Caesar’s Bay Bazaar

I have been coming here since I was little and have seen it through almost all of its changes, from back when they had a K-​Mart here instead of Kohl’s. Since then, there has been many new addition to this outdoor mall.
I only come here to go to Modell’s, Best Buy, or TD Bank. Aside from these places that I frequent, the bazaar is also home to a Kohl’s, Toys R Us, Baby R Us, an eye wear store, a pizzeria, Wendy’s, Five Guys, the Vitamin Shoppe, Starbucks and there is a location that is off to the side of Best Buy that is always opening and closing to reveal something new. The corner location usually open and closes to open another 99 cents type of shop.
This place is a parking lot with stores surrounding the edge. Walking through it can be dangerous at times because they do not have walking lanes so be careful when walking through the lot to get to the store of your choice.
You might just waste a whole day here if you go to every single store.

The stores here are open early and close late — which is convienent for everyone. They offer stores like Kohls, Best Buy, Modells, Toys R Us, etc. Hungry? Caesars Bay also offers food selections like pizza, Wendy’s, Five Guys Burgers, and even Starbucks. If you need the cash for all this, withdraw your money at TD Bank. Everything here is convienent and accessible!

Someone needs to re-​paint the parking/​stop lines. It is spacious but people are unaware of where to stop or park or where to drive (thats a lie… they dont give a hoot). Its a good place to waste some time but something really needs to be done about those teenagers who follow you to your car just ask for «donations for the basketball team.» Becareful driving because even those patrol cars will drive at a diagonal just to look busy. They should play «gin and juice» (actually any 90’s rap aong will do) while driving so that way ill know they are driving and making their rounds. The stores are a different story but they added something to the area to keep people shopping: starbucks.

I mostly come here for Wendy’s, Kohls, and Toys R Us only because of the convenience of the location. I find that the stores are always overcrowded on weekends and they don’t have many items in stock. It’s extremely hard to find items in Kohls because of the disorganized clothes from all the rummaging customers. It’s also difficult to find items in Toys R Us, as the store is extremely disorganized despite the huge number of workers here. However, I will continue to come here because it’s so convenient. There is a good view of the Verrazano bridge at night if you keep waking down the pier, but don’t park your car in the Ceasar Bay parking lot… it will get towed.

When I lived in Brooklyn I though this area of department stores were pretty convent… and theres so much to do.,. but not anymore… as the years passes the area is extremely run Down… The streets are always dirty… It makes the area look unclean and not safe…
If you change nothing… nothing will change… same local stores just haven’t really upgrade the area…
The department stores Iv been to in this area are kohl’s…models and best buy… lots of people come to this area during the weekends… Try to avoid the crowd !

This area would be getting more crowded because Bj wholes food is moving here. This area is big but only a few stores like best buy, baby’s r us, party city, wendys, and further down there is a Benz dealership and also a New York sports club gym. Large parking area.

Caesars Bay has been in existence for a long long time. The cornerstones of the shopping area now consists of a Best Buy, Kohls, Toys R Us, Babies R Us and Modells. I’ve actually stepped into all of these stores, with Best Buy and Modells being the most frequent. The Best Buy is very big and I’ve never had a problem with finding what I need here. I’ve even ordered a few items online before and picked it up here. The Modells is also a decent size and has everything I’ve found at other Modells stores. The fitting room is a bit shabby as it’s just 1 fitting room and actually is not that private being in the front of the store. The stores are what they are as I’ve never had any problems with the sales people, but as with many of these stores they could probably be a bit more helpful or nicer at times.

OMG! My boyfriend and I went back to school shopping for our boys. Our first time at Khols. I always wanted to go there. We always see the mini mall when driving on the belt pkwy. When step inside the store I was impressed the store is well kept and neat it’s pretty spacious they carry brands like Chaps, Laura Conrad, Jennifer Lopez, Vera Wang, Levis, etc. When we went to check out at the register the computer was acting up so the cashier gave us 50 percent off each item! Our total saving was $ 449.72 Can you believe it!!!

