What a wonderful little place. Very quiet and with a soft welcoming air. Very clean and with friendly staff. They also have a very wide assortment of interesting things to try. I had the beef basturami and it was well worth the stop. a very enjoyable experience.
The cashier was so nice. She recommended me a meal and I loved it! This is my new favorite spot. The food tastes so great !!
I had a mixed experience of this place. It was suggested by one of my colleagues, and since it was so close to my new place in Urbana, I tried it one weekend. The chicken kabab sandwich was amazing. And they have a lot of items to choose from. The gentleman at the counter explained everything so nicely. I was determined to go back and try everything eventually. So the 3/5 is an average of the 5/5 for this experience, and 1/5 for the next one below.The next experience was terrible. They were about to close at 8, it was 7.50. I had helped someone move earlier and was really hungry. I entered and asked if they were open, the person at the counter said they were, took my order. After the transaction went through and I left a tip, the boss (a different person) said they will close and cannot make food. Which was still okay with me, but then this chap was not able to reverse the credit card transaction. However he paid me cash after 10 mins of futile attempts.I did give this place another shot. And the falafel sandwich was good. So Ill probably go in and check their other stuff out sometime later. Remember to ask clearly before you order any sandwiches.
OK, their deserts are just plain amazing. Omg, its wonderful. If you need a good place to go after a first date for dessert, this is definitely worth consideration. Good options for vegan and gluten free people. And if you eat everything, then youll just be happy!
Great variety of products and food. I love the falafel sandwich here and the pastries
Honestly, the grocery section is a little too pricey for me, but I love their yogurt selection. Also, the prepared food is wonderful and competitively priced. So far I have had their cupcakes and a brownie from their bakery, and I just went to their cafe/deli for dinner and got delicious chicken and rice for $5. I will gladly pay $5 dollars for a filling dinner that I do not have to cook. I am a huge fan of the co-op, but I think I can also find the time to become a regular at this place.
The food was OK. Ive been multiple times and the meals Ive received each time are nothing like what the pictures showed or the descriptions described. So as long as youre not expecting to get what you ordered, its not bad. Also, the signage does not accurately reflect the times they serve meals.
This is a nice middle eastern restaurant in Urbana. There is an attached store, which sells items from middle east and India. The restaurant owner is very helpful in explaining about food items. Tried California burger wrap and it is delicious. Also their nut noughts are excellent treats.
We stopped in for coffee, the staff was very nice but dear God that coffee was awful. My partner poured theirs out in the parking lot😂
My boyfriend and I came in to get some food from their salads/cold section in hopes of finding some tasty treats. What we ended up with was flavorless hummus, super dry falafel and a rude woman taking care of us. The tabbouleh could have been better but was alright. The dressing served with it was too sour. When I got home I just used some olive oil and salt and it was fine.I hope to return to eat lunch there and maybe my experience will by better.
Always have one of the two front doors locked due to high winds? Sometimes have to return to counter to retrieve ordered coffee drink. Very friendly staff.
Waited around at noon yesterday. Rang the bell multiple times. No one ever showed up. Missed out on my groups business and at least one other patron. Kind of embarrassing. The food in the case LOOKED good though!
We started off the Great Heatwave of 2013 right here.The line is long but moves fast with many people behind the counter who know what theyre doing. The guy who helped me seemed genuinely excited that we were about to have ice cream cones. Id trolly hate life and all people after scooping for a line like this one but the workers there seem to be really happy. In fact, this might be the only place in 95 degree IL where everyone is happy on both sides of the counter. Wish they had frozen yogurt but thatch just because Im lame.The ice cream is, because it is ice cream, wonderful.
There is nothing quite like the Strawberry Fields. The selection of international products is exceptional. The family who owns the place are passionate and caring of their customers.
Good atmosphere and friendly staff. Great coffee and some unique food items! Will hopefully go back soon.
My youngest son has food allergies and they have a good selection of baked goods he can eat, most he likes, which is a big plus. The people there are friendly and very helpful as well.
Clean, friendly, good products, if they dont have it, they will get it for me.Wife loves the place too.The cafe is available for small meeting for me.
Thus place is very intereting.if you know what youre looking for and expecting, this is the place. Was mine and my fiances first time ever going and we enjoyed it.
So expensive in groceries but a great deal in the cafe. Love the food. Lunch trays and great desserts. Baklava, cake, and pie. Vegan/veg friendly.
Kind personell, yummy vegetarian and carnivore foods. Sandwiches are about 6-7 $ and there are other tasty baked goods. (Expensive) organic foodstore directly next to cafe. Coffee refills are not free tho
This place has been thru its ups and downs. Be thankful you have it... good grab and go food for lunch. Great to be able to by spices for the cooking show recipe etc etc
Unbelievably good vegan cupcakes. Served my cravings for Austrian Erdäpfelknödel and Mannerschnitten. Prices are above average though.
Matcha latte outstanding. Fresh baked scone and cookies were great with samples so you could choose wisely!
I bought organic grapes and was very disappointed to find out that they were NOT ORGANIC at all but freshly soaked in herbicides/pesticides. I grew up in the vineyards and there is no easier task than telling this difference. Many yogurts that are found in other usual grocery stores are much cheaper than they are in Strawberry fields.
Great variety of international foods. Staff is friendly and helpful! If you go, ask for Fahed!
The International food mart we used to always go to has merged with Strawberry Fields. When we went there they were still in the process of merging. Im looking forward to seeing what it all is like when they are all merged!
Cindy is one of the best there and made going there an experience! I highly recommend this place and her!
Not what I expected and not great service, but the coffee was pretty good.
It was a great experience. Just wish they had Just Egg for those who are Vegan.
Good customer relation! So many items available
Very nice international place.People are friendly too
My favorite vitamin supplement store..plus assortment of healthy food items..
Their prices are high, but they are good if you are looking for natural supplements and vegan items.
This place is tea heaven. Apart from that, where else can you buy goods by the pound? That comes is really handy when it comes to baking! Also, friendly staff.
I really enjoyed this place! I have been coming here for a sometime now and usually do stop by when I am in the area
Soooo many options. Pastries, sauces, candy, fruit, frozen goods, everything. Very expensive, but its all very unique stuff you cant get anywhere around here.
Great luxury food/items store. Could have more food, fewer products in my opinion, but great place.
Great deals on quality groceries and sometimes super discounted -- making it even more so affordable milk -- from Kilgus.
Every time I go there I find something new to try. Their prices are bit high but worth visiting.
Great fresh food and backed pastriesInternational goods from all over the world.!
This is a wonderful store with extremely friendly staff. Going here doesnt just feel like grocery shopping, it feels like connecting with the community.
First time here! Had a wrap and chocolate cake for dessert! Definitely will be back!
This place has canged ownership in the last year. Not as many choices for persons with allergies. Prices are terribly high. Sad to see this place deteriorated.
Not sure how Muhammad keeps track of all the skus... but he has a selection of imports second to none.
A bit above average prices, but overall decent place. Employees were nice and helpful.
REALLY expensive, but a good selection. Like Fruitful Yield and Whole Foods crossed together.
Love the hot lunches a small sample of food that you wont get anywhere else in town. Changes daily.
The times posted as to when they open should be followed by an ish. waited outside for 15 minutes after they were supposed to be open before finally driving off and going to the co-op instead. waste of time. 👎
Great cheese selection and great staff. All around great selection of healthy organics!
Great food, awesome workers, and overall fanatastic place to visit.
Numbered pasta, lots of olive selections, also cheese and oils, great 👍

