Had to quickly stop by to check out a 2 story Costco! What a great way to maximize on limited real estate! Why not build on top??? These escalators accommodated the full size Costco carts! 2 sets going up and down and an elevator! Fun! Friendly employees!
Costco Sunset Park is truly a love hate experience for me. The parking lot alone feels like a survival game, with people camping for spots, others ignoring the unspoken rules, cars getting towed, and a pretty high chance someone is honking or arguing. It doesn't get much calmer inside either. This location is two floors, so navigating between levels on a busy day can add to the chaos. Sometimes you even have to wait for a shopping cart by trailing someone to their car and politely asking if you can take theirs after they unload. It used to feel a little sweeter when the liquor store next door was still around before the pandemic, but even with all the chaos, I'm still grateful to have a Costco nearby. This spot caters to a big Asian crowd, so it's always fun seeing the rotating Asian snacks, sauces, and frozen goodies. I'm Costco obsessed in general, so I still get excited over the samples, seasonal deals, random clothing finds, and just wandering the aisles. I do wish their poultry and produce quality were better, but the savings are real. Their return policy is one of the best out there, which makes shopping here feel safe and worth it. The staff here is knowledgeable and helpful. They scan your membership at the door and again at checkout, and I've seen them turn non members away, better to just sign up. The Executive membership really does pay you back with rewards, it's worth the upgrade. Crowd control, though, is basically nonexistent, so expect gridlock on busy days from the entrance to checkout to the food court, especially when it's raining. Despite everything, I still keep coming back.
We usually shop here for rotisserie chicken, milk and bread. We shopped on Saturday for groceries and bought Rainier fruit Envy apples; they were crisp and delicious. We also bought Samlip soft cheese cake (Korean); they are light and sweet and yummy. We also bought Red's cilantro and chicken burritos as well as Red's breakfast burritos with chicken and sausage and egg. We love these burritos. The value and price are good. The service is good. We try to avoid the rush times so we're not sick waiting for a parking spot or long checkout lines. It wasn't bad this past Saturday.
I've been coming to this Costco for many years. Lately, it's been much more crowded, especially on Saturdays and Sundays. I recommend visiting on a weekday if you'd like to avoid the heavy crowds. Maybe a Tuesday or Wednesday. Compared to other Costco locations, the samples here are just okay, I've had better samples elsewhere and they have more samples. Here you can get about 4 samples during your visit. I've never had any problems shopping here or with the staff, everyone has always been helpful and efficient. And of course, I can never leave without stopping by the food court for the classic $1.50 hot dog combo and a slice of pizza.
Great store. Two floors of stuff. You can bring your cart up the escalator. Food is upstairs so shop downstairs first so you don't spoil your food wasting time shopping. Checkout was quick. Lots of open registers.
I've been to this Costco many times but today I am going to review my food court experience. I arrived to this Costco on a weekday around 2 pm. Parking was tough as usual at this time but will clear up by 3 pm. You need to wait but you will get one eventually. Going to the food court, I noticed some of the my favorite food items wasn't up to par. The pizza had a burnt cheese topping and extra thick on the crust on all the pies. The hot dog I ordered also no longer has the chewy bun; the airy soft bun broke apart as I was eating it. There was one new item on the menu... the combo calzone. A calzone with the filling that was on the old combo pizza pie for $6.99. Viewing it from the window, it looked dry and over baked but I bet it would be good with all the mentioned saucy filling; a bit expensive though. Maybe be next time!
Staffs were friendly. Located in Costco, you need a membership to get in, scan at the front entrance with two machines. Ordered their classic $1.50 hot dog special that comes with the refillable drink. Be careful some of the soda ended up as water and the relish station ran out. It was a good bite to have after shopping.
Not much to comment about service as there is just about none. The selection of food is small but it is really only to lure people in the door with the given price. As usual, there is a lot to buy but it is but in a large amount so the value is great if you can finish the amount you're buying. This Costco I would say is one of the worst ones selection wise and it is also super crowded with restaurant workers shopping huge amounts.
Reviewing the food court new items, but I usually visit this Costco location to pick up a few items when I'm local. The rush and lines here are out of this world as it's the only location in Brooklyn and is busy basically at all given times. If you really want to do a thorough haul, I would recommend going to other locations perhaps in Long Island or even New Jersey as they are larger and have more inventory, more outdoor equipment, even do car servicing. Anyways, for the food items I decided to try the new caramel brownie sundae and of course could not leave without their traditional hotdog. The sundae itself I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with how good it was! Now of course, I've had their ice cream before and many times during my life, but finally a new take on the traditional vanilla ice cream soft serve by adding the brownies that they bake in house and pairing it with a luscious caramel sauce was a perfect and heavenly combination. For $2.99 you can get a quite decent and large serving of ice cream and it was honestly so good I finished the entire cup myself. The brownies are so soft and not overwhelmingly sweet and add a good texture to the sundae, while the ice cream is so buttery and smooth. The hotdog as always a traditional staple, was excellent. I would definitely go back to indulge in the sundae one more time and hopefully they keep this on their menu forever!
Quality/Quantity - Okay selection, not that I would have bought a case of beer as I prefer to visit as many breweries as possible on this trip. My wife did not buy anything either. This is rare for us in Costco. Ambiance - Two floors, see pictures. Maze like. Not very easy in or out. Small parking lot. Service - Self service check out. As usual, Yelp's error as I see 8 of the same pictures got posted?!?! Actually, I see so many duplicate photos?!?! My question is what pictures did NOT get posted? Thanks for the self service price checker, not sure if I have seen one of these in your other Costcos. Price - Depends on what you buy, eat, or drink. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1996. Congrats on all your success since 1976, since Price Club. Now you are the 5th largest retailer in the world and #10 on the Fortune 500. 804 warehouses worldwide, with 558 in the US. 1980 - IPO. 1993 - Price Club and Costco merger. 1997 - Rebrand all locations to Costco. 2024 - 132 million members. read more

