I love the vast selection of shops and there are lots of parking spaces in the garage. The best…read morepart is the free parking. There are many restaurants in this huge shopping center so one can spend all day in this beautiful mall.

Many people will complain about how big it is and how hard it is to get around. I love it. The big…read morespace is annoying to travel around but on days where your goal is to relax and just go with the flow. I went there for a movie with my oldest friends and came out laughing with drinks in hand. Big shops and places you can make bookings are put in massively convenient places. I will admit that the toilets need some work, they smell like sewerage, but what public bathroom doesnt.

I love this location. It has great parking, the store itself is huge and everything is well laid…read moreout. I love the clothes here, very affordable. The baby, homewares and cosmetics sections are great.

A bit more up-market than the average suburban shopping centre, but given the area, that is not…read moresurprising. The major tenants are Woolworths and the recently opened David Jones, with lots of smaller specialty shops such as: Bakers Delight, Bed Bath & Table, kikki.k, Terry White Chemists, Feathers, The Athletes Foot, OPSM, to name a few. Plenty of underground car parking, though it can be tough to get a park at peak times. There is a hand car wash service if your car needs a shine while you shop. Lots of wide aisles and escalators make this a favorite for parents with pushers. There is free WiFi in the food court on the top level so you can add your Yelp reviews while having a coffee. And if the centre does not have what you want, the Glenferrie Road shopping strip is right outside.

Malvern Central is like a training course for prams and strollers…read more Usually filled with mummies and babies, it has a ton of parking and so I suppose it's a pretty easy option for most new parents to duck into the supermarket. The big anchor stores here are Woolworths and Target, with a few bedding, clothing and other fresh produce stores. They offer free wifi near the cafe areas, and there's a car wash service in the carpark.

Paid a visit to my old stomping ground today. I like the Well, its in a great location and I do…read morelike having a few shops centralised within the building. I used to do all my grocery shopping and this place has everything I needed with Coles, the butcher and fruit shop all on the same level. Upstairs has a few shops but I'd much rather be on Burke road, parricularly if I'm looking for a gift or knick knacks for the house. Parking is a bit of a pain (and the pain increases on weekends), however given the location you can always find a different area to park and just walk.

The Well is a shopping centre tucked behind the Camberwell Shopping Precinct on Burke Road. It is a…read moremultilevel complex filled with a range of banks, chain stores and other outlets, 33 stores in all. It lacks personality and appears at odds with the surrounding shops. It is not large enough to be a really draw card in a suburb nestled between both Chadstone and Doncaster. I imagine many locals would find it a useful place to do all the shopping in one hit, especially if it's raining and they don't want to wander up and down Burke Street. The ground level is home to a fresh food a large Coles, butchers, bakeries, greengrocer, deli, liquor store and juice and sushi points. The first level houses a cafe, Dymocks and a range of retailers and services. The top level is home to Geneses Fitness and JB Hifi. I drop by The Well if I'n in the area and need a particular store, however I would much rather browse the Burke Road shops with friends before a movie. I find the parking garage poky and really it's just another local shopping centre suffering from a bit of an identity crisis.

Just a heads up, everyone, there's an Ishka outlet store at the DFO in Cheltenham! Like any other…read moreIshka store, I always go in for the clothes and am surprised by how little of the store is given over to selling them. This is because it's actually a homewares, gift, and "look at my pretty things" store. I forget that. Lots of pretty things, lovely staff, and a huge selection of incense and scented oils. Probably better than in some city stores. The clothes selection is small, but unlike city stores it seems to be mostly dresses and tops made in different styles from the same fabric. Strange. For those of you who skip to the bottom of the review, I repeat: There is an Ishka Outlet Store! In Cheltenham!

Friends of Couture is definitely a friend of mine. In fact, this is one of my favourite places to…read moreshop. From great quality cardigans that won't lose their shape, to quirky dresses to fashion-forward tops and bottoms with the cutest prints. This is one store that doesn't shy away from prints. In fact, Friends of Couture seems to thrive on prints. If you're serious about dots, stripes, hearts, bows, checks, horses, owls, bears, moose, deer and cats, you'll love the stuff here. If you hate these prints - go elsewhere! Serious, monochromatic-addicts will hate it here. I love the quirky patterns, vintage inspired buys and spin-offs on classic prints that this shop does so well. Plus, it carries a good selection of handbags and accessories to complete your outfit with. Always make sure to check the back racks for sale products. Very often you'll find that perfect dress, scarf or cardi just waiting to be brought home by you.
