The Homer Glen location is Located at the southwest corner of
159th & Will-Cook Road, and you will find this is your one stop shop
for all your beverage needs. Not only do customers enjoy the savings
they experience when they shop Kenwood Liquors, they also benefit
from the lower tax rate because of the unique Will County location.

of wines to the impressive inventory of craft beer, there is always
something new to see. Come on the weekend, and there are plenty of

knowledge.
Throughout the year, you will find special events including
vendor race cars, tour buses, bottle signings, celebrity drop ins and
much more. At Kenwood Liquors Homer Glen, the possibilities are
endless. The friendly and knowledgeable staff is waiting to serve you
7 days a week, 365 days of the year. Stop in soon, you won’t be
disappointed!!
Since the Homer Glen location was opened in 2009, Kenwood
and Mikey Dixon have been great supporters of camp. Besides
donating to several of our fundraisers, Mikey has allowed us to use
Kenwood as a Tag/collection day location. The Kenwood location
alone raises over $5000.00 a year in donations for camp! Mikey not
only is a supporter of SOC, but many other charities as well.
Thanks Mikey for endless support throughout the years!!
