Best to go during off peak hours...otherwise this place gets crowded with impatient mothers that will run you over with their carts if you don't get out of their way! Good market otherwise
Salmon Steak, Arabic Labne, carob covered raisins, TruffleCheese - they have the items you can't find elsewhere. Olive Oil tasting downstairs and olive bar upstairs are both excellent!
Maine Wild Blueberry Crisp Gelato is made with milk from Maine farms, blueberries from Down East, vanilla beans from Madagascar, and crunchy oat streusel baked in Brunswick.
I really enjoy their pre-packaged foods. Great for a quick dinner. Memo liters are always super helpful. Try and go during off-peak hours as it can get really crowded.
Pedro (manager) acts as if he is on a POWER TRIP, as if being a manager is being GOD. He needs to make an effort to be kind and go out of his way to address customers' concerns/questions.
Had one very positive and one very negative customer service experience here. Same about knowledge: 50/50 on them knowing exactly where your product is or having no idea. Great variety tho.
The crowds can be crazy on Saturdays but I'm used to it now. A whole lot of variety that I can't find anywhere else on the ues. They even have plantains!
Best market in the neighborhood by far. Only Whole FoodsMarket is better, but more expensive for some things. Fairway has some bargains, but is getting more expensive all the time. #foodie
Wonderful place to shop. Selection is down to the joys of life. Fellow shoppers could be a little nicer, social and maybe slow down a bit but the workers are friendly.
Whether you're looking to bake a homemade dessert or just want to have a bit of delicious dark chocolate, you can find SCHARFFEN BERGER Chocolate here!
Great prices and so many great products. Really nice service, too. Puts every grocery store in the neighborhood to shame. Step up your game, Food Emporium.
Pedro doesn't appreciate customers & does NOT seem to like working there either! He needs to learn how to be NICE & explain things in a courteous manner. Customer has a right to ask any questions
If the prevalent narrative is to be trusted New Yorkers are either ordering in or eating out all the time. The long checkout lines at this place flummox me hence.
Great!!! But if your in the market for grapes I suggest Costco where you get twice the amount and like 10 times the quality no joke plus seedless grapes. Paid way too much for what I got.
Nice market with a lot to select from, huge. Mostly crowded so weekends are out da question. Staff are mostly teenagers so u can expect a rude 1 or 2. Good prices but not worth going out your way for.
We seek shoppers...
Who will come to a Fairway Market because they want an adventure.
Who understand the thrill of the hunt.
Who know it takes time to discover something that is truly delicious. Who love to cook and want to cook with the finest ingredients...
