Ripe has no sign out front.  You CAN get lost! Its a red brick corner building with large glass windows that looks like no-one's home. s and a high brown fence around the corner.

​

Ripe is located on Sandford Boulevard at the corner of 11th Avenue in Mount Vernon. It is EXACTLY 1.1 miles West of the Target/Best Buy mall, and 7 blocks East of Baychester Avenue in the Bronx.

 

***FYI***Sandford Boulevard changes to "Pitman Avenue" when crossing the Bronx border, and 11th Avenue changes to "Mundy Lane". 

 

There is street parking up until 2am. If you got caught up in the bar scene, tell him or her that you gotta move the car before trying to seal the deal

 

Do not leave your car overnight on Sandford boulevard.  It will be ticketed.
