Taking 47th then Halsted is true recomendable to open wide on the turns. Everything everyone saying about very tight but ample room in front is true some local trucks may block you from completely straight backing at first depending. This place starts receiving at 6am and move pretty quick you can go in gate whenever any local trucks or employees leave no issue.
Awesome guys, from I-94 make sure you exit on 47th rd otherwise you will run into low bridges.
Very nice,Quick unloading. Came one hour late to my delivery and got out in hour, thanks
Excellent place. I was a day late due to weather. They still got me in first thing in the morning and unloaded me quickly. I was on my way in less than an hour. Plenty of room to turn. Easy to find, secure gated area. Staff is efficient and friendly. The docks are a little close together, which wasnt an issue until right before I left, because they had us spaced out.
Not bad at all to what other people say. I had a 9am appointment got there @ 8:15 for delivery checked in out by 9am. Tight yes but plenty of room to do what you have to do. With that experience I wouldnt mind going there again.
Extremely tight doors, 1:30 unload and they allowed me to park for about an hr. Enter 899 45th street
As advertised. If you read the other reviews. Quick unload. Dock doors are super close to each other. Plenty of room for a straight back.
Receiving By appointment onlyNo overnight parking3 -4 hours in and out
Fast unload. Friendly staff. Plenty of room to back..docks tight but not too bad. No overnight parking. Great receiver.
Good beverages and good people
Make sure you make your appointment or reschedule.
Easy in and out
Terrible communication TERRIBLE!!
Broker told me it was 8 am appointment. Arrived, and was informed the broker had canceled that appointment! They did me as a work-in and I was empty in about 5 hours. Thank you, Lakeshore! I appreciate you making lemonade out of this JB lemon! They couldve made me leave but instead assigned me a door and let me rest after driving all night from Rochester, NY.Previous directions are perfect. Exit 56B (47th street). Go west to Halsted, T/R (Walgreens on corner) onto Halsted and T/L on 45th st then take first driveway on the right for delivery entrance.Pull up to gate, push intercom button. Pull up and park. Take paperwork to red door by dock 1. Push intercom button. Enter and go up stairs and wait at top (due to COVID19) and they will come take your BOL shortly.Yes, docks are closely spaced but there is a large enough space in front of them to straight back to the dock after sliding tandem and removing your load locks or straps.
Enter off 45th street and stop by door 1.. they’ll direct you from there. Parking lot is big so the 1st set of docks is nice. But the 2nd set where i was is SUPER TIGHT!!! Chicago style garage door backing into. But Overall not a bad place. NO overnight parking thoi was hauling water this trip not beer
The guy I spoke with on the dock when I arrived was cool butSo far its taken over 4 hours to unload my trailer that was 2/3 loaded with beerbut this was a good test to see if Ill accept any more runs to this placeBy the time I actually get unloaded I will still have to face probably an hour to an hour and a half Chicago traffic to get back to my terminal so this could very well turn out to be a six-hour ordeal just to make one delivery
Been here two hrs, still not unloaded.. Someone dropped a trailer in the dock next to mines, AFTER IVE BEEN HERE 45 MINUTES, theyre working on his trailer before mine..No worries, i have nothing lined up after this, so Ill just capitalize off of their laziness getting detention money..
15 min unload
Ive been waiting outside the receiving office for more than 45min as the sign says to wait outside the door and NO CAME outside to take my bill, the lady in office said that shes coming but she sit there talking with anyone going in which means she has plenty of time to come see why I was standing outside but she did not. Crazy place and even people there comparing to other beverage places .hope will never come back here .
I cant complain, trailer was unloaded and I was out before my appointment time.
A bit hard to find if Its your first time going there. GPS Will put you in front of there building. To get into the lot you have to go and use 45th street. Go proximity a half block and the entrance will be on your right. Go thought the gate/fence.That will be on the South side of the building.
Quick unloading, gotta have an appointment, best way to the place is exit 47 street, N of S Halstead and turn Left at 43rd... 1st driveway on right to receiving... big yard easy in and out ..👍🏼👍🏼
Best way to come in is 47th st go west to halstead turn right go to 45th st turn left ist drive on right. Dont take early by appt open gate at 7 am
Delivering full load, in-out in 55 minutes.
Worst docks in all of Chicago ! Doors so close together that truck damage is inevitable and I saw it today. Whole door of a trailer ripped off. Tractor mirrors WILL be touching the next guys truck ! If you care about your money maker stay away from this place !
Not bad at all, never had issues out of all the times I been here
Once you know truck directions . good.low bridges. Do not use Google maps.
Overnight parking if you sneak through the gate after an employee, seems to be a common thing.Appt only. Fairly quick unload for a beer place.Very tight docks, had to fold my mirrors in for guys to get beside me. Plenty of backing room thouvh
Quick and efficient unloading time right dock doors but plenty room to back in no overnight parking available
Worst place I have ever see in my truck driving experience. If you have a choice do not come !!
Easy for delivery but by appointment Only. Staff friendly.
Docks are tight but they have space to maneuver. People are very helpful.
Nice staff, unloaded quickly but you better be their before 1pm to get unloaded...6a-1pm delivery times and by appointment only...
Very Quite
Ovn pk if you dare. Lock your doors here. I had a guy try and get in trying to sell cologne and dvdz but it was locked. I told him to get the heck gone. But as far as the beverage place goes they are pretty good. Not very quick but not severely slow.
Im Happy To Be Employed By The Company
Friendly people but if you plan to work 5am. I guarantee your getting of at 5 pm...and your check will be $50. Make sure you get along with your driver.

Easy in and out. Trucks use 47th st.
Just be on time with your pickup or delivery 1.5 hour tops and you done. And has plenty of room to park
Shipping and recieving was hard to find cuz its off west 45th st
They have a directions phone line. Hours are mon to fri 6 to 1/ sat 6 to ?, by appointment.Gate for trucks & cars at (899 west 45th st.)
The person who work at the receiving window is very polite. But the guy who unloaded my trailer is really disrespectful, dont even smile, he look at me like really mad. I was just calm and still polite in despite of his cold attitude. I understand coz he is old. Anyways, hopefully nextime he would atleast be energetic and have that smile on the face. I say thank you! He never responded! Lol.
I got there early and they started unloading me. If trucking you have to enter from 45st.
Extremely clean and well organized group of people who work together well.
Will this mass consolidation really work?! Three hubs into ONE??! Sounds like an eventual Fold!
Not well marked, under staffed, slow to unload, screws drivers over. Limited hours for receiving
Great work environment, very clean and professional.
Real address Enter for truck:899 west 45th street,use 47 street to avoid low bridges
