Brookhaven Marketplace

This is a small grocery store nearby some shopping centers. Don’t judge a book by its cover though! This has some decent items to get.
The service is great! The cashier was friendly to me when I was buying the items I needed. She was easy to talk to.
This grocery store has some good produce and other items. They look healthy, and the items are actually tasting healthy!
All in all, this is a good and small grocery store. I will be back again.

I’ve become a fan of this store over the years. Quality items, especially produce! You will definitely pay more but the quality you receive us worth it.

Best grocery store in town. Really cheap prices on amazing produce. They have so many exotic fruits and vegetables too which helps male healthy eating interesting! Great deli and huge selection of gluten free products not to mention their beer choices are vast and you can create your own 6 pack!

Ever since Mariano’s open, this place has gone downhill. Their produce is not as fresh is it used to be. Prices are not the deals they used to be. Seems like everyone has given up and they just don’t care about customer service or cleanliness.
Lettuce is wilted .
You don’t ever ask for advanced sales paper. Its like stored in Fort Knox. I mean, what’s the big secret? Aldi, Mariano’s. all the stores put their sales papers out a week in advance. This place just doesn’t want to give out deals.
You would think that they would bend over backwards to keep the little customers they have left. But that is not the case.
What time, I bought some lamb chops and I took them home, and they smelled rancid. I still had the receipt and I returned them. And the manager gave me a hard time… like it was my fault!

Great store, with a spectacular Euro selection. Very clean, neat, and organized. My favorite cashier is Christine G, she is an asset to the place with her friendly, funny personality and willingness to go out of her way to help!

Ordered the Italian Beef package again. Same price, same great deal. Outstanding! My husband went to pick up the order, and came home with just beef and au jus. I called the store to ask about the balance of my order. Each person I spoke to was very professional and apologetic. The clerk asked for my address and said they would deliver the balance of my order to my home. Outstanding! To top it off, they added a gift card to acknowledge my inconvenience.

fresh produce, great deli and people that are willing to help you, what more could you want.
It is difficult not to leave with a cart full of fruits and produce.
there meat dept. is amazing, everything you could want.

Great prices at deli. Always a lot of people at Deli but it goes fast for they have a lot of people serving you. Love their seeded rye bread. Their Miller’s cooked chicken tastes great. Selection of fresh fish is great. Too many great things to list.

Love this full line grocery store. This is my go to. Always great weekly specials.
Great prices on produce, deli and meats. Boars head lunchmeat sold here.
Products from all over the world can be found here. Fresh and friendly faces.

This is usually my choice of grocery stores around the Frankfort /​Mokena /​New Lenox area… I’m never disappointed when I go in here, though I did find out they don’t carry crème fraîche…
No biggie, though
They always have a larger selection of vegetables (which I usually get) than places like Jewel, and their prices are a lot more reasonable…
Plus I love the idea of trying new items from all over the work, like their ghee, and just about anything Mediterranean…
They also have a pretty vast variety of cheeses, breads, and organic products. My personal go-​to treat anytime I go here is either the drinkable yogurt or kefir…
Now that Whole Foods has opened up in Orland Park, I’m sure Brookhaven may take a hit… with that said, they’re products are great, and at reasonable prices… so I recon they won’t suffer bad as like a Trader Joe’s
Brookhaven is strictly groceries… they don’t have aisles for laundry detergents or shampoos and whatnot
As for food… it’s about as good as it gets

This place always has interesting things. They have your conventional grocery store items plus unique foods from «around the world». I’ve been able to find unusual things here such as chick pea flour and other obscure items like ground chicken. The deli has excellent prices on their lunch meat. The produce department has regular specials and can have very good prices but watch what you buy as I’ve seen some of the products out of date on numerous occasions. The meat department has average prices but I’ve had to stand around waiting for help on a couple separate occasions. For the most part, it’s worth a trip if you’re looking for some different foods.

I love love love Brookhaven’s produce selection. Their meat department is pretty awesome too. Their sliced meat/​produce prices beat out anyone in the area.
However, all of their regular canned/​boxed goods are WAY over priced. Even when said items are on sale, they’re still way more expensive than they would be at most grocery stores.
I do like Brookhaven’s e-​mail list, they send out a lot of good store coupons!

I love this place, except for some of the employees, most of the cashiers and one Deli counter lady (who can be heard complaining from across the store, your voice carries lady). Great selection in produce, meat, cheese, beer and wine. A lot of import items here, which is pretty cool. Avoid the center of the store, the prices are crazy.