Costco.Com or in store is one of my family's favorites. Trouble is sometimes the quantity of good items is too much for me. We definitely get the deals on toilet paper and Kleenex! I'm a huge fan and I love the app. Costco does only take Visa. One of these days I'm going to get a Costco Credit Card. I have membership autopay annually. My daughter goes to the Costco store these days and uses my credit card for whatever we need. I'm a HUGE fan and definitely recommend of there's a store near you. read more

Whenever I'm in Brooklyn near Industry City, I'll try to stop by. Where else can you get a soda and a hotdog for $1.50? This place is massive, but I thought it was small at first. There's actually 2 stories! The place is a little chaotic, and I think it'd be nice if they did a better job restocking or labeling the aisles. Or that could be their strategy to have you wander around and buy stuff on the way. I'd find some interesting snack on a shelf by itself, but it was on the wrong area and a little crushed. Trying to find the original location for the mini crab snacks was a lost cause since it didn't appear in the Asian section or chips aisle. Lots of free samples of course. I'd probably have to get a car to take advantage of coming here often since everything is in bulk. They weren't too crazy about the check-in like some tiktoks with face ID, but they did block some people from entering without a card. Also, it's odd they have self checkout lines that are manned. I guess there's too many thieves. read more

I came here on a Sunday morning and it was super crowded! No space to park in the parking lot. I had to circle around multiple times. The line to checkout was crazy. I gave up on my shopping. I only bought its infamous $1.50 hotdog + soda as lunch and left. Also, the amount of recycling machines are three, too little!!! If you decide to come here, expect to go thru a lot of stress before coming out with your groceries read more

This place is a zoo. Rude customers. Rude staff. The selection is poor. As big as this place is, it don't carry items that other Costcos carry. Im in the freezer looking for eggs, an angry employee was yelling at the top of his lungs "it's no more eggs". Ordered three hotdogs to go, one was ice cold. How??? The soda machine was out of syrup, so most drinks was pushing out water. One terrible experience, probably take the drive and go elsewhere to another Costco. read more
The most crowded Costco I've ever been to. Especially on weekends, it's insane. From the moment you get to Costco, finding a parking spot, finding a cart, rolling the cart around Costco, waiting on a line to go down the escalator, waiting on line to check out. The lines are massive. It often spans a whole aisle and loops around twice. Try to avoid coming on a weekend if you can. There's a wide variety of stuff but I've never really seen any "manager specials" or any sales besides the advertised on the booklet. If you have time to browse, you'll come across lots of new items. The food court is small and just two staff manning the food court. The one who took my order is courteous and fast. There's also self check out lines also machines for ordering at the food court. Overall: it's the most accessible Costco in Brooklyn and has gotten way too crowded over the years. I try to avoid coming if I can. read more
My daughter has been bringing the Chicken Bake from Costco every time she visits. I found this item to be so delicious. She told me it's sold at a great price. I haven't gone to this location in a long time. I remember the last time I went, the service was great. read more

I love checking out Costcos in different cities. For me, it's fun to see the different types of regional foods that I can't find at my home warehouse. This Costco is especially busy because it is in Brooklyn but the staff do a great job of trying to maintain traffic flow. Here, your cart needs to be taken to a conveyor belt to get upstairs to the food area. Once upstairs, it was a little crazy trying to figure out the lay of the land amongst so many people but it didn't take too long. It was interesting to see things like a Kosher section and items like a "Cannoli Kit," the famous New York Black & White cookies, and a surprise Smoked Salmon Poke Bowl! The milk here is different, too! Singular gallons (I didn't see non-fat) instead of the two-pack we usually get. The milk container here is shaped differently, too - but it fits perfectly into a little side shelf in our AirBnB fridge, which I suspect was designed just for that purpose. Checking out was a breeze but taking an Uber home in all that traffic is another story. We'll try to get back here again while in town! read more

I have been coming to this Costco for years. I come here at leadt once a month. The staff is always helpful and quick. The place is big and very well organized. You can find items easily and everything is fully stocked. When going to pay st the registers they have someone guiding where customers should go. It works so quickly. We were assisted and finished in less than 2 minutes, they worked so fast. Its best to get there around 9:15 on a Saturday, as if you get there earlier you will have to wait in a line that wraps around. read more

Ask the Community - Costco Wholesale - Sunset Park
Does this location sell liquor?
Yes ! There is a separate liquor store next to the building
Could you go to the food court without membership?
Not really. The food court is between the checkout counters and the cart checkers. You would have to sneak past the latter to get to them.
Should I bring my own bags? Does this costco bag your items? Best options if I'm going by subway?
Bring your own bag! They don't provide any bags - only boxes. Most of their items are pretty bulky so good luck! There's cab service if you end up buying too much
