Fine Fare Supermarkets

"Bought boxed Kraft mac n cheese and attempted to cook it a few hours later. Found BUGS inside. Weevils to be exact. Beware of your dry rice and pasta. These bugs spread easily so I wouldn't be surprised if they were elsewhere in store."

"Tonight was the last time I will shop at this store. It’s not the first time I’ve found expired food in this store, but there’s a lot of items so I presumed it had been overlooked. But tonight I found mold, lots of it, all over the blackberries that were on sale. And then the field roast section had mold all over them and all over the shelving in the produce section. DISGUSTING! There’s always workers visible in the store but clearly they are paying attention to the turnover of product and making sure their refrigerators are working properly. This place needs to be shut down by the health department."

"Updated 2/12/2020: I was really looking forward to this Fine Fare opening up in the GWB bus terminal. Until now, Key Food on 187th street was the closest option for anyone living on 181st or above. This Fine Fare is nicely organized and maintained. It's also easily accessible from either the street or the subway. My disappointment has to do with the selection of products. First, there are few choices of organic or natural food products. Second, the brands offered are generally lower quality, cheaper brands, alongside more mainstream, established brands. There are few unique or specialty products. Prices are generally competitive with other large supermarkets in the area. Some items, like gallons of water, are more expensive, while other items are about the same. This Fine Fare does score points for serving drip coffee. They also had a small cafe sitting area, complete with a large fish tank, but sadly those are now gone. They also have rotisserie chickens and a deli section (no more hot food bar). And the freshly baked croissants are excellent. Time will tell if the product selection gets a little more varied or stays about the same. For now, I'm sure a lot of people will benefit from having this store in the neighborhood."

"This Fine Fare has great selection compared to other supermarkets in area. I just the had better selection in the meats and seafood as well. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall it’s well stock when it comes to can goods. They also have a small wine selection which it’s alright. There produce area is well kept and organized."
