Grand Bazaar Market is the finest, oldest and very best market in NYC for all things vintage as well as arts and crafts! Run by wonderful people and very well organized. A must go to spot for collectors, designers, or just those looking to add something special to their lives. From art to clothing to collectibles. The best! If you're into men's vintage clothing make sure to find Ivy League Vintage

The Grand Bazaar in New York offers a refreshing escape from the hustle of downtown Manhattan. This vibrant flea market features a mix of old and new products, from vintage treasures to modern finds. The highlight, however, is the collection of hand-crafted goods, showcasing the talents of local artisans. It’s the perfect spot to explore unique items in a laid-back atmosphere.

This was a cool experience, but not as big as I expected. The theme of the day was supposed to be Home Decor & Accessories but I found the selection to be just a variety of standard trinkets, clothes, & food! The highlight was many artists and their handmade works.

My absolute favorite antique market in NY. It’s small and manageable, always has new stalls but you can also count on some faves to show up consistently. Just have one pic but I’ve been easily around 30 times, if you live in the UWS, it’s the perfect Sunday activity!!!!

This was a cool experience, so many vendors! I’ll say this is more clothes focused than expected, but nonetheless a lot of variety of trinkets, small home decor, food!

Grand Bazaar is a great spot to look at and buy local artist work. Great street food, ceramics, vintage clothes, vinyl, charms, and art are all displayed under carps. Bazaar is such a fun environment, and you can spend hours admiring the local art and talking to the artists and vendors. I bought some flavored pickles and a lovely vintage jacket. I loved this experience and recommend it to anyone near the upper west side looking for a fun activity.

This was a fun treasure hunt, and felt very New York to a couple of visitors! My sister and I went for our Sunday activity and left with vintage jewelry, some cold weather accessories, and boots for her. We had done a great job not spending money until we hit the Bazaar! I would definitely go back. We went in January, so bundle up, about half is outside. There are no restrooms available, so factor that into your calculations. But there's jewelry, clothes, records, art, and food to explore, and you're sure to find a treasure.

A converted school yard on the upper west side near Central Park and the Museum of Natural History is the home for this flea. A playground full of vendor stalls that extends into the school building. We went there looking for some unique thank you gifts for those that helped us with the fur baby while out of town. There was clothing of all sorts and vintage. Records, watches, t-shirts, soaps. We didn't find anything that said "must take home" but it was a fun place to walk around and browse.

I really had the best time! So many different kinds of vendors ! I must say that my number would reason for going was to see a booth by "Really Bad Portraits " ... this fellow does a less than three minute portrait of you ! And I've seen his work online of people posing alone, posing with their dog, posing with their friend. And he really has a charming way of capturing the moment. I'm a big fan and I enjoyed my portrait very much. When I first arrived, there were six people waiting. The line moves pretty fast because he's really only taking a couple of minutes per person! They had clothing booths with original designs. They had resale clothing booths too. They had oodles of food booths, dumplings, they had curry , Japanese food and sooooo much more. They had beautiful handmade pottery by a lady names Atsuko! I wanted them all! Very beautiful original design! Perfect for gifts!! Everything was price so good. All the vendors were happy and all the customers were very happy. I can't wait to come back!! There was a spice vendor as soon as I walked in, and you could even sample the taste of the spices ! I saw za'atar there ($12 for a container)

On a cold Sunday we decided to go the Grand Bazaar to browse through the many vendors located inside and outside. It was very cold for the outdoor vendors, but there was a decent crowd of shoppers browsing antiques, vintage clothes, jewelry, vinyls, candles and many unique things. During the holidays and summer there are more vendors, but there were enough to make it worthwhile. Tip- there are no bathrooms and many of the vendors had signs they prefer cash.

This ended up being our most successful shopping destination on our recent trip to NY, buying jewelry and knickknacks from various vendors at reasonable prices. An fairly eclectic variety of things sold - antiques garage-sale style, original art/cartoons, body products, jewelry, etc. The neighborhood close by is also extremely walkable with lots of shops to drop by (Allbirds, Magnolia Bakery, etc).

