    Prices are what you would expect for a small "convenience" grocery store. They do have more space…read morethan Edgewater Produce, which they also own. It is within walking distance, which is a plus, though I do watch the prices and go to Mariano's or Jewel when they offer more for less. EVERYONE at the meat/cheese counter is great, and friendly. They really do know their stuff, though at times, I wish they had a ticketed numbered system. It would prevent me from going off on some of the older Eastern Euro clientele when they try to butt in line. NOT happening! The cashiers are efficient, though there is a tall male one that is new to me. Feels like his name should be Draco. Would almost pass for AI, due to his height an personality, though AI can be programmed to be charming and efficient. He literally saw me put down items on the belt and looked like he was confused as to what his role was, then asked me if I wanted a bag for all my purchases, despite it being obvious that I had none with me. I had to get snippy, because, well, I had to get snippy. Oprah did mention them in one of her shows, so they got "trendy" afterwards, but as other reviewers have said, they do carry items that you would find more at a Treasure Island than a Jewel, Aldi, or Mariano's. They are good for that. Now, if they would only work on their AI cashiers and make them more personable, then I would give them a five star rating. Especially since peeps in the hood voted down Amazon from taking over and planting seeds on the corner of Western and Lawrence, to take over the grocery store market.

    I've been to this grocery store many times over the years, but never thought to review it before…read morenow. It's a pretty standard small grocery store, with a few things that may be hard to find elsewhere. They have some international brands, although the Mexican grocery store farther west on Lawrence (Lindo Michigan) is a better bet for Central American things. They sell some local brands, including freshly-roasted coffee from Brü Coffeeworks, also on Lawrence. Prices are a smidge higher than you might find elsewhere, but at least they're consistent and don't require you to download an app or join a frequent shopper club or whatever. I do wish they would stay open a little later. The staff are helpful, and they have a good selection of spices and seasonings. I wasn't able to find caraway seed elsewhere, for some reason, but when I asked a staff member if they had any, he immediately took me to the exact spot on the shelf where they had it in two different container sizes.

    So it's been over a decade since I've originally reviewed Jerry's, and here we are 13 years and 7…read moredays later and it's about time to update the review. Jerry's is still a gem of a produce store. They still maintain overall the cheapest produce you can find anywhere, and carry some unique produce you might not be able to find at other grocery stores. They also carry a decent variety of breads and pitas, desserts, and canned goods. The good value does come with a price though, as most of the time you'll be battling crowds of people while inside the store. Over the last decade I've definitely learned the times to avoid: Weekends and Wednesdays. Wednesdays I think they might have some sort of senior discount but it's also when they rotate their produce deals and the new weekly specials start. Though they have ample parking in the lots north and south of the store and along Milwaukee, during peak times it will be PACKED. I say avoid by going when they open or even after dinner as they're open pretty late. I find Mondays and Tuesdays to be a little less packed usually. Also, usually they have an entrance facing both North and South but the past few years during the winter time they've only had the South entrance open, I imagine to protect from the cold.

    We carefully picked a "good" time to drop in here for the first time in well over a decade, mainly…read moreto see what the fuss was about with Jerry's. The wife says we came here once before many years ago but I don't remember it.  They've been at it here for 53 years since 1972. Normally, we avoid it due to the madhouse scene that is usually here (like when traffic can't even enter the parking lot from busy Milwaukee Ave because the parking lot is overflowing lol).  Well, it was -3F on a frigid Friday night and we were across Milwaukee Ave at the Jewel, and it was eerily quiet in Jewel, and we thought it was as good a time as any to also visit Jerry's lol. Well, it was relatively calm, and we found a close by parking spot, but there were still plenty of shoppers in Jerry's.  Their inventory is huge and truly impressive as are their prices.  No wonder this place is so super popular.  We picked up some cherries for $2.49 per lb and strawberries at a promo price of $0.79 per 1 lb container.  I would say 4.5 stars for our visit tonight, but really on their normal super-crowded shopping basis, I would still say 3 stars overall.  I don't personally think the hassle factor of shopping here for fruits and vegetables is worth it for the savings and the variety of offerings, thus the 2 star deduct.  But you have to decide for yourself, and apparently for many others, Jerry's is well worth the trip, and kudos to Jerry's for that and continued good luck and success to them.

