The store has nice quality produce and meat. Every Heinen's employee that I met during my visit was helpful and seemed genuinely interested that I have a pleasant shopping experience. read more

This is the nicest one I've been to. Huge variety of high quality produce, nice butcher shop seafood look good. The bakery was unbelievable nice cheese department. Had a nice parking lot. The front of the store had some nice fall, planters and pumpkins very nicely done. read more

I was looking for a specific item and online this store was the only option . On a Tuesday evening the store was pretty empty, which gave me time to browse. The produce, meats and all items were nicely displayed. They have a variety of higher end products, a different variety than at other grocery chains. They do offer prepared items ,and all looked delicious. The cheese selections offered many varieties of cheeses, and they had small charcuterie boards already made. There was no line to check out and service was fast and efficient . The parking lot was a bit confusing for a first time shopper. I would definately stop in again. read more

I'm familiar with the Heinens just from my time shopping around the Cleveland area so I found it intriguing that these stores existed in the far northern suburbs. Staff here was really nice! They had plenty of energy drinks that I loved from their Ohio stores. Aisles were clean and staff was friendly. It's pricey but you can get discounts here if you put your phone number in when checking out. Parking can be a pain too. Overall, solid grocery store. read more

Huge store, well lite, beautiful fruit and vegetables. Prices on the higher side, but to me seems worth it. I like the store and the selection. Wish they had lobster Mac like the barrington store, but didn't see it. Other Heine's work force seems to be more friendly , other stores seem to great you much more. Today's visit no one greeted, said hello. read more

Good quality and selection. Pretentiously overpriced. $5 per lb. for fresh jalapenos? Most local markets sell them for $.89 lb. They didn't look any better at Heinan's. Most produce there conveyed similar ridiculous price points. I don't need to go back in there. read more

Curious how an Ohio grocery chain has invaded the Northern suburbs of Chicago. The chain is pricey and in some manners alike Mariano's. I wish they offered more organics. Most of their produce is unmarked so I assume the majority is gmo. As far as groceries, they offer many product lines. For those looking for specifics, they offer some unique products not commonly found at stores like Jewel. For instance specialty brands of vitamins, bone broth, kombucha, seasonings, and more. Is there something specific you desire? Meeting with their buyers, might yield your favorites in-store. (Bone broth is some pricey foo-foo. It's great if you're willing to spend the coin to make that dish extra special. Packed with intense flavors.) The store is small and serves the community in needs. The building is modern and aisles shortened, unlike grocer chains more popular. Which makes navigating the store easy and opens you up to seeing more of their offerings. Something funny but probably popular in those parts, an endcap devoted to Jello puddings. If you find yourself becoming even an occasional customer, it's worth joining their free loyalty program. Most sale priced items are available to any customer. But there are monthly perks that come with the free program. I started coming here because they carry a specific brand of kombucha that I buy in bulk. Revive Kombucha produced in Petaluma, Ca. (https://www.revivekombucha.com/) I'm still in talks with the company to sell me kegs and until that comes to pass, I'll spend about a Benji+ per month on bottles. The butcher area is so pretty. It's like the Victoria secrets of butchering. All their meats are nicely vacuumed packed too. Meats are packed and situated with descriptions that can help even the novice cook find meal planning a cinch. Their cheese "arena" is solid. There are bulk cheeses as well as specialty brands. I'll often rummage through the cheese scraps (basket) to see what tasty finds are available. That basket is often filled with tasty, affordable, scraps. Pricing from a few bucks to less than a dollar. All kinds, soft, hard, semi-hard. Keep an eye out for their smoked hot pepper cheddar. It is good. I hope they keep revive. If they keep me happy, I'll please them with my Benjis. read more