My favorite place to find vintage clothes (especially vintage designer...and for good prices!!!). Found these pink Gucci slingback heels that I didn't buy and will regret until the day I die. But did buy a vintage Dior scarf that I looove. So many awesome booths with super talented and friendly artists. I would go every single weekend if I had the time.

This market was very fun to walk through - meeting local artisans, thrifted items and antiques. Aisle after aisle of treasures! Most of the market is outdoor- almost like a flea market! Produce, foods, antiques, art! I could've walked around for a full day.

Don't ever forget about this one! Years of great vendors, and it is free to go inside. No bathrooms though, so make a pitstop on the way. Lots of cool stuff this year, like an irl Etsy. Even the flea markety junk stuff is clean, with good finds.

I happened upon this lovely Nigerian lady selling here handmade Yara skincare beauty products at this bazaar. She very friendly & approachable. Yara, skincare products include Shea butter. I got the Lavender bc that's one of my best smells. I got the kit of whipped body lotion, shower lotion gel & Shea butter lotion. It's smells wonderful & it's sustainable very supple in skin. The purchases goes to a charity she's involved with towards hygienic feminine products for girls & women. Also teaching them proper use of these products w/ education. Some girls take a part in fulfilling orders as well. I recommend this product. Also stop by her station & buy her handmade products. www.Yara Shea butter.com

A mix of great vendors and not so great vendors, but probably something for everyone! It was a very cold day, and not crowded at all. We had plenty of time and space to browse and spent entirely too much money! But found some great vintage jewelry and Italian made leather goods. (No public restrooms so plan accordingly)

I actually enjoyed my time at the Grand Bazaar. I came for the food really and it didn't disappoint me!! They had a huge variety of cultures Chinese, Bbq, Latin, Indian, American, Korean, etc., and can't even comment on the ice cream vendors. It was a huge success for us!!! We had Mao's bao, tried samosas from Mysttik Masaala, chicken skewers from Maze-Maze, empanadas from Empanada Papa, fried ice cream from Sam's fried icecream. It was a feast and I was so in the moment that forgot to take pictures of all the awesome vendors!!! My recommendation to you is: Go, you'll find something you'll like and something you'll love and there's no entrance fee, which makes it so much better!!!! You won't regret visiting at least once, it's worth it!!!

Overpriced. No bathrooms around nearby. Selection is mostly chinese factory goods repackaged as small business. Poor service.

It's been a while since my last visit and I'm glad this place looks like pre-Covid. I was here this past Sunday and the flea market was packed. Plenty of food stalls for hungry stomachs and merchandise (including some weird accessories) for heavy wallets. I wouldn't really consider it a bazaar, though... when you've been to THE Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, you can't help but shrugging your shoulders pretty much everywhere else. However, it's still a cool flea market to stroll.

It's a bit toasty out here in New York City, but plenty to see and do, so excuses. The Grand Bazaar has been on my radar for quite a while. Stumbled upon it and decided today was the day. Strolling up and down the isles of tents, you'll find food, spices, clothing, jewelry and all kinds of trinkets. If you go inside the school where the bazaar is held, there's even more neat stuff to see and buy. It's a lot cooler, and there is seating. If you need something, anything, you'll probably find it here.

This place is so much fun and allows you to be outside and enjoy the sunshine or just be out! The vendors have a wide range of new, old, used and creative items for sale. You can buy glassware your grandmother had, new pillowcases for your couch, rugs, jewelry, mink coat, massage oil and even pickles! The food vendors are very unique. It's a great place to go and support our local community.

Mind you you may have to show up and get online before 10 o'clock so you can get a seat inside. It's small, but they Very efficient in using their space. The food is great. The services is great. I went there for Mother's Day.

