Owner is a super nice guy. If everybody knew how much he donates to our little town...time, money, produce...you would never shop anywhere else. Employees are friendly and nice, easy no hassle hometown store. Meat is awesome, great sales, sells my kids favorite ice cream and Boars Head lunch meat...by far the best. If you never had the London Broil, Oven Gold Turkey or Tavern Ham from Boars Head at Piggly Wiggly in Antioch...its a must...deli pickles too. Check out the big meat sales...AWESOME! If you dont like the hassle of big box stores like me...this is your place for great deals and great food.
Definitely a great place to go shopping if you know what you need or just ran out of your staple items. While the selection may not be as large as the big grocery stores, its definitely made up for with the sales! The deli has very tasty pasta salads for a good price too. On top of that, they offer prepared meals from meat loaf to sandwiches and wings for those days that youb dont want to or dont have time to cook.Final advice: always check the reduced dairy section and reduced bakery section for even more steals!
The staff at the Antioch Piggly Wiggly have been extremely helpful during this pandemic. In particular, Willis, Michael, and the customer service manager, Sarah--all being so kind and courteous. Kudos to the owner for hiring great staff. I will be a regular patron at this grocery store after the shelter in place is lifted.
The checkout crew is always very considerate, efficient and friendly. Deli counter is efficient also. Produce is always fresh. Only complaint I have is that sometimes the meat section might have a funk in the air. Not sure how often they clean the meat section but I think they should pay more attention to it. Other than that the store is clean and well stocked for an older Pig.
I love the pig . I live in paddock LAKE but still drive to Antioch. I know I pay tax there but I still save money because their prices are good and they know my name. They go out of their way to help u find what u need. Their meat isnt grainy like w mart. I just love it ,n their glutton free is very large.
This place is really run down. The staff looks like they hate their jobs. Most of the shoppers looked unhappy with their lives. I couldnt wait to check out and leave. That being said, you can find random sales that are of good value. Found 10 pounds of chicken quarters for $5 today- not bad at all.
Saturday March 3rd marks the worst experience Ive ever had with Piggly Wiggly. Or should I say the worst experience with a cashier Ive ever had. I came in and gathered about 60 $70 worth of groceries in my cart, brought them up to the Asian cashier, had my things just about rung up, when I told her I didnt have my pig card, she tried to look me up and couldnt find me. Then she suggested a holdover. I didnt know exactly what that was, but she told me we could hold on your groceries till you get your wallet. Well my wallet was at home with my pig card in it, I told her. Then she said well you cant have your groceries. I asked her what do you mean I cant have my groceries? she responded with, its company policy. I then said can I just pay full price, Ill come in later and you guys could credit me? No she says and begins to grab my bags feverishly to put them in a shopping cart, as if I was going to snatch my bags and run without paying. I have never seen someone so blatantly rude and unprofessional in my whole adult life. This has been the absolute worst experience Ive had, and this woman should be fired. Her incompetence cost me two hours of my day, not to mention the embarrassment, in trying to make me believe, it was my fault. My head is still spinning in disbelief that this ever happened.
I asked for help locating an item on the front page of their weekly ad. There was a sign on the door of the freezer listing the sale, but no product could be found by the employee or me. When I asked at the checkout, employee said she didnt know if any had come in. She asked another person, who also did not know. Nobody cares. And when I got home I saw on my receipt that I was overcharged more than 50 cents for the sugar I bought. Not a good experience.
The store smells rancid from the moment you walk in which should have been my clue that the food is also rancid. I stopped in this store to get local cheese as a souvenir from my trip and even the TSa agent said it looked wrong. It was. Will never go back. Wish I didn’t buy the tee shirt.

2022-03-19Not much going on here. Not much to say about the produce, meat or deli. The Piggly Wiggly in Lake Geneva is night and day from this location. Still open when so many in Illinois have closed. Must have something Jewel doesnt have.

2022-03-25Very bad disgusting produce...Salad & radish bag had been opened showed moldy leaves and radishes. Items that were not suppose to be refrigerated were and many items not properly stocked. Way overpriced groceries~ better off drive further to get reasonable prices and fresh groceries from anywhere else.

2022-02-08This store used to be my go-to for groceries; over the years they have become just another business hanging by a thread. Most of the staff is nice; youll recognize the owner/manager by his rudeness and arrogance. Do not expect to get fresh hot items from the deli anymore, and make sure you check expiration dates before putting items in your basket.

2021-10-27Piggly has been a huge part of my life for over 40 years! Since the big box stores arrived in Antioch, I am sorry to say, I neglected to shop at Piggly for my grocery goods, only because the big box store was on my way home from work. Since 2018 when I officially retired I have renewed my relation with Piggly Wiggly, among other local, Antioch businesses.I am very happy with the product Piggly Wiggly offers to me and my community. Thank you. I will continue to Wiggle the Pig at Piggly Wiggly , Antioch, Illinois🐷!

2021-11-13Very clean and well stocked shelves. Courteous employees helped me find what I was looking for. I would rather shop here than a big box store. Yes it is a little more expensive but worth it to not have to walk miles while shopping.
