A very, very, very tardy review for a mall that I have shopped for over 20 years. Lynnhaven Mall is…read morethe lone survivor and is thriving with over 95% occupancy. A few of my favorite stores are Dillards and Macey's'. With department stores dying these two do well. Another favorite is Apple which our family has purchased products from over the years. The overall appearance has changed over the years for the better and continues to be a draw for business who want to sign leases. If there is a negative it can be parking, but that's ok. That's the price of success. I will also say the lot is clean and secured. I will continue to be a regular shopper at Lynnhaven Mall.

Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so with that being said let's start!. Decent size mall, my wife and I just came here visit the Apple Store!. My only complaint is there is not enough parking spaces in this lot at the mall so on a Saturday afternoon be prepared to ride around for a while trying to find a spot, unless you get lucky and find someone coming out as you are passing by. Other than that, good luck to you!.

Lynnhaven Crossing is a strip shopping center facing the ring road around Lynnhaven Mall. Although…read moreit has a Lynnhaven Parkway address, it's not visible from the road. The only thing marketing the entrance is a sign, which is directly between the Wendy's & Red Lobster. So it can easily be missed if you are relying on the address alone. There is another entranceway at the opposite end of the shopping center, which is accessed from South Lynnhaven Road. The landmark to watch for is Smoke Shop. Turn there. Lynnhaven Crossing is not a shopping location for browsing. Instead there are businesses which you would specifically be visiting. Lynnhaven Crossing contains quite a variety of specialty shops. You'll find a nail salon, militarily recruiting office, Celtic Store, electronics repair center, alterations & shoe repair, a Jamaican Restaurant and more. Music & Arts is a great musical instrument, sheet music & instrument lessons shop. Catherine's is a woman's clothing store targeting a certain size range. The Bounce House is a children's play destination. But don't forget. It's not easy to spot from either entrance. It's more readily visible from the parking lot of Dillard's.

At Town Center of Virginia Beach I like to eat at the Cheesecake Factory! They have a wide variety…read moreof food to choose from on their menu. Of course, you have to pick what kind of Cheesecake you want to hsve for dessert, too! Their list of Cheesecakes is quite long and there is sure to be one that you will enjoy! An entire meal can be on the pricey side so be mindful of that. Highly recommend Cheesecake Factory if you are celebrating a special event! Also, when I go to the Cheesecake Factory I park in the Green Garage which is free!

I have frequented The Shops at Hilltop for well over a Decade. This shopping center has a few…read morebusinesses that I visit frequently and a few I visit occasionally. While I am sad and inconvenienced by Starbucks' departure, the shopping center offers plenty. CVS, Hallmark, and The Fresh Market are among my most frequent visits. Adele Diamond is the best jewelry store with amazing owners and fantastic staff. There are also a few restaurants and bakeries to enjoy. When I had a gym membership, I frequented the YMCA.

I'm a big fan of The Shoppes at Hilltop as evidenced by frequent visits each week. It's not new,…read morebut well kept with upscale stores. Sometimes there is confusion with other Hilltop stores at the intersection so keep in mind there is signage. The Shops at Hilltop are located on the Southeast corner off the intersection of Laskin and First Colonial. All the shops are collectively known as The Shoppes of Hilltop. However, the break it down by East and West. Customers have one access point off First Colonial and three off Laskin. If there is a drawback it's the bottleneck on the First Colonial side during rush. I have never had an issue with parking. The lot can be a bit hit or miss on debris. They do have a few security guards that patrol. I have never felt unsafe. The stores I frequent the most are Fruitive, Fresh Market, Bottlecraft, Bakers Crust, Cobalt Grille, Tino and Nectar. A few more in between as there are a lot of stores. My family enjoy the Shoppes at Hilltop and I would recommend working them in your rotation. Many are local businesses which is more reason.

It was a nostalgia trip. This had been my "go to" lunch spot for many years. I was surprised that…read morethe shopping center that had been thriving before Covid had empty store fronts. Whitner's Barbecue of Guy Fiori's Food Network "Diners, Dives & Drive Ins" fame must have been a Pandemic casualty. In its place is the well reviewed Alohahola. Snakes & Lattes appeared to be closed. Their Website indicates "temporarily closed for remodeling". But I saw no construction activity. Panera Bread is gone leaving an empty storefront. The large Rite Aid built on an out parcel is closed. It's sad since I remember when it was built, providing a walking distance drug store during the work day. Remaining are the familiar Mo's, ABC Store & Sushi/Hibachi buffet among others. Being one who doesn't like change my nostalgic trip wasn't a positive one. But there were many Pandemic casualties. So I shouldn't have been surprised.

