More information about the services on Peterson AFB for those of you with an upcoming Colorado Springs Military Relocation and current residents in the area of Peterson AFB Real Estate.
Today we look at Peterson's new BX and Commissary complex. It's a brand new building that opened in June of 2007 and has to be one of the nicest (and cleanest) BX/Commissaries I've ever been to.
As you can see in the picture below, the Commissary aisles are wide open and spacious. They also have one of the largest selections of food in the city...comparable to Albertson's and King Soopers (Colorado grocery store.) This includes a sushi station (prepared fresh daily, of course), a large selection of Natural Meats (no hormones added) and all the frozen foods you could ever ask for. Best of all, it's one of the few Commissaries in the entire Air Force that's open 7 days a week.

The Peterson BX is large for an Air Force Base and has lots of little restaurants and shops, including the regulars like the Barber Shop and Uniform Sales. Becoming a bit trendier than most other bases, it also sports a Starbucks. Here's a run down of the BX hours and shops.

As many friends and relatives as I have who have served in the Armed Forces, I've never actually been in a commissary! Thanks for the photos, sure looks like a nice place to shop.
Jaime, the relocation specialist for the Peterson AFB area. When we PCS I am always curious to know the size of the commissary and PX (in the Airfroce community BX). You have gone that extra mile by providing the hours of operation for the Petetson AFB commissary and BX. Keep up the great work and dedication at being the Peterson Airforce Base Real Estate Relocation Expert.