Mostly vintage clothing and some. handmade or vintage jewelry. Next to the Haight in SF, this is nothing. But, it has an interesting selection of food. They had iced tea but no boba. They had veggie-based popsicles, but again not super creative. Kind of bummed.

Got there around 12pm and it was packed. Go there before 3pm to get awesome food. 4pm is a little late and the food stalls may close. Awesome food choices and a breathe of fresh air for the neighborhood diversity of cuisine. Loved the korean food, fried corn dogs, and deliciousness ramen.

I was in town for work and wanted to do some treasure hunting in my free time. What's a better place to do that than a flea market? NYC Grand Bazaar seemed to fit the bill from my search online, and staying at a hotel about a mile away, it made for the perfect Sunday morning stroll up the edge of Central Park. All the things I like sifting through were there: Old postcards, vintage clothes, vinyl, so many vintage Coach bags. The prices were more than I'm used to, but it is Manhattan, after all. One vendor stood out in particular. He has a site called NY shirt guy and screen prints some great witty regional and celebrity based tees. We spent too much money at his booth, ha! In addition to the flea market itself, there was an array of food vendors in the periphery. We got some delicious locally grown apples and cider on our way out and we were able to walk directly down Columbus Avenue for several blocks since they blocked them off for Open Streets. It was a lovely way to spend a Sunday. The treasures were priced a little high, but definitely go for the adventure and people watching anyhow. Maybe you'll even find something.

I only found out about the Grand Bazaar earlier this summer and finally got the chance to go this past weekend! It was super fun to walk around the different stalls (even though it was burning hot) and look at all of the different items. My sister and I had just eaten, so we skipped the food section. There were some nice looking options, though :) We spent at least an hour flipping through old postcards and posters, admiring colorful clothing (there were some ridiculously cute baby clothes), and scanning tables of trinkets. I got a little scissors charm for $2 and a chain for $4, and a woman at a jewelry stall was super helpful and removed a couple of inches of the chain for me for free! (She did it in 5 seconds tops, which was really impressive.) We also picked up a number of cute little ceramic animals for members of our family and ourselves. The things being sold outside were more to our liking and cheaper, but it was much cooler indoors and (important tip!) there was a water fountain inside around the corner (when you enter, go to the right--it is in that hallway.) The Grand Bazaar is a great place for wandering around when on the Upper West Side, and I'll probably come back if I need to pick up some small gifts!

Were it not for the presence of the Flea Market Flip crew - and my friend's enthusiastic reaction to their presence - I'd remember Grand Bazaar NYC as a sweltering blacktop dotted sparsely with vendor booths and a marginally less sweltering gymnasium filled with nothing I wanted, needed, or was much interested in. Several years ago I'd gone to something similar elsewhere in NYC and, within moments of entering, found and purchased a lucite bracelet with green scarab beetles embedded inside. I've been on the hunt ever since but here there was nothing worth hunting. A boatload of old jewelry, stuff that looked like it came from my long-gone grandma's house, food vendors about whom my friend said "no way am I eating anything that's made outside in 95 degree weather", and straight-up junk. The vendors outside offered more new stuff than the vendors inside but looking at their wares required standing in brutal heat and punishing sun. I couldn't. Which brings me to Flea Market Flip (HGTV), a show I'd never before heard of. It was being filmed out in that brutal sun and heat and I got filmed. I even had to sign two releases. My friend explained the concept of the show but I asked questions of its hosts regardless, while trying to make sense of it all and the furnishings they were hawking. Grand Bazaar is only as good as its vendors and on this visit? Not so good. Regardless, watch for me on a future episode of Flea Market Flip, an episode also featuring Gilbert Gottfried.

