For a small grocer, this location has quite a variety in their selections. Very good for European and other international foods. The store was clean. The selection of produce was above average for the area. The only catch is you pay a little bit more. It’s worth it! Enjoy!
Great selection of European products. Fresh burek and great ćevapi meat
The prices are ok, the tomatoes price is higher than the market. Also, I think the scale need to fix, because when I bought the vegetables and fruits, I weighted them in my house and, I found some different than the receipt. So just be careful when you shopping next time. (for shoppers)The meat, chickens fridges on the wall is not really organized and little smelly, please take care of that. The other sections are good . (For the owners)This first time shopping in this place, I will go back.
Love this store. Small but great meat department, nice seafood selection. Prices are a little high. Could use a written guide for liquor department. Liquor department has wide selection of eastern European brandy, but I lack the knowledge to shop it. Bakery items and dessert pastries are very good.
Great local market. They have a good selection of eastern European goodies.
Neighborhood store with quite a few Eastern European items. Limited organics, but they have occasional great sales on them. If youre into conventional produce, this place has a great selection at unbeatable prices. Its usually quite clean and has unadvertised manager specials all the time.
Its not huge, but it is packed with items. Their produce section was bright and clean , well stocked. The couple of times Ive asked a employee for help they were very helpful. I travel by and stop a few times throughout the year. Always good.
The workers are so welcoming, great customer service and very efficient.
Good quality itemsPoor customer serviceNo doubt.
Wonderful Balkan market with an outstanding selection. They have everything from snacks to beer to wine to rakija. We love their fresh grilling meat like cevapi and sausages. Best Balkan selection hands down in the area.
Pleased with the over all grocery items. Meat, deli, meat department butchers. Helped me when i asked for a smaller rib section and cut it in half for me. Liked the new meat counter and fish case. Only thing, i dont see sanitized carts or sanitized wipes when i walk in.
Brookhaven is very good store with a lot of Serbian and Balkan products. If you miss something from Balkan you can find in this store. When you come in this store you are think maybe I am in Balkan not in Chicago :) If you need local wine (for example Kovacevic or Radovanovic), Serbian brandy , chese, burek with meat you can find in this store. Also, you have a some guys who speak Serbian language.
Always have what I need and the people there give great service
This location has a great selection of product but a poor selection of people dealing with customer service. Even at this moment, they are refusing to answer their phone after hanging up on me instead of letting me speak to a manager about purchasing a product. Such a shame
I bought 25 days expired mascarpone cheese. Tried to exchange to good one but manager said that i don’t have receipt and i didn’t buy it at this store. That’s not true. I go to this store almost every day because it is close to my work. Always keep your receipts and look best before dates on products at this store!!
When I lived in Darien, this was our favorite place to shop for specialty needs. Today was our first day back in quite some time and its changed a bunch. They have added a couple of pretty rude deli workers and their cheese 🧀 selection isnt as varied as it used to be. Its one of the only places to get fresh pizza dough (which sadly they were also out of). Well try again, but today was very disappointing.
You can a lot of European/ Balkan food. The fruits and vegetables are always fresh. Love this store.
Sometimes little princy but always helpful and friendly worker
Shopped here almost all my life and have worked here for about 5 months now. Always a great place to get a wide variety of foods especially Europe. Amazing new upgraded facilities and can’t think of a better grocery store!
Always high level customer service, this about Juan, this guy need a bonus and extra on his paycheck. For management please keep people who can work and satisfy your customers.
Small, crowded store, but I always find something interesting to buy. Tofu noodles, marinara sauce, smoked bacon, and some yummy bakery. Prices are a little higher than some other grocery stores, but nice to visit for more international choices.
Pick up service here is very good! Employees are extremely knowledgeable. Fernando NEEDS a raise! He never takes “no” for an answer and is one of the most helpful individuals I have ever met! Will be coming back to buy more things!!
