Sullivan's Foods is a family-owned grocery chain with 11 locations in Northern Illinois, established in 1967. The stores offer a wide range of products, including bakeries, beverages, wedding and specialty cakes, catering, dairy, frozen foods, grocery items, health and beauty products, liquor, meat, pets, produce, and organic options. They maintain onsite meat cutters to provide slicing and advice, and their bakery and catering services are highly regarded for both large and small gatherings. Customers appreciate the friendly and personal service, describing the store as clean, safe, and family-friendly. The store is well-stocked with fresh produce, baked goods, and a variety of local and corporate brands, often at prices significantly lower than competitors like Walmart, with some noting prices roughly half of Walmart's. The bakery offers an excellent selection of baked goods, including donuts, bread, and cookies, often kept fresh and reasonably priced. The store is also known for its helpful staff and a welcoming atmosphere reminiscent of small-town grocery stores. However, recent changes under new management have raised concerns. Some customers feel that price-raising and cost-cutting measures, such as limited store hours on the hardware side and restrictions on using paint shakers, may negatively impact the shopping experience. Despite these issues, Sullivan's Foods remains a convenient and well-loved local option for quick shopping trips, especially for last-minute items and those seeking friendly service and fresh products.

I LOVE this place. Certain prices are upsetting. Hence the 4 not 5 star. But WOW! If I had this place nextdoor or in my neighborhood! Embrace and support this place.

Be careful of the meat section. Last time I shopped there, most of the chicken was out of date.
