Also parking by and entering through Primark was clutch and lets you out in a pretty central part of the mall. Food court also looks a tad different with a decent pizza spot and Korean corn dogs.

It feels like being in another world, a bygone era if you will. There's this great flea market place with tons of booths and random stuff to sort through, cards, games, movies, horror stuff, everything! Then right across the hall is a place with similar items, sports cards, games, movies etc. Otherwise the mall is pretty much dead. Hadn't been there in almost a year, went back and more of the stores that were open are now gone. Really needs to get some tenants as it's a cool little place with potential. Those flea market and card shops are awesome, everything else, not so much. If you aren't going for the couple stores I mentioned, I wouldn't bother going.

Its never busy, they keep it spotless and it's a great place to walk and do your laps :D Payless Shoes, Mandees, an Antique Store and Novelty shop... even a new comic store just opened. A big AC Moore is also at one end. Hopefully something useful can go into the old spot where Toys R Us just closed. Don't forget the amazing Agean Pizza! It's not the most happening mall... far from it... but there's useful shops and a clean, climate controlled place to walk and browse and shop. Don't dismiss it.

9.29.17. Mayfair Shopping Center Commack New York…read more I have always loved this little community shopping Center. Close to to home, it was a hang out and meeting spot back in the day. The giant rear parking lot here was just naturally a good place for all of us to chill. And was always good for a early morning Bun Run.. Mister Cheapo records and CDs Still Remains, so many of the original stores like Burlington gone to memory. I saw that the Italian place Chao has gone out of business, a shame I've enjoyed many wonderful meals there. Best Supermarket is now the Cornerstone Supermarket here and Brooklyn Pizza is still in the house. A busy local spot teeming with the Commack community's business activity. The Outback Steakhouse is one of the original Outbacks that I have been going for many years. Some of my best memories are in this Outback restaurant here. Verizon now has a free-standing building with the old gas station used to be the shopping center remains at the center of Commack's vibrant Community. I always enjoy visiting the Mayfair and shopping here whenever I am in the area. I can't help think of the memories and times that I've had here. Always looking forward to returning and very much recommended. JIM D.

Gateway Plaza (also called Shop Gateway Plaza) might be the largest power center in central Suffolk…read moreCounty. Located on the north Sunrise Highway Service Road (NY Route 27) between Nicholls Road (County Route 97) and Waverly Avenue (County Route 19), this shopping center is humungous and busy. It is so large and busy, that Gateway Boulevard which connects it from the Sunrise Highway Service Road at the South to Waverly Avenue at the northeast has two signalized intersections. The shopping complex consists of a phase 1 shopping center, phase 2 shopping center, a McDonald's, LA Fitness building, Home Depot Building, and pads. Gateway Boulevard also passes through the wooded Tuthills Creek Greenbelt before the Waverly Avenue entrance. Gateway Plaza features 38 shops and restaurants that include: Home Depot, Burlington, Best Buy, Michael's, Dicks, Ashley, Five Below, Marshall's, Game Stop, Bagel Lovers, Applebee's, Cold Stone, Nonna's Pizza, Verizon, and T-Mobile. It seems to have everything but a supermarket. I am very familiar with Gateway Plaza. I remember in the 1980s when it was forests and that a lot of the shopping activity took place at the older shopping centers at Sunrise and Waverly, Sun Vet Mall, and Downtown Patchogue. Then suddenly in the late 1980s when I remember George Harrison's "Got My Mind Set on You" being #1, Phase 1 of Gateway Plaza was built. This brought major big box stores that offered value such as Nobody Beats the Wiz, Service Merchandise, and Bob's Stores to the South Shore of central Suffolk County. From there memories were made. I remember buying Nintendo games and CDs from Nobody Beats The Wiz, eating pizza with my Dad and grandparents, enjoying a bagel breakfast at Bagel Lovers, and buying clothes at Bob Stores. In the early 1990s, it extended with phase 2, which brought in a King Kullen supermarket. Home Depot, McDonald's, would follow. After I moved out of New York, LA Fitness would go up as would a Burger King at the Waverly Avenue entrance. Here is my perspective of Gateway Plaza, taken from someone who had been very familiar with the Patchogue area since 1983. That is that this development was so big that it transformed the area from semi-rural to suburban. This could of easily been used in its natural state as a county park with the Tuthills Creek running through it. When I visit Gateway Plaza those memories of forests cannot be purchased at one of their stores. With that said, I do like Gateway Plaza. It has made life more convenient for people living on the South Shore. When deer and wildlife roamed on this acreage, it was necessary to have to drive to the Smith Haven Mall area to shop at some of these stores. The Smith Haven Mall, especially during Christmas season can be very hectic. Shopping at Gateway Plaza is relatively stress free. The shopping center is laid out well and there are the two traffic signals adding a layer of safety. Speaking of safety and convenience there is one flaw. That is the North Sunrise Highway Service Road entrance. Where there are two traffic signals inside the complex, there is a want for one exiting onto the service road. The flaw increases with the lack of an entrance from the South Service Road. The customer approaching from eastbound has to exit onto Waverly Avenue then turn north and left onto the westbound Service Road. Interestingly Gateway Plaza expanded when Sunrise Highway was expanding into an expressway. However, an overpass was never built. Recently, when I have returned to Long Island to see my Dad, I have been to Gateway Plaza a few times. There was one time when we went to the Verizon Store and one on October 20, 2024 when we went to Dick's Sporting Goods. All in all, I like Gateway Plaza. With the exception of a supermarket, I appreciate their selection and variety of stores and restaurants. Additionally I appreciate the low stress level of visiting and shopping in Gateway Plaza.