Beautiful grocery store -- but I'm not sure if I'm really as happy about this Heinen's location versus other ones. Since Heinen's is on the high end for price (closer to Whole Foods than Mariano's), I expect a bit more out of the store to justify these prices and draw me away from lower price alternatives. This Heinen's is smaller than other locations I've been to, with a parking lot that's not really the most friendly to navigate through. There's less selection of items, with a mix of conventional, natural, and organic throughout the store. As usual, the displays are impeccable, perfectly stacked, and arranged in a very attractive manner. In fact, if you place any items out of place, you can expect these to be restocked quickly and quietly -- almost like you're shopping in a museum. Seriously, Heinen's is like a work of art in how precise it operates and how beautiful the store and its displays look. The lighting is also great, layout is logical, and the aisles are pleasant to walk through. They also stock a good selection of high quality items, similar to what you'd find in whole foods -- but with the smaller store size here, I would've rather they focus more on the premium items rather than providing a complete assortment of items. They're not going to be the cheapest on the standard items, so i would've been happier if they only provided items between premium to very premium quality or more selection of specialty items. I would've liked to see more international items, low-sugar / low-salt options, items from local brands/farms, etc. The location does do well though with stocking Jeni's Graeter's, Halo Top, and other premium ice cream brands. The meat is wrapped perfectly, with no unattractive looking cuts or noticeable oxidation. The salad bar is arranged very neatly with plenty of options. The produce section is impressive, with a beautiful array of colors from the different items. There's tons of prepared food options at reasonable prices, rivaling the quality of local restaurants. The bakery is super impressive as usual (probably the only main chain rivaling Mariano's in quality), with items that are just as good as most dedicated bakeries. Overall, a good place to get premium food items -- but I wish they'd made better use of their limited space. read more

Finally, I found this tahini sauce in their store, FUN Sesames tahini sauce. Its a delicious and healthy sauce/dip. You can pair it with anything. It was a great experience shopping in this store. read more

Heinen's Grocery Store - FUN Sesames Tahini Sauce - Grocery Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

One of the best grocery stores. The selection of produce, dairy and meat at Heinen's just does not compare to other supermarkets. You can find here a lot of local products. The beer selection is great. The store is well organized, clean and well lit. The staff is always ready to help with recommendations. read more

The produce and meats are excellent. I used to shop at Whole Foods Northbrook. Prices are similar but no service at While Foods and no baggers at checkout. Amazon stripped out the service and left the high prices. Heinen seems better value overall. read more

The best grocery store in the area. Great produce, we love the bakery, fantastic meat and fish departments. I cannot say enough about this store and the service. read more

We're new to the area and Heinen's is our go to grocery store. The produce is always fresh and the variety of fruits and vegetables is wonderful. As for service there is always someone nearby asking if you need any help. The bakery is great. I love their pistachio cookies! The store is clean and the signs make it easy to find what you want. The people working the registers are friendly and helpful. read more

The employees harass customers!!! Was few minutes before closing, and just needed to grab cooking oil, i run out the house across the street, and they wouldn't let me in the store, even though it wasn't 7pm yet. I begged the employee, that i just need 1 minute, and i'll be out. He pushed me out with his body, and screamed " leave now" or else!? Call police on me, I guess! read more

I've gone here several times and to be honest, it may be a very clean store but the guy and girl that work the fish dept. are the RUDEST people I've ever encountered. Sarcastic every single time, very impolite and don't bother asking them a question without getting a response as if you're asking a stupid question. For example, I was in there and asked if the crabmeat and shrimp salad was real crabmeat. The woman says "Nooooo", so you see the price? It wouldn't be that cheap if it was real. In all actuality, I wasn't even considering he price until I knew if it was real or not. I won't be going back there again. The guy that works there, can't stand his job. It's clearly obvious. He can't even look at you or say thank you, yet alone, ask if he can help you. Disgusting place. read more

Have been shopping here more and more since it opened. Yes, more expensive for some things than Jewel, but far superior in so many ways, it is worth the longer drive for a better shopping experience and food quality. As another review stated, "The produce section is impressive, with a beautiful array of colors from the different items. There's tons of prepared food options at reasonable prices, rivaling the quality of local restaurants. The bakery is super impressive..." The prepared foods are becoming a real temptation. For most trips we grab soup and or a sandwich to eat in their dining area. The little French bread loaf with the soups is a fav. At the prepared counter the choices are many and if they have pepper steak we buy it. Sorry, if they are out, we possibly took all of it, There is a frozen Sticky Rice, by a company name which starts with I. Larger amount in package than what I usually have from Trader Joe, so there is enough with sometimes leftovers. (Not that there is much chance of there being any peper steak leftover.) The best customer service, and if you need help there are enough PLEASANT employees on the floor to take you to where you will find what has eluded you. No other stores seem to care how you fare after they tell you what aisle to look in, if you can even figure out the aisle numbering without that being a challenge too. Watch the sale prices, and the overall cost is comparable to other larger chains. Enjoy yourself, shopping here is actually pleasant. read more

