BUSINESS CENTER COSTCO. This Costco warehouse isnt quite labeled properly on Google. Its designed to cater to businesses, rather than individuals or families. I was outside of my normal neighborhood and saw that this location was only a few minutes out of my way. I thought Id stop by on my way home, but its important to note that this is not a regular Costco warehouse. This means no rotisserie chickens, and also, disappointingly, no Kirkland peanut butter. Everything is sold in even more bulk size than normal Coscos, and theres no pharmacy or restaurant. Parking was amazing and there was no line at all to check out, but I left without a lot of the things I usually get on my Costco runs.

Now they have added a gas station at this location, yay! This place I shop at 4 to 6 times a year. Its a business center so they have smaller amounts of household items and more large count items, like gallon of sauces (ketchup, mustard, etc.) But I still get here bulk size items like at the regular costco, soft drinks, bread, coffee, ect. They also have things here that you cant get a regular costco like the large cottage cheese, beef chorizo and buttermilk. These are the primary reasons I come here, lines are shorter to, great for business supplies, and better parking so youre in and out quick.

This is the Business Center on Prairie, not the main one on Hindry. I dont understand why some people are commenting on this one as if its the main one on Hindry. You dont have to own a business to shop here, its open to all members Monday - Friday and closed on Sunday. I frequently shop at this one and I love it. It doesnt have everything like the main one on Hindry. Even though it caters to restaurants, food trucks, etc....some of the items they sale are also for a household too, thats why I prefer shopping at this one. Its not crowded and the employees are very nice and friendly.

If youve been shopping at regular Costco for everything but clothes and home furnishings( then this is the place for you. Larger selection of snacks and drinks, items not available at regular Costcos, jackets you can put on while you walk through the enormous freezer section, and the wondrous lack of lines make this place my first choice. Like I mentioned, they dont have clothes, toys, books, or free samples, but they do have a large parking lot that is always empty, and friendly employees who dont mind someone (me) asking a bunch of stupid questions about where items are located.

I very much enjoy shopping at Costco but this location is a special treat. Since many of the items are set up for business owners contractors caterers and whatnot there are often very clever products available at this location not available at every Costco. And as an added benefit they have a gas station around the back side of the building where that chore can get completed as well.

NEVER A LINE!!!!!! NICE AND RELAXING COSTCO.......THE OTHER COSTCOS GIVE ME A HEADACHE. TOO CROWDED AND EVERYONE SLOWING YOU DOWN BY WAITING FOR WHATEVER FOOD THEY ARE COOKING AS SAMPLES BLOCKING THE AISLES. THIS COSTCO IS GREAT. IN AND OUT AND GREAT SELECTION AND VARIETY FOR MY BUSINESS AS WELL AS HOME!!! WORTH THE DRIVE COMING FROM THE O.C!!!!

The product selection here is tailored more toward business owners, but they still have some everyday household items as well. Docked 1 star due to the physical setup of this Costco (there is a long ramp that is the only way to get in). Just make sure you park by the entrance of the ramp and not by the actual entrance itself.

Lots of stuff a small business (motel, restaurant, convenience store, catering, etc) might need. Giant sized packages of food, cleaning and serving supplies, blankets, towels & all kinds of crazy stuff! Regular Costco membership gets you in. Worth at least one visit, no matter what you do for a living.

Keep in mind this is not a regular Costco. Its a business one so everything is the selection is more limited and geared towards businesses. For example, there is no electronics section but an abundance of choices for beverages and snacks. The nice thing here is there are no lines and few people.

I love Costco! Have no idea what that person is talking about no parking on weekends. Number 1 Weekend consists of Saturday, half day open and Sunday closed. And there is plenty of parking. I guess you can say I live there. LOL! They have what I need and the people are so friendly.

One of your workers complained to me after a lady asked where the bathroom was. I have short term memory loss and it wasnt my fault. Pay attention to how your workers behave because I felt stupid after that incident. Overall the business was "great." Totally not sarcasm.

Terrible experience today ... only 2 registers were opened with over 12 business owners in Line waiting to get back to their own businesses. Then 1 cashier decided to closed for break because management told him to. Extremely unprofessional on the part of management.

As for as Costco shopping goes this place has most of what you would expect. Its a business center so a lot of the products are the bulk single use variety. The downside is it is frequently busy and understaffed. It is normal to expect a long wait at checkout

Tuesday morning ... 12 customers waiting and theres only 2 opened register and 1 is closing. That left 1 opened register and no replacement because management decided that servicing business clients arent important enough.

No lines, no crowds, spacious, friendly, helpful and professional staff. Get what you want, even items that are not at the big warehouse stores, and get in out quickly, without the parking hassel.

Any Costco member can shop here. Short lines are great, but be prepared for commercial products and not clothes or electronics. Great for party shopping because of super large sizes of food.

Me gusta esta costco porque está menos ocupada que la que está por la rosecrans

Not as big of a variety of products as a"regular " Costco. But it carts most of the food items expect. Bonus is its never as busy. Store is kept clean and staff is friendly and helpful.

Wonderful selection of items not carried at regular Costcos. Found some fun restaurant supplies. Very friendly and helpful staff. Even getting a new gas station too!

Wendie Fields

Everyone I ran Into here today was VERY helpful! Thank you! No long lines, no sampling, no gas. Great for just the person who wants to shop and ger in and out.

Props to Myesha and her supervisor. Helped us in a jam with an order to Catalina Island that absolutely had to ship the next day. Super accommodating.

For all the home basics much better than regular Costco. Lines are short and service is quick. Make sure you go in meat locker, lots of good deals.
