Jewel-Osco is a grocery store located at 17705 S Halsted St in Homewood, IL. It offers grocery delivery and DriveUp & Go™ service. The store features a pharmacy for immunizations and prescriptions, a bakery with custom cakes and cupcakes, a deli with party trays and an Order Ahead service, and a butcher block with meat, seafood, and sushi. It has both self-checkout and cashier lanes and ample free parking. Many customers report a great experience, noting the store is always stocked and the staff is friendly and helpful. Employees are described as going above and beyond, being knowledgeable, efficient, respectful, and having great customer service energy. Their assistance makes shopping easier and stress-free. Some shoppers have frequented the location for around five years and love it. However, some challenges are noted, particularly at the Homewood location. During sales, items are rarely on the shelf. The produce is sometimes criticized for looking worse and worse, as if older items are being displayed. In contrast, other locations are praised for having well-stocked shelves and good produce. A suggestion from a customer is to open more cashier lines instead of relying on self-checkout to potentially reduce theft and prevent price increases.
This Jewel had a lot of customers but didn't feel as crowded as some others I have been to.

My first time visiting this Jewel-Osco! At first glance the store appeared to be excessively cluttered; though, as I searched for Milk the layout of products became ever so clear. Job well done! More important, my brand/type of milk was $2 cheaper than that of Walmart.

I find this location convenient pricing is valuable if you do your coupon clipping. Cashier are not friendly- I would rather do self checkout shop less items(15 items or less) to avoid cashier and ruin my day.
