There's also a store called "Pop Up Newport" that sold some great smelling lotions and soaps, as well as Panera's which was a great place to stop for a cold drink and a break from the heat. I also love that there is a separate parking lot for shoppers and if you make a purchase anywhere in the mall, you can get your parking ticket validated and get the first hour for free. Otherwise, I think it was $4 for every half hour. We were there for about an hour and a half and paid $5 for parking, which wasn't too bad, considering what other places charge and that finding meters to park at can be challenging in the middle of the busy summer season!

Looks like a strip mall but the center portion is indoors. There are three entrances. Parking is…read moreshared amongst the many businesses here and was limited during oir visit. Anchor stores include Staples and Shaws grocery which are not accessible from inside the mall area. Entering the mall on the far right you will encounter a wide hall with a few benches, community bulletin boards and public restrooms. Walk to the end and turn left to enter the mall. Restrooms here need help. Ladies room door is stuck open, neither of the two stalls lock or provide privacy (gaps) and the hand dryer struggles. Definitely in need of attention for safety and privacy sake. They are clean. Entering the mall on the far left gives access to the gym and sporting goods store. Turn right to access the rest of the mall. Center entrance takes you by a long chocolatier shop displaying tasty treats for sale. Other shops inside include a book shop, Panera, science store and Paper store. It's a small area overall. Not one you'd stop in to 'walk the mall'. The shops we browsed are clean and well organized. Inside and outside shopping in this area covers a lot of your daily needs.

I've been coming to these outlets on and off for years, and I can honestly say it's pretty hit or…read moremiss. Sometimes I come here and find amazing deals, especially on last-season or clearance items, but other times the prices aren't really much better than what you'd find at a regular mall. Some stores definitely have great sales and outlet pricing, while others seem to be pretty close to their regular prices. That being said, I do feel like the outlets have improved over the years. They've upgraded the restaurant options, and there are definitely quite a few good choices now. I also like that they have a cute little activity/play area in the middle for kids, which is a nice addition if you're shopping with little ones. Overall, it's a nice place to shop, but I definitely recommend comparing prices because the deals can vary quite a bit from store to store and visit to visit.

I've always enjoyed exploring the Garden City Center, an open-air shopping center in Cranston, and…read moreI've seen signs for Garden City Center Farmers Market around. I had the opportunity to visit on Sunday, September 14th. Garden City Center's historic gazebo green transforms into a vibrant, open-air Farmers Market. The Farmers Market is every Sunday from May 18 through September 28 from 10 AM to 2 PM. I wandered and checked out the local vendors. There were a great variety of them. I purchased a really cute coaster from The Book Emporium RI. The Book Emporium RI sells books that are wrapped and you have a blind date with a book. I also purchased a lavender sachet from 15 Lavender Place. I spoke with the owner and she told me all of the lavender is lovingly home-grown and hand-harvested, ensuring the highest quality and care go into every product. There were soothing lavender eye pillows, relaxing neck wraps, sprays, and bundles of dried lavender. I also went to Fully Rooted to purchase two bottles of freshly pressed juices-Watermelon Slice and Golden Greens. There were also local food trucks, farm booths, and local makers. The Garden City Center Farmers Market is a market for everyone. Either if you just want to stop for coffee, get produce for the week, flowers, dog treats, see alpacas, and so much more.
