This was my first time here. My son lives in Granite City and thought I would give them a try. The staff is amazing! Great recommendations.

So Schwegel's is my local small grocery store. They have…read morejust about everything I need and great sales! Just yesterday I got in on their sale of Snow crab legs and my family had a great feast! Their customer service is wonderful and they are so nice every time I come in. Oh I also want to mention their house made sausages. Unbelievably good brats. I particularly like the cherry brats, the cranberry horseradish brats, and the Italian sausage. WONDROUS! So if you live in Alton please utilize this little treasure. It's family owned and it shows in how they treat the customer!

Schwegel's is a fantastic little local grocery store with a top-notch butcher counter. It's a shame…read morethat they don't get the attention they deserve. The customer service is what you'd expect from a small town market, personalized and friendly. They offer monthly meat bundles that are budget friendly. Their brats will put, Johnsonville Brats to shame and Jimmy Dean's sausage cannot hold a candle to their sausage. Proof that buying local is a good thing. Some of their brands are generic, but with today's economy that is a good thing. There are lots of single little coolers around the store, filled with perishable products. Take note of the prepared foods near the butcher counter. You'll find some delicious side dishes for those tasty brats. Another end-cap to check out, is their branded spices. They're just as good as those expensive name brand spices. If you haven't shopped the aisles of Schwegel's, I recommend you correct that ASAP. You just might become a frequent shopper.

I will never go there again They have roaches…read moreForeigners in the back can't speak English and can't cook Sam is very rude to women and disrespectful to the men

A friend and I participated in a racquetball tournament up in the glorious city of Saint Louis…read more Upon arriving at our Air bnb, it was discovered we had no milk for our cereal in the morning - the obvious resolution to this problem was "let's go buy some milk" however, upon checking the time (9:33 PM) we realized all the ACTUAL stores that carry milk would be closing at 10 PM and we're outside the vicinity to make it in time. Desperation flooded our bodies like water cascading from a broken dam until I discovered Northway Supermarket - open 24 hours and only 3 minutes away! The gods had smiled upon our plight. We got into our vehicle and made the drive through the darkened streets until we arrived at the destination. Upon exiting the car, I saw multiple individuals of questionable character milling about, entering, and exiting the store. How can you say their character was questionable, you ask? Mostly due to the content of thier speech, the rambunctious music blaring from thier cars describing criminal acts and what they like doing to women, and the manner in which they presented themselves to the outside world in physical appearance/fashion. "AHA, you can't judge a book by its cover!" you yell at me. Yes. Yes I can. Jack and I tentivally entered the building. We were the only white people in the store and everyone instantly knew it. I felt 9 pairs of eyes (so 18 individual eyes) lock onto us (there was a long line at the register) and I swear someone said "you don't belong here, little boys" (maybe that was just my self consciousness, I'm not 100% sure). We sheepishly scampered through the isles, desperately looking for milk while trying to appear as alpha males to avoid any confrontation. The store has everything and anything you'd need - from wine, beer, juice flavors nobody has ever heard of, snacks of various kinds, half-naked mannequins draped with clothes no woman should wear to a whole make-up and eye lash section. I was certainly impressed! Could they pass a state health inspection? No. Could you buy 43 different flavors of wine? Yes, yes you could. We finally found the milk and headed to the register. While we were standing in line, I glanced back at the restaraunt/deli where a giant of a cook tiredly tried to cook something. A gentleman with less than impressive dreads locked eyes with me and drew a line across his throat. Confused, I looked back and he did it again! "I'm going to get knifed over a 1/2 gallon of milk" I thought. At that moment a gangster started yelling at the cashier that he WASN'T in fact a gangster and the only reason the store was there, was because the community WANTED them there and that "You need to treat people with some f*cking decency!" The poor cashier didn't know what he did - he didn't even speak English but apperntly he was used to this kind of behavior because he just rolled his eyes as the "non-gangster" grabbed his $2 ciga-rillo and stormed off. I paid $5 dollars for a blueberry muffin and a 1/2 gallon of milk. Jack and I left the store to the sound of yelling outside (I'm pretty sure there was a dog fight going on around the corner) and jumped in my car. I drove the wrong way down a one way street back to our Air bnb. The nice Chinese lady who ran the Air bnb cooked us fried rice (we had it for lunch the next day and it was delicious) and we went to bed and then drank the milk with our cereal in the morning and I ate the blueberry muffin - both the milk and muffin were delicious and filled me to satisfaction (Jack had 2 bowls of cereal). We then went and played racquetball at a club thriving off white privilege where we got beat by middle schoolers. I am giving the 3 out of 5 stars due to the trauma I experienced inside the store of seeing the half-naked mannequins. As we drift off to sleep with the medals of the "winner of the loser brackets" around our necks, we hear the not-distant sound of gunfire and I think to myself, "This has been fun, till next time Saint Louis."

I love City Greens and its mission to serve the underserved and support farmers in MO/IL. Locally…read moregrown vegetables, eggs and meat have great flavor and better nutrition than those sold at grocery stores. I appreciate the variety of products and vegetables. Fresh grown turmeric, varieties of squash, potatoes, have caused me to expand my palate and encourages me to eat a rainbow of foods for healthy gut microbiome. They offer free vegetables that are on the brink of spoiling, but still serviceable for broth or soup. I have supported City Greens since its inception and it has blossomed into a food lovers paradise!

It's very affordable compared to similar local/organic markets in the area as well, even if you don't have a membership (which I highly recommend purchasing). You get so much bang for your membership buck, and you keep everyone's prices down too! The selection isn't huge, but you have all of your staples as well as some extra goodies available. I love their meat and poultry selection in particular. The free range chicken breasts they have are the most tender and flavorful I've ever purchased! Never buying meat from Aldi again. Also, shoutout to the incredible fresh herbs they grow themselves! Although you generally have to schedule pickup a week or so out during this COVID period, City Greens' curbside shopping process is easy and felt extremely safe. You just fill out a form online, then show up to pay and pick up. You only interact with one staff members, there are no other customers during your pickup slot, and everyone is in proper PPE. I cannot wait to shop here regularly in person!
