Lake Zurich/Barrington Area Magnet for Grocery Stores

In the Lake Zurich/Barrington/Kildeer area, there are about a dozen grocery options.

The Lake Zurich area, particularly the Rte. 12 corridor, seems to be somewhat of a mecca for grocery stores. Between Lake Zurich and Kildeer, the area currently has five stand-alone grocers—Fresh Market, Jewel-Osco, Dominick’s Finer Foods, Aldi's, and Trader Joes. There are two more in Barrington, Jewel-Osco and Heinen's Fine Foods, bringing the total to seven.  There are two more on the way—Whole Foods and Mariano’s Fresh Market—as well as talk of a third--Woodmans.  That’s not even counting retailers that offer large grocery sections, like Walmart, Target and Costco. Lake Zurich also has Ania's Polish Deli which is much more than a deli, actually a specialty European market.  That totals to about a dozen different places to buy groceries…