Woooo hooo I made it to the Grand Opening at the Grand Bazaar today on another hot day as summer is grasping tightly. When brings me here is of course Black Label Donuts...Richard, the creator was almost sold out on his donuts with Boston Buzz and Strawberry Rose Petal left. I got the Strawberry Rose Petal...fluffy donut with each bite of that delicious jam filling. I got to meet Mike C. (foodbaby) *highlight of my day* =) I walked around and check out the vendors inside the school. I was trying on these two aviators but I like the red-orange pair better than the green pair so I got a good deal on them 2 pairs for $5 instead of one pair for $3 #score I made my way back to Black Label Donuts and Nippon Cha's tent. I ordered a Yuzu Lemonde minus the Matcha since I can't in-take tea from Nippon Cha (Bayside, Queens #representyo) which was such a refreshing cold drink with slices of lemon sunken to the bottom of my cup =)

Had a really great time at the Grand Bazaar a few weekends ago. I have always seen it advertised so I convinced my friend to make the trip in with me. We had no real expectations going into it, just curiosity. There were many tents of people selling items that they've made from jewelry to clothing, soaps and essential oils, hairbands and scarves, they had it all. Mixed in with these vendors were some antiques, some junk, and some other interesting collections. We enjoyed walking through and making small talk with the vendors, all really pleasant people. I found a fantastic mirror that I plan to use for my wedding, while the frame is plastic, the vendor gave me a great deal on it and held onto it for me while I looked around. There were also other vendors with mirrors and furniture and rugs if those are items you're looking for. Overall, we had a great experience. Looking forward to taking others to the Grand Bazaar sometime soon!

We went to a grand opening of the Grand Bazaar NYC, weekly market located on the Upper West Side. The great thing about this market is that the profits from the market donates 100% of its net revenue to four neighborhood public schools, benefiting over 4,000 children by providing them with art enrichment programs, books, supplies, teaching assistants, sports and chess programs. So you can feel good about spending money here, since your money will be going towards the great cause! You can find some "antique" or something simply "old" (based on the customer judgement...), some creative handmade jewelry, arts, furniture, and of course, some yummy food. This market has both indoor and outdoor space, which is great for a rainy day or super hot/cold day. The value of the items goes from very affordable to a bit over-priced, as most of this type of bazaar or flea market type would offer. We bought some scones from The Hungry Gnome, which were AMAZING! We also bought Jumbo Lava Chocolate Chip Cookie from Bruffin, and German Butter Cake and Yona's Gourmet Delights. It was a fun visit, and will be sure to check back again!

I had forgotten I already came here last year, it was still cold out, and walking around I felt like I was tricked. Not much of a bazaar, or perhaps my definition of bazaar is incorrect. Today I went again, it was pretty quiet, A few nicer tents set up, handmade bags, some nice pillow covers, about 6 places to eat, arepas, banh mi, marmalade and empanadas. Really good empanada. Banh mi for 10$ There was a section with mirrors for sale and some furniture, you will need a pickup truck most likely A table with Buddhist items and questionably authentic items. There's an inside section with jewellery and some photo/pictures for sale It deserves a walk thru at least once if your interested.

We went to the Grand Opening of the Grand Bazaar. The weekend flea market is re-branding with this new name but it is great that the net profits go to the local schools in NYC. Located on Columbus between In the late afternoon, we were looking for some sweets and the Hungry Gnomes were ready with their scones. I would recommend any of their flavors from blueberry, cherry vanilla to chocolate chip. The Happy Gnomes baker was popular on one of those reality TV cooking shows so try it if they have some options. Scones were from $3.75 each or three for $10. The Grand Bazaar NYC has a wide selection of antiques and other flea market standard vendors. As you enter from 77th Street and Columbus corner, there are quite food vendors less than five to six on the day that we came. If you are in the area, I would recommend a wander around. Don't forget to make your way inside the building because there are more vendors inside. There was a lot of antique jewelry which is not interest. It is always fun to window shop a little bit albeit with out windows.

