I like the smoked Polish sausage from here and the freshly sliced lunch meats and cheeses. They have custom butchered meats in the back and prices are reasonable. I won't buy fish from them anymore since getting instantly really ill on tuna steak.

Love it here. Always bring a quarter for your cart…read more Very clean. Relatively small store, but has almost everything I need. Fun rotation of seasonal foods and products. Although, sometimes if you don't buy them right away, you may regret it as you won't see them for another year. Choceur chocolates, and the cheesecake are incredible must have treats. The staff is always willing to accommodate and the checkout is super fast. And for some odd reason, even the customers seem friendlier. Honestly, I'd give it 4. But it's only because it does not have a deli and perhaps more seasonings and spices that I would not read it a 5.

It is a free standing building, located within the strip mall in downtown Bartlett. Because the building was newly built, they modeled it as the new generation of Aldi stores and it set-up exactly the same way as the store that recently opened near our home in Long Beach, CA. It's a very modern store, with a ton of self checkout lines. They still have the quarter-enabled shopping carts (you need a quarter to unlock a shopping cart, and you get it back when you return it), but now they accept credit cards. The prices are still really good, and it had probably the best selection of meat and produce I've seen at an Aldi. It had a good selection of gourmet cheeses, and even picked up a couple bottles of their house brand of wine (Winking Owl).

I've been coming here for a very long time(close to 2 decades, yeah I'm that old!). Ali and his team have been running this place forever and its been family owned for God knows how long. I'm unsure if you need a tax i.d. to shop here but I've been coming by well before that requirement. Huge selection of high quality halal meats, but you have to order it so don't just show up. Call first! I'll be back over and over again. This Yelp page hasn't been updated in forever it seems but this place is still open, right off of cortland and route 53.

I am well into my third year with Wellhausen Farms. Each of the years has been very different…read more Pros: Fresh veggies delivered to my door every Sunday between late June and into late October. Variety of stuff that I wouldn't always think to purchase at the store. Forces me to try new things. Supporting a small farmer that grows food naturally. Cons: Expensive - For $19 a week I just don't feel like I am getting very much, but there is a delivery charge basically included in the cost. The variety comes over the course of a season. But due to the way that veggies grow, you are likely to get a lot of something for a couple of weeks when it is in season. I am often overwhelmed with too many onions, cabbages, greens, etc. in any given week or consecutive weeks. Actual farm is in Wisconsin, not IL. Not really as local as I had hoped. But what did I expect since I live in the Chicago suburbs. Tomatoes are delivered green. It just isn't the same. I have also purchased the bulk beef and pork from Wellhausen. I was interested in getting a variety of farm raised meat wrapped in old fashioned butcher paper. My first disappointment was when I received the meat and it was only wrapped in a single sheet of paper that ripped easily was the frozen beef poked through it. I gave this feedback to Farmer Jim and he said he would pass it on the the butcher. Then the next year I ordered a half of a pig. The wrapping has the same shortcomings. One observation about naturally raised cows... the meat is very lean. What I learned is that I actually like a little fat in my beef. For instance, the ribeye was so lean that it was too tough and dry for my taste. I am really torn about how I feel about doing business with Wellhausen Farms. Each year I have reasons why I say that I am going to cancel, but then I keep doing signing up and hoping that things will get better. I really like the idea, but I am not fully satisfied with the execution. I just can't use this many onions! I am giving a 3 star rating because they are good, but not great. Perhaps my expectations are not in line with what Wellhausen has to offer. Perhaps someone else will love them. I don't discourage anyone from giving this a try, I just cannot heartily recommend it. Maybe next year will be better...

You get fruit and vegetables! We ended up with three large pumpkins last year that my daughter is still talking about. I love that it gets delivered to my door. The first few weeks we weren't sure what time it would be dropped off, but once Farmer Jim gets his route figured out, the delivery is about the same time every week. He doesn't always respond to email quickly, but that's because he's a farmer. He works on a farm, not in an office. He's very friendly and really cares about the food he grows. We have been very happy!!
