Food 4 Less

Great prices I don’t mind waiting in line from Time to time to get the values

Great store with a very large selection of foods fresh and frozen. Plenty of parking but this store gets packed fast so try shopping early morning, afternoon. Get registered and get discounts on gas fill ups! That’s right they have a gas station and for every $ 100 or more of food purchase you get 10 cents off the price of each gallon of gas. It’s not easy finding cheaper gas as it’s is in my neighborhood so 10 additional cents off each gallon is a hard to pass up. The only down side to shopping here is that you have to bag your own groceries but most stores have you doing that nowadays so I’m use to it.

Definitely one of the best places to get groceries. Your money does go a long way. The only reason I’m not giving it a complete 5 stars is because sometimes the employees are not the friendliest at the register but if you don’t have to deal with them other than to just pay and get out then you’re good. Employees really give off a «I don’t wanna be here» vibe at the register.

Cheaper prices than Jewel, good variety of items. The only thing I don’t care for is that chaos that is the parking lot. It’s a destruction derby out there.

I am horrified with this place their employees were so rude and management is lost, their employee Priscilla B is completely uneducated started screaming at me got in my face and almost got physical with me. They refused to sell me me alcohol because 1 out the 3 ppl i was with didn’t have their ID. So next time you wanna buy wine go alone or somewhere else witch i recommend because chances are, you go with your children they might not sell it to you your 10 yr old might get carded.

It’s really hard for me to try new things. I did the other day — It’s probably why the weather went crazy. I went to Food 4 Less instead of my regular grocery shopping haunt.
I tried this new experience because I was I wanted to get their cupcakes for someone as a gift, (this person really liked the frosting — I did too — I used it as a dipping «cream» of sorts with strawberries). I arrived after a long drive from work, but was pleasantly surprised to find a decent parking place, however the lot could have been a bit more clean, (although, it had been windy — so this may not have been due to their negligence).
I retrieved a cart that someone had left outside of the cart return. Once inside the store the aisles were wide and clean. Sale items were clearly showcased and available. The floors were clean of trash and dust. I asked a woman who was sweeping the floor about light-​bulbs and through broken English she was able to direct me quickly without any problems — and she smiled. The cashier was very pleasant, professional and patient. She was surprised that it was my first visit to their store.
Will I return — sure. Their prices were pretty good. The store was clean, Staff were courtesy — it’s just breaking old habits is hard… Time will surely tell.

Great shop for pantry items. Meat, not so much. Produce, kinda gross.
Frozen, pretty good! Kroger is the best generic brand ever. You CANNOT beat their generic price for the quality. Move over, Centrella. Dominick’s and Jewel? Not if I can help it.

Please!!! Not even 1 star! My husband brought home a bread that was green ON THE DAY HE BOUGHT IT! Yuck!!!
I agree on the attitude issue! I feel sorry for the floor employees. I saw a woman supervisor literaly yelling at an employee like he’s some kind of rag. What the heck is that! And where are the freakin cameras to show the managers what a sucky supervisor is running the place! You don’t go around harrassing employees. There’s a law that protects even them!

This place has a warehouse feel to it and you have to pack your own groceries, but that translates to big savings over your typical Jewel or Dominick’s. The produce always looks decent and the meat is not bad either. They carry generic Kroger brands, which are very inexpensive compared to brand names. As far as I can tell, the quality is good as well.
A couple of pet peeves:
1. The parking lot is small and often full.
2. The deli service is extremely slow.
3. No matter when you go, expect to stand in a long ass line.

How has no one written a review for this place? I started shopping at the one in Forest Park back when I was in Oak Park in 2004 or so. That one did not impress me and I soon moved on to Dominick’s closer to my place.
This one is fantastic. Granted, you have to bag your own groceries and the lines can be long, but the prices and sheer volume of product here is amazing. I was laid-​off for two months last year and this place seriously cut our food budget by 50−75% which was tremendously helpful during an already stressful time.
I love the way the store is laid-​out and these have to be the widest aisles I have experienced in a grocery — I have never been «trapped» by a looky-​loo here the way you are everytime you go to Whole Paycheck.
And, if you happen to have a large family or like to buy in bulk, this is the place for you — large portions of chicken pieces, other meats and frozen foods all for the taking!

I’ve actually stopped here a few times on my lunch hour when I’ve needed groceries. It’s a nice store. I would say pretty comparable to Jewel. I can’t say I noticed if they were *that* much cheaper than regular stores… but it’s a one stop shop –and they have most everything that one would need. If you live nearby, I would say it is worth checking out and see how you like it. I’ve always had a good experience here!

There is plenty of parking. The store is clean. The staff are helpful. The prices are great. There are many choices. I have no complaints.

I think its better and cheaper than Jewel and Dominicks. The liquor here too is cheap and I love that. The meat is not so good check the dates. The veggies and other stuff is pretty good and I love that. The deli products and Bakery goods is good to. You need to bag yourself and sometimes you need to deal with ignant bitches but hey it won’t stop me from comming here.

I’m tempted to give this store 2 or 2 & a half stars because I’m so sick of dealing with cashiers that have attitude problems. Of course not all of them are like this, but I’ve been here enough times to notice they’re not the most friendliest crew. Don’t like your job? Too bad. Join the club, ladies. But because of this «economic crisis» we got going on, I’m forced to take your shit if it means I get some things at a good price.
As far as everything else goes, you can definitely find some good bargains. Pretty good prices on meat, but I’d rather shop at Tony’s if I want fresher quality. The store is pretty giant. As somebody mentioned, it does have a warehouse feel to it. All in all, a pretty good store for sale items. But I think they like to act a little better than they are as far as price competition goes. They say we bag the groceries ourselves so they can keep their prices low. Well that’s cool, but guess what, you aren’t THAT much cheaper than the competition. You wanna take the Aldi idea, but where’s the Aldi prices?

This is a decent sized grocery store, alright deli selection, nothing too exotic. No butcher, fish monger, but they do have fresh meat out already. The quality of the meat varies, they consistantly have marked down meat really close to expiration. I’m willing to pay a little more so my meat isn’t brown, thank you. The produce dept is pretty good, decent size, solid selection, again nothing too exotic. where this place shines is it’s variety of dry and frozen foods. It has a good selection of frozen fish, dinners, veggies etc.. The prices here vary from good to higher than average, overall they are alright. Checkout sucks though because you have to bag everything yourself. This is acceptable at Aldi because you definitely save some bucks .Here, prices are so similar to other stores that for some reason it pisses me off.

Way cheaper than Jewel and Dominick’s with the same or better selection. Similar to the Cub Foods or Ultra Foods experience. One thing I don’t like about this store is that some of the items are organized together by brands, instead of type of food or item. So, if you’re looking for some sort of Mexican item or canned soup, you may need to look in two or three aisles. So, since I’ve only gone a couple of times so far, if I have a big trip to make, I go to Ultra Foods on Roosevelt in Forest Park instead, because I know the layout of that store better.

This is a good alternative to Jewel & Dominick’s. This is a Kroger store and that brings fond memories from my childhood, shoppin’ with Granny down in Alabama!! Some very low prices on some things, not so much on others. Worth a trip-​oh, and a Hooter’s is opening in the same strip mall soon. Yahoooooo! Buffalo Shrimp for everyone!!!(sadly, they only serve fried pickles at the Hooter’s down south-​boohoo).
