If i were to rate this mall about a 6 years ago it would be a five. because if you grew up in this area, then you probably remembered the mall full of life and their was always something in the mall that you would need. But now all thats left in the mall is a JC penny's , Dave and busters and some other businesses that are open in the mall. The good part is that most of the mall would be repurposed for different types if jobs and retail Such as a hospital being constructed in the old Sears, a tile shop opening in the abandoned Maceys And also other building being repurposed/built around the mall. read more

This mall has lost its shoppers steadily over the last 10+ years like most malls. It's a barren wasteland when you walk through the empty spaces where businesses once lived. During the holidays they still had put up their xmas decorations which was nice. They have recently rented out part of the building to UofR medical offices so things will be much much different than in years past. Dicks sporting goods is still around, RPM speedway and Dave and busters are attractions located at the mall but have been shut down for to covid for almost a year now. I usually go to get my healthy steps in and not be in the cold. It's great in that regard . read more

Marketplace Mall - Shopping Centers Near Me - Rochester, New York

Location location location.... that is why I shop here. This is the closest mall to me... so for better or worse we are in a relationship. So here's the good stuff... great location, easy access so much parking... large stores such as Jcpenny's, Macy's and Sears (while it lasts) Love that old Navy is closer, and I usually find great deals at Dick's sporting goods. Lot's of great stores here, such as Pay less, The body shop, Yankee shop and Abercrombie and Fitch. Also a great food court with lo's of options...taco bell and Tom Wales are my favorite... Always lots of people here, people walking the perimeter for exercise, young teens just hanging out or people like me trying to find that affordable clothing option for work... I will remain a fan of this mall because of its location and always have affordable shopping options for me. read more

Great place to walk excellent in more talk, dicks sporting goods have great sales prices two floors and stylish in sports, fountain at mall is amazing with amazing art style along with DTLR and Jimmy jazz. read more

A nearly life long hang out that is chalk full of memories. This is an EXCELLENT mall, lots of great restaurants like the Melting pot and Papaya to say nothing of a well stacked food court. Dining aside pretty much everything you could want for shopping , be it holliday, everday or birthday is well within reach. The play place is also a great hit for parents who need to grab a Starbucks and recharge while their little ones romp and play. Only thing truly missing is a pure, straight up toy store. Not a toy store in the traditional sence in the whole buiding unfortunately. read more

See all

If this were the Barketplace, then dogs might be allowed inside. As it was, I couldn't even take Starlight in there. The Marketplace is a big, spacious, busy mall in the heart of Henrietta south of Rochester. It would have scored a 3 for being clean and fun and full of energetic young people, but they went and got rid of my favourite store inside - Abbott's - I wasn't too happy about that. Also some of the employees weren't too friendly in helping me find the food court, and then later telling me what happened to Abbott's. But it's a big, typical Mall and you'll find most of your typical Mall stuff in here. Oh and if the employees say "the food court entrance says food court on it", please inform them that it actually doesn't, and their attitudes stink. read more

Marketplace Mall - Shopping Centers Near Me - Rochester, New York

This is your average mall. It's got the same name brands as most malls across the country: Aeropostale, Express, Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Bath & Body Works... It's got the same Hollister and Abercrombie, only as an added bonus they've parked a shirtless teenager outside each store. (The one outside Abercrombie seemed to be enjoying himself until some creep "thought" he was a mannequin, and touched him inappropriately.*) It's got the cell phone stores, the jewelry stores, and the random kiosks trying to sell you skincare products. It's got the same department stores at the ends (Sears, Macy's), and throws in the crappy one (Bon Ton) that nobody shops at. This means you want to park at that end, because you'll have to walk less in the frigid wind. It's got the same Mall Chinese Food that you should've stopped eating after the free sample, because it will make you feel ill later. Without fail. It's got the same Auntie Anne, with the same smell that invades your brain until you break down and buy a pretzel. Basically, this mall is just your average monument our consumer culture. They've got everything you expect, but the people-watching is far more entertaining than shopping. At least for me. ____________ *Don't worry, I got away before mall security got there.

