First time stopping in today…won’t be the last! Competitive pricing and great selection. Friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff. Clean store well laid out. What’s not to like?
My favorite store in this whole town!! I’m here almost every day. 100 % can say that the atmosphere is incredibly inviting & the staff is so friendly & helpful. I don’t even bother going anywhere else!!
Great staff very friendly
Not open according to the posted hours, had to wait for them to open. Still looks forward to going in though, looks like a cool spot. Just wish it was open at the correct time.
It would be nice if my vape didn’t hit for 8 seconds after I’m done with it.. garbage not coming back
Never open when they say they are. I come everyday at 8:30 and they’re never there.
It’s an ok store, clean and nice. The cashier did however give me the wrong pack of cigarettes twice.
2. Liquor ‘n’ Wine
Address: 1140 N 7th St, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
The male cashier was either drunk, on drugs, or something was wrong with him. He said one of my friends was trying to take a picture of him, but she said the pizza in the car smells good. We paid and left because he was creeping us out.
I was told you guys are charging people $48.00 for a 4 pack of 120 Minute IPA, and $40.00 for a 4 pack of 2019 KBS. If you want to continue good business with your customers, it would be wise to lower your prices. Those are WAY over the top. KBS goes for $23.99 AT MOST, any other place, and 120 Minute IPA goes for $9.99 a bottle ANYWHERE else. That’s one hell of a markup.
Used to go there till the owner treated me like I wasn’t important enough for his business..the people that work there are awesome !! Not the owner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3. Rochelle Ace Hardware
Address: 1383 N 7th St, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Small town store but with most everything you need for general repairs.
Great store. The staff is very knowledgeable.
Great store, helpful, friendly, available staff. Good selection. Quality products. Family friendly
Pretty good on prices and local
Great selection and pricong
Usually have what I need…
Seems staff is changing daily. Don’t trust there answers to your questions. Not my number one choice any longer
Always thought this was a good place to pick up a needed hardware item. However, they do not adhere to the mask mandate set by the Governor during the pandemic to protect people, and have even put up a sign on the door advising it’s “your discretion” regarding wearing a mask. No employee or shopper wearing one except me at time of my visit. Very disappointed that Ace does not care more about their employees’/customers’ health. I will not shop there at this time.
They are defying the state mask mandate. Never shopping here again ever.
4. R.P. Home & Harvest of Rochelle
Address: 1240 N 7th St, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Very helpful, patient, dedicated staff in locating store products. Good quality items – clothing, housewares hardware, tools, etc. Always look forward to the healthy quality garden plants and supplies in the spring.
Big R has a large variety of items at competitive prices. Their staff is very helpful.
Chicken food
Nice store, first time shopping there.
Found what I needed and workers always helping
It’s like going to a small Farm & Fleet.
Staff is very friendly & helpful. Has everything but the tire service.
Not real impressed with the selection. Feel Big R was better. Prices are outrageous. No sales anywhere in the store. Especially after Hunting season? Nothing.
***Update*** Due to the smart A** remark from the Store itself. Ill give it 1 star, wish it could be zero. Im not blind, I clearly saw ZERO sales. Full aisle worth of camo gear. Not one sale, and WAY over priced. $19.99 for a cheap thin camo face mask. No sales to be found
Don’t have a lot of the stuff I am usually looking for, or is more expensive than other competitors in the area. Only good thing really is the people that work up front. Most clerks in departments are rude or totally ignore you.
Do not even think about working for this store! Unless of course you want to be treated like a child, and work for “kids” on a power trip!
5. Dunkin’
Address: 213 IL-38, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Food and customer service are top notch. The only concern I have is that a customer had a dog inside the establishment. IMO, that’s a bad business practice. May consider another Dunkin Donuts next time….
Had a hot chocolate and a Bavarian creme donut, it was ok.
As one of the only drive thru coffe shops in the area, you do a fantastic job of keeping up with business. The line is out to the street sometimes, but it keeps moving! Those kids are friendly and hard working!
Only thing I miss is your happy hour prices, so i hope that comes back real soon.
