Olive Oil Marketplace - Alton - Alton, Illinois

I had an amazing experience here! I came in with two other people and the people behind the counter were friendly and informative. All employees were knowledgeable about the product types. They were willing to take their time to explain how each product worked. I sampled the blood orange, shallot and garlic, and Persian lime olive oil. I ended up coming home with Persian lime! I would recommend this place to anyone that’s a large fan of twists on Italian classics.

Definitely a genuine business! I also love that they take a dollar off your total price if you bring your bottle back to fill up. Sustainable and a good business practice 🙂

Hope to see you there!

Wow! What a gem. A friend recommended this marketplace to us. We're glad we came. To begin with, Debbie was friendly and an olive oil aficionado. Second, there are so many options, depending on whether you consider yourself a culinary expert or a novice chef who is just learning about the kitchen. My choice was difficult to narrow down. Finally, I chose: Garlic Butter, Italian Herb and Black Truffle w/Garlic and Squid Ink Pasta! I plan to try Mediterranean Herb, Bourbon Balsamic, and Peach Infused Honey on my next visit. This is definitely a place to check out if you want to gift the cook in your life.

Must Stop By Here. The largest and freshest natural pressed Olive Oil selections I have ever seen. Applications open up all new creative recipe opportunities. The balsamic vinegar at choices are absolutely incredible. They are building their coffee and tea selections as well. Honey is from local bee keepers. I will go out of my way to shop here before I will ever buy what they have a grocery store again. Helpful tip: When tasting, you do not need very much.

My go-to place for loose tea and flavored coffee. Always a fun shopping experience trying the balsamic vinegars and hot sauces. Customer service is top notch!

My daughters and I topped off a good time in Alton today by visiting the Olive Oil Marketplace.
I had such a good time sampling☺.
Owner Julie was amazing, so personable and knowledgeable about the products and creative uses for them.
We left with several different oils and vinegar for ourselves but I can see we will be back for unique Christmas gifts🎅🎁.

Wow. First time here and I was simply amazed at the fine and numerous selections of olive oils and balsamics plus coffees, teas, pastas, candles, spices, and other culinary delights such as jams, sauces, and honey! Wonderful service too!!!

Went in for the first time today. This place is GREAT! Tim & Julie are so helpful & they have a wonderful selection of Olive Oils & Balsamic Vinegars set up to taste - amazing!!! I got a Porcini Olive Oil & a Juniper Berry Balsamic. I have already made a fresh garden cucumber & tomato salad dressed with the balsamic - even my 14 month old baby loved it! We are having the Porcini Olive Oil on our steaks as marinade for tonite. Will definitely return!

We stopped in this shop with a few friends who had been there before. Lots of great products, and they have samples for most things. Everything was delicious, and we spent more than intended, and will definitely be back.
