What a hometown shop! The owner is outstandingly nice! We went there for Polish sausage but they had none left. He offered to make us some fresh right there. We took home four pounds of the best sausage we have had since grandma left us!

An absolute gem! It's a bit hidden but they have the best meats I have ever had! Whether you're grilling your own or want some for lunch - it's always a good decision.

Great place...Great food...Loved the ambiance. Thought I was north of the cheddar curtain when we walked in. They grill your sausage outside so it has that special flavor. Brought some home too. Can't wait to grill it up.

Best brat you will ever eat and great selection of beef, pork, chicken, bison and more depending on the day.

Kreger's is so good it will turn you into a sausage snob. So many different brats etc to choose from.
The dine in sandwiches' rock too.

Home-y atmosphere with awesome, unique sausage choices. You can stop and eat some off the grill or pick some from the cooler to take home. Sad it took me almost 2 years to find this place.

This place is hands down the best. I live in palatine now (I lived in Naperville for 25 years previous) and will actually drive there to stock up. You will not find better sausage it is impossible. Ive tried about 7 other "eat markets" in Chicago and in the suburbs and everything is average. This place will exceed expectations. Shop Indy and support local!

Absolutely love this place! When you walk in, the owners have the biggest smile on their faces - they remember you and try and build friendships. Their breakfast is by far my favorite thing! Make sure to try it out on Saturday mornings. I live in Michigan now but my fiancé and I make sure to come in for breakfast every weekend we are in town! Their sausages are super yummy, and the desserts are so good! I love desserts and I look forward to trying something every time I come in.

I drive 2 and a half hours from Champaign, just to get these amazing brats. There are none that come close to Kreger's.

Never a bad meal at kreger's! The Two Piggy Tyler style is the go to but upcoming is the Barn Yard – brisket & brat with Apple bourbon bbq sauce!

Perfect stop for freshly prepared brats :) This place has been family run for generations... marinate yourself in the history and feel of the place as you tuck into some great grilled sausages! Since it's set in a neighborhood away from the hustle - you really feel like you’re at home because you're with their family. We lingered at the new picnic table, taking in the neighborhood comings and goings over Saturday morning breakfast. Treat yourself!

Great, knowledgeable and friendly service. Our first visit here and we will come back! Great for a quick/cheap lunch before exploring downtown Naperville or catching a train. My fiancé and I both had a new brat called the DunnWurst (brisket, blue cheese, bacon, grilled onions) and it was delicious! The soft brat bun and the snap of the brat were just right!!

So I was trying to find a "real" place to buy some polish sausage without going all the way down to Will County to the place my parents used to go. I searched "sausage" and "Naperville" and came up with Kreger's!
Man, these people know their sausage. They have been making it for decades (note the worn-down butcher block) and now make somewhere around 50 types, including many versions of brats, made with assorted proteins: pork of course, but how about chicken, lamb or bison? There is even a veggie sausage so that meat-shunning relative doesn't have to be the odd man out at your family cookout. They also make and sell various homemade slaws and salads, and other butcher products.
Check their web site before you go to see all the variety, otherwise you'll stand there overwhelmed by the options. There are all kinds of unusual spins, as well as time honored standards. Everyone has probably had a standard bratwurst, but have you tried The Viking (with turkey, wild rice and blueberries)? Or Pumpkin Spice sausage with pork, pumpkin puree and warm wintry spices? Kreger's has all kinds of unique items!
I came for the Polish, and was not disappointed: pleasantly spicy, with a good texture and a casing that didn't require a hand saw to get through. I will definitely return to try more of their creations! They are convenient to downtown, on the North Central side of Washington and near the train station, so you can grab some with ease if you're just passing through.
They're off this month on a long vacation so I will anxiously await the return! As they themselves say, their wurst is the best!
