Crown Heights master thread

Anywhere to rent a car menorah?

I know someone selling one for a discounted rate.
Does that help?

I don't know about other locations, but saying the service at Patis in Crown Heights is subpar would be quite generous to them!

Almost half an hour wait (place not crowded) for a Caprese Pressed sandwich (which was a total disappointment, it was SWEET for crying out loud, as if it was on Mezonos bread, but that's a different story). Also, menu had the sandwich at $16.95, but it rang up as $17.95. If not for the wait I might have not noticed. Many items on the menu are not available (not to mention that the menu is only available at the register).

My bottom line: Patis is only worth it (with 50% gift cards) for things that don't require prep.

@Dan @jj1000 I don't know if you have a contact there to share this feedback with, but if you do, I encourage you to do so.

It’s notable that the first iteration of Patis in CH was also considered subpar to the point that the Patis relationship ended.

It's a franchise?

Empire kosher now has 6 chicken legs in a family pack instead of 10. I guess they got #marketplaced.

I’m not sure. But the location remained open as a cafe without the Patis branding/products.

What's with this windshield advertising... All it does is create more trash in the streets and pretty sure no one will buy a set of rambam because they found a piece of paper in the windshield.

Not sure what you mean by #marketplaced, but isn't it charged by weight?? You can always ask in the back for them to make a larger/smaller pack

Marketplace family pack is only 6 pieces.

You're right, however i only  get to the store once the back is closed.

Isn’t it a better thing if you’re getting family pack pricing (50 cents to $1 less per pound?) without having to buy as much product?

Exactly.

Demographics? I would think that larger and older families shop more at EK vs Marketplace, except if it's a matter of location.

I agree, however those who have bought a 10 pack now are buying 2 6 packs...

Their pricing seems to fluctuate weirdly, and both their Kingston and Sterling Place and their East NY locations have closed.

So where are they located?

Empire and Kingston. ( The location where  Shemtov used to sell his kappottas).

Its interesting to see that when ordering from Carbon or Prime Ave, using uber eats, they give a BOGO for a few dishes. Although uber eats is a bit more expensive, you may be targeted for additional discounts.

I made a order from Carbon and had a $10 off $20 on my account which made the fees/delivery almost free.
