Meijer Caramel Persian: For a grocery store bakery, I've been impressed with the doughnuts at my local Meijer (although the selection is sadly wildly inconsistent). A Pershing/Persian is a doughnut that is similar to a cinnamon roll but is made with doughnut batter. Meijer has had a plethora of Persians lately, with one of them adding an enticing caramel drizzle on top of the thick layer of what I believe to be cream cheese frosting. Some may find it too sweet with the combo, but I personally enjoyed it. The cinnamon flavor of the pastry's body is sweet and relatively subtle with no uncomfortable burning/heat to it. Cinnamon granules can be seen in the dough after taking a few bites if you look closely enough. I found the dough to have a nice thick and chewy texture while also being light and pillowy. Like the majority of the doughnuts I've consumed from Meijer, it's Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews read more

This is a big know grocery store. For most of their produce to be way over priced and to have mold covering the entire strawberry. I've found mold on cherrys, raspberries and blueberries I just bought as well read more

This Meijer store was large and had a lot of variety and options. It looked like they typically had great food. They had a lot of non-food items as well. I was impressed with the selection and plethora of goods they offered. This store also had a great location. read more

I've been coming here for several years. I've never had an issue with any Meijers. The stores are clean, and customers behave better here. Parking is a breeze, and you're always greeted by an employee. read more

Big parking lot, EV chargers, clean bathrooms, nice selection of packaged foods, produce. Everything you need when making a quick pit stop from the drive. read more

They suddenly price their steaks etc. BY THE PACKAGE and NOT....BY THE POUND. Very deceptive. NO ONE does that!!

Meijer has ok prices on some of the items we regularly buy. They carry most all major brands. It's nice to have the option of buying things like socks at the store you're buying food at. And using the digital coupons of their Mperk app helps save a little bit. They do often run out of sale items, so it's a good idea to shop early in the sale flyer cycle. read more

I've had problems at the Aurora Meijer before with their "carousel" checkout system, meaning that items got lost when a staff member rushed me through. But the same checkout system (I.e. one cashier, no bagger and a carousel of bags that the cashier fills) has gone from an annoyance to an issue of ableism. Full disclosure, I use a cane. It doesn't "look" like there is anything wrong with me otherwise, but I do need it and lose my balance often. The cashier (a young woman) rang up my items, put them in the bags and left them. Some clerks put them on top of the carousel (either to help me or to ensure that all the bags are gathered, not sure) but she just looked at me as I tried to do this with one hand and not lose my balance...which I eventually did. When I said that they needed a better system because this really doesn't work (I know other people who also hate it and they have no disabilities), she just stared at me and shrugged. Meijer, DO BETTER. Not just this employee, though she clearly needs more training. But the whole system needs a redo. It couldn't cost much more to have baggers since there are never more than three manned lanes open at this location anyway. And you are excluding your customers with disabilities. If it's too difficult to shop here, believe me, I will go elsewhere. Off to email corporate now. read more

If you order to pick up expect your bread to be smashed and most produce is not very good. People are very nice and helpful when you do have a compliment. Sales suck it's Always buy 5 to save. read more

I used to love this location (never will go again) I've gone since I was a kid with my parents, now as an adult I've moved and I actually pass 2 other locations just to get to this one. The past few times I've gone they had workers follow me around the store even people dressed like shoppers, they would follow me all the way to check out. I kinda just let it go but last time I went a man followed me to the exit and the alarm went off, I had nothing with any tags or anything with sensors, he went through each bag and made us walk through to see if we had anything on us, I understand security but I've never stolen in my life, I feel really uncomfortable coming here. Never again!!!!! read more

Great , clean beautiful store. Just happened to go to this one and found the best sales ! Produce was organized and stocked. Deli area was clean and stocked as well. Spent much more than I anticipated. read more

I am SO thankful for Meijer and their grocery pick up option! I literally don't have time to grocery shop and I am super appreciative that the app has tons of brand and price options and the workers who shop for my orders do a fantastic job 9 times out of 10. Every now and again an item will be unavailable and not replaced with another option even though I know there has to be another option available (toilet paper for example) so that is a tiny bit frustrating. The pickup process through the app is great and I've never had any trouble- I select when I'm leaving my house and that I've arrived and the friendly worker is out with my order within a couple of minutes. I only wish the Meijer app would allow us to tip on the app as the staff is not allowed to accept cash tips! All and all I'm very grateful for this app and option. read more