2021-08-26As I am new in town, I have noticed this place while I was walking to downtown Urbana. I decide to give it a try so I ordered kuffa with stewed potato, okra and mushroom ravioli. Everything was delicious, especially the smoky kuffa. A full lunch for only $7 after tax. Will definitely come back.

2022-05-14I came here on the spur of a moment looking for a smoothie—and I am so glad I did! I ended up trying their falafel wrap and *wow.* Perfect falafel, creamy tahini, and the addition of cucumber and tomatoes to add variety—and all for a reasonable price! I will certainly be back!

2020-09-11Fantastic coffee shop with a fun breakfast and lunch selection as well as some tasty bakery items. The international market attached is incredible with an amazing selection of imported foods. Pasta, cheese, sauce and bread are delicious. Owner is incredibly nice and helpful. Took the time to help me build a gift basket of assorted goods for my mothers birthday. Definitely will continue to go back. Five stars.

2021-04-14The owners have done a fabulous job in maintaining ethnic food supply in a college town like Champaign. They provide a small deli and always cater to people with food sensitivities. If you want to grab some fresh juice and a quick healthy snack this is a place to be.

2021-10-02Great place to get a variety of food, with clear indicators for gluten-free and vegetarian options! Also has coffee and lots of bottled drinks to choose from.
Review №9
2021-09-22Went in for lunch. We waved to employees. Looked at the posted menu. No one came out of the back room after ringing the bell. We left after 5 minutes. WTH!??? Went to Black Dog Smoke and Ale for lunch!

2021-10-17Extremely dishonest seller. Keeps expired meat products(over a year) in refrigerators, and sells them as halal. When confronted, argues that printed date is wrong. Yesterday, he was calling everyone in mosque to buy food with the sale proceeds meant to be donated to mosque. I got food poisoned from that semicooked stuff!