At one point in time, this place was the bomb. Waay before Eastview Mall became the powerhouse location that it is, Marketplace Mall was the Taj Mahal Mall. WOKR TV (now WHAM) used to broadcast a morning chat show from the mall, "Morning Break with Don Alhart and Wanda Miller ". The join's pretty run down now, with most of the upscale retail stores steering clear of Henrietta to set up shop in Ontario county & Eastview Mall. The surrounding area is looking shabby as well, though the recent decimation of Patrick Pontiac has stanched some of the localized blight. With the demise of Midtown Plaza and the sad state of affairs in Irondequoit, Marketplace's fate is probably secured. Stop by and take a leisurely stroll through this shrine to 70's era retail architecture... read more

As a teen, I didn't really care for the Marketplace mall. As an adult, I actually think this mall is pretty good. Not too small, not too big (like the one in Dallas which is 3-stories high!) Many of the stores are now Outlets... cheaper prices! We actually only came in to go to Express and was pleasantly surprised it was an Outlet as well and we scored a great deal on men's dress shirts (3/$90). My husband and I also liked that there is a Dave and Busters here! We let our kiddos play some games and have some fun. (Something I feel like my parents would never have let us do. Haha) Other than those 2 places, we didn't really explore the mall to see what other stores were there. We'll return when we're in the ROC. read more

Well here I am at the mall I use to love but now it's a Ghost mall. There are only a handful of stores open and the only big store here is JCPennys! No good court, no shoe stores, no pet store, no Starbucks, no kiosks it's just bare here. This is a Sad day, truely! This was a great place to shop by I guess Covid has its way and won and all these businesses are gone! Here the good news I had to go to Greece Ridge Mall instead and they are Booming with stores all open and a ton of people shopping.... I'm amazed at what's going on here and so excited to shop here even though it's a few extra minutes out of my way but very Happy! So this is where I'll be from now on. They might as well tear down Market place mall! read more

I really enjoy this mall, it's clean, well kept up, and has a nice selection of stores. While this mall has suffered the loss of large anchor stores like many others, the mall still has mostly full occupancy. The food court has a good variety of places to eat and the mall has fun activities to do as well like Dave and Busters, the raceway, and glow golf! I enjoy walking around here while shopping, or just to take a stroll on a colder day. It's located conveniently off the interstate so it's not difficult to get to from anywhere in Rochester. read more

3.5 stars as a mall but I'm rounding up for its location. Marketplace is in the mecca of Rochester Shopping, Henrietta. The Mall is the center point of all things consumer along Jefferson Rd. When I first came to Henrietta to check out R.I.T I was overwhelmed by the amount of restaurants, stores, and strip malls I passed once I got off the highway. When I thought I had seen everything I passed Marketplace and having a mall here just seemed to make sense and complete the area with every type of shopping experience. Enough of Henrietta nostalgia, Marketplace Mall is a pretty small (as far as malls go) one leveled mall. They have all the mall basics (sears, macy's, food court, etc..). The mall always has a good amount of people and is kept in a clean and tidy state. Unfortunately I couldn't find a website for the mall so if you're looking for a specific store I'd go to that store's website and see if they have a location here. read more

Marketplace Mall - Shopping Centers Near Me - Rochester, New York

Malls have come, malls have gone and malls have been demolished!! **cough, cough irondequoit, midtown plaza!!** Marketplace has staying power and that says something about this wilmorite property. Is marketplace anything special! No. I've shopped at malls all over the world. Compared to other shopping centers, place falls very short, however, with that being said, marketplace holds its own. A good amount of your national chain stores can be found here. For us ladies who love makeup, MAC cosmetics has a counter at Marketplace Macy's - the only location in Rochester. When you're in a rush and don't want to walk a trillion miles to the ends of the earth, this place is perfect. It is also a great location, being close to RIT and U of R and the south west side of the city. read more

I like Marketplace Mall. It has pretty much everything you want from a mall: great stores, food court, fun. It is right off of the bus route (124 or 24, depending on the day of the week) which is great for someone who doesn't have a car. You can also get a lot of stores that you might want. My go-to stores here are Express and Bath and Body Works. The best part (and most underappreciated) is the food court. You have a Tom Wahl's, a Burger King, Farmer Jon's popcorn, and other options that I haven't tried but always look tempting! read more