I shop here weekly because it's close to my job. They always seem to have good prices on staples like toilet paper, cat food, cheese, bread, and Powerade. You must create an M-Perks account to get the sale prices, but it is easy to use and is cardless. They also allow $50 cash back on debit card purchases, which saves me from ATM fees. read more

best place to find anything you are looking for. you want food they will have it you want banking bang they have it. you want pet food or live fish you will find it there so awesome. Meijer has great deals buy one the second for a penny. they have any automotive thing you need for your car. You need medicine they will have what you need. this store is like a little town. Love it has fresh food, meat, cakes everything your heart desires read more

100% would not recommend. Especially on the mobile pick up orders. This was a first and last time; Target & Jewel are far more efficient. 1. The items that were out of stock were replaced with items that were much more expensive. 2. We also placed a order for a coupon that was purchase $75 worth of a specific brand and get $25 off. One thing was out of stock, and we ended up losing the coupon, and still spent nearly $70 on the branded products. 3. The pick up took FORTY FIVE minutes. I had to call the store. Also had to call customer service. Finally walked in and literally couldn't find anybody to help us. Not efficient and would never go back. When I finally got ahold of somebody, he apologized and said they were super busy with all the orders.... My husband sat in the pick up spot and said only one other car had been there, even longer than him. So that's a bold faced lie. Don't do online orders if you're short staffed. read more

Alicia from Fashion -- Meijer Aurora had excellent customer service and communication skills. She made sure that I got the right kind of product that I was talking about. She left her area of the store to go to the pharmacy area to find the gloves that I was looking for. She asked the Pharmacy tech for help first before moving on find the product. read more

Fried chicken - thick crunchy crust with cracked pepper. Not my style. Sushi guy was super chill but wouldn't make something for me. Largest parking lot ever. Lots of space for social distancing read more

This store is always clean with friendly staff. The prices are good with great weekly sales.

this is the best store where you could get the greatest dings bro you can go to the Tesla charging station and you could be chilling and if you're lucky if you have a Tesla model X or three you got an extra 28 V at the charging station. And plus it's not that hard to get stuff in there then going to Myers in Chicago and having to deal with nearly 295 people looking for the same stuff basically you can go to Walmart you can even find anything that you could find in Meyer. read more

So disappointed I am a big fan of Meijer because they have everything and prices are very reasonable. I do not think I can shop here anymore due tk the fact that there were only 3 lines open with checkers at what I consider to be high time. Not to mention the checkers are so slow. I don't want to break up w u Meijer but at the end of the day my time is worth something! read more

Good selection and variety of brands. Used to be my favorite supermarket but a bit pricey now. Store is always clean and presentable.

Absolutely the worst managed store i have ever been too. Expect to wait 20-30 minutes to check out. There will be 3-4 employees standing around the Customer Service looking at the lines backed up into the clothing and they do nothing. Try and avoid this place as it will ruin your day. read more

I have always found the checkers to be helpful and kind. Connie was my checker today and is amazing, even found an item I wanted to purchase was defective, don't know how she saw it. Even though they only had 2 checkers open she was pleasant and helpful. what a hard job. Thanks to all of the checkers. read more

We used to love going to this Meijer for how big it is with a nice selection. It used to even be fun to come here at night because there was less of a crowd and it was fun to just be more relaxed while shopping. Gone are the days seeing the weirdo skate boarding throughout this store midnight or past. No matter what time it is Meijer is a madhouse now. It's too crowded and you will always be waiting for the self checkout line wrapped on the outside around the machines. This place legit gives me anxiety just looking at the busy packed parking lot throughout the day or even later at night. Many times we have drove around looking for a spot just to later leave. I felt so uncomfortable when this store was crowded Walking Dead Zombie style inside. We miss the self checkouts that came with the moving belt that were like normal checkout lanes. If you are gonna have us do somebody else's job for free then bring those back instead of the crappy little ones that always have issues... So then you have to wait for someone standing there to walk up to help finally...just to have to wait again because there's another issue to be resolved once again. It shouldn't be this much work to checkout damn groceries. read more

