Kings Food Markets Opened: 1977 Previous Tenants: Food Fair > Finast Location: 112 N Maple Ave, Ridgewood, NJ Photographed: December 2020 Today's store tour is one of the Kings that was not sold to ACME in the 2020 bankruptcy, and is expected to close by the end of this month. The 15,000 square foot store was built in the 1950s as a Food Fair, then taken over by Finast somewhere around 20 years later. Kings moved in to the store in 1977. The Kings competes with a Stop & Shop (built as a Grand Union) one block behind it, as well as a Whole Foods across town. The grand aisle features a cheese island on the left side (just out of frame on the left here), with produce taking up most of the space and a liquor department at the back. Customer service is tucked away in the front corner to the right here. Seafood and meat are on the back wall with dairy on both sides of aisle 5 and frozen on both sides of aisle 6. These are the last two aisles, and both are shortened for a deli
