I have not been a fan of super stores, as they tend to either get grocery right and everything else…read morewrong, or vice versa. Walmart and Target are two examples of that. Now that I live outside of Chicago proper, I no longer have access to some of the specialty markets and grocery stores I used to frequent. Meijer tends to meet my needs when it comes to grocery, home products, casual clothing, personal care products, and gardening. Two things that stand out the most was their gardening products. I had started gardening, so seeds, plant food, gardening soil, and other gardening items were reasonably priced. Being a pescatarian, there vegetables worked for me. But now that I grow my own, the gardening catalog worked perfectly for me. As to grocery, although there has been spike in grocery prices, they were not as high as I noted at other grocery stores. It helps that I take advantage of coupons, specials, and price reductions thanks to participating in their perks program. This store serves four immediate suburbs, so it tends to get busy on weekends, for sure. I go during the middle of the day when I work from home through the week. I have yet to go and not find what I needed. And because I am a very picky shopper, primarily from the perimeter of the grocery store, I have not been disappointed in what they have.

This review is for the bakery only. I stopped into the bakery to order a cake. I had previously…read moretried to order online, but I was having a difficult time doing that. So I asked the gal at the bakery counter if I could place an order and she looked at me and said 'I don't know if you want to, I guess' . I said 'oh I said if you're busy, I'll come back' . I asked how much time she needed for me to come back and she said I'm the only one here. When I mentioned, I tried to order online. She said I don't know why you're having a problem. We're getting online orders. She was not willing to help me. It was one of the worst experiences I've had at Meijer and Meijer is my favorite store. I just said that I will go to Strack and Van Til to place my order and she said 'fine go do that'. For reference this was Sunday 5:20 PM, June 28.

Recently they did something to their self checkout kiosks so every time you scan an item and place…read moreit in the bag, the thing stops with a big notification and announcement "please scan all items before placing them in the bagging area", like you're a thief. You have to wait 10 seconds for it to go away to scan your next item and as soon as you bag that the obnoxious notice is back. God forbid you're trying to check out with more than a couple items or you'll be there for hours. I assume this is some kind of loss prevention thing but if you're that paranoid about someone stealing at the checkout then get rid of the kiosks and hire more checkers. And dont leave the self checkout as the only option at night. The only reason I ever went here was if I needed something later at night. Instead, from now on, I'm gonna drive the mile to the 24 hour Jewel Osco who don't call me a thief or waste my time.

I went here earlier today (5/25/26) & had a very unpleasant experience. The workers were very rude…read moreto me when i asked where toilet paper was located. The man i initially asked replied to me with a smart remark & relayed the question of where the toilet paper was to another worker who responded very rudely that the toilet paper was in aisle 12. Following this I continued to see the same man around the store multiple times while i tried to shop. Overall this experience was extremely uncomfortable & I won't be back! When i shop at a store i want to be greeted pleasantly, not ever in that manner especially if I'm spending my hard earned money.

I hate saying something is the "best" because it always sounds dramatic, but this specific Pete's…read morehands down has some of the best hot bar food I've ever had. I can't even begin to describe the variety because there is SO much, but the Cajun turkey wings are AMAZING. They're so good that I've literally been trying to figure out exactly what I'm tasting so I can get ChatGPT to help me recreate the recipe at home. And it's definitely not just the turkey wings. I've tried the lamb chops, seafood pasta, carnitas, bourbon chicken and wings, and everything has been excellent. This location isn't particularly close to me, but it's one of those places I have absolutely no problem making the drive to when I'm craving something from the hot bar. If you know, you know.

This location has a lot of use for me. Somehow, my draft of it disappeared. I went here at least 3…read moretimes. See, this is where my daughter swims for Illinois state swim competitions (high five if anyone else has a swimmer kid on a Michael Phelps diet), but I digress. There's certainly some humor of "but it's not in Illinois". But that's not why we come here. That's not why it gets real in the whole foods parking lot. Anyway, this a great location, everyone is helpful, and notably there is (of course as matters to me) a decent salad bar and a good amount of vegan options. Otherwise, I would not be coming. One thing of note though that I have needed many times is caffeine. They have a cold brew concentrate that uses a teaspoon or so for a cup of coffee! So read those words carefully: concentrate. That means, don't drink that whole bottle or you'll die, yo. That would be like a Futurama fry 100 cups of coffee moment. Or a Panera lemonade moment. There are some fun food options not at whole foods but in this area, and the pizza place nearby is also pretty epic. But you can't go wrong with whole foods, generally.

They have a great produce selection. I do come here as a first option for fresh organic vegetables…read moreand fruit fruits. Their meats in the butchery are good quality as well. For the price that you get. Wanna come to their pantry items be sure to search on your phone for competitive pricing. I came here to buy coconut milk and they only had one in stock for seven dollars. I knew nearby grocery store sold it for less. I tried their viral ice cream sandwiches and they were pretty good. They're about three dollars per mini ice cream sandwich. Expensive! I only come here when I need things that my first choice grocery stores don't have. The ambience here is nicely organized. The service of this location is not good ever. They are very mean here from Amazon to the regular Whole Foods workers everyone has an attitude. Very rare you will have a worker that is willing to help you at this location.

The price on the "Special Tags" don't require you buy like five of an item to save a $1.00. To me, this store has gone downhill significantly in the last six months or so. Very disappointing!