Ordered on line for curb pick upthey did not pick up the phone had to go in to ask for my itemsthe items I ordered were not correctthey claimed that the right ups numbers were scanned, but the items did not match description on the website. refused to replace the items. the manager was very rude.wasted time and money
It has some unique imported items a d imported wine but check all the vegetables and fruits before purchasing, they may be rotten..
I love that we have a grocery store that we can run in to pick up a couple of items or buy for the whole week that is local. Everyone is very nice and professional which makes shopping at Brookhaven a positive experience.
Perfect grocery. I was get perfect review with reason couse they have everything but im disappointed couse i was buy juice with expair date...
It may be smaller than the nearby Jewel, but the selection and quality here is much better. The produce is fresher with a wider variety. The shelves have always been stocked whenever I have visited. Cant say the same for that other place where things often seem pretty picked over.
I havent been in this place for several years. Its much cleaner now. Meats on the shelves looked a little tired, but I have seen much worse. They sell some items that no other independent grocery stores sell, which was nice.
Very good store very clean Friendly persons Fresh product Very good Management
I have shopped at Brookhaven for the last 8 years. Its great for ethnic food and fresh produce at very competitive prices. I have a friend who works at the produce market downtown and he told me this was the place to go. I have never been disappointed. I have never seen anything the negative reviews talk about. The only thing I will say is that their deli line gets very long during peak hours, but only because their prices are so much better than other places that are around.
Close to home and no large crowds but sometimes older products, sometimes moldy bread and sometimes the deli staff is not on the ball. With a little fine tuning this store could improve. Overall I go here and hope they do fix their issues.
Very great store to find hard to find European foods, sale prices are excellent and if anything is wrong, the management is quick to make it right. Some of the imported goods are expensive, but thats to be expected. All in all love this store, great produce, deli and meats at an unbeatable price
Decent grocery store but the cashiers seem to always have some sort of attitude. The people at the bakery section and produce section are friendly and professional. No idea whats wrong with the cashiers.
Great selection, with some ethnic things you dont find everywhere. Prepared foods and baked goods smell good too.
Hello, be careful when you buy products, they always lie with the prices, some are on the shelf, others are lame at the cash register, pay attention to the expiration date, they sell expired products, the prices are in the ceiling, my experience, avoid this market, it is not for buying, for Balkan products there is Tonis has Pitz and they are far cheaper, thanks for the understanding
At the first sight the store seems wonderful. It’s bright and clean and well organized. Variety of world food to choose. Unfortunately my experience was not so much bright... I bought a fish last Saturday, a lake trout, that turned out to be completely rotten. It smelled absolutely awful when I opened it at home and I had to throw it out immediately. I don’t live close by so I couldn’t return it. I can’t imagine that a person who sold it to me didn’t know that it was not fresh. I thought it would be my future neighborhood store as I plan to move to this area but now I have to revisit my plans.
Nice selection. Super nice staff. A little pricier than a chain grocery store but worth it for the gourmet food selections!
Top of the line food. Best deli, cheese, prepared meals, sub sandwiches, fruits & veggies & always a helpful staff.
I loved shopping in this place I preferred it before any other food store, until I had to return a product and unfortunately I got three people groceries; I never imagined this embarrassing episode. Three people in charge of being kind to the client, behaved horrible. I will never return to this place.
Nice place...I being shopping here for while now, Macedonian feta cheese,Bulgarian now newAlbanian cheese and sausage...love this place.
The merchandising is awful. The aisles are not handicap size appropriate. And they are clearly not conscious of the current pandemics social distancing rules.
I love this store! Great produce at good prices. I like that you get to know the staff and its friendly!
Nice store just wish that they would have small shopping carts for there customers
Amazing variety of produce, fresh.Clean and very organized.
Have Skopsko so nice selection of goods from Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia Greece...it feels like you are in the Balkan market.
Some items little bit more expensive but at least I can find everything at one place.
I do my groceries here. Great place. The cheese section is superb. Bakery good as well. Truly recommended
Fat is favorite ingredient in sausages, ćevapi, and other products. Store is not cheap, it is good for deli and bakery products but beware of the meat department. And if you try to complain, good luck, you better not call.Update, 8/16/18: the whole package of bbq sausages went to garbage. Fat, cartilage and who knows what was 70% of the sausages. Im done with this store.
