The Destination for Discerning Home Chefs

In August of 2023 we will be celebrating our 25th anniversary. Since 1998 The Grateful Gourmet Co. has expanded greatly, both in size and in inventory. We now have two floors and over 3500 square feet filled with products! The Grateful Gourmet has become a destination in the beautiful town of Galena

You are guaranteed to find anything and everything you could possibly need for your kitchen or tabletop. Bakeware, cookware, gadgets, cutlery, specialty food, coffee, tea, …we have it all! You will also find our prices competitive with big name stores. Always make sure to check out our sale room on the second floor – there are always great deals.

We take pride on our selection and customer service. Open 7 days a week, make sure to stop in, look around, and take in the scent of locally roasted coffee and specialty teas.

 “Exquisite jams, preserves, and sauces. Samples available for many products. Also have fun and unique kitchen gadgets, pans, and utensils. Unique items, too. Some of these things I've never seen anywhere else. Must try the Amaretto Honey Butter. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, family operated. We come back here time and time again when we visit the area.”