I was so so pleased with my lattee tonight!! I went through the drive through DURING HAPPY HOUR, got my drink super timely for how busy the drive threw was. I got it home took the lid off and this latte had the nicest foam on it. Omg. They are REALLY doing a great job!! Great job Rochelle DD keep it upaa
Horrible poured coffee all over my senior citizen dad. Messed up the order. No sugar . Tried to talk to them and they screamed threats and racial slurs. Really messed up.
They didnt have many customers, but still moved kind of slow. Also seemed more interested in talking with each other than helping customers.
Pricing needs to be more transparent. Signage says cold brew medium with cold foam. Charged 3.70. Extra for foam. Ridiculous. May try again, not sure.
6. Love’s Travel Stop
Address: 400 S Steward Rd, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Nice clean Love’s with good employees, no waiting for scale tickets, check out etc. They right there waiting to assist you.
Exelente servicio
Restrooms were clean Chester’s Chicken tenders were very good
Decent gas station
It was great and had amazing food
Stay away from the #11 at Hardee’s. The sandwich was completely nasty & under cooked.
Krissy works there
One star to much for the service 4/29/2022

7. The Artists’ Garden
Address: 407 Lincoln Hwy, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
My family and I painted at The Artist’s Garden over the weekend as an early Mother’s Day celebration and we couldn’t have asked for a better evening. Teresa had our paints, canvases, brushes, etc. all set up so nicely prior to our arrival. She walked us through how to paint wildflowers and created a laid-back and comfortable atmosphere for everyone. After we finished painting, we walked over to Acres Bistro, which is connected to The Artist’s Garden, and enjoyed some delicious food and drinks. I recommend getting the deviled eggs as an appetizer. 🙂 The entire place is inviting and we’re looking forward to visiting The Artist’s Garden the next time we’re in town!
This is such a great little boutique! I love the atmosphere, and the variety of goodies!
8. Pilot Travel Center
Address: 1201 IL-38, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Its nice out here
Store was clean , showers, laundry room
Excellent customer service everyone is nice out here.
Really clean…it’s a newer pilot!!
Nice and clean. Also good prices on gas
Went in there to get gas plus it was much less than were I go, the place was clean and staff were outstanding.
I just got gas
New store, very clean, well stocked. Nice restroom and shower BUT music is everywhere and too loud; in the store, at the pumps, and in the parking lot.
When I buy chewing tobacco, I expect the prices to be similar to the prices at other stations. If one station is a dime or two more than another outs no big deal. But this Pilot location is simply Ripping people off! Or at least trying to. They wanted $33.19 for a roll of 5. When I asked her to ring it up separately it was $31.58. Any where else, literally, at any other gas station within 40 miles the price is $26.50 – $27.40 for 5. You see, what this Pilot station just caused was for me to never stop there again for fuel or anything else. I’m also directing my employees to not buy fuel on my company credit card at this Pilot location. This is the only way consumers have to fight back against price gouging.
Rochelle IL I39 exit 99. The free parking is tight the prime parking is $15. The free parking fills up early even on weekends. Across the bridge on Hwy 38 there’s a large Petro with Repair with alot of parking and a restraunt. There’s also a Road ranger with hot food limited but better parking. The Pilot store is clean hot food cafe style Clean showers.
There so called fresh and delicious has only pizza become this brand new store everything is broke down and the employee the few times I’ve been here have about as much care as there equipment working because I had to wait 45 mins for a shower because no one went to clean them. Any truck driver willing to stay here don’t plan on good service or working equipment. Stay at your own risk there is 2 other truck stop all together stay there they have good employees and food all around within walking distance.
9. Kenny’s Place
Address: 411 Cherry Ave, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Great atmosphere great staff and lots of fun and I don’t even drink
Kenny’s Place is my new favorite bar in Rochelle. Drinks are reasonable, both the bartenders were absolutely great (shout out to Shannon and Jessica!), and the karaoke creates a far better atmosphere than most bars I’ve been too.
My only disappointment is that there isn’t one in Wisconsin. See you guys next time I visit the in laws!
Clean good company.
1st off I went to the bar across the street & if you’re Not a regular You’re Ignored, So Rude!
I came to Kenny’s Place & it’s Probably one of the BEST & Kindest Bars I’ve Ever Been To.