Ok store, reasonable prices. Bad experience yesterday though. I bought 2 pounds of chestnuts for $12! They are all moldy, for some reasons I can’t find in America good chestnuts, I guess people don’t care for them here and don’t know how to store them.
My favorite place to go to shop. Excellent staff and great prices
Lot of good stuff for small store like this plus you save hundreds of dollars a month compared to big chain stores all products very fresh like in all mams and popps store in my childhood
Fresh & delicious bakery, variety of goods to select from around the world, nice & clean place, friendly & courteous staff.
Very unique little market type place. had a large variety of speciality items you dont find in everyday supermarkets. definitely a must visit
I don’t know who is supplying their watermelons. Last 3 times in a row I bought they were over ripe and I had to throw them in the garbage.Waste of money. Fruits and vegetables I would never recommend to buy from this store.
Nice neighborhood grocery store. Good selection of produce and reasonable prices.
Nice store, lots of options, great deli and usually good produce. A bit pricey...
Great place and good prices. Always have a friendly person there. All employees are helpful. Fernando especially
I thought the display if fresh fruits and vegetables was beautiful. I enjoyed the vendors in the aisles giving samples. Nice array of European foods.
I went shopping here today and spent about $140. As I was walking out, one of the staff chased after me and told me that I didnt pay for one of the items. He walked me back to the cash register only to find out that I had indeed paid for every single one of my items. And instead of apologizing for making a mistake and embarrassing me for no reason, they just sent me on my way as if nothing happened.
Lots of great products, but I found their baked goods to be disappointing - like a walnut banana bread with virtually no banana or walnuts.
Love this store not only good customer service but excellent organic produce
Place is clean , prices are a bit high but produce is meat and produce is quite fresh.The staffs customer service needs to improve...cashier are very off standish and dont smile or greet you very robotic.
Great little grocery store with al kinds of ethnic foods. We buy about 90% of all of our groceries here.
Great shopping experience. Clean, well stocked and friendly associates.
Fantastic grocery store, unique items from Eastern European cuisine.
Better check expiration dates... The grated cheese on the shelf was visibly moldy. My russet patatoes were rotton inside , almost the whole 8lb bag.I picked up mayo that was expired. Some produce looks ok but most of the greens are old and you can see how they cut off the brown stuff. Would not even think about buying meat here. The resaon I go here is the bread they make in the bakery.
Love this place, excellent fresh market and all the ethnic food you need....a little on the expensive side, but bearable.
Good selection of European foods/ Decent customer service.
Love this store and is great and clean
Good offers,great selection of products. Would like to find it permanently clean and organized
This is a nice shopping center. Many options for a quick bite.
Went to the Drug store and Tobacco shop only... both were pleasant shopping experiences.
Good variety of ethnic food as well as daily groceries. Place is clean and staff is friendly. Been coming here for almost 20 years.
Prices are way to high. The quality of the price is not the best. Petes market has better prices and the produce is fresher. The cashiers are not friendly at all.
What a great little store. Excellent selection of food from all over the world. Outstanding customer service. I love this place!! I recommend!
Very clean store, Carries pretty much everything. If you havent been I would suggest a visit.
Great import products, and some hard to find delicacies, great find, for terrific old world ingredients..can be a bit pricey, but afterall much of it is imported.
I am from Europe and they have a good food assortment..i can find everything I want there.
Very clean and easy to shop at, my first time there, I like it a lot.
Good selection of moderately priced food. Relatively fresh produce and fresh meat.
Staying in town and wanted to find a quality local store to get fresh food for our stay. Initially was pretty impressed with what LOOKED like fresh food....IT WASNT! We bought a number of desserts from the pastry case. It looked like it was going to be awesome. Got back to our hotel and found the cream puffs COMPLETELY stale. You could barely even push your finger thru the cream. I broke it in half to find the center literally decomposing. They were rotten inside and hard on the outside. Also got cannolis which were softer but still tasted spoiled. We also got chicken salad that was watery and separating once we opened the container. Other crappy food too. Spent $98 for literally what was supposed to be a snack and EVERY product was nasty. We do not recommend at all! Very pricey and way below standard. Threw it all away...along with my $98!