Since Amazon bought Whole Foods and went WAY downhill from it's former days of glory, and since Kroger bought Mariano's and basically ruined it, to the point where their stores are so gross now that I won't even walk into a Mariano's anymore, this is pretty much the last grocery store chain that is somewhat decent. (NOTE: I didn't pick on Jewel because Jewel owns the fact that they are the "bargain bin" grocery store chain, and you know what you are getting into if you choose to shop there) Although I wouldn't go so far as to say that Heinen's is the "end all, be all" of grocery stores, they do a pretty damn good job, and should be commended for that. The stores are clean, they have a good selection of staples (cereal, paper goods, condiments, etc.), but they also have a fairly decent deli, meat department, and bakery...Customer service is also [relatively] excellent here, although with their competition, the bar is set VERY low. read more

Heinen's is a bit like Marianos and Whole Foods, selling and displaying high quality food. They have a great salad bar with some my favorite salads. I want to try the Blue Cheese potato salad! Their soups are great too. They have a neat wine and beer area where you can sample some of both for a price. Nested around the store are small sample trays to taste lunch meats, cheeses, etc. Some of the meat prices are steep but their meat is higb quality. read more

Heinen's Grocery Store - Grocery Near Me - Glenview, Illinois

Best experience I have ever had. Very friendly, super clean and professional staff. Very eager to help out and very knowledgeable on all produce. Everything here seems really fresh. It smells nice it's well lit, and you can tell the owners put a lot of effort into keeping it clean. From the frozen meat and fish department to the bakery. Breads are freshly baked. Large selection and very well organized. The shopping carts were clean with a variety of sizes. I found everything I needed. Thank You to all staff members for making my shopping experience easy and very none stressful. read more

I'm not sure exactly what coaxed this non-crowd person to come to opening day, but my hubby suggested we check it out and I went along with him...and we brought the kids. Won't do that again! Lots of samples today, so if you're looking for a meal, you can probably come out less hungry. To sum up our experience, my one son had so much anxiety at the soup tasting station because, "there are too many old people crowding everything!" And, he couldn't be more accurate. Wow was this place crowded with seniors looking for a free meal! I have nothing against seniors, but it was a little out of hand today for sure. Okay, back to my review. Here's my take on the place... Size: It's a big footprint with crowded aisles and not a lot of walking space. Parking: Poorly designed and someone will get run over in the lot. Chaos personified! Customer Service: The employees were stressed out looking, and though they sincerely wanted to smile and say hello, they just couldn't quite get there. Pricing: Similar to Marianos. Canned goods were priced cheaper than Jewel. Product: - Ginormous salad bar and cheese section. - Hot food bar looked good, but it was super packed with people. - An entire gluten free section - Huge wine section - Regular grocery store brands - Great produce section - decent size with a mix of organic and non-organic - Nice meat section - Great seating/cafe area so you can come and eat! My favorite part about this store...all the fun independent brands that are spread throughout the displays! Raw honey from Wisconsin. Several different types of peanut and almond butter. Fun olive oils and coffee brands. Different sauces. Sure, some of them are a bit pricey, but this is the Whole Foods part of the store. Will I shop here again? For the salad bar yes! However, it's a bit out of the way for us, so they come to Bannockburn, there's a good chance our out-of-the-way grocery trips will be spent at Marianos. We also still love Jewel because they close at midnight, and we've been known to do our shopping at 11pm. read more

Great service and ambiance in addition to great food choices, OTS and prepared-- all good.

The staff here is very friendly. They have a great selection of high quality products. It is definitely one of the best grocery stores in the Glenview area. They also have a lot of parking. The store is very clean and has good protocols in place. read more

5/5 because of the ambiance of Heinen's. I really love this grocery store, but could never afford to shop here on a weekly basis. It's close to where I work and I needed to grab a Mother's Day gift. Their flower/plant selection was great this year. Of course this was all I planned to get, but $75 bucks later Hubs and I finally made our way to check-out. We dropped a pretty penny on the prepared foods (soup station, build-you-own-salad and sushi) none of which I thought were any better than their competition (the less expensive Mariano's). Heinen's is great for grabbing a couple of things if I need them or specialty items, but no more. The nice customer service, clean parking lot and store left a positive impression. I'll be back. read more

I think Glenview is a beautiful suburb, and I live nowhere near there, but I am seriously considering making the trek once a week to shop there; that's how much I love this store! It's much better than Mariano's and Whole Foods. There is a great variety of produce and the meat and fish is very fresh. The salad bar is spotless and everything is ultra-fresh and clean! The aisles are wide, everything is displayed beautifully and best of all, the people that work there are very helpful, happy to see you, and understand what Customer Service is!! I LOVE Heinen's!! read more

Great grocery store in the heart of Glenview, staff is always around to help. They have a great flower selection!

