Update 2024: I've been frequenting this shopping center for 20 years, and there has been more turnover since 2020 than previously. You can typically find what you need and have a guaranteed store to come back to. I'm hoping the new frozen yogurt place sticks. Nice Safeway, the butchers are great and pretty helpful. The fresh fruits and veggies are usually of good quality and plentiful. Sometimes, you can even buy herb plants. Vaccinations are available at the pharmacy with a private waiting area. They are usually quick and text about updated boosters and vaccines they have available. Dollar Tree used to be better but has definitely gone downhill. Petsmart is organized and offers good service. CVS and At&t store are good. The gas station has an auto shop that does good work at fair prices. Also has smaller Bath and Body works but great staff and selection. The new Peruvian chicken place is sooo good. The Wendy's offers a 50-piece nugget for like 15 bucks, but it's not on the menu. You have to ask. There are two shoe stores (sneakers) in the shopping center. I haven't been, but since the Footlocker in Beltway Plaza won't let you try on shoes, ...seems like I'll be trying them out soon. There's a pediatric urgent care and IHOP that does a decent burger in a pinch. The Chevys has been around for years and the food is always good and the staff are nice. They used to have a fun Cinco de Mayo party that had face painters and a DJ that I hope comes back soon. The drink specials were good and I've had more than a few great nights with friends there. The liquor store is small but has a surprising amount of options for its size. There is a music store but I haven't been inside. It's been there forever, though. There is one bank there currently with a credit union (Lafayette) coming soon. The beauty supply store is decent, but I've only shopped there a few times. Though the clippers they sold came in clutch during lockdown and are still chugging along. Solid purchase for 50/60 dollars. Overall, there's plenty of parking, and folks are pleasant. Outside of specialty items and clothing that isn't boutique or streetwear (Cici's and DTLR), you will probably be able to find what...
Read moreAlways a nice place to walk around and browse on a cool day. I wish there was more variety (plenty of different food places, but not really a ton of shopping options), and I wish the Gamestop hadn't left to be replaced by yet another food option, but otherwise, it's good if you need to get a walk in, want to window shop, or need a bite to eat at some pretty amazing restaurants.
I imagine price is a heavy factor, but I seriously wonder how any fast food places survives here given the intense upgrade in quality from the...
Read morePre-Covid this place was a nice shopping place for the community. However a few stores are gone and it has become very trashy mainly close to the Safeway and CVS areas. Due to lack of upkeep of the center is an eyesore. Smoothie King was one of the new additions that didn't last that long. It is also annoying to be barrage by people selling stuff outside stores and no I am not referring to the Girl Scouts. Maybe a place should be designated for people that want to sell/scam cause honestly a few I have passed...
