On the way out not realizing I forgot to pay for the smoothie ( had just had bloodwork done and felt extremely lightheaded) the security guard completely harassed me saying I had been there last week and saw me on camera! I had never ever walked into this store in my life. I apologized and said I didn't mean not to pay for the smoothie-went immediately to the cashier and paid. Meanwhile the guard and got the owner/ manager who insisted that he caught me on video camera last week! Again I explained that I had never been in the store before and had stumbled upon it on way from the Drs office. I tried to apologize saying I don't live in the area have never been there before and just walked in after a Doctors appointment because I didn't feel well. The guard and the owner/ manager continued to harass me and continiued to rant saying they caught me on video camera last week. Insanity!!! I will never ever set foot in that shop again and hope nobody experiences this. So glad I do not live anywhere near this awful store!

As a result, they occasionally have to order a prescription from a wholesaler, and it takes an extra day, so I have learned to renew perscriptions a day or two early. Aside from this, they are wonderful to deal with. Angelo, the pharmacist and manager, is a pleasure. He always answers questions quickly and with knowledge. He has trained his staff to do the same. They deliver even the smallest and most mundane orders. As a result, I don't understand why more people with insurance don't use independent pharmacies - their copay and pricing are much the same as the big, impersonal chains. Give them a try. I doubt that you will be disappointed.

They also have a large variety of health foods, including fresh produce, nuts, herbs, drinks, snacks, frozen items, pantry items, bathroom and hygiene, etc. There's also a small cafe where you can order juices and smoothies. It's a surprisingly large space that is filled to the brim, so it can be a bit overwhelming walking inside. The service was pretty friendly as well. The only drawback is that the items can be a bit pricier but I think it's still a nice spot for items you might not be able to find at other grocers.

I was excited about the turkey meatball bowl, but it was cold and btwn the pomegranate seeds and stale pistachios just presented too many hard bits. The lentils and rice were also a bit dried out as well. I also tried the kale salad and subbed for salmon amounting to $30. This salad is unfortunately nowhere near justifying that price. Not to mention the kale was not 'marinated' or even massaged for that matter (see pics) Given the minimal ingredient inclusions and tough nature of the roughage, it definitely needs some work. I love beets and were excited for them but they weren't remotely sweet, which was a bummer. The turkey sandwich included was not as the menu described and contained avocado, which was for the one guest who does not like avocado. Gentlemen who answered the phone was nice therefore and extra star

One bag of Nom Wah crystal shrimp dumplings are $27 in the frozen food section. I thought it was expensive but the dumplings looked so perfect I just had to try them. I steamed them at home and they are just as good as in a restaurant. Turns out Goldbelly sells Nom Wah dumplings 2 for $109!!!! So one for $27 is a bargain! You are paying for shipping at Goldbelly even if it's free shipping. What a difference in price when you can buy the dumplings at Fairway! Also, the nice guy at the seafood counter had some nice fresh live lobster for $16.99 a pound, which wasn't that bad for the middle of the winter. I bought one at it was sweeeeet!

I am writing this new review because I purchased an organic granola cereal for my kids, called…read more"Organic Golden Temple Supper Nutty Granola." It was bulk, I bought a pound, took it home and found it had no nuts at all. I went back, spoke to a member of staff near the where it is sold and was told "that's the way it comes." Really? (See the pictures: (1) cereal I brought home -actually, second and third pic; (2) returned and looked at the labels on the bulk transfer containers. Altogether I found just a few slivered nuts in this mix. You can see for yourself. I feel cheated on this misrepresentation. If this is labeled "super nutty granola" can I even count on it being organic? I have been going to Fairway since it was a single store on the west side, largely owned by the Glickmans, and before it was sold to Sterling Investment and finally to Wakefern -which owns Shoprite. That history is important because, although some of what was 'special' remains that Fairways had as a store, much has changed. This review attempts to be balanced, and I'd be interested in others' perspectives on it. That said, other food is fresh and especially food items with the 'Fairways' brand on them tend to be better priced than even regular supermarkets like Gristedes or Dagostino's (which, in fact, I have just learned is now owned by Gristedes -despite "Family owned since 1932" propaganda). What distinguishes them, however, is specialty, variety and quality. In some stores, but not all, they have real butchers who cut to order. Still, getting hold of one is difficult if you work (morning until, about, 5pm). The UES store is also very convenient -fast lines, open late, etc. The downside to someone like me, aside from cheap granola, is that prices are not nearly as good as they once were, compared to other supermarkets, and even other higher tier or 'gourmet' markets (depending on the items). It could very well be that the other markets have lowered their prices to compete and that the overall markup on foods is lower than before; in part this may be due to Fairways -but it means that Fairways no longer has a price lock on bargains. Even the quality of produce and cost are often no better than Agata & Valentina -please compare and check the prices for yourself. So the advantage of Fairway may now be limited to 'one-stop shopping.' I still travel west. But now it is only for Zabars, which remains a special NY institution.

My biggest issue is with the gentleman who works there . He is abrasive and it's such a fascinating juxtaposition to have a toxic presence be the face of a health food place.

Having said all this, I'm grateful to have the convenience of the market in the neighborhood, especially the bulk bins and fresh peanut butter. The aunties do a great job making homemade food and sandwiches.

I clearly asked for honey turkey and cheese with no mayo. They gave me no cheese, thick slices of turkey (not thinly sliced like | asked), and wilted old lettuce. How do you forget cheese on a sandwich? It wasn't even busy so there's really no excuse. The sandwich was terrible, and the service was worse. If you're thinking about eating here don't. Honestly, they don't know how to make sandwiches. stop selling them if you can't even get the basics right. Look somewhere else. You've been warned. Don't waste your time or money.Look how terrible this sandwich looks.

I'll be sure to go back and visit this location to try it. Also I love their little pop up nuts factory mascot out front. I think it's what made me officially want to check out what this location had.
