Pros: the people who work there for the most part are friendly and helpful…read more That's it for the pros... Make sure you use the bathroom before you shop here because if you feel the urge while in the store you will be out of luck. Lastly, make sure you check expiration dates on everything you put in your cart. I find out of date merchandise on the shelves on a regular basis. Whoever runs this store clearly doesn't give a **** about it.

I worked here for about a year. Honestly I would go anywhere else but Valles produce. The meat is…read moredisgusting, food has been taken out of the dumpsters, produce is expired and moldy, and there is so much more. They pay their workers under the table, and they are extremely sexist. I got payed less than all the guys even though I knew how to do everything there and had been there longer than most of them. The managers don't care about the customers they only care about money. If you want to get quality food for a good price don't go here. You'll be better off anywhere else.

The chicken was amazing!! The macaroni salad was ok, the Cole slaw was good and we got banana bread…read moreand peach pie. The peach pie was actually Apple/raisin and the crust was crumbly and dry. The banana bread was meh, and I was very disappointed.

If I broke down while far away, I'd just pay a tow truck to tow my car to Al's Shop. I wouldn't let anybody lay a wrench on any car of mine. One day, my Mother rescued a kitten that was wandering on a road around here; she pulled over, scooped up the kitten, after chasing it for a long time, and took it home. The kitten was so traumatized that it crawled and hid in the car and wouldn't come out. We tried to get him out for a long time... a couple of hours. We couldn't really tell where the kitten was. Finally, we just gave up; we set out some food and water, and turned in for the night. The next day, we opened the car, checked the food and water, which didn't appear to have been touched. Meanwhile, Mr. Kitty continued to yowl, but he still wouldn't come out. We didn't know what else to do, so we brought the car to Al's Garage; he tried to get the cat out of hiding, but had no better luck than we'd had. He finally found where the cat was... deep into the Dashboard. Al tried to reach in and grab the cat, but he had no luck. Finally, he just told us that he'd have to take the Dashboard out of the car, which he did. He spent several hours but finally got the cat out. He gave us the cat, re-installed the Dashboard, and sent us home. He wouldn't take a penny for his hours of work. Coo Coo Cat lived with us for 21 years.

I enjoy going into this shop. Such a variety of items. I bought my kitchen table there, love it!…read moreThe staff was very friendly and helpful loading it up. They have a unique variety of merchandise and the prices are good. It's a fun shopping experience

Its very expensive in there, but its expensive everywhere. I usually just go in for quick things or sale items only. I will never do a full grocery shopping trip there. Prices are outrageous.

The best thing about this place are the owners, Sam and Matt. They are the perfect hometown store…read moreowners. They are always helpful and friendly and remember each customer and their preferences, after only a few visits. The store carries all the necessities that you are looking for.

I'm a vegetarian who tries to avoid sugar and likes to shop cheaply. This place, in comparison to…read moreother grocery stores, is adequate. There is a small section of "health(ier) food" and contrary to what you'll hear the produce is fine - it's like other places. Yes, sometimes the avocados and bananas are like rocks (we are in Illinois after all) and sometimes the peppers are kinda wilted, but mostly it's fine. People complain that things are overpriced here, which seems dumb to me. The sales are good and sometimes things are overpriced, just like they can be at Walmart and Target. Just be a careful shopper and a creative/versatile cook and you'll be fine. Booze section is huge in comparison to the size of the store. What's up Coal City? Do we need to talk? What I will critique is that they have a bakery in house and yet all of their breads are the same and boring. Rolls are essentially odd-shaped hamburger buns and the baguettes are very long hamburger buns. I assume the hamburger buns are spot on, but it would be fitting if they weren't.

Berkots advertising lower in store prices over online prices. Of course the government now requires…read morestores to honor lower online prices whether you have the app or not. Now Berkots requires you to "clip" a coupon. Fine for those who love in the area. For those of us traveling in the area or visiting family, not such a great deal. My product was $1.00 higher than the sign. Why. Because I did not "clip" a coupon. Berkots made an extra $1.00 today. But in the future, any money I may have spent at Berkots, will now be spent at Jewel-Osco. I recommend anyone, but most especially those from our of town, to only buy at Jewel-Osco. They give you the lower price at all times. Good luck Berkots. I always liked shopping at your stores. But no longer.

This place should be called two happy brothers…read more This place reminds me of my childhood, when my father would take me to the butcher, he would order the meat he wanted, then tell the guy behind the counter how he wanted it cut, then the meat would be wrapped in paper, then handed to you, you felt like this piece of meat retained a little dignity in death. A small Mexican butcher shop and grocery store, with that friendly neighborhood feel. House made Chorizo just like shake and bake offers up makes a great base for my home made Chili. Very high quality arachera (skirt steak) they will run it through the meat tenderizer for you for free. Nice pork chops, I prefer the skinny ones on the bone with all the fat on the ends, but they have the boneless American ones as well. One of my favorite services is they will hand cut to order whatever meat you want. Whole chicken, cut down into pieces, or big chunks for my arroz con pollo. If you order a ton of wings they will remove the tips for you and give them back so you can make stock. On the weekends they have decent carnitas by the pound, fair prices on basic vegetables. Always fresh tortillas and a good selection of Mexican essentials like chile's and sodas.

Service here is great. I order meat over the phone and pick up. Never had an issue with bad meat…read more You have to try the "Pollo Adobado". Put it on the grill it's delicious.