This Meijer is worlds better than the one in Bolingbrook. This one doesn't even remotely remind me of the movie Deliverance and the staff are friendly and helpful. Cheap stuff, surprisingly helpful staff for a discount mega store, and a great garden section. I can't wait for my Kung Pao Peppers and Summer Squash to grow! read more

My wife and I went to get our annual eye examination at Miejer's optical in Aurora, Il. We had the worst shopping experience ever. The Doctor was not friendly at all. All business and didn't say much but that wasn't the worst part. After the examine we sat with a women to complete the process. This women was very friendly with a great personality . But I did not understand a word she said. ( strong accent) . She said she had only been there for a couple of weeks. She was not sure in what she was doing. Terrible experience! A couple of days ago we went to pick up our glasses and the the women that waited on us on the original appointment was the only one there. We waited for over a hour before we were able to get our glasses. The line built up to three different people waited to be waited on. Still didn't understand what she said. Also, they never answer the phone and it was days before they got back to us. Never again! read more

Oh heavens... this place is a gift from God above. I walk into this store for the first time thinking I may be entering a larger grocery store or Target impersinator, or something of the like. OH. On the contrary my fellow overindulgent Americans. This place has it all. Aside from it being well priced and having tons of things I always need, it is situated in the same parking lot as a Chipotle. Basically perfection. read more

Normally I absolutely love this location. It's never too packed or crowded and at they always have good sales. However after yesterday I will have to stay away from this location or maybe just their bakery. I picked up a birthday cake and ask them to write happy birthday with the receivers name. I verbally told the associate how to spell the name as well as write the name down. The associate took it upon his self to spell the name completely different, bring me the cake saying, "sorry if I misspelled" and walked away. This cake was so poorly created I was completely embarrassed to share it with my family for a birthday surprise. I asked to redo the frosting and was told but that's not possible, and a manager was not available. Shamefully I took the cake home because the cake seem to fine however the decorations and customer service was so poorly given I now feel I will never go to this bakery for any cake order nor will I recommend them for future. Of course my expectation to have a clean cake failed however I'm more disappointed in the terrible customer service I received being a customer at this location every since their grand opening. Also her name is "Charlene" read more

Meijer - Grocery Near Me - Aurora, Illinois

I will probably always be a fan of Meijers, simply because it's a giant super store with everything I would shop for all in one place. It reminds of Super Walmart only with Meijer products. I like their deli counter, their brand of can goods and pullman loaf bread. I have signed up for their text messaging coupon deals which come in handy when I do shop there. They give you $5 back if you spend like $75 or more and I tend to do that a lot when I am at Meijers. read more

I've been coming here since 2002 and spend way too much time and money here. I love that I can wander around there at night when I'm bored and need more steps on my FitBit. The selection can vary. Sometimes, the parking lot feels a little seedy. Last winter, there was ice by the door and I fell. Fun. The new renovations are ok BUT I hate that the self checkouts are for only 20 items or less now. I go shopping at night because I really hate people lol and I usually buy more than 20 things at a time. read more

Omg. I don't know where to begin. Well if you like being yelled at, lied to, disconnected, left on hold, and just plain like being disrespected then this is the place for you. I had the pleasure of getting yelled at by one of their employees who works in the meat department. Then I had the wonderful experience of dealing with the store supervisor who could have cared less. This store is always running out if products. The butcher was so lazy he wouldn't grind meat when I asked him. And they could care less if you complain. I predict the demise of this store. You heard it here folks. I'm never shopping at this crap hole dirty store again! With so many other grocery stores willing to appreciate my business why in the world would anyone shop here? It's a no brainer. I don't patronize ignorant, misinformed, snotty, rude, unprofessional morons. read more

Meijer is not the place I think of when shopping for home items whether it be food, dishes, utensils, etc. I do however go to Meijer for the gas. It's usually cheaper than the other stations around. read more

This place is absolutely disgusting. Meijer used to be our go to shopping place but over the past few years it has seriously gone down hill. It always feels extremely dirty in there no matter which section of the store you're in, the produce quality is awful, meat sale items are almost always sold out, and the employees there look absolutely miserable. Not to mention the wait lines for both self check out and to go to a lane with an employee are ridiculous! The main reason that made me finally review this place was because of a particular door greeter. He is usually on the grocery side, shorter guy. Any time I happen to bring my baby in the store with me he always practically runs up to us and immediately begins wagging his finger in my sons face and follows us quite a bit away from his spot. While I'm sure he means well I absolutely don't want some stranger poking at my child and find this behavior unacceptable. The only reason I even gave it two stars was because they do tend to have good sales and a variety of food. read more

