In fact there's not even a Marshall's (or a Homegoods) (or even a Ross Dress For Less). Marshall Square is basically a little college mall (mini mall, indoor thankfully considering the temps around here in winter which lasts half the year), with about seven or eight different stores in here, one of which is a far inferior version of the best place in town (Strong Hearts), and another is a sandwich chain that I hate (sorry, I do), and then there's a bunch of other stuff along these lines. But overall it's a nice little mall and it's often used (by me and plenty of others) as shelter from the freezing cold in winter, but I wish all the stuff inside it was more appealing, as in, that the Strong Hearts was as good as the other one, that the sandwich shop was an indie place or at least a Potbelly or something, and so on. And more options. They decorated it in college colours (orange of course), which is cool, and they even have a college-owned gym in here, so it's better than I'm making it out to be. Speaking of making out.

You will find a small mix of shops, food places, and of course an amazing place to get coffee. I know, there are no shortages of coffee places on the hill. This by far isn't somewhere that I would recommend you come to as a must see. However, if you are in the area and need a bit to eat, needs good drink, or just want to stay away from the madness of Marshall street for a few minutes. It's a pretty nice little escape from all that.

The shopping center includes a nail salon, hair salon, medical offices, jewelry, banking and a smoke shop among others.

It's a wonderful place to get lost in and walk around in for a couple of hours. You can grab a healthy and tasty meal at their cafe!

Great prices and woman at the counter/ owner is always welcoming. Last time we were there , she gave my friends children some delicious homemade chocolate cookies!

Perhaps my tastes have matured over the last 4 years since I last visited Johnny Appleseed Shops,…read morebut I genuinely enjoyed my visit recently... in fact, I made a purchase. The shops are still a little country flea meets antique fair meets boutique but somehow it all works together. This most recent trip, I saw vintage Vera Bradley bags, sparkly jewels, Pokémon Stickers, stunning blue glassware, punny plant picks, handmade clay ornaments, vases made of milk glass, locally made honey and mustards, ceramic bowls, and a bunch of furniture. They are still operating a cafe at the back of all the shops. The grilled cheese on the menu sounded sooo good. Totally worthy of a visit if you're in the area, go for the shopping, stay for lunch.

The establishments range from low brow to high class with college kid meat markets like Daisy Dukes to some pretty serious eats like Pascale's and Lemon Grass. Late night the close the street to traffic so you can make the stumble to your next bar. A number of the food places are open late (I would seriously suggest Nick's Tomato Pie) and in the summer, the Night's in Syracuse are perfect for out door drinking. If you want a good beer, Blue Tusk is your place. A ton of beer on tap plus outdoor seating. Awful Al's is a cigar bar and one of the few places in Upstate New York that allows indoor smoking. Empire Brewery brews their own and generally has some pretty good music. Syracuse Suds Factory also brews their own, though not quite as good as Empire, however the large space and lack of crowds tends to make this my default starting spot for a night out.

The girl comes to the door and says rudely to me that I need to bring everything inside and proceeds to shut the door. These things were heavy and once inside the store she said I had to lift them into a bin. This was very difficult, and hard for someone in their 70's. I was donating nice items from a downsize. She acted angry that I was donating. There were a lot of donations left outside, so I'm not sure why she picked me with all the heavy items to have to bring them inside. So, I guess, the moral of the story is donate where you can get some type of minor assistance or use a bin to bring it in all at one time. I made eight trips of heavy items, they didn't even seem to want.

When you walk in, the shop takes you back to a fantasy store I wish I had as a kid. They have so many of the shirts from the 90's, toys, excellent quality jackets and other vintage stuff. They even have a working floor piano! If vintage swag or old school street wear is your thing, I think this store will have something you'd like. The service was excellent and the owner was excited about his goods and that made the experience even better. I'm always a fan of clothing stores that have a passion for fashion and by the owners style, I'm sure he'll get you right.

They stock good, solid, pieces in a variety of styles, which are all tasteful. The staff is friendly and personable. Gideon's also keeps all of their various internet platforms up to date with what they have in stock, which is something I really appreciate. But the store is lovely, so go visit! As far as layout- upholstered items such as couches and big chairs are in the front space where they are better protected from the elements. The door to the back is where their tables, dressers, buffets, and other hard furniture are. The note I made is that they have sets but they are typically broken up into the type of furniture. For example you like a dresser and wish there was a matching nightstand for it then you will likely find it in the nightstands. Overall a very solid place to seek furniture.

I have written and called the shop with no response. I felt certain the vendor probably just didn't know and it was an innocent mistake. But after they haven't returned my calls, I'm not so sure. I live 80 miles away and had already told the recipient that I had gotten her Waterford crystal. How embarrassing. I feel at the very least the vendor should pay me the difference between what I paid and what I could pay for new on Amazon. Or maybe apologize?!?

Individual vendors maintain their own booths within- so you'll find sales for some that vary from time to time. They also carry a line of paints, waxes and stencils for the DIYer.