What better way to spend the weekend then attending a food fair? One of my favorite summer activities :) With a name such as "taste the world" my expectations were a bit different, I was expecting a lot more international exotic foods, as well as more vendors. Nevertheless I still had a great time. There was a good turnout of attendees, but not overly crowded and the lines went very quickly. The variety of ethnic foods was as follow: Indian, Spanish, Caribbean, Greek, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese. The highlight for me were the desserts. I really enjoyed the fresh Belgium chocolate mousse from chef Johan Halsberghe, it was so delicate, smooth and rich. I felt as if I was eating a fine dessert from a Michelin rated restaurant. I also very much enjoyed the Egg waffle with vanilla ice cream, Gai Dan Jai Wowfulls. I chose the vanilla rainbow color ice cream, with fruity pebbles and a drizzle of chocolate fudge. This was a fun treat to eat and very shareable. It was definitely a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon.

Mom and I have come here for years! On a recent trip we got to visit again and we couldn't believe how much it's grown! While the indoor section has remained the same (with a flea market feel) the outside has gained a lot. In the parking lot there is a mix of food and local artists. The artist sell everything from lawn decorations and wall art to jewelry and old glass bottle. The food? A few ice cream options, some Mexican, some Asian, some vegetarian/vegan, something for everyone! But just know that the lines for some of these place get pretty long!

I love this little market. It's fun to take a stroll down Columbus through the farmers market to taste little nibbles, grab some fresh fruit, and then gander at all the wares of the Bazaar. The pickle guy - one who has no name or labeling, is near the side entrance, has the best pickles. The most information I got out of him is that he is from New Jersey. The sweet horseradish pickles are the things of dreams, if you're into that sort of thing. My favorite little table at the Bazaar is Larry, who is located towards the front entrance, towards the middle of the lot. It's a rambly sort of table set up with things strewn everywhere haphazardly, but he always has the most affordable and fun stuff. Recently I bought an original Harpers Bazaar from the 1800s from him for $8! I also grabbed a weird mixmetal platter and some random Polaroid focus lenses for a few other dollars. Bargain city! Another great table that is a must visit is the glass bottle table. The couple climbs into dig spots around the city to unearth these vintage glass bottles. Every bottle has a story, and they remember the origins from every one. Some are more expensive than others, but they have some pretty little ones that would be perfect for your Instagram styling shoots. You know you're into that.

Still no reviews weeks in? I'd assumed the 'NYC Summer Ice Cream Blizzard' would attract Yelpers' attention, with "12 artisianl [typo theirs] ice cream vendors + 60 delicious flavors = BEST Ice Cream Bazzar! [typo theirs]" Who's coming: - ICE & VICE - Victory Garden NYC - melt Ice Cream Sandwiches - Jawea Frozen Desserts - Mochidoki - Lezzetli Mediterranean Ice Cream - The Paleo Factory - LifeIce - LizBeth's Dessert Boutique - Kingleche Cream - Enlightened - CitySticks But alas...we stopped by a couple weeks after for a good selection of the standard NYC overpriced flea stuff (and filming some show too) plus a handful of food vendors. At least Häagen-Dazs was giving out free ice cream, but not worth the trip unless it's strictly for the Bruffin's chocolate lava cookie (skip the rainbow sprinkle cookies) and/or the farmer's market on the opposite corner.

There are some antiques, but not much. Only a handful of the vendors had legit, beautiful stuff like small furniture, china, glassware, silver, paintings..but most of it was like every street fair with the jewelry, those crossbody purse/totes, cheaply made dresses. Watch out for Americana Memories because this guy is a total swindler. He proclaims his antique college pennants are a lot older than they are. One was for my school which changed its name in 1970s. He said "1950s" but it had the changed name? $250 for lies. He didn't get my $ that day LOL! GO TO THE FRIED KITCHEN TENT & EAT THE CLASSIC CHICKEN WITH CHEDDAR WAFFLE SANDWICH. DROOOOOOLTASTICALLY GOOD!!!