Best place to shop with fresh vegetables and tons of other options.
Excellent choice or meats. Great polish selection. I wish they had more locations.
I wish there where more supermarkets like this place. I have been to a lot of supermarkets around the country & brookhaven sets the standard.
Amazing shopping experience and friendly faces to greet you at the service desk as well as at the POS.
Nice diversity of european foods...nice employes always polite and helpfull to me.
Very cool market. Lots of different foods to choose from.
Great selections, lots of organic and european foods. Friendly staff
Would not be my first choice.
Convenient shopping center with options for grocery, pharmacy, auto repair, alcohol and tobacco. Some take out food options as well as dry cleaners. Easy parking and good location.
Was asked very rudely to leave the store after doing nothing but picking up groceries. I was first asked why I didnt have a shopping cart with me (I only needed 2 items which I couldve easily carried to the front with my bare hands), then to leave the store. Im guessing I wasnt White enough for the people working here.Either way this is a vile establishment with prejudiced employees.
Has a little bit of everything.Clean, clean, and thats appreciated. Good deli, fresh fish and nice meat.
My family regularly shops at Brookhaven.
Great products at a fair market price. Vast assortment of food items both domestic and international. Their rewards program is an added plus.
Smaller size not like your jewel but its clean and low price. Alot or organic choices
Love this market for its international selections of hard to find items.
Great place for European food/drinks. Friendly staff
Excellent grocery store, good meat and vegetables, reasonable pricing.
Love this store store it is amazing. I can find all itams from Balkan here. It brings me closer to where I am from. I wish we had this store I Nashville TN.
Very good for a small grocer
Has a large verity of stores in this shopping center. If you are looking for cosmetic items then i recommend coming here, there are also a couple clothing stores. The prices of the stores however i am unclear but from my personal experience o can say that Ive never not had enough money to go into a store there.
Great Grocery Store they have such a nice selection of smoke meats and salami you not gonna believe it.
Was a great experience.nice variety fish ,meat, fruit and veg..they are very helpful.
The staff here is very friendly . Lots of natural organic produce. Staff always greets when come in fear prices . They also have a lot of sales and items like baked goods you cant find at other stores
Great home made food & the Easter lamb meal is awesome!!! Love the staff too.
Little pricey but overall pretty decent grocery. it is a small market place and a little tight.
Great selection in different types of food
Amazing selection and great prices. You cant go wrong with their desserts.
The Produce is always fresh And I love that they carry Boars Head Deli Meat and Cheese
Best place for BALKAN food!! Dont waste time in small stores that sale European food,this place actualy pays attention to expiration dates!!
I love this store. They have everthing I like. Great selection of meats. They also have Boars head!
Expired products they just put their own stickers so people can see that the date is validim shopping here for 9 years and prices went up a loti understand that they sell a lot of products from balcan macedonia serbia etc, but its still food not goldthis place within 2-3 years from now will be same as westbrook market-SHUTDOWN
Its a small grocery store, easy to navigate in. I like the variety of fruits and vegetables. There meat is good as well as deli.
I love you, Brookhaven! Always a go to for specialty European ingredients. But the prices have to come down a bit. Especially with the new competition in town.
Always the freshest deli meats and produce. I had some trouble finding a couple items and the manager Chris was very helpful and kind.
AMAZING selection of Macedonian products here!!!They have Skopsko Beer from Skopje, Grozd Mastika alcohol from Strumica, 2 types of Tikves Rakija, Stobi Flips, Strumka Gazoza, Prilepska Gazoza, Stobi Flips, Viva Juice, and so many different types of Ajvar, Lutenica, Pindzur, its amazing! Its a balkan persons heaven!!Most amazing store! They have Skopsko beer!!!!!!