Great little market-style grocery store. If you're looking for variety, look elsewhere. That's not the focus of Heinen's. However, they do have a solid selection of ready-to-eat foods, beer/wine/liquor, and healthy options. You just won't find cosmetics, pharmacy, etc here. For a neighborhood market, this place shines. They even serve beer and wine to enjoy while you shop. It really is a nice place to meander throughout as you gather your essentials for the week or just your meal for the evening. I often grill and will come here for delicious sides to complement our steaks. Stop by and see for yourself. Feel free to include it as part of date night. It's that nice. read more

I went to get some of their pre made meals. I had checked Instacart and the selection looked great. But I wanted to see for myself. The outside of the store is beautiful, gorgeous mums and pumpkins for sale. Inside there was a great selection of groceries, all priced a few dollars higher than the exact same things elsewhere. But this location is so close to my home, I thought a few soups, pre made items like lasagna, cabbage rolls, etc would make my upcoming week easy for dinners. These pre made items looked disgusting. They looked like they had been sitting there for days, the presentation was horribly picked over. Boo. I really wanted to like this place. I was going to buy sone game day snack like pepperoni and cheese but with the super high prices, I realized I could buy them at Mariano's for about $6 less. I even got in line to buy them. The store has been open about 25 minutes, there were only two lines open and it was going slowwwwwww. I left empty handed. read more

Although some items are a bit priciy, all in all grocery shopping is very gratifying. The myriad selection and display of fresh fruit and vegetables is fantastic -- all of the various items clearly marked with name and nationality. Bakery is pretty good, also, but I think you need to get there early for the best selection. read more

Enjoyed our shopping trip to Heinens. The workers are extremely helpful. The produce is the best in the area. You can find a TON of Gluten-free food options.The selection of produce is insane. I recently got some cherry tomatoes and they were the best I had in a long time. I really can't say enough good things about this store. read more

I've always drove past heinens and always wanted to check it out. I heard great things about it from friends. Yesterday I was able to check it out and I was lucky that I did. Heinen's is a very eclectic produce store with high quality culinary products. The store is very neat and clean it's easy to navigate everything and they have a variety of food items. Their produce is high quality and tastes delicious and is fresh. They have a large assortment of health food items I was looking for that I wasn't able to find in other stores. I also noticed they carry items from local small businesses which is pretty neat and you can discover new things each time you shop there. They carry very beautiful flowers as well. The people who work there were very kind and helpful, I appreciate the great service and thank you for carrying the items I was looking for! read more

Very dissatisfied with Heinens in glenview and their soup cups for their fresh soup. The Heinens in barrington and Bannockburn carry the small soup cups and glenviews mgmt will not get them in so the customers can purchase a small soup. Very dissatisfied! read more

Store is super clean, easy to find things and everyone that works in the grocery department are very helpful.

We came in to check out this new store and freeload grocery samples and coupons, which is an honorable activity for a churl. This is a good store for Glenview, because there is no grocery serving the eastern part, nor the downtown district, of the village. Prior to Heinen's, the location was the site of an abandoned Dominick's store - and prior to Dominick's, various different grocery stores occupied this spot since the 1960s. Heinen's is a semi-upscale chain which has recently entered the Chicago market. The store most closely resembles Sunset Foods, a long-established small chain of upscale, but not hoity-toity, stores serving the North Shore. The store carries a lot of "gourmet" and specialty foods, and has a broad assortment of deli items catering the East Glenview demographic. Prices are a bit higher than Jewel, but I guess that you are paying for more personalized services. Mrs. B., an inveterate freeloader, stocked up on free sample coffee, wine, and other noshery while touring the store. The store does not reek of phony pretense and food faddery like Whole Paycheck, so I will give it a four star rating. Oh yeah, my wife added to her freebie reusable bag collection. I think the old bag has about 40 bags in the trunk of her car. read more