Usual shopping at Kohls is great, learned how to drive here! That’s probably the most memorable experience I have here. lol

Louis P summed up what this shopping center used to be. My family shopped at Waldbaums before it became best buy… Babies R Us was Kids R us and back when you had to get a ticket and went to the back area of toys r us to pick up expensive items (also before that video game section existed). I got my frisbees from Roy Rogers and many toys as a kid from Caesars Bay Bazaar. (which became a K Mart and then Kohl’s).
In the present day, best buy is pretty decent as long as you know what you want. Believe me if you know more than them when you walk in, you’re a step ahead already. Kohl’s never fails me in getting clothes I need and love even if the people online are sometimes cheap bastard that hold things up since they want something for nothing.
Babies R Us is great if you’re a hasidic with 15 million kids. Toys R Us is what it is. Modells I won’t even get into.
D’Amore has kick ass pizza… I lived on that stuff when I worked in the area.
Parking is terrible on Sundays and at night you get the usual hot shot jerks with their douched up lite brite wheeled cars racing around the lot. I’m not sure why this is cool. The belt parkway bike path/​walking path is nice during the day or a summer weekend night. I just wouldn’t go too far. Word is there’s zombie hobos under the bridge.

I am informed that back when Ceasar’s Bay was really a bazaar, it was a really fun place to come hang out for an afternoon. Apparently it used to have lots of fun little unique shops, video arcades, etc. Those days are gone.
We stopped by to try to use our Kohl’s gift card (and, for a second time, found nothing we really wanted in the entirety of Kohl’s — although this location seems a bit nicer than the one on Staten Island.)
We also went to Best Buy, which is just as uncomfortably HOT as the one on Broadway. Turn down the heat, Best Buy! And while you’re at it, offer some good buys! I spent some time looking at some very lovely appliances that were so expensive that I probably wouldn’t buy them even if I won the MegaMillions.
I have to admit, I did just buy my new computer hard drive at Best Buy, though. It wasn’t the best deal, but I needed it fast (had a crash), and they offer a good warranty.
Overall, though, this is really a particularly boring shopping plaza.
P. S. — It’ really is spelled «Ceasar’s» not «Caesar’s.» Weird, but true.

I come here for the Best Buy and occasionally Modells and Khols. It’s a pretty decent place to shop at. Parking is easy since there’s so much space. Getting some grub is also just as easy. They have a pizza shop near Modells and Wendy’s is just at the edge of where the strip starts. It’s near the bay so it smells a bit here sometimes but other than that, it’s alright. Nothing too fancy.

Always loved coming to this area to shop or just hang out.
Way back in the day when this place was Ceasar’s Bay Bazaar it was very different. Back then there was an NBO, Chuck E Cheese, an arcade, Roy Rogers, a Waldbaums supermarket and an indoor marketplace where people could sell items in small to medium-​sized pop up stores.
I used to go there to get my Karl Kani and Guess clothes and to buy baseball cards!
Things are very different now, with Best Buy taking over for Waldbaums, Wendy’s for Roy Rogers, Kohl’s taking over the marketplace and Modells’ expanding and putting the arcade out of business.
Toys and Kids R Us are still around along with Pizza D’Amore and Pearl Vision and two banks (Drive thru TD Bank and an HSBC) by the Wendy’s.
It’s the closest thing you can get to a strip mall or shopping center in the area unless you drive to Kings Plaza. Ceasar’s Bay Shopping Center serves it’s purpose and it’s a good place to go shopping when you can’t travel too far.
Be warned that the traffic around the area during rush hours can be hectic and you should never park in the lot and leave to go anywhere else (like by the water!). Tow trucks will be waiting for you to do this and they will not hesitate to take your car away as soon as you are off the premesis!
Also, if you can’t find parking in the lot be warned that you can’t park «nose in» at the muni-​meters just outside the lot or you will get a ticket!
And as Stephanie F says in her review, the guys who hang out here at night and race their cars are fun to watch! When they are not doing their thing it’s also a decent place later at night to teach someone how to drive!

They have Best Buy, Modells, Kohls, and a Toys R Us. There is also a pizza place, a bank and a Wendys.
It’s one of the few Best Buys in Brooklyn, so it is ALWAYS packed here. The parking lot is huge and can easily accommodate the traffic. But I don’t come here to shop. No, I come here at night to watch the car people do their stuff. They drift, they race… it’s like watching Fast and the Furious live!
It’s also a nice place to just park, and walk along the water. But if you’re here at night, be wary of all the rats. It is infested with rats right near the field and tennis area. They come out at night in the dozens.
