Stopped in last night to get food from the hot bar. It was pretty disappointing. I ordered the 12 piece fried chicken family meal. It comes with the chicken, 4 rolls, and 3 sides of your choice for $15.99. Can you choose any sides from the deli counter? Of course not! Your only options are potato wedges, mashed potatoes and gravy, macaroni salad, and cole slaw. Since the meal was going to be eaten by 2 people (with ample leftovers) who hate cole slaw, I wasn't going to pick that and they were out of mashed potatoes. Will they comp you with a deli side that wouldn't ordinarily be included but since they're out of food at 6:15pm, they'd make an exception? Of course not! I wound up with 2 kinds of macaroni salad because I couldn't choose from anything else. Would it be too much to ask to offer some sort of vegetable side as an option? The chicken was OK, but nothing outstanding. It's just chicken from the deli counter thrown into a bag. If you're seeking good quality ready-to-eat hot food from a grocery store, go to Mariano's!

The worst Jewel I've ever been to! The employees are so rude, prices are hard to find as half are missing. I find it hard to believe there is absolutely no more chicken for sale on a Wednesday night. Very frustrating experience. Learn a thing or two from Mariano's customer service.
