The ZCM is a real asset to Zion and our surrounding communities.
Excellence music teachers and facilities!
Our family had four children study at ZCM. Not only were their teachers dedicated, patient, and committed, but the whole conservatory atmosphere enriched our lives for those years we were involved. Our kids still practice their musicianship now that they’re adults.
I love our local music store. Stopped in to get my daughter’s cello tuned and look for records for my mom. The owner was so nice and so helpful! Loved the selection of records as well
Amazing!! Love it here!!! ☺️
Jim and Nick are friendly with their Customer
Friendly people
Music store with a nice selection of instruments. Some vinyl and CDs too, although it has very few, if any, hidden treasures. 2 stars removed because the one employee and 2 of the customers were not wearing masks when I visited. I would have spent more time and money here if they were. Stay safe, everyone.
I was very dissatisfied with this location as they don’t offer any instruments that would allow the user to produce the sounds of Echolocation
8. North Shore Music
Address: 405 1/2 Linden Ave, Wilmette, IL 60091 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
Great place to take guitar, drums or bass lessons! My Son’s been in 3 sessions here and has progressed immensely.
Highly recommend! Alejandro went out of his way to accommodate us and it is much appreciated. So nice to deal with a music shop that is not corporate, wonderful to have someone who is proud of his craft and supportive of the community as well as their love of music!!!
This is an awesome place to improve your skills in music. The owner really knows his stuff and the staff is always helpful when it comes to rescheduling lessons. Can’t recommend enough.
9. Alden’s Piano LLC
Address: 596 Thorndale Rd, Park City, IL 60085 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
Alden’s Piano movers brought my mom’s upright piano in the western suburbs to our house in Chicago. We could not have been happier with their service.
This piano is precious to our family and we wanted dedicated piano movers to ensure proper care. Alden’s movers were excellent communicators, efficient and on time, and treated the piano with utmost care.
The fee was fair and reasonable. We highly recommend.
The movers did an excellent job delivering our piano. They were very careful with the piano and accommodating with placement and our request to move existing table to basement. They were very professional and friendly as well. We would definitely use them again.
Thanks for delivering my piano with care
Guys did a good job were quick and respectful.
The financial aspect of my transaction was flawless. The piano movers we’re polite and friendly, but one of the three man team excused himself as they were in the middle of dismantling the piano, they almost dropped it and in their attempt to save the piano, they knocked into the freshly painted wall and put a hole about the size of a quarter in the wall.
These guys are phenomenal! I wouldn’t use anyone else! So efficient & professional
David is a true piano expert! I originally called him to request a piano tuning for my 1933 upright. Instead, when he took the piano apart, he found worn out and missing pads, uneven keys and a whole lot of dirt/debris. He took the time to clean the piano, replace the key pads and sand the keys to restore the piano to the original condition. David even took a good look at my baby grand piano which is in need of care too. David’s customer service and personality is top notch! I look forward to having David return in the future to keep my pianos in pitch perfect condition.
11. Waukegan Symphony Orchestra
Address: 39 Jack Benny Dr, Waukegan, IL 60087 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
This Target tends to have somewhat limited selection compared to others in the area. The staff are friendly and the store is clean, and the lines are usually short.
It’s a nice place for discount shopping.
I was not happy everything Iooked was. Not available don’t think I come back
Staff is ghetto and rude.
Starbucks person was rude as hell. Not my fault she’s working there. They really need to check themselves before coming in to work. Bad customer service they need new people. Corporate will have a call from me.
14. Flatts and Sharpe Music Co.
Address: 6749 N Sheridan Rd, Chicago, IL 60626 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
This is a fantastic music store! They have everything that you are looking for in musical instrument and musical accessories. They cater to the full musician spectrum from beginner to advanced. The staff is highly knowledgeable and goes beyond the call of duty to help the customer out. The repair work is some of the best in the Chicagoland area.
Great people!
My daughter says her Violin instructor is very nice:)
It’s better to walk there, if you’re local; no parking 4 to 6pm….
There’s a pleasant, vintage vibe.
Friendly staff. Fun little old school music shop. Sheet music selection kinda light. Look forward to going back, though. They offer music lessons, too.
I purchased an antique, vintage trumpet for my 78 year old father to inspire him to play again, he played from age 7 thru mid-20s. I found this store to repair and update the trumpet, my goal was to make it usable and as perfect as possible. After dropping it off, I called to pay for the service and was talked into buying a brand new case by the owner (woman). She seemed friendly and was happy to make a sale, I told her that my father would be driving a long distance, over an hour, to pick up the trumpet & case and that he had had recent surgery, and now a difficult time walking – I specifically asked her to be extra helpful and kind to him due to the nature of his journey to pick up his gift.
