August Grocery Store

1500 W Division St
Chicago, IL 60622-3344
Phone: (773) 252-9560
A unique shopping experience
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

06/14/2007 Posted by annarohrer

August has become my new favorite place to shop for groceries. The owners, Angie and George, both have vast experience in cooking and food preparation, and their advice certainly comes in handy when I'm stumped on what to make for dinner. Anytime I've needed help they've been more than happy to offer suggestions and tips. Their store offers basic staple cooking/baking items along with quite a few favorites of George and Angie. They also offer daily lunches and dinners to go, which are always prepared fresh and taste amazing. During the summer they have outdoor seating in their back patio. Oooooh, and the other day they were serving home-made strawberry lemonade, which was awesome!

Pros: the owners and their cooking advice

Cons: some staple items are more expensive than Jewel (but Jewel is lame so I don't mind)