Parkway Plaza is an older shopping strip, but it's also well maintained…read more Located off South Lynnhaven Parkway. The sign is large enough, but sits back. The strip is known for its barrel tile. If I'm using Parkway it's for an out business Chick Fil A that sits directly off the road. I'm usually there a few times a year, it's not my usual store. I'm not a fan of the small parking lot layout. Good strip that's clean and only hitch could be parking which is a bit limited.

How surprised I was when my GPS took me to this large shopping area for a specific restaurant. I…read morehad no idea that it existed. It's a winding, clean, up to date shopping area with a plethora of stores & eateries too numerous to list. Landstown Commons is beautifully landscaped and maintained. The restaurant I visited was in a cute area with a small one way around and back with a greenway & trees in the middle. It was very aesthetically pleasing. The selections of businesses in this area were mixed and varied, leading one to want to revisit & explore. What a change the Dam Neck, General Booth area has experienced in the almost 40 years since we were house hunting following our move from Atlanta. During that time there were almost no housing developments in the area. We looked at one under construction on the east side of General Booth. But there was absolutely no shopping centers or eateries. It felt as if we were in the country, in the midst of fields. Dam Neck & Plaza Trail had not been extended. Nimmo Parkway didn't exist. Who would want to live in an area with no amenities? But who could have envisioned what it would become. Now the area is teaming with shopping, restaurants & housing developments. After my first visit I think Landstown Commons must be the crown jewel of them all. Even though it's a long distance from my house, it will require another exploration visit. It was too near sundown on my first visit to stay. There may be similar areas. I see an exploration trip in my future.

This is the most convenient shopping center when I need to make a quick trip either on my lunch…read morebreak or after work. There is a great variety of eateries and stores that satisfies my need to window shop or spend money! The center has 2 entrances - 1 on Princess Anne Rd and 1 on Dam Neck, both with stoplights. The PA entrance can be a little hairy during the lunch hour or busy weekends, but isn't too bothersome. There are always those who don't want to abide by the unspoken rules of the 3-way stop and yield to incoming traffic. There is ample parking if you don't mind not parking directly in front of the store you are going to during busy hours. Several of the stores (Carter's, Ulta, Old Navy) have curbside pick up so you may see vehicles parked on the curb. I really like that I can hit Kohl's and the aforementioned stores on foot easily as they are on opposite sides of the parking lot from each other. Best Buy is also convenient along with several other boutique stores, Phoenix Salon Suites, IT stores, you name it. Most of the eateries (aside from BWW, IHOP, Ynot and Super Ninja) are on a separate roundabout near the Dam Neck entrance. This can get a little crazy at lunch hour too, so I always recommend parking behind the restaurants for easy-in/easy-out. The center is well-maintained and always looks clean. I notice the golf cart occasionally making the morning rounds before 8am to empty bins and pick up stray trash. So long as I'm working nearby, you can find me here on the regular!

This is a sadly a declining strip mall. Located to the North of Lynnhaven Mall it has more parking…read morethan tenants. The lot is well maintained and clean. I had the opportunity to visit just a few times ever. Once was Burger, Breaks & Shakes was there...it's gone with a lot of others. The main anchors would be considered Goodwill, Rainbow and Value City. Another store at the end with a lot of square feet has been a close out store for years. I think it was a Steinmart at one time. Sports Authority went out of business months ago. There is a smaller strip that runs parallel that has Philip Michael for Men, Tropical Smoothie and a few others. I visited the men's store Phillip Michael today. Overall a sad strip with many vacant stores that has little business. Retail as a whole is hurting and this is a prime example.

I like these shops! This spot has treated me well through the years…read more I love the Aldo's family-run restaurant here for a great meal. I've brought family and friends here, had date nights for my birthday or anniversaries or special occasions, and come here to carb-load before running weekends. There is a Nothing Bundt Cakes here and they have the best cakes I've ever had so I always stop to get these for special occasions and they're the only cakes I want for my birthday. There is a Chico's here which now also sells Soma Intimates from their sister brand. There is also a shop right beside Chico's which exclusively sells Lily Pulitzer clothing and has some seriously gorgeous and colorful and fun clothing inside. Some of the spots have changed on and off throughout the years: a coffee shop, bridal shops (this is where I got a stunning wedding dress for my 2015 wedding). Parking is easy, there is plenty, and it's always immaculate. This is a great spot with some nice, niche shops and Aldo's is one of my favorite local restaurants. Service is always excellent and food is top notch! The only issue is the access roads off Laskin, but they're working on those and hopefully all will be better in coming years.
