“Much like every Trader Joe's, this boutique grocery store has all the interesting items, pre-made meal kits, and frozen foods from an international selection. I came to this branch hust to see if there were foods different from the Oak Park store. 99% the same, though I thought the way they grouped the sections (cereals, dried fruit, coffees, etc.) was better to see what you want. Certainly, the access to a large parking lot is more convenient, even though the lot was still almost full.”
“This was my first time at the LaGrange Farmers market. It was also opening day for the season. I gave only 4 stars because there were only a couple of vendors that were actually selling fruits and vegetables. I did however buy from several vendors including a coffee vendor, a bakery vendor and a cheese snack vendor. I also found a booth that was collecting items such as shoes, needles and other items. I will definitely be back to donate my items not only does it help save the environment but it also helps with charity. I will definitely go back throughout the summer to see what new items they have to offer.”
“This Trader Joe's is awesome! The staff are super friendly and will always recommend great products to try out (like the pickle popcorn, which is either amazing or horrifying depending on your taste). They have pretty fair prices and some interesting things, but the parking lot is TINY and finding a spot isn't always easy. I'd shop here any day of the week!”
“I come here every few days and buy the same few items and not once had anyone been like "whats wrong with you?". Also their selection is great and everyone is very friendly and the deli/meat/fish is top tier. They also sell cans of soda if u just want a diet coke”
“Always a great shop! Will get items I don’t see in stock and call me. From cashiers to deli staff is excellent. Produce is fresh, meat is prices reasonably. My favorite go to item. Chicken breasts. Won’t get anywhere else, they are they are huge. My go to grocery locally.”
“I love shopping here! Such fresh bakery, produce, Mets& deli. T wonderful about getting any special meats that we want It's also great how they support the neighborhood! Thanks County Fair!”
“We were told to try this deli. Went yesterday and really enjoyed our lunch. I had the seafood salad and my friend enjoyed his eggplant! Everything was perfect! This deli is a gem ?in Bensenville! Staff was great!”
“Emilie G is AMAZING!!!! She is always nice to me and my kids and is one of the best cashiers ever!!!!!!! GOOD JOB EMILIE!!!!!!! I can't wait to go back to the store and see her again..... Thanks for selling me the brookhaven bags I use them all the time!!!!!”

10717 Ridgeland Ave, Chicago Ridge“Bought a bag of potatoes from jack and pats. Don't know where they get the potatoes from but they were awesome. The Irish soda bread, unfortunately was not as good as the raw potatoes.”
“Loved the subs at first bite and they also made fresh and in front of the customer. Was shocked to see how big and long the subs we're, in other words it's a hidden gem ?”
“Always helpful, always friendly staff behind the counter. The owner is there a lot making sure things are going well. He cares about his store.Greatest produce in Chicago. I like this store better than Fresh Farms because fresh farms management is terrible for customer service.Harvestime foods is smaller, but better quality than Jewel, better than Mariano’s, and you get in and out quickly.Best fresh produce on the north side of Chicago”
“great five star service ,the best grocery supermarket Arabic pita bread , spinach pies, zabhia meat ,falafel kubba located in Bridgeview , little Palestine keep up the good work bossAleh K. Akel & Mohammad Akel”
“I’ve ordered from Brazil legal for the 1st time, via Uber Eats and I am very pleased with the experience. The food was fresh, delicious, well packed and the delivery was fast and efficient. I will definitely be ordering again soon.”