This was definitely one of the weirdest places I've ever been to. I went down to the Bazaar today to go to an ice cream festival with my girlfriend and a couple of her friends. The entire event was so disorganized and nothing like we thought it would be. It was advertised as an ice cream festival and when we got there, it was about 10 ice cream tents and the rest of it was a sketchy/creepy flea market. It wouldn't have been a problem about it being a flea market, but let me tell you, the people at these tents were very rude and clearly did not want to be there

I've never seen so many tables of junk for such high, expensive prices. There were so many tables of disorganized messes for trillions of dollars. Makes no sense! There were way too many fur jackets. I do have appreciation for the locals who did take the time to share their art and I wish there was much more of that instead. I won't return again.

The Grand Bazaar and I have ill fated meet ups. Last time I came, it was for Black Label doughnuts that never showed up until well after I had to split for work. This time I came to meet a few folks for the Famous Foods event. What is up with the vendors here? Didn't they learn in Business 101 that you show up to work on time? We baked, broiled and roasted in the sun because the many of the food vendors hadn't arrived or set up, so the Fire Department didn't approve the permit and allow them to open until 45 minutes to one hour later. Of course, the one vendor I really wanted to try, the Conch fritter and salad vendor, didn't show up until over 2 hours later! Pushing back work to come here only having to wait a long time does not a fun Sunday make for me. Even people in my group were late, with one person unable to find us because of a broken cell phone. So if you aren't afflicted with the Grand Bazaar curse like I am, you might find the whole shebang charming. It's a small flea market with a few food vendors on most Sundays. Those times, it seems quite empty. I suggest attending on the special events, if you want a lazy Sunday waiting, browsing and eating. On festivals like the Famous Foods event I attended, there'll be more food vendors and more people hawking antiques, hand made crafts and miscellaneous things that you might find if you cleaned out your hoarder relative's attic. The atmosphere then is like Smorgasburg, with more vendors selling small bites at higher prices. The Conch stand man apparently hauled up all the way from Florida so I forgave him(a bit) for being over two hours late. Still, didn't the man know island time isn't endearing to busy New Yorkers? The conch salad I had was divine though, spiced and flavored perfectly, the conch fresh and tender. The shrimp empanada I had was only meh, and the guy in my group saw the size of it and balked at buying one at $5, LOL. There were many dessert options, with cookie stands, chocolate mousse, and even the Twister Guys from the Queens Night Market. One lady was selling artisan ring dings. There are some gems, like the stand, Runamok .They sell unusual maple syrups, that taste wonderful, are bottled beautifully and are pricey. They make for a distinctive gift, or a good treat for yourself. I wasn't too interested in the flea market finds, and neither was the guy I was roaming the market with. Chalk it up to a new respect for Chinese superstitions and some residual fear of haunted objects after a few seasons of an old guilty pleasure, Supernatural(eye candy, eye candy). Some of the crafts were interesting and beautiful, but I've come to appreciate the boons of shopping in A. C. during hot summer days. I don't think the third time will be a charm and I'd visit the Grand Bazaar again. Too much waiting for too little reward. But if unlike me, you have Sundays off, and you like poking around old things, junk, and some peculiar things, then this could be the place for your weekend adventure.

Thought it would be way better but I guess Covid is still a thing lol. Pics online make this look like a huge outdoor experience but maybe 10 vendors were open. Eh. Not worth it.

I live next to the bazaar so I float through on a pretty regular basis just to pass time and it's a little underwhelming. If I had to guess, there are about 30-40 vendors on any given day and at least half of them are the same stalls you see at any nyc street fair. So you got your guy selling those hamper baskets, the guy selling those mass produced mask things, the table with ten thousand beads, the cell phone cover guy...you get the drift. This is all mass produced stuff you could buy on Amazon for a quarter the price. I was interested in getting a new hamper once and asked for pricing - $120 for a fake woven basket, but I could have it for $100. I found the exact same thing online for $24.99. I definitely feel like these guys sole purpose is to sell to shoppers who think they are actually getting something unique when it's basically Home Goods clearance. About a quarter are local crafters selling *extremely* expensive handmade goods (think $30 for a tiny candle or $100 for a little pillow). Nice stuff, but again, I'm not sure who's buying it. It's not *that* nice. I mean, if your not worried about spending or really want to support a local craftsman, I guess these guys are fine and the stuff does seem to be high quality. The remaining vendors are selling antiques or actually have something unique at fair prices. These guys are pretty reminiscent of a typical flea market and seem to do decent business, but there's so few of them that I don't think it makes the bazaar worth making a special trip for. There are certainly better markets around.