Great little market place.
Very good independent grocery store
One of the best markets for international food with reasonable prices
Great,clean.Just the store thet I like.
Tooooo expensive. You can find better produce and bigger variety in other, chipper stores.
This has very good meat and produce dept. I would recommend it to many
Great variety of shopping. Food, smokes, auto needs, groceries.
Very convenient small strip mall.Not languishing like other strip malls.Celebrating its 50-year Anniversary!
Always love going to Brookhaven. Employees are so helpful. My mom and I went this past Sunday and Edgar at the deli was helpful and fast!
Best produce in the area, great Eastern European liquor selection and pastries. Small brand supply otherwise. worth a trip.
Trashy place. Heavily damaged parking lot. Cheap stores.
These people have lost it! Their prices are crazy.....on 90% of the store! Wake up Shop & Save is just down the street and Jewel on most stuff is less expensive!
Nice ethnic store, staff need to be more polite!
Good for can or box goodsDont find produce fresh as only last for couple of days
Very easy check in& out.Fresh produce, great meat selection. Excellent in all aspects. Recommended!
Love the fruit and different selection of fresh veggies
They have good fruit and vegetables. They have a good selection of meat and their sales make for great prices.
Fair prices. Wish the rewards program was an instant sign up so I can immediately receive points.
Very good European choices. Also a wide range of delicious frozen items.
The best thing is there is a great variety on European products
Best deli style and grocery in one
I already gave a review of this place but they have all kinds of things to choose from from all over the world and its a really very good selection I I liked it they even have daikon
Loved the variety of specialty items
Good European food at a reasonable price
Everything is overpriced, and they sell alot of products with expired date of use. If u see Manager special its their language of expired date.
They have good deli and their meat quality is better than other grocery stores in the area.
Im at this market frequently! They just added a dukin donut drive through
At times you can find what you need and at times you they dont carry what you need for recipes. Jewels across the street carries a little more in their red & green peppers. Service is great and environment just their inventory needs an improvement as well as their prices.
I know place very good and long.They were better before.
Great selection of European goods!
Store needs a face lift stock is kept clean people are friendly they have a good eastern European selection
Reasonable price and they have Android and Apple Pay so dont need my wallet.
Great quality. Products you cant find anywhere else. Great staff too.
Has almost everything you need
Some of the retail stores here are misrepresented. Go to the one at Lemont Rd and 75th St. More choices and no mom and pop places or grocery stores with coin operated shopping carts....which this place is full of
My Egyptian family loves this place. Because it got all the foods that they would eat back home.
Like this store. For some reason, prices went up lately.
Small local grocery - decent selection of fresh bread, dairy, meat... Produce is okay - not that fresh at times.
Quaint hometown market, not a mass supermarket, supplies and varieties limited, prices were ok for some things a bit high on others.
Nice variety of EVERYTHING! Beautiful produce.
Nice place to shop and eat
Nice little local grocery store. Excellent Deli counter
Excellent selection, wonderful meat and produce, top notch service.
Very clean good looking store. Awesome bakery. Friendly employees that are willing to help.
Nice and fresh everything i like the breads and pita
Went to Crazy Burritos, great food, nice atmosphere.
Great place a great variety of products.
Fair prices, mighty fresh butcher shop counter. Friendly/helpful staff.
Thel always have fresh and in season vegetables and many eastern europeanmeats you cant find anywhere. Roasted Pig etc..
Fantastic Convenient location, well stocked and can find some good deals as well.Will definitely be my go to place for shopping
To small of aisles...cant take time and look at an item without someone pushing into you. Lunch meat counter is a joke!😭
Variety. Pricing. Freshness. Superior staff. My weekly go to place for over 10 years and never disappoints.
Brookhaven has the best variety and prices for produce and meat. They are also the best for lunch meat especially Boars Head. They are pricey for any every day groceries so I only go here for produce and lunch meat. Really good handmade desserts as well and cheese selection
Great variety on everything. Walk in and see for yourself. Prices are also not bad either.