Upon checking out.. no cashiers were at a register. ONLY SELF CHECKOUT. A 70 year old or so women was also checking out. This poor woman could be your parents or an elderly person you know. The manager here wanted to save what $15 so another staff member could be stocking a shelf? Crazy. Absolutely insane. This store is pretty decent overall, but the levels of disrespect this shows for your own staff and your community is just unreal. Whoever staffed the store that night should be deeply ashamed of themselves. The stockholders are gonna be ok. Put a working staff member on registers at all times period. What if someone got injured? The self checkout here has a TINY spot to put your bag. Move the bag a bit and the scale freaks out. I can think of endless reasons for a cashier to be working at all times. Think of members of your community who need help if you run a FOOD STORE. Think of ways to improve your business rather than screwing customers. What about people who are neurodivergent and have disabilities? All to save like $100 a week. I bet they pull cashiers every night that last hour. What an F you to the people you sell to. TLDR: 9:30pm and NO cashier working a register. Elderly woman forced to use self checkout with a cart full of heavy items.

The butcher YaYa is excellent and ground my chicken breast fresh and also packed it very nice so I didn't have to re-package it at home before freezing it. I went to several other butchers who wouldn't pack the meat how I asked but YaYa without any hesitation agreed to do the job. They have a great selection of spices and also several ethnic breads made fresh locally that you can't find at your regular grocery store. Prices are similiar to other butchers and they do have weekly sales.

Locally owned by a family. That's enough of a reason to shop, but they also have pretty good prices. Big place to get lots. It's not just Indian stuff. Though there's certainly plenty of that. A lot from other countries. Middle Eastern particularly. Also it looked to be fresh. There's a pretty big produce section. Got some things that compared to other places were quite affordable. They have a lot of cheap specials. Fairly obvious this is a pretty international area. It's located on Devon at Artesian amongst the Indian markets and restaurants. This has plenty for meat eaters and vegetarians.

They carry some of the best fruits and vegetables you can find in the city, and charge far less for them than your typical farmer's market. I'm guessing the produce is not organic but I just bought some peaches that were orgasmic, so... These Michigan peaches were: 1) Huge If you're of normal proportions, make a fist. Now slightly relax your fingers...yup, that big. 2) Firm 3) Juicy 4) Fragrant 5) Sweet 6) Beautiful The prices aren't rock bottom like at Stanley's, for example, but the value for your money is very high. The peaches were $1.50/lb. but I ate every single one of them within a couple of days, a record for me. And to the very end they were nowhere close to being rotten, unlike 2-day-old fruit from You Know Where. There's also an assortment of apples, grapes, watermelons, yellow and purple plums, all looking very healthy. Then there are vegetables like green beans without a speck of blight, peppers so brilliantly orange they could be used to direct air traffic, and aubergines that could suck you into their deep purple vastnesses. They can't match most supermarkets in variety and volume, but they trump most of them in quality. They also set out a bucket of flowers so you can pick up a spray to surprise your honey. I used to swear by the produce truck down by Little Clown Pizza in Avondale, but this one beats them with slaps to spare. Summer's not over yet. You know where to find them.

Chicago Produce is on Lawrence just a bit west of the Kimball Brown Line stop. It is not a huge grocery store, but it is a fair size and has enough interesting products on the shelves to make it a pleasant shopping experience. There is a parking lot next to the store that always seems busy, as it shares space with a 24 hour bakery. The first part of the store features fruits and vegetables. You will see some random pinatas hanging from the ceiling (for purchase??). My lovely friend mentioned that she bought some of the best (leanest) cuts of chicken that she has ever seen. Indeed there was recently a crazy good sale where you could practically stock up on meats for the year. The deli counter also featured some fine cheeses, and there was a cooler with some fresh tempting tamales. The workers all seemed very friendly and helpful during our recent visit. Chicago Produce lives up to its name by selling some pretty tasty and reasonably priced produce.
