    I hosted a Thanksgiving party for my friends family so I needed a fresh turkey as soon as possible didn't have time to thought the turkey was good when you walk in now it smelled like Brighton meats.

    We needed a rooster. Bf was on a mission to create Coq au vin and against my plea to use a hen, rooster aka capon, it was - for recipe authenticity of course. After much yelp research to find "the" best poultry farm, Harrison's looked like the clear winner. We phoned first to inquire on the rooster. Was it fresh and how many lbs. Yes, the chickens offered are fresh contrary to some reviews. All questions were nicely answered. We arrived into a spacious, nicely organized and very clean store. Although I found the smell to be off putting, sort of like walking into a dog kennel (best way I can describe it). I had to lift my blouse to my nose - but I may be more sensitive to odors than others as bf said he had no issue with it and commented that it was a 'clean' scent. He's been around farms more than I have, clearly. Really nice guys behind the counter and helpful. We asked for the smallest one and on average capons are 7-8 lbs. We weren't gonna find anything smaller. We asked him to cut it and for around $22, we happily left. I think that's a fair price. Harrison's offers to cook your choice of meat for you, if you don't feel like it. They offer FRESH chickens, duck, turkey, cornish hens, ribs, sausage, duck bacon, pork, beef, eggs and butter. Various house made stuffings for your bird. Marinated meats ready for your pan or grill. A small selection of seasonings, sauces and sides. Sizeable frozen offerings such as duck and pheasant, soups, gravies and prepared meals. The quality of our bird was beyond our expectations. My first time having a male bird - I'll say it was slightly gamey which was expected. Wish I would've picked up some eggs, but I'm already planning another trip. Looking forward to trying their turkey this year.. Highly recommend these guys. Great shop.

    Do you use chlorine washes as part of the sanitation process?

    We do not!

    Are they really closed Thanksgiving week? Want to order a fresh turkey, but looks like we need to pick it up no later than the Friday before.

    Great question, Cheryl! We're definitely open Thanksgiving week, but we have to shut off Square Online Ordering for the days leading up to the holiday. There's a bit too much going on during those days and we'd hate to miss an order, so we're taking… Read more

I checked Yelp and ordered from Hofherr Meat based on the stellar reviews. I often peek into Hofherr Meat when walking into Shred415 so was excited to finally try it! About 2 days before I was telling a friend where i got my turkey and she asked me how i plan to cook it. Cook it?? It literally had not occurred to me that my turkey would be raw. If it's not obvious from this review and ALL my restaurant reviews the kitchen is not where I shine. I called Hofherr to ask if they could cook my turkey and while apparently they do that it was too late to put in the request. Good to know for next time. Wednesday morning I joined the rest of the North Shore to pick up my raw turkey. I ran into a friend while waiting for it who is more of an expert when it comes to making turkeys and she asked them to give me gravy, a turkey bag (apparently easier and lessy messy to cook in a bag) and some directions. The next day I followed their directions along with some help from my bestie chatgpt. I stuck it in the oven and crossed my fingers we wouldn't be going without a turkey this thanksgsiving. We had a little mishap when the thermometer melted into the turkey (oops), but besides that it really wasn't too difficult of a process. And while I had trouble eating a turkey after seeing it raw my family was thrilled that it was perfectly moist and praised my turkey making skills. I did have a few bites and did think it was pretty good- and i dont even like turkey. I would definitely get my turkey from here again, although next time i'll be ordering a cooked turkey out of convenience. But for those of you who like to cook a turkey I recommend them!

    I don't like leaving negative reviews, but I'm not going back so... I happened to be in the area…read moreand visited this location a few days ago and I was initially impressed with what I thought was a clean store and quality product. I picked a pork item to take home and try. When I got home and started to thaw it out, I noticed that the item I purchased had expired 1 1/2 months before the purchase date. This was a use by date, not a purchase by date, so it had no shelf life. I thought any establishment would be embarrassed to sell a product 1 1/2 months after the expiration date. Now here's the problem. The Glenview store is 40 minutes from me. I am much closer to the Mt. Prospect store and I was under the impression that the Wild Fork sign on both stores means that they would both back up product sold by the Wild Fork corporation. Well Mt. Prospect wouldn't help me in any way since I did not buy the item there. Don't give me the "franchise" excuse. If Wild Fork can't figure out how to stand behind their product, no matter which location, I have no reason to ever set foot in any of their stores again.
