After all the eating adventures that we had all morning, we needed to take a break from food so hubby and I decided to make the rest of our Saturday into a shopping adventure at our favorite Long Island outlet located in Riverhead, NY (at the end of Long Island) but unlike other outlets, there are no tolls to pay and traffic is minor because there isn't a lot of other attractions in that part of L.I. It took us about an hour and a half to get here coming from Queens, which is a decent distance but much closer if we were coming from home. We have been here countless number of times in the past 10+ years because it is a good shopping go-to spot.
This outlet has 2 sections: Tanger 1 and Tanger 2, which has its own parking in both sections. You can walk back and forth to both sections without a problem based on your preference or drive if you're too lazy to walk. It has a bunch of stores depending on your style, taste and budget. Just to name some stores, which are our favorites: Nike, Under Armour, Ralph Lauren, Saks off 5th, Victoria's Secret, Abercrombie & Fitch, True Religion, Brooks Brothers, Lacoste, Calvin Klein, Armani Exchange, Lucky Brand, Ugg, Forever 21, H&M....and many more. There are over 200 stores and 10+ restaurants; one of the best outlet I've been to.
You can spend hours shopping here and I recommend going to the Tanger Shopper Services first upon arrival to get a free coupon book before starting your shopping adventure. The coupon book is free and all you have to do is show them the link/ code located in the Yelp app along with your ID. Sales are always a hit or miss but you have a huge selection and don't be disappointed if you don't find anything you like because you still get to spend a day shopping with your significant other (or with your kids, friends, loved ones)...what can be better than that? We will definitely be back again to do some more shopping over the summer.
