Mike's Food & Liquor - Round Lake, Illinois

Mikes is definitely cleaner then previous owners. More stock too.

It's PRICY. Worth driving 90 seconds to the other side of neighborhood.

Also he's added the SURCHARGE fee on credit card payments. Essentially charging you money to give him money for goods. Nuts. Others nearby do not.

Happily rate a 4 if fee is removed.

EXPENSIVE!!!!
New owners cleaned it up nice but doubled or tripled the price of everything. Don’t waste your time Arizonas are over priced.
All cigars are overpriced
All beer and liquor went up.
The new owners only care about the money.

UPDATE: under NEW ownership & Mgmt

Carefully check the expiration dates on all consumable products. I purchased a 2L Pop with expiration date of 6 months and a candy bar dated ONE year old by accident. I went back the following day, and manager refused to refund me after I brought it to his attention by pointing out all off the expired food and beverage, he's response was to blame the vendor. I'll definitely check the dates before hand and will never buy from here.

Honestly nicest liquor & general store people I've ever met thusfar. Prices & stock are what you'd expect from a typical corner store but unlike most corner store owners I don't actively avoid talking to them because they're not unnecessarily rude or mean

Would like to give this place a negative -5 stars.
1st, they buy and sell products well beyond there due date. Poisoned my son, and I've been told the same by many other neighbors who also live behind the store.
2nd, after I swore I would never go there again I just needed to use the ATM and was ripped off. See the picture I included from the receipt. It only gives out denominations of 20's and yet here's the 10.00 bill I got with my 20's.
Close this place down. They only care about your money, not you. 🙁

I like this place and the owners son who is always inside. He’s super friendly. If you’re complaining about expired food, go to a grocery store. This is a bodega... you need to check dates! This place is a local tiny neighborhood c-store where I can go buy my booze and snacks, lotto tickets, etc. Not a place I’d buy my milk for example.

Avoid it at all cost ! Most of the things are expired or almost expired. Bought a two litter Coca Cola expired nov 2 2020 , I shook the bottle and opened it. It didn’t shoot out or overfil when I opened it immediately. Called the owner told me to come back to grab a new one and he would refund me since for coming back . I get here next Coca Cola expired dec 02 2020 and when it came to the refund he denied it said he never said that .