2400 N Harlem Ave, Elmwood Park“Best Italian shopping in the Midwest! Only wish they put one in Wisconsin! Produce is second to none and love the items you can't find in other places like the Sicilian eggplant!”
“Food was very tasty. I ordered capelinai, kugelis, pork with mushroom, sauerkraut soup and stuffed cabbage and it was all to go. Unfortunately when we got home we noticed that they did not pack the stuffed cabbage but we live in the north suburbs so it was too far to go to complain. So if you're ordering to go, check to make sure they packed everything you ordered. We also had the bacon buns which were also very good.”
“A Chicago gem. I love coming here to shop for the unique European items. Love enjoying a brat and a beer on the rooftop too!I do wish they offered delivery though! Definitely feels like a missed opportunity.”
“Officially our new local spot. Go on the weekends for the best carnitas you will ever have in your life. Everyone is so nice and helpful, and we were welcomed immediately! Can’t recommend it enough.”
“Ed's Way is the perfect neighborhood market. Whether you need an item or two for a meal or want to complete your list, Ed's is well stocked with items. The meat case is phenomenal and fresh. You won't find a lot of exotic items but they do have a great spice collection.”
“Excellent place for picking up comfort foods & ingredients. The family that run this shop are very personable & accommodating. Great customer service. The halal meat is good quality (no gmo & grass fed). It's a routine grocery store for me. Highly recommend.”
“Everything I needed I found and The Sugar Beet Food Co-op. Store was fully stocked and organized and employees were knowledgeable and was able to direct me to everything I needed.”

303 Holmes Ave, Clarendon Hills“It is conveniently located off 55 near 83. It's right between Hinsdale and Clarendon Hills. The parking lot isn't huge, so be careful and watch for drivers zig zagging and running the stop signs. It gets nuts sometimes. I usually buy sale items or necessities. It's nice too because there's a Starbucks inside. Cashiers are friendly, and the self checkout moves pretty quickly.”
“I recently found myself at Fresh Thyme Market, driven by a specific craving for Cinnamon Roasted Almonds. With a reluctance to make the trek to North Riverside Mall, I decided to explore what this local grocery store had to offer. Having visited once before and had a positive experience, my expectations were already set high.Upon entering, I couldn't help but draw parallels between Fresh Thyme Market and Whole Foods, albeit on a more intimate scale. What truly stood out during my visit was the consistently pleasant demeanor of every single employee. Their friendliness created a welcoming atmosphere that added to the overall positive vibe of the store.One aspect that immediately caught my attention was the organization and stocking of the grocery store. The aisles were neatly arranged, making it easy to navigate and find what I needed. As someone who appreciates a well-organized shopping environment, I found the attention to detail commendable.My quest for Cinnamon Roasted Almonds led me to a whole aisle dedicated to a diverse selection of nuts. The variety was impressive, and I was pleasantly surprised to find exactly what I was looking for. The availability of a wide range of nuts showcased the store's commitment to catering to diverse tastes and preferences.In addition to the nut aisle, I couldn't help but notice the fresh flower collection. The prices were reasonable, and the bouquets were surprisingly large for a grocery store. It was a delightful touch to see such a vibrant and well-priced selection of flowers, adding a touch of beauty to the shopping experience.In summary, my visit to Fresh Thyme Market was a delightful experience. The friendly staff, well-organized layout, and unexpected finds like the extensive nut selection and fresh flowers made it a worthwhile trip. If you're in search of a grocery store that combines a warm atmosphere with quality products, Fresh Thyme Market is definitely worth a visit.”
“Salsa’s is the best. The most amazing fresh salsas and guac. Also, delicious rice pudding and tres leche cake. The tamales on Fridays + Saturdays are DELICIOUS. We are so happy they are in the neighborhood.”

“Everyone that works there is always in good spirits! You feel welcomed, taken care of and appreciated. Not only do they have the freshest produce and a wide selection of products but they truly make you feel loved in that store.”
“I really liked this little store, it has a little bit of everything and it's all Mexican products. I highly recommend it. On the weekends they have carnitas, barbecue and delicious Menudo ”
“Much more reasonable than Jewel....and Fairplay even has things in stock unlike Jewel who ever since Covid is always out of stock and when you do ask what's going on they get snotty when they answer you:)I read something about Kroger buying out Jewel....I hope that happens because I am very tired of Jewel!!!I understand there were supply chain issues during Covid but it seems everyone but Jewel has gotten back on track!!!!”
“Love this place. Great hidden gem for lunch, easily best steak sandwich you’ll ever have. Only thing better than the food is the service, throwback family business makes you feel at home.”
“I maybe a tad bias because I used to work here, but best grocery store. Amazing owners and staff. Now to talk about the deli area. You need to run over and check out the in house made products. Don't wait because they sell fast. My newest favorite was the personal size key lime pie. So amazing that you'll swear you are eating from a high end restaurant dessert.”