This is the only Heinen's I've been to. First impression: Drop dead gorgeous. Lasting impression: Gorgeous and ummmm...great salad bar. Then, ahhh...I can't think of anything else. Analogy: You meet a good-looking person. You're struck with the attractiveness, newness and potential. Bronze skin and smileyness are nice. But they're doing it too much. The smiling. You think, "But can this person make me laugh?" You keep going out (going down the aisles) then you think, "Shouldn't something actually be funny before you laugh? What's with the fake laughing?" Then boredom descends. Your brain starts saying, "So what. They're nice from Ohio. They'll get a little more interesting down the road." Then you think, "Who am I kidding. They're one dimensional. The bronze skin and white smile are nice, but dammit I need more substance." Maybe people in the burbs like this, but if you grew up in Chicago with all it's vibrant and ethnic markets, things here at Heinen's are too bland. There were plenty of staff walking around and being responsive. Very friendly and professional. The store design is stunning and invites you to explore (unlike the new Fresh Thyme Market). Everything neat. Everything in it's place. Then you start to wonder, "What's Heinen's got that other stores don't have?" Nothing really. It's not introducing us to anything. The bakery is uninspiring. There are virtually NO local foods to be found. Lots of Ohio brands or Heinen's brands, but that's not good enough. People want to eat what local producers are making here in Illinois. Should we in Illinois feel good about buying Ohio brands? I'll try Heinen's again, but I keep thinking of the good-looking person analogy. There's nothing upstairs. read more

This grocery store is so family oriented, everything from being greeted by friendly staff and being checked out by local teens. I once talked to a farmer at my train station, and found out that he was there to visit the store to make sure that his produce arrived in good shape. I also saw a couple of Italian suppliers talking to the wine guys at the store. It's all about quality. They get everything direct from farmers and wine makers, etc. I feel so blessed to have them in my neighborhood. The greatest grocery store ever! read more

What can I say...this is our new favorite grocery store. Ever since they closed down "our" Dominick's on this site, we've been waiting for another local grocery store. You know, the kind of place where you run out for a gallon of milk, some bread, etc.? Well, our expectations were built up that something much more was coming to Glenview...and has Heinen's ever come through! Super friendly staff who really are knowledgeable about all the products. Hormone-free meats, free-range chickens, and an amazing selection. Pricey? Yeah, sort of, but this is a case where you apparently get what you pay for. Awesome selection of unusual brands when it comes to pasta sauces, coffees, breads, dairy items, etc. etc. Can't wait to try them all! Prices for staples and other grocery items are the same as other 'ordinary' grocery stores...in some cases even cheaper. Welcome to Glenview, Heinen's. read more

Produce is good, owners seemed to care when they opened, but they did an awful job choosing staff. Almost every time I go, there is some major mistake a worker makes. It seems almost every employee must have never worked at a grocery store before. On a recent salad bar trip, I noticed the mushrooms were unwashed, covered with dirt. Disgusting! With all the competition out there, I think they're going to have a hell of a time surviving. For the record, a container of sauerkraut for $8.50? Seriously?? read more

I love Heinen's! Granted I am only shopping/cooking for 2 but I love the store. Occasionally there are a few things I can't/don't get there but I love the produce department (and I have 2 guys I can always count on to help me). I also like their meat/fish department as well as the prepared foods and sandwiches. I don't find their prices any higher than Jewel and prefer Heinen's any day. People are friendly and I can ALWAYS find someone to help (unlike what another reviewer said). I also like the smaller size and the fact that when there's a sale you don't have to buy multiples to get the sale price!! read more

This place carries stuff in "normal people" quantities that Costco carries in bulk, which is a plus. I like this store but it's quite pricey, which is a minus. The olive oil/balsamic vinegar bar? A plus! $6 for 2 bunches of leeks?!? Minus! Fresh seafood, plus! Not much of an organic section- minus! I could go on for a while, but net = OK! I don't have a problem coming here if I need something and it's convenient if I am already close, but I don't think I would make a special trip here. Prices are a *smidge* under Whole Foods, but without the organic stuff. I think the main competitor to Heinen's is Mariano's. Quality here is pretty good for everything else, so I am sure because it's so close to my train station that i will be making more frequent trips there in the future. read more
