Oh I also want to add they have candy gift baskets to buy as well for last minute gifts. Stop in with your family or alone you won't be disappointed at all.

They have chocolates, confections, and bakery items as far as the eye can see. I got my free donut and coffee but also picked up some huge muffins to have the next morning. The donut was light and fluffy and the muffins were packed full of flavor. There is a room in the back for evets and parties. When I was there, a birthday party was being held in the back room. I highly recommend Morkes Chocolates!

The strawberries were big, plump, and delicious! I'm not the biggest sweets person, so I wouldn't say I'm someone who goes out of my way for desserts, but these were solid and definitely hit the spot after our meal. I haven't had the chance to visit the shop myself yet, but I'd love to stop by and check it out the next time I'm in the area!

My order was the large 5 meat, 5 cheese spread. The prices are very reasonable compared to other services. Long story short, Rosana was responsive and courteous. The board was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately, a picture was not taken because it was eaten so quickly! Even the wine tasting planner complimented how diverse and well executed the board was. I will be recommending this to all of my friends and family for any event. Additionally, I just placed an order for a valentines day package. It's a must if you are looking to impress!

I ordered these boards for 2 events that I was throwing. Rosanna, the owner and maker, was such a pleasure to work with. She was organized with all the information I provided, responsive, genuine, and just overall a kind person! I'm definitely gonna get more boards from her for other holidays or events I have coming up. She also delivers right to you and has many charcuterie options, like jarcuterie for example. The actual charcuterie was phenomenal. Candied walnuts, prosciutto, halved dates, spiraled salami, pitted cherries, cheeses galore - the meat & cheese board was robust to say the least. The sweet board was sweet tooth heaven. Brownies, chocolate covered everything, Rice Krispies, various cookies, and more. Needless to say, the charcuterie boards were a HIT at my event. Seriously using any excuse just to come here and get more boards. Support women owned & local and order some bomb charcuterie from here!

The…read moreinside is very spacious with all the grocery departments you can ask for: Produce, Bakery, Deli, Butcher, Alcohol (great wine selection), Frozen, and more! The inside was very clean and well organized. I stopped in with the intent to look for a quick lunch. It was great to find out that do weekday deals (Mon-Thurs) on ready to eat items like salad bar, sandwiches, soup, sushi. I also loved that they had easy meals to purchase and cook at home as well as a large selection of Sweet Ali's Baked Goods. I ended up getting their soup and fresh baked focaccia to take home. It travelled well and was delicious to enjoy! While I wouldn't do all my grocery shopping here, they have quite a few gems here to enjoy!

I am pretty much a regular at this butcher shop at this point, so I figured an update was in order…read more The employees all know me by now, and will cut whatever I want when I call in advance. You would be hard pressed to find a better shop in Chicagoland that consistently has such great quality. I am a bit of a pain in the ass when it comes to meat cuts, and these folks have always accommodated me, no matter how bizarre my request. Their dry aged brisket cuts are pretty much the standard by which all others should be measured, and trust me when I tell you that proper prep goes a long way when you are actually putting the meat to the fire. They cut meat with the smoker or grill chef in mind. While brisket cuts account for most of my visits to Meeske's, they are hardly a slacker in other areas. You can get a 2 1/2 inch ribeye or porterhouse here that will rock your brains out if you are so inclined, and actually at a lower price point than you will find at places like Mariano's. Meeske's has been my secret weapon for bad ass brisket for awhile now, but the meat easting public also deserves to know how great these folks throw down. If you are a fan of meat, this place is a no brainer. Always on point with quality and staff that is more than up to the challenge no matter what your special request might be.