Went for national ice cream day on a July Sunday. Variety of local art vendors, smoothie/juice options and of course ice cream. Additional vendors inside, no air conditioning but an accessible water fountain.

There are a lot of great choices in Artisans here. There was a lot of jewelry second hand and brand new. There is a lot of clothing brand new ,handmade, store purchased second-hand some vintage concert shirts pretty much everything you could hope for as far as clothing and boots, shoes, vases, Oriental knick knacks... pretty much anything you can think of, you can find it here. Furniture, crafts, holistic remedies, wood work, straight up garbage ( like used dishes and pots and pans and old things that should be thrown away), but then right next to it is some extremely lovely artwork of stained glass or ceramic serving art that you hope you have enough money to buy. Haggling is common here and most of the vendors are happy to work with you.

One of the cities best! Items from all around the world, great food and quite educational! Even open during bad weather. Just pop inside for a whole new experience.

I went to the Food Truck event on Sunday, 3/25/2018. What a disorganized mess; I understand everybody and their grandmother loves food trucks in NYC but come on people. The line was wrapped around from Columbus Avenue almost to Amsterdam Avenue. I was meeting up with a few friends while I and one friend actually got on that line, the other 4 just skipped the line and walked right in without an issue. WTH??!!! There were 2 entrances/exits but "STAFF PERSONNEL" made everyone go into the Columbus Avenue entrance/exit, why??? Apparently if you printed out a ticket you STILL had to get on the line anyway. Many people didn't understand this and they tried to bypass everyone until they found what appeared to be "STAFF PERSONNEL" telling the poor souls this sad fact. Some promptly looked at the line and asked themselves was it worth it. It wasn't. Just go to the crowded Shake Shake across the street.... Anyway our "friends" who skipped didn't want to come back out for us (they said there were long lines for many of the trucks) so we decided to drop out the line and we headed north got some some food at UNO up on 81st, where it was warm, with desirable food & drinks. Our friends decided to leave as well without food. The whole scene was just mass confusion, older people & others driving by stopping mid-block to trying to find out what the heck the line was about. I understand this was about helping to raise $$ for the local school children but being that it was so damn disorganized I really have to wonder did those kids walking around with donation boxes (in the cold) really get all that much from people on the line or inside the venue. I will not come back to this event or anything else at this "Grand Bazaar". My money will be better spent at the Farmer's Market across Columbus Avenue. Meh!!!

I went on 7/15/18 and it was a disappointment. Long lines for food, some merchants didn't have correct change, and food ran out from one food stall just when I was about to get an order in. The prices were not much cheaper where sandwiches ranged from $10 and above. There were very little seats and it was hot. It was poorly designed where the food was set up right around the entrance so it got bottle necked around the entrance while people waited. I suggest go to the surrounding restaurants around that neighborhood for some air conditioning, a nice sit down, and stroll around for some dessert.

I loved it! There is something for everyone here. They have vintage clothes, crystals, amazing home decor. Seriously, if there's something you want, chances are you can find it here. They also have food vendors as well, which hello, I'm all for! The day I went, they had a kids theme to it, so there were a lot of tents geared towards kids. I plan to go back again this Sunday!

One great place for weekend getaway in the city. It's close to Central Park. I have been to a food festival organized here which had a wide variety of food stalls. I just loved this place. It kinda looks old but well organized bazaar. It's great when they have different fairs.
