Overview & Highlights

Welcome to the delightful world of Tops Restaurant & Bar Supply, a gem nestled in the heart of Brooklyn, NY. Located at 8001 3rd Ave, this local favorite stands tall as an essential stop for culinary enthusiasts, restaurant professionals, and even casual home cooks. With a dedicated phone line at +1 718-745-8175, the warm, knowledgeable staff is always ready to assist you in finding exactly what you need.

As a food reviewer for Menustic, I cannot help but marvel at the positive experiences shared by patrons of Tops. One customer, Rebecca White, praises the shop as “such an asset to the neighborhood,” a sentiment echoed by many who appreciate the community vibe and the support of local businesses. This is not just a store to purchase supplies—it's a space where connections are built and trust is fostered.

What sets Tops apart? Many customers, like Dimitrios Karousis, highlight the invaluable advantage of seeing products in person. Unlike online shopping, where sizing and quality can be misleading, Tops allows you to examine kitchenware and bar items firsthand. You can buy as little as one of an item to try it out before committing to larger purchases. It’s the personal touch and flexibility that make shopping here a pleasure.

The store boasts an impressive range of products—from essential kitchenware to specialized bar supplies. Even Felix attests to its charm for home users who appreciate high-quality materials at unbeatable prices. The receipt customization also adds a quirky, personal touch that reflects the store's unique character.

And for enthusiasts looking to up their culinary game, Tops hosts knife sharpening sessions every other Wednesday right next door at Kitchening—impressive service that further establishes it as a cornerstone in the culinary community. Joe Rockhead notes the “best selection & prices” as well as the staff's commitment to ensuring every customer leaves satisfied.

With rave reviews about incredible prices and friendly service—even for those who are not in the industry—Tops Restaurant & Bar Supply is not just another supply shop. It’s a cherished neighborhood institution where quality meets community spirit. Whether you’re a seasoned chef or a budding home cook, Tops promises a fulfilling shopping experience that invites you to explore, discover, and engage. Stop by and see what makes Tops a beloved destination for all your cooking and bar needs!

Great staff and products. Such an asset to the neighborhood.

This place is great, I have bought things from online stores for cheaper but a few times I had to send things back, and had to pay shipping and restocking fees! Not with Tops, you can first see what you are buying, (actual size) width, depth, etc. With Tops you can buy 1 of whatever you're looking for and try it out before making a huge purchase. They have a really cool, less comercial store next door for whatever gadget you might need for the house also. All in all supporting the local small business is always better.

Best selection & prices on everything I needed. Knowledgeable, helpful staff willing to "get it right". Knife sharpening every other Wednesday @Kitchening right next door.

Great place to get kitchenware and bar items, even if you’re just buying them for home use. The prices are great too, and I love the way they type up your receipt!

Incredible prices, friendly service even if you don't work in the bar or restaurant industry.

Great place I buy all My stuff here Dennis the owner very knowledgeable in the business and helpful and Maria and his staff are great pls support this local small Business!!!

Great local store for commercial and home kitchen supplies. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and helpful. I needed a bamboo steamer basket, and while they did not have it in stock, they ordered it and had it within a couple of days. They also offer knife sharpening services. Their prices are reasonable and, for the most part, the same as you would find online.

They have such a good selection & the addition of the Kitchening shop next door has made it even more fun to shop there. Very helpful & pleasant!
