Great variety of shops, cafes, fresh foods, an Apple store (of course), great food court -where u can get the best duck laksa, and a relaxing out door area to hang, eat or just let the kids play in the water features or ship playground.

However, the issue I had with this place was actually working out how to get it. In fact, I ended up walking around the entire complex (though it actually isn't all that big) before I found the entrance. Still, it was a godsend when I needed it.

Lots of big stores here (Big W - similar to Target in the States, Coles and Woolworth - grocery…read moreshopping). There are quite a variety of foods here too ranging from sushi to fast foods. Service for all the places I went earlier were quite fast and the people were friendly. There are cafes on site too as well as places to grab desserts. Located next to Travelodge Newcastle is definitely worth to drop by there. The best inclusion to this "two sided" shopping district/center is Yogurtland. A plus when the weather gets overwhelming hot like what I've experienced so far. At the grocery stores/ supermarkets you can find cheaper goods like buy 5 for $6 and saves $2. If you are here on business/travel and you need quick meals or necessities, do drop by here as they sell almost everything here. And stop by clearance corners at some of the bigger store departments.

There's a few larger brands thrown in for good measure but it's easy to tell they've been carefully selected to compliment the local ranges. Located on the ever revived Hunter St Mall strip, it's easy to combine your morning coffee with a quick shop in Studio Melt. In fact, I'd highly recommend it!

The variety of stores is worth it though with a modern finish and wide walkways I have come to expect from an updated centre. The Coles and Woolworths are massive and I love the convenience of both stores should one be out of stock. The restaurant precinct has plenty to offer. TGI Friday's, Lee's Kitchen, Burger Urge and Oliver Brown to name the few I've tried with Hong Kong Chef and Kinn Thai on the list next. The adjoining cafeteria has just as much to please every taste bud. Parking has been my gripe in the past but I have started using a different spot on the roof top which has been great.
