We came to enjoy the kids club, it's held around the center between the stores around the playground outside. The event is free and doesn't cost you to attend! It was a really hot day so luckily there were tents out for some shade. They also offered free water and lemonade (courtesy from vendors around) and a raffle at the end if you register during the event. There's a pond fountain containing goldfish and turtles which is fun to watch and have the kids watch as well. When you're hungry or bored, there's plenty of shops around the area to explore as get something to eat and drink. The best places would probably be the food court since it has the most variety of restaurants but there's also nearby restaurants such as noodles, hot pot, kbbq, and meet fresh with sweets and beverages. Restrooms at the promenade are family based and gendered, located behind California pizza kitchen.

Tons of parking available. They have some fun shops and great eateries such as Trader Joe's, Kohl's, Panera Bread, Ike's (by the way, they just opened 3 months ago), Chase Bank, and so much more. From the main street of Huntington Drive, it doesn't seem that huge... maybe it's because the shops are deep in and not closer to the street... who knows. Now that Ike's is here, I'll be visiting it more often when I'm in the Arcadia area. This shopping center is actually located in the city of Monrovia (neighbor of Arcadia) which I don't visit frequently except for driving through it as I'm leaving Arcadia on surface street. Huntington Drive is a long stretch through several cities and it just has so many plazas and shopping centers on its course. I actually enjoy my drive through LOL. Thank you! Anyway, drop on by here and enjoy an afternoon of fun shopping and good eats.

WHY I CAME HERE? I've been to Arcadia Center several times…read morein the past. I've dined at May Mei and did take-out at Curry Flurry. I've shopped at Good Fortune and Ellie's Cathy Bakery. I'm not quite a regular here. I'm more of an occasional customer. I haven't tried all the restaurants so I would love to check out Chang's Garden, SinBala, and Let's Go Kebab one of these days.

ASalon.com Arcadia Center Pharmacy AT&T Cathay Bank Chang's Garden Curry Flurry Ellie's Cathy Bakery Good Fortune Supermarket (center is anchored by this market) Let's Go Kebab May Mei Cantonese Restaurant SinBala Yogurtland Arcadia EXTERIOR / PARKING: Clean and well maintained exterior. Free parking. A couple aisles may be slightly tight. Be careful driving in and backing out of the parking spaces. RECOMMEND THIS PLACE? If you're a supporter of Good Fortune Supermarket and some of its restaurants, then this place is for you.

They have the brands that you'd expect to see (i.e. Nike, UA, Adidas, Old Navy, Coach, The North Face, Converse, Vans, Levi's, Tommy, Kate etc.) They have a decent food court with more non-national chain food options. And, for those of you that are into customized goods, the Converse store here does custom Chucks and the Dodgers store offers custom jerseys. Please remember that you are buying directly from the manufacturers at outlet malls. 50% off MSRP is the starting point for discounts IMO since they set both the MSRP and % discount. So, purchase wisely. Check out my pics!

Free public parking can be found throughout the area. There is a big parking lot behind Chengdu Impression. Please read the signs as there may be a limit on how many hours of free parking are allowed. RECOMMEND THIS PLACE? YES! Do come on over to walk around Arcadia Downtown. I have yet to see all that it has to offer. I have some fun exploration to do myself. Catch you here!

This store is located in a warehouse location, close to the gold line, all the way at the end of the suites. They have a plethora of Target brand items here, specifically home goods such as chairs, tables, couches, tv stands, etc. I took a look at the couch that I had been eyeing on OfferUp and it was in great condition! The couch was going for $200 at Target, versus here for $130 - a $70 savings which is not bad! One thing is, they don't have a return policy, but with prices that deeply discounted, it's easy to understand!

Located on the corner of Foothill Blvd. and Highland Oaks Dr. in Arcadia, and developed in 1966,…read moreThe Shoppes @ Highlander Center is home to several shops of various sizes. Some are chains, like Dollar Tree or Half and Half Tea Express, while others are privately owned, such as the dry cleaners or a small cigar & smoke shop. The plaza doesn't get terribly busy throughout the year, and it's probably because the stores here don't really draw an enormous crowd. Years ago, there was a Fresh & Easy Market on one end of the shopping center, next door to Dollar Tree. They filed for bankruptcy, closed all of their stores and the property has been sitting empty since then, although I did see workers in there recently. Some of the businesses that can be found here: Pizza Hut Splendid Smiles Dentistry Half & Half Tea Express Kumon (tutoring) Panda Nails K-9 Clips (groomer) Cigar Palace Rite-Aid Tae Kwon Do studio McDonald's Though the parking lot is fairly large, the lines painted for the directions of the cars to park and arrows that direct traffic to go against it (as if driving down the One-way street) can cause drivers to stop and honk at each other. It's not an exciting shopping center, and very dated. I'm hoping to see something fresh come in to the empty space of the former Fresh & Easy Market.
