We shared this was our first time and he guided us through the ordering process without any pressure. I had the Original Alpine Sub. It is described as their flagship sandwich, and often called one of the best Italian subs in the Chicago area. It comes piled with salami, capicola, mortadella, provolone, lettuce, onion, seasoning, and their signature secret oil dressing. The bread was classic turano bread, so fresh. The sandwich was incredible, The meats were fresh and piled high, making it impossible to eat it in one sitting. My husband had a Corned Beef Sandwich. The corned beef was thinly slices and served with provolone and a variety of toppings. We also had a homemade cannoli. The food was excellent and service waqs outstanding. It is easy to see why they have been in business for 70 years.

Carnivore in Oak Park…read more This is a butcher shop and fish market that also sells sandwiches I can't really decide if the old time decor is by design or if the place is really needing an upgrade. I actually think it's the latter. It's a lot smaller than I imagined with very limited seating. We went here for the grilled salmon sandwich. We had seen many online reviews saying it is amazing. They make the sandwiches right in front of you, so you know that they are fresh. We took our sandwiches to go and by the time we got them home , they were cold. The fries traveled well, but again they were also cold bu the time we got home. The grilled salmon sandwiches were very good, but not great , and I really would have loved to have eaten it warm. Prices are on the high side for the butcher meats. But I guess you should expect that since they are an artisanal butcher. I did not like the look of some of the meats in the cases. Would we go back? Maybe to try the Bacon Burger. But we would definitely recommend eating your food in the butcher shop and not taking it to go. I have just found out that that are moving into Carnival Grocery in Oak Park.

The 9-inch sandwich was a good size for a filling but not too filling lunch. Service was friendly and quick with a family feel. Cash or check only, no cards. Nice small space with plenty to offer in its grocery aisles. Easy to find parking on the day I went. Definitely making Capri a part of my rotation.

My go-to is the Le Marais, which is a breakfast sandwich with egg, bacon, and cheese. It's served on one of their baguettes which really makes the sandwich special. I also ordered their drink--I can't remember what it's called--that has lemonade, tea, and peach flavoring added. It's really good and a refreshing drink on a warm day. Because of its location in Oak Park, parking is kind of up in the air. There's street parking on surrounding blocks, and a lot or two as well. They do have online ordering available and the restaurant is cashless, so you'll pay at a station at the entrance. They're pretty quick, too; I think my order was ready within about 10 minutes. Happy to recommend them.

Reviewing their "Courageous Cones" ice-cream: one of the most delicious soft-serve ice creams I…read morehave ever had. You pick a waffle cone (vanilla/chocolate), an ice cream flavour (vanilla/chocolate/non-dairy coconut) and a fruit (strawberry, blueberry, plantain etc.). They blend the actual fresh fruit with the ice cream to produce an incredibly delectable, flavourful soft-serve. I got a vanilla waffle cone with chocolate ice cream blended with strawberries. It took maybe three or four minutes to serve because all of the blends are freshly made, and I had to wait in line for about twenty minutes, but the wait was worth it. It was nice to take the ice-cream cone and sit on a bench at the park nearby. The shop/window is attached to Courageous Cafe, but the operating hours are not the same as the cafe's, and one has to wait in line outside rather than indoors. The shop is about five minutes from the Oak Park Green Line CTA station. Highly, highly recommend this place to those visiting Oak Park! I might even make a trip all the way from the city for this ice-cream - it was that good!

There's a certain point where a bakery stops being a bakery and becomes a gravitational force, and…read morethis place crossed that line the moment I tried the pastries. Everything I've had so far has been spot‑on -- flaky, buttery, and made by people who clearly understand that "good enough" is not an acceptable standard for laminated dough. And then there are the cupcakes. The pink velvet and vanilla bean have basically derailed any attempt at exploring the rest of the menu. They're that good -- tender crumb, real flavor, none of that cloying sugar‑bomb nonsense. They even offer gluten‑free and vegan versions of some, which somehow manage to taste like actual cupcakes instead of punishment for dietary restrictions. There is a full breakfast menu, and it looks legitimately appealing... but I keep getting ambushed by the pastry case before I make it that far. One day I'll branch out. Today is not that day. If you're in Oak Park and want a bakery where the classics are done right and the cupcakes are dangerously habit‑forming, this is the one.

The selection of bread, cheese, wine, and produce is great. Publican baked bread alone is a very good reason for stopping in. They are the best bakery in the Chicago area. The wine selection here is not typically what you find at the big box stores. Whoever does the selecting deserves a pat on the back because everything that I have purchased has skewed on the very good to excellent. As a result, I try to stop in whenever I am in the area and have a time. Everyone should make an effort to support local grocers. I bet if you stop in, you will not regret it.
