Mariano's Weekly Ad This Week

Mariano's in Chicagoland: reading the weekly ad before dinner

Mariano's is the kind of grocery store people plan an outing around. There's a sushi counter, a hot bar, a cheese case, and an oyster and liquor bar, so a quick milk run can turn into dinner. The Mariano's weekly ad we list was posted for October 21 to October 27, 2026 and runs 16 pages. On AdsSOS you get a scan of the circular, not product pages or prices, so use it to spot what's featured and then check the store or the app for stock.

The edition we hold started on a Wednesday, and the ad runs a full week. We don't have a long enough history to call that a firm pattern, so treat the printed dates as the truth. Searches like "marianos weekly ad oak lawn" or "marianos weekly ad elmhurst" tell us people want the version for their own suburb, so make sure your preferred store is selected on the retailer's site.

Savings programs: what we can and can't say

You'd expect a Kroger-owned banner to run Kroger-style rewards, and the suggestion list backs up that people search "mariano's rewards card sign up" and "mariano's rewards card balance". Loyalty schemes, app features and delivery options can differ by branch and by region. Ask at the branch which programmes and services run there. Those say, in general terms, that members earn fuel points, clip digital coupons and see personalized offers, and that points expire at the end of the month after you earn them. Sign up in the app or at the register, then confirm the current terms on the store's own site.

Is Mariano's open on Sunday and holidays?

The big searches are "what time does mariano's open today", "marianos hours fourth of july" and "is mariano's open on labor day". Hours are posted per location, and holiday hours are announced store by store. If you want a late-night or early-morning shop, check the department hours too: the deli, pharmacy and hot bar often run on their own schedules, which explains the many "when does mariano's hot bar close" queries.

How Mariano's got here

Robert Mariano opened the first store in Arlington Heights, Illinois, in July 2010, a roughly 60,000-square-foot supermarket, according to Wikipedia. The banner belonged to Roundy's, the Wisconsin grocer, which Kroger bought for about $800 million including debt, closing the deal on December 18, 2015. In 2013, Roundy's bought 11 Dominick's stores to convert to Mariano's. Bob Mariano himself retired in September 2016, after nearly five decades in the grocery business, but the name stayed.

A Supermarket News piece described the chain opening in downtown Chicago and Kroger studying its urban expertise.

The shopping experience, department by department

• Coffee and gelato counters near the front.
• Sushi, rotisserie chicken, smoked ribs, brisket and sliders for ready-to-eat dinners.
• A salad bar buffet and juice and smoothie bar.
• Cheese, sweets and an oyster and liquor bar, as listed on Wikipedia.

People also ask whether Mariano's sells alcohol and stamps, accepts EBT or WIC, or delivers. The conditions for returning or exchanging goods, and for any price-matching promise, are decided by the retailer within the limits of local consumer law. Ask the branch for the current terms and hold on to your receipt.

Planning tips for a Mariano's trip

Treat the circular as a menu, not a contract. Read the front pages first, since that's where grocers usually park the headline items, then scan the back for pantry staples. Write a short list, add anything from the hot bar or sushi counter you're curious about, and decide whether you're shopping in person or ordering ahead. Hours and holiday arrangements change with the branch and with municipal rules. A quick look at the signage or the branch's posted times saves a wasted journey. When a sale item matters, call the store early in the week.

Same-family Wisconsin banner

Mariano's has a cousin north of the state line. Pick 'n Save, which is also a Roundy's banner, operates in Wisconsin, and its ad is a good comparison if you shop both sides of the border. If you're hunting for Chicago-area grocery deals, put this ad next to the Meijer weekly ad this week and the Albertsons weekly ad preview.
