Worth the journey from Manhattan to come here to stock up on essentials. Can be totally cramped and disorganized, but when your options are as limited as they are in the city , take what you can get!

If you're expecting a quiet and peaceful place to shop in serenity, you're in the wrong Target location. Always packed with people with pretty long wait checkout lanes. Staff is friendly though.

Chris Ryan

Love Target. But it can be a stressful place in NYC due to the mass amount of people and long lines . Makes going to a suburban target feel like a dream though.

Brandon McNeil

Apparently you can't try jackets on in front of the mirrors. You have to use the fitting room. As per one of the oh-so-lovely sales associates.

eric bornemann

If you weren’t at the red carpet opening with circa 2002 finest NYC’s celebrities and a frozen margarita machine then I don’t want to know you.

Felicia Yesari

Guess all those comments paid off and Target Atlantic Ave has improved. Go on weekdays after 7pm. Like the fact that is open till midnight. All those negative comments: it is Taget not Takashimaya

Marc Mayer

A couple years ago, a kid threw a football at my head here. A few weeks ago, I stepped over what I hope was a chocolate bar smeared on the floor.

You know you can never leave this place w/just the list you came in with. Don't worry, we can fit all your bags in our cars so you don't have to take the subway.

???? new 3.1 Phillip Lim collab- some key pieces in xs & sm sizes still available like tuxedo pants , sequin dress , floral dress & floral sleep camisole set. Nice purses but many styles/colours sold out.

Elyse Estrada

They open at 8am on saturday. Come early, all the sizes are available, it's empty and staff is friendly ! That NEVER happens here!

Kimberly Agin

The shelves always seem empty/out-of-stock and its ungodly crowded all the time (no matter when you go).

Lucky Magazine

Randi Brookman-Harris, the woman with the sharpest interior design mind in town , swears that the side-ruched maternity tops from Target never stretch AND they look chic post-pregnancy. Get into it.

Felicia Yesari

Staff is very helpful. Store hhas a good variety of food, staples and basic clothing . GOOD sales and 5p off if you use your Target card.

Nate Folkert

good baby supply section with lots of diapers, baby food, cribs, strollers, onesies, and more

Ayin

This Targets an expansive collection of natural hair care, curly products!

D.J. Sullivan

I lose a piece of my soul every time I go here, but I do save some $ on bulk items . Use the red price checkers found throughout the store prices aren't always clearly marked.

Maureen Kelley

Go Mon-Wed before 5pm. They'll still be out of all the best lipstick and nail polish colors, but you'll be able to buy your toilet paper and potato chips in peace .

Matthew Hurst

Yes it gets crowded during the weekend, but visit this Target on a weeknight for less long lines and better inventory.

Stina P.

They sell quart mason jars here! They also let you purchase online before you arrive and pick up in store same day

zfamoso world

Go before 11a church crowd arrives on Sundays and before 11a during weekdays. Or just go to the Gateway or Flushing locations.

Kushal Dave

Go late on a weeknight (open till 11). You will be slightly less likely to want to die, and there are so many cheap things!

russ marshalek

chill out , it's a target in ny. yeah, it gets crowded on the weekends. cope or move.

Bitchy Bangs

Oh yeah, and make sure you know how to use your shopping cart as a battering ram. People love to just stand in the middle of the aisle with no courtesy at all. HIT THEM WITH THR CART MOVE THEM!!!

Eli Taylor

No matter what time you're there or how many check out lines are open, you'll spend the majority of your time waiting in a check out line .

M M

Utter defeat

Canineya Means-Castor

Always chaotic, especially on Saturdays and Sundays!

Lee Rader

just roll around in an ant hill , get beaten to death by toddlers with sticky hands, deny yourself what you need, and have the full experience without actually having to come to this hell-hole.

Lisa L

Don't go during the weekend. You'll regret it.

Quinton Silvers

If you're going here best time is first thing in the morning since most of the employees seem to be on their cell phones instead of assisting

Deon D

Sometimes it's just worth it to go further up Flatbush to the Junction.

Timothy Yuan

This is the Walmart of Targets — poorly organized , and checkout takes forever. On the other hand, the selection and prices are amazing.

Corbett Beder

I know this is tricky, but walking is when you put one foot in front of the other to move through space. Also, when operating a cart, it's helpful to be aware of the world around you.

Kendra Borowski

This is great Target if you like long lines and yelling. Oh and shitshows.

Danny Rodriguez

Sometimes the register closest to the mall escalator is dedicated for Target red card members and can be a fast check out.

Tristen S

This is quite possibly the shittiest Target on the entire eastern seaboard. It's never properly stocked EVER!!!!!

Erica Choi

Only Target in the city . Prices are so much better than your local Duane Reade or CVS. Kinda grimey, but worth the trip. Stock up!

Emily M

The customer service has vastly improved at this location. Also, in general I think it's impossible to spend less than a hundred bucks :)

C T

I agree with some of the tips here, however I hv nvr had a problem w/the employees. They have always been friendly to me...maybe some of you approach them with a stink "you are my servant" attitude.

Christine Be

This is what it looks like when you hire the laziest, cheapest, most inept staff possible. For an extra nickel they could probably get people above a 5th grade education to work the registers.

Jason Fry

Go early in the morning. Things are tolerable then. Granted, later in the day things get so cosmically fucked up that the result borders on performance art .

NYC Pride

Oh MAN do we love Target. Talk about a one-stop shop. And those Pride Pops they brought to 2011 NYC Pride Rally were DE-licious.

Bina Kijmedee

It was a nightmare to shop here toward the end of the day, but hey try to go there at the end of Black Friday. Unmatched experience! :)

bobble

came to pick up a pack of bottled water? stop right there! grab a couple of bobbles instead and save big: 1 bobble = 300 single serve water bottles!

Ryan Thomas

This place stinks, always out of food, staff never knows where anything is and when they finally get an express lane they replace it with a self check out lane, 30 mins extra for checking out

Candice Renee

Why I come here is beyond me! There is never anything out on the floor but merchandise is neatly placed over the wrong labels and prices! Associates take the chaos personally. Drive to Gateway!

Eugenie Harrison

Go early during the week, it's clean organized and there are plenty of SA to help and regs!

Jill Glaser

The experience of shopping here is the best interactive advertisement for birth control of all time.

Squire

If you've ever shopped at a Target elsewhere and thought the people shopping were idiots, just wait till you experience this Target. They bring it to an all new level.

Jose Garcia

My knees! Careful, the Men's room hand dryers are so damn low, it's as if they were made for a child's height!

Hannah Nicdao

This place converts into hell on the weekends.