Alright, this is the Marketplace Mall. A somewhat average shopping center with a couple of decent stores and in somewhat of a medicore location, not that I blame Wilmorite properties for this since Marketplace was built when most of the surrounding shopping outlets didn't even exist. However, it doesn't appear Marketplace aged well with time. You may notice when you pull up to the mall that depending on where you decide to park, the parking lots near the south side next to the Bon-Ton are vacant, even on a busy Saturday. Wonder where they went you say? Probably to the Target, Best Buy, Laz-E-Boy, and the other new speciality and department stores that plopped up with no warning about thrity to twenty years. It can be said that when you walk that you are greeted with the classy teal and pink diamonds mixed with cream on the tile floor that look older then the mall itself. Sadly, that's what I saw it to be, dated. I myself actually liked dated things and someother's around here might as well, but to most people today, the fingers are starting to point. The floors may be one thing, but the rest of the interior decor appears to be a tad grungy and the mall feels stuffy when it's a rainy day despite not alot of people in the mall itself. I can understand the grungyness as with age, it starts to show but for the stuffy issue, I don't know! Stuffiness aside, I enjoy the greenery and seating areas placed throughout the mall, even though their aren't that many compared to the other two competing centre's. The biggest offense? The food court. Yes they have some of the casual fast food joints and bistros that you would expect to find at a mall but McDonalds or Burger King? Nope. The seating is minimal for a mall this size and the court is only located in a small wing with little openess and small breathing room if you find it crowded, which is a rarity. The store selection? It's decent with a good amount of clothing realitors, electronic dealers, and sportswear. I'll comment on the seperate department stores later as this is just for the mall itself but even with the amount they have, I would've expected a bit more from a mall this size but for what I got, it's alright. This may be no grand spectacular shopping mall, but with what I experienced, I wouldn't mind going back when I feel like going to Henrietta. read more

Its a decent mall...good for people watching and I found some sweats and cut off shirts. I think I was being watched more than I was watching people. I guess like chingy "You can tell by the way I walk, I aint from round here..." Overall its good for walking around and seeing if there is anything of use...I dont know if I would suggest this mall over any other shopping center, but its local and well maintained...why not. Lol read more

For Rochester, malls are not the greatest. I prefer Marketplace over Greeceridge that's for sure. It is cleaner and the crowd is nicer. The stores offered are a good variety. I do like that they have Dave & Buster's. read more

The mall is okay, it general has what I want. I like that there are some of the staple stores that are at all of our malls but I also enjoy the fact that every mall has a few different stores from each other. I am not a fan of the layout, I hate the wings, but there is nothing I can do about that. The food court is also super small but I don't generally eat at the mall so I can't say as if I care. The mall has what I want, when I need it. I don't go shopping store to store often but this is a place I can do that if I wanted. read more

This mall is my least favorite mall in all of Rochester (exception of the Medley Center, since that doesn't really count). I just feel like every time I go here, it seems dirty and dingy. It may not be dirty at all, but it's just so dark and depressing for some reason. This could be because the mall closest to my place of residence is Greece Ridge, which has windowed ceilings and is bright all the time. It does have a good range of stores, but nothing that Greece Ridge or Eastview couldn't provide. The food court is very basic and doesn't touch that of Greece or Eastview. Overall, in Rochester, you can do better. It's so rundown and dated...it's just "meh" for me and definitely doesn't warrant a drive all the way out to Henrietta. read more

Um folks...the patient is on the table and heartbeat is fading. Many shuttered stores including anchors.

Malls are a place of intoxicating food smells. I always look air conditioning and a race car track. So what's not to like? It was spacious and had shops for the whole family. I thought it was nice. I really find it hard to find the bathroom...maybe it is part of its interior design to get you to see more of the stuff you need to buy. Did I mention it has a cool fountain? This is a great family place. I really liked the food court! read more

Why not close it down already? I've been living in Henrietta for years and I've slowly watched this mall go down into the drain. Marketplace mall isn't nearly as close as what it used to be, due to the fact that all the stores have been closing down. The mall is a ghost town now and nobody is going to step up and give this mall the renovation that it needs. So until that happens, just shut it down. read more

Maybe it was the best mall in Rochester when it opened...but now it just looks like a pink and green cupcake with it's tacky outdated style and limited selection of stores. Things You'll Like: - Some Anchor Stores are bi-level - it's in a large commercial district Things You'll Hate: - It's pretty small (1,100,000 square feet) - food court selection is limited - lacks unique stores found in the other shopping centers read more

Good selection of stores. Place seems pretty safe and easy to navigate. Parking can be hard to find depending on how busy it is. read more