What happened when he arrived was the exact opposite. He said the owner was abrupt, and not helpful, so much so she denied having the trumpet mouth piece when it was simply on a counter right in front of both of them, he had to show her where it was. He said it seemed she was trying to rush him and get him out of the store asap. She was preoccupied and didn’t give him the attention needed to do a simple transaction let alone with the extra courtesy I had asked of her. My father told me she was very abrupt and rude to him !
I recommend you do your research before doing business with this owner, After this incident I read reviews on another well known review platform (I know a bit too late!) and saw a post left by a patron mentioning that this woman may be racist – I thought, isn’t that interesting, my father is Hispanic. Makes me wonder!
Took my les paul in for a set-up, and it was no longer playable when they were finished. Would not recommend.
I bought a couple things and had a setup done here last year. Their selection isn’t great and I needed to re-do the setup after I got it home. It wasn’t *bad*, but nothing was really done. Also, one of my strings broke in the process and they only replaced that one string.
When I called to ask about it because it had a different tone than the rest, they assured me it was just because it was new and that they used the exact same strings. (The bass was also brand new so that didn’t make a lot of sense, but I also didn’t know much about strings at the time so I took their word for it.
I just took my strings off for the first time since then and noticed the string that was replaced had a different color end than it should. (My bass has a string-thru body so it wasn’t apparent before.)
I don’t know why they lied to me about it, but definitely not ever going to go back there or recommend the place to anyone. Sad.
15. Flatts and Sharpe Music Co.
Address: 6139 N Northwest Hwy, Chicago, IL 60631 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
My kids and I play 3 different instruments and Flatts and Sharpe’s instructors are some of the best in Chicago. Lots of sheet music, too!
These folks are dedicated to the community and to providing quality music education along with everything else.
I am impressed with the quality of work done on a very neglected tenor sax. This instrument had rust and mold on it, the bell was flattened on one side and it needed full pads. The tech did a fantastic job in getting it cleaned up, reshaped and overhauled. Thank you!
I would see him periodically putting a mix together on Facebook live and it always sounded great. He would also DJ for the roller rink by my house on teen nights and I he kept people on the rink skating. I shot a music video at the roller rink he would DJ at and I absolutely wanted him to be the DJ for the video. He was absolutely professional and made sure the floor had kids on it for some of the shots. I would highly recommend him for any event you have.
My first official Dj for my #CTHU (Cracking The Hell Up Comedy improv show). Always on point, punctual, professional, prompt, and knows his music and audience! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Very professional. Prompt & on time to the event. He played all the latest hits/songs. I will definitely be booking him again!
17. Moshis Tobbaco & Vape Zion
Address: 3241 Sheridan Rd, Zion, IL 60099 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
Awesome environment, staff always take care of their customers, great products and materials and very handsome man named Nas behind the register. Ask for him if you go
Best smoke shop inna town
Good environment tons of flavors to choose from and friendly staff.
They have great prices on the ejuice, just not a very big selection, pretty limited. They seems to concentrate more on the disposables. Seems almost like more of a head shop, and last few times I went in it reeked nicely of weed, which I am very OK with. Nice selection of bongs and bowls, fun to check out even though I can no longer smoke. I like the place overall, just wish they had bigger selection of ejuice.
Many of the products are not price marked, so I had to ask the one staff person prices on each item. I then found out they don’t mind negotiating prices. For me the process is uncomfortable especially when I don’t know cost or have a broad understanding of pipe shop accessories. Please just mark your products clearly!
Great prices great selections great service and info on everything I asked about great shop to go to
There prices on tobacco tubes .one day there one price
.go in a week later there different price .I found a place to get them where the price is only 2.50.per box there price is 5.00
18. Walmart Supercenter
Address: 4000 IL-173, Zion, IL 60099 , Beach Park , Illinois , United States
Muy buenos precios, muchas ofertas, excelente servicio…
Great! Got only what we needed!
There are more self checkouts than humans checking you out. I guess that is how they keep the prices lower.
Great selction
Never enough cashiers! But everything is nicely sorted and easy to find.
Good place when stocked
Not enough electric cart for the handicap for it to be such a large store in Zion Illinois.
This Walmart close 30mins before 11pm, so mad there a snow storm tomorrow had me waste my time to come here. They turning away so many people it’s ridiculous! The guy arguing with her to go in
There NEVER Carts and Mobile Carts, ALWAYS Crowded with only 2 Cashiers Open, Nothing on Most Shelves D/T More Workers Working on The Floor Getting P/U Orders Very Very Unorganized.
