I am relying on this place more and more for big items like detergents and food. Stock up on cereals and household items .

Harlem Ambassador

Like Macy's at the mall . It doesn't matter what is selling here. The bottom line is that it sells. Food. Jewelry . Furnishings. Electronics . So buy in bulk, with your $50 member card. $1 hotdogs ? yay!

Constantino Diaz-Duran

7:00ish on weeknights is the best time to come. And, really, you don't have to buy a year's worth of stuff at a time. I come once a week, sometimes just to get milk--50% cheaper than anywhere else.

Nikki Beauchamp

Drive and park on the street (unlike other Costco stores parking here is paid). or also take the M15 bus to shop. Additionally a rotating selection of designer handbags and wallets

The earlier you go the easier the cart navigation around the masses of glutinous people who stop in the middle of every aisle for every free sample of food & have no cart etiquette.

Patrick Rich

Beautiful and this is Lisa and Moppy's closest Costco location and Lisa and Moppy are Corduroy The Bear's parents.

Lydia VanWormer

Great place to stock up on organic meat & fresh produce , but cashiers are turbo speed. Watch your items as they ring up!! Twice I've been double charged. They voided the double, but I had to notice!!

Almando Perez

I love this one because it is in the city so I am always over here. Everything is good. The Kirkland brand is surprisingly good!!!

Laura G.

If you go on the weekend, be prepared for huge crowds, and people hawkishly hovering around the free samples , clogging the aisles even more. That said, the prices are great, and I'll still go back.

Ale

Love this place! Try the chocolate little bites, you might end up addicted like me!!!

Charles Smith

The best way to have a small footprint [smallest in NYC area] Costco. There are a number of things they will not stock here: this is the Costco to visit for the basics.

Compass

The buy-in-bulk wholesale club is a destination for both local families and Madison Avenue shoppers looking to stock up on household supplies.

Sebastian

You can come just for the food court if you want, don't be shy! (Remember to bring your membership card).

Mike Thomas

Weekdays early afternoon best time to shop not too crowded

Almando Perez

Fruits and vegetables , I like their selection. Also, can't forget their meats and fish selection .

David Rodriguez

I was able to get a good quality folding table for the outdoors, plus some 1/3 pounders for the BBQ this past weekend

I am a big fan of Costco... Love it alot.. This location in Harlem, you have to pay for parking ... Try parking on the street... You can take the 6 train to 116th street & be prepared to walk about 5-6

Ray Sussman

Check out the Noga Dairy Road Show! They have delicious mango , guanabana, strawberry and piña colada low fat yogurt smoothies !

Nikki Beauchamp

If you buy more than you can carry and have no hands free to even Uber there's a car service , reasonably priced.

Richard Dinh

Eat a cheap hot dog at the food court before shopping. You'll buy less food and spend less if you are full

Akilah Skerrette-Banister

It's so cool having a Costco nearby. Great deals on meats is a definite plus and fruits . They even have organic meats for us health conscious Manhanittes. What was I thinking before. C-town...Fail!!!

Victor

Go to the food court and get a hot dog and a fountain drink for only 1.50$ !

Town and Country Magazine

"Everyone knows that Costco is the best-kept secret of the thrifty hostess ." As seen in Town & Country , April, 2012, page 87

Sophia Del Cid

This store is clean and organized . Love shopping here.

Nabeel

End your trip with a giant hot dog and drink (free refills) for $1.50. Well worth it!

Brianna R.

Don't need the coupons at this location, they already have the codes at the register for both instant savings and the ones you need to clip!!!

The Negotiation Institute (TNI)

You don't need to be a master negotiator to make out like a bandit at Costco. Their return/refund policy makes us wonder how they even make any money.

Jeff Solomon

Buy a 20 oz soda as soon and you get there for only 64 cents! Then get the free refill on the way out

Alex Lawrence

This is the real Recession Special: a big hotdog and drink for $1.50... greys papaya , eat your heart out!

Tanesha Fields

If you need an eye exam see the dr here (Steven Friesland) he's great! Best exam I've had in the city

Kecia Stewart.

Nice breeze while waiting to get in.

Patrick Rich

And I will use this Costco location in the new Corduroy The Bear episodes I am writing and producing at Nelvana.

Pete Webb

Best Bargains in the City --- Try the gourmet pizza

Isaac Rodriguez

Live the value you get buying meats, just sucks that you must pay for parking at this location.

Anuj Goyal

Except long lines even on weekday, its great place to buy stuff for your house...

Vicario Brensley Phillip

Eat a large meal before you go to Costco :-)

Monster Savings

Costco's great and we love to spread the savings across NYC! If you'd like it delivered to your NYC home or office , order from Monster Savings! Read more

Noel C.

Huge and excellent!!!

Samantha Fonger

The guy who drives the Nissan Quest likes to hit people with his car. Then when groups of people yell at him for doing it. He yells at the person he hit.

Matthew North

The torta sandwich bread , toasted in a panini press is to die for.

Wipe Out Germs

Pick up all of your cleaning supplies here! Disinfecting surfaces in your home with a chlorine bleach solution will keep away infection!

Ylkär Aghayeva

Remember to go there by car! ????

René Smith

Don't forget the best cuts of filet mignon

Virginie Liao

Lots of samples to try from

Silky Waves5

Always get good service & big bang for your $$$$ here

Philip Harper

Want a free lunch go here on the weekend and enjoy all the free samples !

Gingere La

optometry accepts VSP. good section of eye glasses. Affordable.

Silky Waves5

Lines surprisingly short here today. Great staff here. Get things moving.

Jose Diaz

The stingy old ladies and kids will beat you to any of the hot samples. Plus they take 3 at a time. Don't even bother.

Tash Concepcion

Go early to avoid the mad rush.
