About

The Grand Food Center and its sister store, Dee Jay Foods, are large enough to serve your family’s needs, but small enough to provide you with a level of service not available from our big-box competitors.

Our produce, meat and floral items are the freshest you’ll find anywhere. Our bakery department produces prize-worthy cakes and cookies for any occasion. Our catering department can be quickly mobilized for your family party, company picnic or school/civic event.

Our mission is simple: to provide you with the freshest groceries in a friendly atmosphere that will keep you coming back.



With stores in Glencoe and Winnetka, the Grand Food Center has been distributing groceries throughout the North Shore since 1987. Our owners met as bag boys at Dee Jay Foods (when it was called Lakeside Foods) while attending New Trier High School in the 1980s.

The camaraderie
shared by co-owners Dan Klebba, Kevin Salus and Chris Barber continues to define our hometown values as "your local grocer."

Our locations also hold a place in North Shore grocer history: Our Winnetka store is among the last, free-standing Atlantic & Pacific (A&P) grocery stores. It was prominently featured in the 1990 movie “Home Alone,” where actor Macaulay Culkin shopped for supplies to outwit home burglars.

Our Glencoe store (known by many as “Dee Jay Foods”) was built in 1953 on the former site of the National Tea Store. Until the Depression, the National Tea Store was Chicagoland’s largest grocery chain, touting nearly 600 stores in the Chicago area alone.

Although the names and owners have changed, both locations continue to provide the finest of grocery products to the North Shore. 


As the grocer to the North Shore, The Grand Food Center is proud to support local charitable organizations that help make a difference in the neighborhoods we serve.

There's a special place in our heart for local schools, places of worship, and our community food pantry.

Since 1987, we have donated more than a $1 million to charitable organizations throughout the North Shore. To request support for your charitable program or local effort, please send us an e-mail at:
