“The 7-Eleven store at Green Bay Rd., and Winnetka Ave., is recommended by me. It comes down to the owner. The people who work there are engaging & kind. The owner is kind and generous. This is my rating based on 10 years of experience at this particular 7-Eleven. They may have changed ownership at some point over the years. The current ownership is stellar.”
“I BOUGHT WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A BONG FROM HERE AND FOUND OUT IT WAS FOR A DAB I CAME BACK TO EXCHANGE IT AND THEY LET ME DO IT WITH NO PROBLEM…THEY ARE VERY FRIENDLY AND a NICE”
“Obsessed with this place. They have just about everything you can think of. If I’m running to the store it’s to this one. Also love the panini and nachos. Customer service here is top notch they know their inventory and are super friendly.”
“I recently discovered Wilmette Market, a newly established, family-owned store near me, and I couldn’t be happier with it! The store is incredibly well-organized, making it easy to find whatever you need. Their prices are great and very reasonable, especially for the quality of the items they offer.
Harry, one of the owners, is extremely helpful and always goes out of his way to assist with finding things. He’s super friendly and makes you feel welcome every time you stop by. His father is equally kind and approachable, making this market a warm and inviting place to shop.
Whether you’re looking for alcohol, snacks, or other kinds of drinks, Wilmette Market has it all. I highly recommend that people in the area stop by and check it out. Not only will you find great products, but you’ll also meet some genuinely nice people. Harry and his father are the kind of people you’d want to make friends with—they’re just that chill!
Support this local gem, you won’t be disappointed!”
“They got everything you need. The guy behind the register is cool. I asked him for a product. I was looking for all around the city and he was cool enough to bring it the next day. Thanks my guy.”
“Perfect grocery store for college students who want good beer and exotic snacks. Definitely not an affordable option for most groceries, but their well curated beer, cider, and seltzer selection is a draw. Great employees as well.”
“Wilmette food Mart it’s good place to get everything you need almost as far as food and liquor. Best price around town and cold beer always. The family that runs it is amazing and they have been taking care of us for years. Just feel like I need to show my Neighbourhood spot some love.”
“I love Eddys food mart! Lived a few blocks away and I still go to it. They have lots of vegan free ice cream pints for like $7 and dairy free Milk. They have lots of regular items too I usually got and get nachos for my mom. The owner is really nice and I really enjoyed coming here :)”

“CVS Pharmacy is always dependable for quick prescriptions, everyday essentials, and friendly service. The staff is helpful and efficient, making it easy to get what you need without the hassle. The store is clean, well-stocked, and organized, which makes shopping here a breeze. Great service and great people, and if you ever need your vehicle looking just as organized and well-kept, stop by Auto Gallery Spa & Repair here in Skokie for a complete clean and shine.”
“The staff were friendly and knowledgeable of their merchandise. The price is a bit pricier than some other liquor stores a little south and west of them, but the convenience of the location is great.”
“Great place and very friendly owners
We got to taste few of their in store made food.
had chicken sandwich and sujuk sandwiches. Very delicious?
Also their freshly made sweats were very mouth watering
Knafeh was my favorited
I definitely recommend it ?”
“I've stopped in many times in the past to purchase beers from their excellent selection, but today I enjoyed a cup of coffee for the first time. They serve Dark Matter drip coffee, which was smooth and flavorful. They also offer a variety of free sweeteners/"milks" too. My coffee with agave and oat milk was as good as the lattes I usually order from other coffee shops, but it cost half the price of those other places! And for those who bemoan the loss of indoor seating at the other coffee shop down the block, Rockwell Bottle Shop & Coffee has a nice, cozy seating area in the back plus bar seating depending on your preference. Very friendly service too! I plan to make this my new go-to coffee spot in the hood.”

“I live in Chicago and work in Des Plaines. And this gas station has the cheapest gas anywhere that I've been to. And they also have everything you need in their convenience store including Subway. Highly recommend it.”
“As a student center the views are unparalleled. Choices for food and snacks are also incredible including many Asian vendors. Prices for all Northwestern merchandise being sold at the student store are exorbited but I think that's to be expected at any modern University these days.”
“It's not just a liquor store, it's also a supermarket, and above all, a great variety of Colombian products at a very good price: coffee, flour for arepas, pony malta, sandwiches, figs with arequipe, coconut candy, chocolate, etc., etc. etc....ah and they also sell empanadas, the cheapest in Chicago!!?”

“The team working at the site were fabulous and went beyond to help me. My rating was based solely on them. There was no help in the aisles and neither pharmacy associate had previous experience at the location.”
“You can use your Link Card to purchase non-food items and they sell Knock off Cigarette $11 a pack. Poor folks Keep this stop open. You can use your Link Card to purchase anything. A Great Store if you poor. Cigaretts is dirt cheap. They will give you cash for your link Card. Everybody is treated with Love. They are all A Child of God. They closed down so they can pray with the family everyday and they come back and do illegal activities”

“I wish they were back to 24/7 and when they had competitive gas prices. I used to drive out of the way to come here for the cheaper gas, but now they're the same as everywhere else. They still have the $4 car wash that includes free vacuuming, and the vacuums are incredibly strong (too strong, honestly).”
“Store is great just recently moved to the area great customer service and very friendly and always helpful to new customers I’ll be shopping here more often now.”
“My favorite family pantry/ liquor store, they always give amazing service. Even when coming late and the guys is closing he will still wait and let you take your time they don't rush you like other places do when closing up. I used to travel to other places even though I live close to them because the people that used to own it would always rush me even if was close to an hour before they closed but the new owners and staff are extremely nice and always helpful. And as I'm a person who doesn't consume alcohol I like they have have a good variety of vapes, chips, sodas, and other snacks. Highly recommend this store!”
“This place is the best store I ever Been to. They are so friendly they treat you like family. Every time I come to this store it makes my day. He has the best clothes and at the best prices. He sells Islamic decorations at the best prices. The Islamic decoration we bought where only 14.00 witch is very cheap for the quality. Usually at other stores it’s like 999% increase for the items he sells. This store is also the cheapest store that I ever been to.”
“Love the workers there always nice and kind and if your a loyal customer they can trust you with bringing money back if you don't got enough and a lot of places don't do that so this place deserves a lot of appreciation and love for what they do for us”
“Awesome store for shopping, everything like smoke, drinks , chips, groceries, mobile accessories, frozen good, and all cleaning stuff in one place. Omg this store is very, very clean with great prices & super customer's service. You will shock once you visit the store. Trust me.”

“Always johnny on the spot with my scripts..guess I've been lucky from all the bad press. I'm sure the pharmacists and techs aren't paid what they should..overworked/constantly busy. The more staff the better. Peterson store around kedzie has an army of staff..total pros”
“had a Wellcare insurance screw up on a drug refill. Pharmacist, Anita Chabo, not only persevered with the Wellcare help line for 1.5 hours, she did all of her regular duties multitasking them and my problem, and prevailed! She saved me $600 on a script that Wellcare had approved as “covered” in 2024 but their pharma system could not get that info properly into the Walgreens system. Anita Chabo is a Superstar.”
