After months (make that years) of anticipation, the Red Hook Fairway opens today. The 52,000-square-foot store is the biggest in the four-location empire. We’d love to receive reports (and photos) from any eager beavers who make it there today.
Lots of photos by Callalillie here!

  1. It can be packed but they still have to make a profit. The overhead must be huge- it would practically have to be packed 24/7. time will tell.

  2. So, let me get this straight…

    The place was packed, and the parking lot was packed, and yet some people are worried if this business will survive.

    Hah.

  3. Anonymous 1:04am,

    What is ossetra?

    A prison upstate? A new bone loss + erection disorder drug (or wait…are those the same…)?

    hee..please no one mace me.

  4. I can’t wait to ride my Park Slope mom butt over on my bike and buy, buy, buy. I will stand in front of the cheese counter and hog all the free samples I can get.

  5. How do the prices and quality compare with Costco? And I’m wondering about cowards’ post and whether or not a Fairway so far out of the way will be able to attract enough people. I think probably, yes. But there is a huge market that is not address- the no car/public trannie people. And as more and more stores get built in difficult to access areas, I’m curious to see if the city supports them with more infrastructure.