So Much Fun & the Bartender Brittany is Soooo Beautiful!!! Good Place.
Have Fun There!!
It’s very fresh and a clean place to be Lol
Was here recently with some friends. We wanted to order some Irish car bombs and the bartender started complaining asking us to “please don’t make me make them.” Initially thought she was just messing around but she kept complaining so we just ordered something else. Apparently she doesn’t like getting tips. When we were asking if they had the 3 ingredients to make one she decided to act sassy and ask if we were playing a “guessing game”. Maybe she didn’t know how to make one. Also she was obviously drunk. I don’t really care normally but she seemed way too drunk to do her job properly.
Worst experience ever. My husband and I decided to delay the rest of our drive to stop to catch the Cubs game. Arrived at Kenny’s place which has about 7 or 8 TVs. 4 of them showing White Sox gamss. Never imagined they would not change any tv for us. Then asked us what we wanted to drink. Um? Nothing! Thanks but no thanks.. Cubs haters I guess!!
Walked in tonight. Place was busy just wanted a drink. Sat down no one greeted us. Which ok went up to the bar and tried to get the attention of the bartender. Seems two people were working but no one tried to take our order. Across the street at the rack we got immediate service. I really expected more from a small town bar.
10. Wendy’s
Address: 885 IL-38, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Awesome food, mango/pineapple drink is fantastic!°
Yum
The seasoned breakfast fries are good so long as they are warm.
Ok
사람들이 많이 오는듯 하다.
직원들도 친절하다.
깨끗하게 정리되어 있는 가게.
Had to leave. It was like 60 degrees in there. I like it cool but this was nuts. I get it…you’re working over a grill back there…but you can’t freeze your customers.
Their burger gave me diahrea
Dont waste your time on ordering the biscuit and gravy. Its white colored water and nasty biscuits. I think your trying foods your workers dont have a clue how to prepare. The drive thru person doesn’t understand plain English . Then got confused when I told her my order was wrong.
11. Living Water Community Church
Address: 405 N Main St, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Loving place with friendly people that love God. It is a biblically based, teaching church. The music is very inspirational, Contemporary Christian. I would highly recommend going here. This is a non-denominational church.
12. Carl’s Pro Band
Address: 1806 Empire Street Service Rd, Bloomington, IL 61704 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Carl’s is the best! They have knowledgeable, friendly staff and do great work. I won’t go anywhere else.
A friend recommended Carl’s Pro Band to me. I live more than an hour away and had never been there before, but I am now a fan! I’m so very happy with the Mechanical Overhaul & Repad that Carl did on my clarinet! It sounds better and plays so much easier. In addition to Carl’s excellent workmanship, I love the fact that this is a friendly, family-owned business with Carl and his children, Travis and Shannon, working together in the same room! I highly recommend Carl’s Pro Band.
Carl and Travis are two of the midwest’s premier repair technicians. They are extremely thorough and knowledgeable. I travel 3 hours one-way for maintenance on my horns because they drastically outperform all of the technicians in my local area. As long as they are in business, I will be a customer of theirs.
Very knowledgeable very friendly. They treat us beginners with the same respect concert veterans
Super helpful and upfront with tactful explanation of options for the work needing done
13. Daves Mufflers & Brakes
Address: 1100 N 7th St, Rochelle, IL 61068 , Rochelle , Illinois , United States
Young man that fixed my car made me and my car feel brand new!!!!
I hit a deer on I-39, 400 miles from home. Got towed to Dave’s. Put in a radiator, fan and compressor in a few hours saved me a ton by offering new or used parts and saved me hotel cost too, getting me in and out same day. Love this guy and his crew,honest, great at his job, and just a cool guy. I roll thru there a lot, will definitely be back when I need some work done. Just wish he were in my town! John M..Cincinnati. November 2018
I take all my car issues to Dave’s. Great pricing and excellent repairs
Reasonable rates and Dave is a good guy . He helps people out
Do not take your vehicle here. They fried my motor. Very sneaky and despite full
Very poor communication between owner and employees had to take my car back there so they can fix what they did the first time very unpleased with their services…
This place gave us horrible service!! They kept changing the time Of when the vehicle would be ready. They didn’t even call us, we had to call to check to see if it was done.