Marketplace Mall - Nice clean floors. Cant go wrong with a floor pic - Shopping Centers Near Me - Rochester, New York

25 years ago, this was the premier place to shop, and the competing mall over in Victor was the outdated place. Now, things have flip flopped. I visited this past weekend and Marketplace Mall seems antiquated, in dire need of a facelift. A lot of stores have changed, and of course, a lot of stores have not. Moving Dick's from across the street to in the Mall is a step in the right direction but it really doesn't give the mall any more appeal. The interior doesn't really seem to have changed over time, the late 70's early 80's feel is still very apparent. The place seems dreary by mall standards and is more of a hangout than a shopping center. read more

Eh. I go here when I am feeling too lazy to drive to Eastview. Typical stores but it is always very packed. The play area they put in near Starbucks has attracted more families here and has helped it grow somewhat. Marketplace does have a couple of stores Eastview does not (eg. Charming Charlie) but Eastview has Lush so that gives Eastview the win automatically in my book. The food court is standard. The baristas at the Starbucks seem perpetually unfriendly (relative to other Starbucks I have been to). FYI - If you shop at New York and Company, the Eastview store is considered as more of a premium store and gets clothing styles that the Marketplace store does not. read more

For the third time today meh.. I've seen better malls like galleria but I do like the inside of this mall. They have a large selection of stores and miles of parking. Went to pandora to pick up charms that galleria has yet to get in in over two months that's we've been on a waiting list for.. Sad really. had to drive 60 miles for a charm, but my fiancés mom is worth it .... I guess :/ read more

Marketplace Mall - Pretty - Shopping Centers Near Me - Rochester, New York

Not as good as Eastview, but there is a lot more around it for restaurants and plazas...who doesn't love a plaza.

This was my first time at this mall. It is in the process of being converted into an outlet mall, so there were many empty stores. Many of the remaining stores were smaller, with a few exceptions (e.g. Old Navy, Sears). They have a food court, and a small play area for kids. It was perfect for my 2 year old, but there were many bigger kids who were quite rowdy, so we had to leave. It was a perfect place to walk around. I'm definitely interested to see what the renovations bring! read more

Avoid if you can. This mall is a dump. Go to Eastview or Pittsford plaza. I always feel like a need a shower after leaving this mall plus many stores are leaving like Friendly's, Radio Shack, Lane Bryant, Gap to name a few. read more

I enjoy this mall. It's has changed alot on the past years. But they still have a diffrent store selection. The one end of the mall got very deserted near Dicks. I hope they find some good stores to move into. The food court has diffrent choices vet as big as Victor or Greece Mall. Also no more merry go round either. read more

Lots of stores having great sales this weekend! Decent enough mall to get the job done and hopefully find what you need.

This mall seems like it is in between some type of phase. Not really sure what it is though! Decided to visit since it was down the street from where we were staying. It had many store which were the usual mall brand but there was also some empty storefronts. read more

This was a cute mall. We ran in just to get a few things after dinner with some friends. No complaints - it was clean and the smell of cookies and Auntie Anne's covered the massive amounts of cologne :) . read more

I only went once, but I did not have one bad experience. My wife and I walked all around the mall and shopped at several locations, including Hot Topic, Best Buy Mobile, and NY & Co. We ate burgers from Tom Wahl's, which by the way, were delicious! We spent about 2 hours at the mall. Lots of parking outside and close to the highway. read more

My favorite mall in the area. It's not too big if you need to go to multiple stores but it's big enough to have all the stores I like.

Took the Family out on Black Friday. It was crowded to be expected. Started out at Macy's, not very many deals. Moved on to J.c. Penny's, much better prices. Nicr6Mall! read more

I like this mall I feel that the food court is definitely lacking compared to Greece Ridge Ctr.. This is the mall I go to when I want to shop and be low-key...Cause if I go to Greece imma run into ALOT of people that I know.. Which is okay but there are those days when you just don't want to be bothered and just want a pair of new sneakers or a new outfit and to get on with your day. read more

Mall is old and lacks exciting, modern stores. The food court needs a major renovation!

this mall aint shit like ok it has a few good stores but too many girls fashion like fuck that theres like 4 stores for guys stuff and one of them is taco bell girls dont like taco bell and if they do theyre fake as fuck screw GAP too like wtf who shops at gap read more
