Target

Good store and location. Plenty of parking. Need to clean the café area more frequently. Tables always dirty.

Currently, my ‘local’ store if I don’t feel like driving for small shopping trips.
Generally clean and well staffed, they often have a clerk who helps funnel you and your purchases to the next available cashier in the checkout area.
The only criticism I have for Target, is sometimes they are not as well stocked as I’d like– especially in the grocery area. Their associates who tote around smart phones to look up your inquiries, while being a nice touch, can disappoint when you went to the trouble to call to see if they had something in stock; like in my instance, a clothes tree. So when I was told by the person on the phone that ‘yes, the database said they have them.’ And I walk there, and a clerk on the sales floor says ‘oh– yes we used to carry them, but we don’t anymore. Guess someone hadn’t updated the listing yet. Here, try some of these over the door coat racks instead.’ Well, I did, but wasn’t overly happy about it.
There are other grocery and retail stores in the area if I want to drive, that tend to be a little cheaper and have better selections, but all in all have to say it beats not having a store like this nearby anyway. So, 3 stars, ‘A-​OK’ it is, but that’s about it.

The Target is the best chain in USA. As an international student, I care about money. I can’t afford expensive food for myself. In target, the price is pretty flexible. I like the location. It’s located on Wabash street, which is 10 minutes away from my home. I don’t have to carry heavy bags on my way back home. You can find there whatever you are looking for. Target is convenient and has a CVC pharmacy, staff is friendly, and has different section of food and beverage.
Target has Pharmacy, which is very convenient and useful. I come here mostly for the pharmacy and the pharmacists are caring and knowledgeable, especially Nicole. I went to the target clinic yesterday because I needed to see a doctor for a bad cough. I got to see the doctor in less than five minutes. The registration was quick and easy, they asked me for my personal information and they filled out the form. If you need immediate care, check out target for sure.
The staff in the store is friendly, very helpful and knowledgeable. Service-​wise, some of the friendliest cashiers in the city seem to work here. The lines are short, the registers are plentiful, and the cashiers have all been so kind. I wish I remembered their names, but if there is anything, this Target seems to do well. Especially Drake, he is a nice guy and very helpful. For example, once I was looking for a good wine and he were recommended me a red wine and even escorted me to the wine section.
Target has different sections of food and beverage. It has everything you might need, and food it’s always fresh. They have their own bakery, which offers different kinds of deserts, brad and sandwiches. You can even order a cake for your birthday. For example, when I had a birthday, I ordered a strawberry cheesecake there, which was delicious and tasty. The alcohol selection is also great, as is most of their grocery section. Target has a wide selection of brands. You can find a lot of international brands all over the world. This target also has great food and drinks in the Pret a Manger café .
In conclusion, generally speaking, I enjoy shopping in a Target. Regardless that Walmart features a larger selection and less expensive prices, my quality of life is an improvement shopping in Target. I love this Target in downtown, because it has a CVC pharmacy, the staff is friendly, and it has different sections of food and beverage.

I ordered some things through the curbside app. I called prior to pulling up to verify where to park and if I needed to call and say I was coming to collect my items. I was told that the app sounds off and alerts them of my presence. Yet, still, I ended the call with a ‘I’ll be there in about 5 or 6 minutes.
Needless to say, I waited outside for eighteen minutes for my curbside service, only to have to go inside in the end.
When I got inside I then had to wait for them to give the young man a tutorial on how curbside works. I was never offered an apology nor a sorry for the inconvenience.
Once I received my items the young man rolled the cart to me and walked away. Never asked if I wanted my things taken down to my car or anything. Will not be using these services at this store again. Due to the horrible taste it left in my mouth, may never use the service again period!

can frequently find good clothing deals, always a sucker for the 3,2,1 sales, friendly cashiers

I love the location and the parking.
Also upper management does well with resolving issues. However there is always a crowd of target employees smoking outside (inside the parking garage right near the entrance). It makes it hard to avoid with babies.
The Starbucks usually only has one employee. The guy that works at night is the worst customer service he doesn’t know how to smile.

This Target is poorly stocked. The health care and grooming aisles are a mess.
This store is also much higher for the very same products at a Walmart. I’m sorry, I am not paying over $ 2 more for a jar of Axe hair pomade just because it has a Target status symbol on it. More money in my pocket works for me. Plus now they have that new Axe size in what looks like a shoe polish tin. A very small amount of the same stuff for the rip off price
of $ 11.95.
Most of the sales people are extremely young under 20 years old and very inexperienced. How about some age related balance here? Not everyone that shops at Target is a millennial.
To top off their pompous behavior, they are going to make most people park further away because we do not have the latest environmental friendly vehicle. Give me a break! Your political correctness is over the top.

Come in here in the morning around 8.30am for a simple return. Go to the customer service desk where there are two female employees. Christine and Danielle. Aside from the low cut shirts exposing way too much cleavage for a store like target, customer service was completely absent. Two girls standing at the register. One customer with Danielle and Christine just chatting up what looks to be a friend or fellow employee. I approach Christine at the register and she proceeds to tell me that Danielle is the only one helping people. What?! Sorry I interrupted your morning chat Christine. It’s not like I’m the paying customer coming in needing something. After a few minutes of waiting in line, seeing Christine still up there fiddling around, I finally asked if there were any other employees that could help out. Christine was then «gracious» enough to assist me. But somehow she wasn’t able to a few minutes prior to that. Go figure. This millennial generation work force really has no clue. It’s all about them and God forbid if you actually as a customer expect a good customer service experience because they might have to actually do their job.

I’ve shopped here for years, but security must be getting lax. I just returned from the store after being harassed by a male customer and security had to walk me out rather than asking the harasser to leave. Not a safe place for single women.

