SKYLINE FOOD CENTER

The SKYLINE FOOD CENTER in Washington Heights keeps the neighborhood supplied with more than just basics. Stocked shelves meet daily deliveries of fresh greens, ripe bananas, and other highlights they rotate in fast. Walk in for a few ripe avocados or come back with a full bag of sharp cheddar and ripe tomatoes on sale. They treat every aisle like an edit session—keeping the choices tight while letting the produce steal the show. You’ll find the place down Frederick Douglass Boulevard at the corner of 2726, not far from the subway stairs. Talk to the staff or just grab a basket; either way, dial (646) 454-1810 for a quick check on in-stock items. When you need to plot the route, pull up their map.
