We were needing a day out and decided to go to the mall. The mall had some very unique stores and…read moresome vintage store that I had not been to in a while. I ventured into the arcade and found a skeet-ball machine. It brought back memories of a time from my past. Please give this mall a try, businesses need us to venture back to the mall!

I remember when this Mall was one of the best around.. I worked at Coach House Gifts in the mid…read more90's and back then, this Mall had it all.. Now it's trashy, and ghetto-fied.. You seriously sometimes want to "carry" going in there.. Oh wait, the thugs do that already.. Poor Security, stores are leaving left and right.. The Round One is a joke.. Which is sad, because that really is a nice place.. This really is the ghetto mall of Peoria..

I've only been gone 25 maybe 30 years so the place has changed a lot having a sushi lunch to start…read moreoff our adventure. Definitely a better mall than SouthPark Mall it was hardly anything there A lot of people lot of cars lot of traffic reminds me of home Southern California

Small mall, not many offerings. They have some anchor stores and some generic shoe stores…read more The restrooms smell.

Please don't get me wrong. This is a failing mall. It is nothing like the mall I remember from my…read morechildhood. But, the stores that are left, and the food spots that are left are doing their best. The workers at all of them were helpful and polite. We found some decent sales and the food was affordable. But, there's not much selection for restaurants. And there's plenty of missing amenities. Basically it's dying like every other mall in America.

I try to walk here a couple of times a week, its climate controlled, with security. 2 laps is…read moresupposed to equal a mile. There are still some nice shops here even though there are no real anchor stores, except maybe Dicks Sporting goods. I like Lost Worlds, Dumb Records, and some nice clothing stores. I wish some other stores could be coaxed in. Maybe they could try things they did in the past, such an antique shows, fashion shows for fall and spring, and the holidays. Years ago, they had first responders and police departments displaying vehicles and doing fingerprinting for children. A Costco would be nice or a furniture store. Update. Went to the mall today and saw the Christmas trees. It was very well done, I hope for more people to participate next year!! Maybe they could contact a train group and have them set up a christmas train. Or the mall could utilize the empty store fronts and put in some decorations in the windows. Some additional photo opportunities would also be nice. Gingerbread cookies would be a hit as would live christmas music or swing choirs. Contact schools and churches. Thank you for having the MOCR there.

No longer a real shopping mall not sure why or when you that happened. Most all of the stores are…read moreclosed. It is still a great place to go this time of year to walk. I go there daily and see a lot of the same people.

Eastland Mall wasn't the mall it once used to be. As many residents of Bloomington-Normal know…read moreabout 10+ years ago this mall was thriving with stores galore and had an actual food court. In present day the food court is bare with 3 restaurants and that one pretzel stand (It's still tasty all these years later though). Stores have dissipated with time the good ones being H&M, Macy's, JC Penny, and Victoria's Secret. I look forward to the day where we get more stores, and that those store revive the mall with good owners and make Eastland Mall what it once was, a good mall.

My favorite little rural mall! I remember when they had all 3 anchors (Sears, Bergner's, and…read moreJCPenney) and that wasn't too long ago...2-3 years and boom! All gone. Kind of a fun stop...kind of depressing at the same time. Marshalls is nice, the ladies in Victoria's Secret were incredibly sweet and helpful, Bath and Body Works smells good, Christopher and Banks had some decent sale stuff. The AMC theater seems to be the biggest draw. The former JCPenney will soon become Spirit Halloween. I sure hope this mall can somehow be revitalized. The locals need somewhere to shop that isn't Kohls or Walmart.

I came across this mall completely by accident but I really had to come here because I am such a…read moremall enthusiast. I consider Peru kind of like the middle of nowhere, so I'm surprised there was a mall here. I came here on the weekend and the parking lot was packed and I thought this place was packed because we were expecting plenty of food options. I guess, the only thing really driving this mall here is the movie theater. The rest of the mall is basically an afterthought. The mall itself is more of a medium size, once story mall, over half the stores are vacant and just one anchor I believe, there really isn't much food here either if you're hungry. The stores they have here aren't bad either, I know this place is trying its best too. I love it's creative idea to put a haunted house in a mall, I give that credit. Definitely great for mall walking but not an exciting mall. This mall in my opinion is really outdated with its interior, it reminds me of walking into Ford City before they remodeled it.