Never do online Pickup here. It’s faster to get the actual product on the shelves and pay.

I live to a Target closer to me, but I prefer to go to this location for its cleanliness, service, the optical department (Dr. Paik and staff), and the Starbucks that beckons as soon as you get off the escalator. There’s a nice dining area to hang out immediately to your left off the escalator, which overlooks Jackson providing a nice view.
Otherwise, this is like other newer Targets, incorporating parking on the ground floor. This location is so much less chaotic than the Roosevelt store, and for that, I’m grateful!

I wish I knew how to quit you, Target. Has anyone ever left a Target without spending at least $ 50? If you have, message me and share your amazing secrets. This is my home base Target I visit most often, and it’s a snazzy one. You’re greeted by a Pizza Hut and a Starbucks right where you pick up a carriage (wait, does Target not have baskets or am I so far down the rabbit hole that anything that holds fewer than a dozen items doesn’t even register to me anymore?!), so I usually take the opportunity to grab a seasonally appropriate beverage to fuel my shopping spree.
Wide selection of items, and this location is typically pretty bright and clean, well-​stocked shelves, plenty of open registers, and has visible staff in all areas of the store. I’ve successfully used the site to store pickup option when buying online several times, and once even got a $ 3 courtesy coupon for having to wait too long for them to bring my item up front, and I hadn’t even complained! One of the better Target stores I’ve shopped at.

Just a suggestion to UIC students who go back to the suburbs. This target seems to charge more on almost all the items, which makes sense since it’s in the city. So you should do most of your shopping at home because what I can get for $ 1.00 at the target in Niles is $ 1.25 here.
Parking is easy, just park in the garage. Besides what I said above, just like any other target with a pizza hut!

This West Loop Target is the best one in the city.
Covered parking on level one with a smooth escalator/​elevator ride to level two of the Target. None of the ramp crap parking of the South Loop location. Multiple entries to the Target on Van Buren, Adams and Aberdeen. If you have pharmacy needs, talk to Bora (if she’s still the head pharmacist there, she’s great). Spacious aisles because they don’t load them with crap like Walmart.
The only thing I wish was better is the produce. This isn’t a «Super Target» so can’t hate them for it but with the West Look still exploding in population, it would be a nice to have.

Okay, this Target is honestly one of the craziest ones I’ve ever been to. It’s HUGE. I didn’t actually wander around the store since my friend and I only had to use the restroom, but I could tell they were packed with all your department store needs. The bathrooms were really nice and clean tho. But get this, they have an escalator leading up to the store, and there’s a separate escalator where you can mount your cart so you can take your items to your car. How cool is that?
If I lived closer to this Target, it would most likely be my only choice to shop at.

Sorry, I disagree. This is one of the worst Targets I have been to.
Pros: covered free parking garage, Starbucks in the store, friendly employees.
Cons: lobby entrance really smelled (not in a good way), and there is no inventory. I came in with a list of about 8 – 10 things I needed, and I left with 2. It’s just frustrating that they don’t have the simplest of items (white hangers were totally out of stock!!!). Shelves were empty or picked through, and when they had inventory, they only had a limited supply.
I recommend this Target if you are just going to stroll around to see if there are any deals. But if you have an agenda and need certain things, I would go somewhere else.

This Target is really great, because it’s close to where I work and it has covered parking. Is covered parking all that important? No. However when there’s 18″ of snow outside, it’s definitely a perk.
Last night it seemed like a few people sought shelter in the covered parking to remove the snow from their car.
I went in hoping to get a shovel and some pizza from the café. I got the pizza but completely forgot about the shovel. It was a ghostland and I liked it. The Starbucks employee basically made samples for the Target workers, and I found out there is a drink at Starbucks that I enjoy.
Whenever I leave the target, I always want to go to the left of the escalators and walk into a wall. I will never get used to the middle entrance/​exit.

It’s a smaller Target location in near west side. It has a parking garage, like most other Target locations.
The organization in each department was pretty nice there. I don’t think this location gets much traffic, at least not early weekday afternoon, even though the expressway and CTA Racine blue line stations are within reach.
My primary mission was to pick up shampoos and conditioners. I intended to make the $ 5 gift card deal work when I purchased four (4) participating brands. Nevertheless, I accidentally chose one of the Herball Essence shampoos and realized it wasn’t part of the deal after kindly inquiring the clerk at the customer service.
She suggested that next time I should pick up the identical items to avoid the confusion. I do have to admit that often times it is difficult to discern what items are included, and what are not.
I didn’t mind the mistakes I made. Moving forward, I will be more careful. I still got to save 5% using the Target card and five (5) cents for bring in a reuseable bag. In addition, Target is manufacturer’ coupon friendly as well.

I went to this Target and I must admit that it is a really nice store. They have everything you need and it’s quite organized in there as well. The staff is very friendly and are willing to answer any questions I had. It was all a positive experience until I went to the Starbucks in there. I was looking at the pastries and they had little bugs flying around it. It was so disgusting. They were sitting in the pastries and going from each one to the other. So disgusting. Unsanitary! It makes me question their sanitation practices regarding their utensils and products.

As far as targets go in the Chicago area this is probably my favorite location.
The store is for the most part fairly clean and organized. The staff is typically friendly, I’ve only come across one rude associate in over 10 trips.
The free parking garage below the store is very convenient and extremely easy to get in and out of. The staff seems to keep the carts reigned in fairly well and the garage clean.
One weird thing is the sliding door entrance/​exit is never fully open? It gets a little frustrating waiting while carts cycle in and out one by one. Just open the door all the way!
The café and Starbucks are located right at the top of the escalators. Target appears to keep the area clean and organized.
Occasionally the escalators become temporarily stairs so in the words of Mitch Hedberg «sorry for the convenience.»