Everything great and people are so nice...
I moved 15 miles away and I still go here for groceries so that should say something
Clean, all employees wearing masks not crowded.
My friend orders a pig for a pig roast every year it comes fully cooked & hot and now they will even cut it for you
If you need an ethnic ingredient or fresh food for a dish this is the place. Expansive array of food and canned choices for your recipes.
Cheaper than big chain grocery stores. And i can usually get what i need and get home within 20 minutes. Friendly staff.
Brookhaven store is good quality. They have various ethnic foods. Theyve got a deli, meat counter, large produce area, frozen food and sweets counter.A little expensive but Id recommend.Some gems and some items priced fair.
Primarily shop for fresh produce; quality n price could improve a whole lot.
Good produce,clean people helpful.
Great customer service !!! fresh produce, meat, deli ,bakery . Great selection of products.
Conveniently located, well stocked and you can find some good deals as well. Will definitely be shopping here.
Great strip mall with nessassary stores
The new Darien down town! Lots of nice stores.
Oh! The Store name is Shop and Save....so sorry....left name off review🎈🎈🎈I love the various breads, meats, and their organization of the store but it is a smaller store with great variety that needs more space to grow larger. If you dont mind the fun of playing bumper carts with others; its a great place to make a quick stop for something great and the meat counter provides an expedient cut of meat you might wait a moment or two for - they seem very courteous. I like that you can find fruits and vegetables of variables all year. I would call this market busy and popular; regular customers and those who love variety and flair. The Cashiers are very courteous and do it right with Customers and the Manager went out of his way for me to assist and that is why I would keep going back. I like to shop here for some items I dont find at a local grocery store.
A good Little Strip Center, Dunkin Donuts AutoZone Walgreens Brookhaven foods all good places
They got great customer service
If you want a lot European food and spices its a place to go.You want regret.
Great pricing on Boars Head lunch meat and great lamb and beef čivap.
Brookhaven nice small grocery store, Daniels Hair Salon, Dunkin Donuts and Walgreens.

2022-06-29Great prices and knock off brands taste just like real thing. I am able to buy extra food for the students at my school who often come without a lunch. Great fruit selection as well.
Review №2
2022-04-10Giving this one a mixed review.I, too, have had a very bad time with their meat to the point where I’m curious if someone needs to come check them out for it. I bought a slab of ribs and opened it the same day and it smelled like it had been spoiled for weeks.Otherwise I appreciate the good selection of European groceries and Boar’s Head deli meat.
Review №3
2022-05-21Its good store because they have a lot of different foods and products to choose from. But be careful because a lot of products have expired. The green small shopping baskets are always so dirty.

2022-04-23Good store for European food.

2021-12-31Good selection of ethnic foods. Avoid buying meat there. Several times meat was no good. Probably doing something funny with the dates.
Review №6
2019-12-11I love this place. It has spices, candies, beers, wines,dairy products, cookies, meats and a lot of things from my country (ex Yugoslavia) and Eastern Europe , so every time we go to Chicago this is our place to visit. The prices are decent too.
Review №7
2022-05-30Former employee. Management isnt good in the least and Im pretty sure the company over all is breaking a lot of labor laws under the guise of being foreign first. Do not work for this company, it isnt worth it

2022-04-04I usually shop at their store in Burr Ridge, so it took me a little longer finding everything on my shopping list. The staff are helpful and friendly.

2022-03-19Great place to get fresh produce. Lots of European meats and beverages you can find here.
Review №10
2021-12-25I have bought 2 bags of five Roses flour recently and I have loads tiny bugs in my flour!! I am warning everyone that shops here (to) : Steer clear of their five Roses flour in case you get bugs in yours too!I cannot use either of my bags of flour to make bread and other baked goods for my family, since my flour is infested with loads of tiny bugs.I typically have a great time at this store and find many awesome things, but after this disrespect I got after going there for 10 years, Im not going to go there anymore. Not until this bug problem is solved by the owners of this business.