This is the best grocery store in the area if you cook a lot. The produce section is great– the prices of fruits and veggies are almost half of what the bigger, fancy stores charge (think Jewel, Dominicks) I LOVE that they carry super overly ripe plaintains, means I can cook them that night!
The meat selection is much larger than anywhere eles, and cheaper, I guarantee. In the glass case of pre prepared meats, they have this marinated skirt steak that is amazing! And really cheap. Their pre seasoned fajita mix is super tasty as well. Great way to bring home something thats easy to throw in a skillet or grill.
They have products from all over the world here, so if you are a foodie, you’ll love it. The pasta section is fun! Spices come in big bags of dried plants. Every kind of nut you can think of. Just a great place to wonder and let your mind entertain cooking new things.
The deli section always has a long line, because the prices cant be beat! I think its worth waiting. You grab a number, and check out all the crazy cheeses and fancy desserts that you shouldn’t be eating while you wait :)
Sorry, but if your not big into cooking, and you eat a lot of sh*t out of boxes, youll hate this place. Wont be able to find much of it here. And those type of items are not cheap here. Its just not that kind of grocery store. This is not a one-​stop-​shop model store like super Walmart or Jewel. You’ll have to go here in addition to Target or where ever to get detergent, brand name items, frozen foods. This place is truely a market for fresh food: cheap, good, fresh food.

What on God’s green earth was I doing in Mokena? Funny you should ask… I was hanging out at Brookhaven Marketplace and learning a thing or two about a thing or two.
First off, who knew a market in Mokena would have a selection of Greek foodstuffs that puts Greektown to shame. Apparently there is a large Greek population in this area (who knew?) and Brookhaven caters to the hood!
Fresh meals to go and a super friendly staff topped off by a super clean store, reasonable prices and a decent wine and spirits selection that is well organized and onces again, very well stocked with some of Greece’s finest of wines. The bakery has a decent stock of cakes that can be customized while they take advanced orders at prices that give Costco a run for their money.
Very professional and friendly staff, incredibly clean store and again, really decent prices for an independent.

Brookhaven is the sensible person’s Whole Foods.
The produce section cannot, CANNOT be beat! The deli kicks the big guys deli to the curb. Lots of lamb cuts, and tons of everything you’d eat from the water. They even got escargot, man!
And their sale prices whoop ass. Constantly buying chicken leg quarters for 39 cents/​pound!
And they got all the continents covered. Asian, Eastern European, Middle-​Eastern, Hispanic goods are all represented well.
Oh, and some of the best deals on oil. And a great cheese and sausage bin.
Don’t even go to Jewel ever again if you live in the area, just a waste of time and moolah.

Brookhaven was pretty cool
The produce was Ok, they didnt really have anything thats hard to find or unique. I was dissappointed that they only carried white and portabella mushrooms when i went.
Meat was the same although apprently they have whole lambs.
Bakery was pretty cool, lots of cookies
Deli was interesting had a nice Olive bar, along with salted and oil packed fish
The thing that will bring me back though is the seafood they had Shark, Sea bass, whole tilapia, octopuss, squid, frog legs, sepia, mahi mahi, orange roughy, whole steelhead, whitefish, catfish, crayfish, lobster, crab, about 10 different kinds of shrimp, and they had whole golden trout…
Baiscly though If I was buying anything other than Seafood I would probally go to Euro– Fresh Market on 159^th and harlem because they carry more variety
all in all pretty nice for this area and I will be back!

I come here on a weekly basis because their deli fair is so inexpensive. The line is usually 15 deep. But as I was stnading there waiting for my meat. I had an eye shot through the window, into the back prep area. There was a guy filling up small containers with soup. When he dribbled on the side of the container, he would wipe it with his bare hand and then lick it. The funny part was when he looked up, I was smiling at him. I should have taken more than one star off. But if that is the worst thing that they do. I’m alright with it.

Think of Whole Foods but less pricey and more ethnic foods. Amazing deli section, homemade baked goods, prepared meals ready to just get heated up, numerous selections of meat in different marinades, great selection of dried foods, nuts and candies, awesome produce selection. I rarely go into the center of the store — I just go around the perimeter and my cart is full!
I agree — put one in the city PLEASE!

Wow — I was completely blown away by the prices and quality of the fresh produce (2 avocados for $ 1? 7 limes for $ 1? red peppers $ 0.59 a lb? — in the dead of winter?!) and the range of delicious import items (cans of Greek spiced beans, Italian pastas of all shapes and sizes and Bobak Polish sausages) On a Sunday the market wasn’t ridiculous crowded and I could linger and drool over items to my hearts content.
Only problem with Brookhaven? They need a location in the city!