Nothing wrong with the store just a terrible experience with their delivery service. I decided to give it a try since they were charging only $5 more and during covid 19 it seemed to make sense. The delivery person texted me at 2:12 saying the delivery may be delayed. The delivery window was form 2:00-3:00pm. Come 4:00pm I let them know they were now 1 hour late and wanted to know if I should still be expecting the delivery. The person was rude and claimed that they were not late and that I should read the previous message. Just because you acknowledge that you "may be delayed" does not mean you are not late. Still no ETA on arrival. Don't do the delivery option maybe try the pick up option. read more

For crowded weekend grocery shopping, I was very impressed! Was able to quickly navigate the store and find my items at great prices, then lined up in self checkout. I typically HATE the self service lines because I feel the machines always malfunction. Luckily, the employee on duty (Jim Was his name I think) was attentive, helpful, and super friendly! Although I live closer to another location, this may become my new store. read more

I can't stand this store, I never spend less than $200, and walk out with very little in food product. Of all the locations, this is my least favorite, though they do keep all of the whole food, ogranic stuff together two isles down from toilet paper. I prefer the Bolingbrook location, the layout is better. read more

Every time I leave this place, I say to myself "That was the last time...no seriously, THAT was the last time I'm ever going there." Silly me for always going back. I don't know what it is...but their deli and produce section is always gross, to me. The floors always seem dirty and sticky. And the staff behind the deli counter just always seems to be on another planet. The rest of the store is fine, they have everything you need and for way cheaper than Jewel or even Target. Even though this is not the store's fault, this is what I dislike so much about the place: it's always SOOOO CROWDED. No matter the time of day, there's always bad parents there, trying to wrangle up their horrible children (who will at some point or another run into you while they are playing a game of Tag). There's always idiots who have no sense of anything or anyone around them and therefore take up the ENTIRE aisle and stand in your way for 10-12 minutes, deciding between the Meijer brand of green beans or the Green Giant brand (seriously, I counted one time). Don't get me started on the lines here, either. I'm not knocking people with food stamps...but I always get stuck behind the people who try to get away with using their juice stamp to get bloody mary mix. And then I get to listen to the argument between that person and the cashier. And all the other people are using the self-checkout line, which is supposed to save time, but the machines are always breaking down. Why do I keep going back? I don't know. The Wal-Mart across the way is 10x worse, and I think Target/Jewel are overpriced most of the time, so sometimes I just suck it up and go to Meijer. But I can only usually stand to go once every few months. read more

Cashier Gita was not helpful, unkind and did not process my order correctly

I don't know what I've ever done to you, self-checkout lanes, but you certainly have a vendetta against me. Written in blood. And carved into every nearby smooth surface. On a recent trip to Meijer, the aforementioned self-checkout machine crapped out on me. So I walked up to the island where the ladies supervising were standing. "Uh... Excuse me?" No reply. "Uh... Hello? Could you please help me?" No acknowledgement. Befuddled, I waited, although they were not helping any other customer nor were they even talking to each other. It took two minutes before one gave me a slight nod and told me to return to my lane, the problem should be fixed. I did. It wasn't. Now repeat the scenario. Again. And again. Because it took a full five trips to the supervisor's station before my machine would accept my card. I've never had a store give me so much trouble when taking my money. I was thisclose to just walking out. And perhaps I should have, because about a third of my frozen goods had completely thawed by the time I got home. This Meijer is a good store, clean and brightly-lit with a decent selection of merchandise. I had a negative experience, but that doesn't mean others will. I'm just not eager try it again. ETA: The staff at the grocery pickup has been, far and beyond, spectacular. The service, which allows you to place a grocery order online and have it delivered to your car, is a lifesaver for the busy (or lazy) among us. But the kids who work there are just great. I even struck up a bit of a chord with one guy who worked there, even sometimes stopping by Panera and picking up a lemonade for him on hot days. Bumping it up a star for him alone. read more
