I'm going to be honest, I had no idea there was a mall in this highway triangle. I thought the…read morespace between where I-270 and I-495 met had nothing in it. I've only seen the area from the highways that are tree lined. I am quite amazed by how out of touch I was for this area. This mall is quite expansive. The one thing I love about the DMV area is that the malls are still thriving. Not to the point where every single store is filled, but no where near dead mall territory. I had some time to kill before I had to head back home and wanting to pick up some items. Parking here had me. I wasn't sure where would be the best place to park. I ended up in the outdoor lots and didn't even want to mess with the parking structure. As a note, early here means you will encounter a slew of parents with their children in tow. Be careful and mindful in the parking lot as they will be everywhere. The mall had a bit of everything in here. The typical anchors and national chains you would expect to find in a mall. Food court area was jammed with eateries and customers. I opted to not eat here. Would definitely come back. Especially on a lazy day. Good people watching, enough stores to grab whatever you might be thinking of getting, and ample parking.

This combo shopping strip center/dedicated retail building is an oddly dated contradiction in a…read morenumber of ways. There are three components, none of which are physically or logically cohesive: (a) the shopping strip portion which is spread out and disjointed, (b) the retail/office building which is outdated and houses an eclectic group of businesses that - again - don't correlate to each other, and (3) a brand new outlier short strip housing a small handful of mostly upscale trendy eating establishments. Oh, and there's a ridiculously overpriced gas station tucked away in the back far corner (behind the retail/office building). The good news: despite its awkward configuration, it's super convenient to the surrounding neighborhoods and has some strong "staying power" stores like Giant, Starbucks, and a large CVS. Local businesses also have a great presence, like Toy Castle and a memorabilia shop in the r/o building, Baskin-Robbins, California Tortilla and a bagel shop. Great option if you want to avoid the chaos of Westfields mall or Rockville. They're also remodeling the shopping strip. Would be better if they swapped out and got some different businesses with more draw than the vacuum store and Pet-Valu (which doesn't have much of a selection other than for dogs and selection/price-wise is not really competitive with PetSmart or Amazon). They also need to upgrade the retail/office building.

Cabin John Mall used to be a tremendous asset to our community, but has gone down hill fast…read more The decline began when the new owners allowed Christmas tree sales in the parking lot when customers needed the parking spaces to do our holiday shopping. The owners exacerbated the parking problems tremendously by putting in too many stores. CAVA opened a store and then opened up another one in Montgomery Mall two miles away. The property owners got rid of Broadway Pizza which was a Potomac Institution. I am furious. The new condos in the back take up even more parking. Carl Friedman who developed Cabin John would not support this.

Your patience will definitely go out the window here. Here's my advice, since people fly their cars in the parking lot, make sure you park facing out!! If you're able, park far if you do not want to come back to your car all scratched up, or with dings. My favorite stores: TJ Maxxs and Trader Joe's. They carry a lot more better merchandise here than other locations. Im glad Qdoba is still here.

Very convenient in that you could get just about everything you need here, from gas to food, to banking to dental car, from realtor services to the library. But because this is Potomac, you'll pay a premium for some of these things: for one, both of the gas stations easily are among the most expensive gas for miles around. There is a lovely gourmet grocer here where you can get fresh seafood and kosher meat BUT oh! The price tags! It's nevertheless a lovely grouping of shopping centers (literally on each corner of the intersection). There is a cozy outdoor seating area (complete with solar charging station) located in between the Starbucks and the MD Liquor Store.

But some of the shops here are still overpriced and honestly, for some reason, a portion of the clientele who shop here are (I hope unintentionally) rude ... from parking to not wearing masks to cutting in lines (social distancing accounts for gaps, folks!!!)

I might then  walk over to the Tower Records and buy a movie soundtrack or a necklace.      These two places  were high on my list. There even use to be a movie theater here, but that went the way of the dodo. Speaking of going the way of the dodo, Tower Records also went that way too. The space for the old Tower Records has been taken up only to shutdown two times that I can remember.  Today I learned that Barns&Nobles has taken up residence there. Even though it is only one floor,  the space is huge.  Tower Records had some problems filling the space, but they did it with the jewelry section, the adult videos/magazines section and the standard magazine sections.   I think Barns&Nobles won't have a problem filling the space.  I know there is a Starbucks store at Congressional Plaza akready,  but I have a feeling another one might be added inside the Barns&Nobles store at some point...if there isn't one already. I will have to check out this plaza the next time I am in town. I wanna see the inside of this Barns&Nobles; as well, as other areas of the plaza.
