The area is very clean and during busier seasons like Christmas, the area offers police to manage traffic. I do most of my shopping online now but I love to come to The Summit as a special treat to myself because it feels like just that when I visit one of their stores or restaurants. My favorite stores here include Belk and Sephora.

This coffee trailer has the sweetest workers that came from Nashville and have ranted and raved about their experience and transition to Bham. I was obsessed with apple butter as a child and saw they had a signature drink with it as an ingredient. This was a no brainer for me to order and I'm glad I did. "The Eve" - toasted apple butter latter with caramel drizzle. I got mine iced. My Mom said she didn't want anything, tasted mine after we walked away and had us turn around so she could order something for herself. She ended up ordering "The Joshua" - shortbread latte with milk and honey and cookie crumbles. Hers was too sweet for me. She loved it though.

I like Patton Creek Shopping Center!…read more They have gone through some changes, especially during COVID, but there is still quite a bit to do here. They have a nice selection of restaurants that range from Steak house to Cajun to Hibachi - and they also have some faster options like Firehouse and a brick fire pizza place. Sports clips - my primary place I go for hair cuts. An Alabama/Auburn fan store, Gamestop, Dicks Sporting Goods, World Market, Ross, Bookstore - shoe store - just a little bit of everything (sorry if I left something off). This place makes it simple. You need a haircut and want to get lunch - it can all be done here in a pretty reasonable amount of time. Highly recommend if you find yourself in the Hoover area.

Great area that is still growing and developing. Good selection of restaurants that has something for everyone (Cajun, Steakhouse, Burger place, Chicken Place, Grilled Cheese Place) and much, much more. They continue to expand, there is an Aldi as well as a few other places to shop. New construction is currently going on. Fast food options as well. From what I understand an Amphitheater is coming to this area as well (signs are actually currently in place indicating that it's coming soon). Really great expansion in the Hoover area. Looking forward to seeing what else they add in the coming months.

My one and only reason to come to this shopping center is to go to Stein Mart. I have gone to several of the other stores that make up this shopping complex but I wish there were better desirable shopping options other than what's currently located here. Overall , this shopping center is clean and there is a big parking lot available to accommodate many people. One plus side is that there are other shopping, restaurants, coffee shops in the area. Vestavia City Center is located in the heart of Vestavia so it's in a centralized location!

There are several restaurants to select from for all budgets and tastebuds and a couple of bars and places that sell sweet treats. Every vendor we encountered had great customer service with a smile and were very helpful as we looked over their menus. There's even an exercise studio on site as well. There is plenty of seating near the stage, and near the restaurants. Most of the restaurants serve you by having you walk to a small window to place your order and when your buzzer goes off, you return to pick it up. We went on a Friday, so it was crowded and a lot of kiddies were running free, lol. We didn't get to stay to hear the band, but will vowed to return on another evening to check out the entertainment. The big screen had the Master's Tournament on for those that wanted to view it. I remember there were other vendors located there I was interested in trying out when The Edge first opened that are no longer there. Overall I enjoyed my visit here and look forward to my next one. Pro Tip: Check their website to view current tenants. They seem to change frequently.

Returns are always easy, and the cashiers are efficient and pleasant. I do shop this location periodically. It's about a 50/50 chance on whether the stock is orderly and organized. The worst area is usually the cosmetics and accessories (to the far right in the store). If you like to dig through the additional markdowns, it's not unusual to find items broken, sampled, etc. Same for the additional mark clothing; every once in a while those racks look more like thrift racks than clearance, but once you find that diamond in the rough it can be worth it. I do wish this location got more of the special occasion pieces, but either I always miss them or they go to different Rack locations. If you've got the time, it's a great place to find great prices on everything from budget-friendly brands to designer brands.

Nordstrom Rack has discounted designer and popular high end brands that haven't sold in their Nordstrom stores. It's not uncommon to have difficulty finding assistance, finding sizes in the wrong place - specifically shoes, messy racks, clothes left in changing rooms, and a long checkout line moving at a snails pace. When shopping here I expect at least a 50% discount, but it's not uncommon to only find 25%-30% on discounted items. Even with these negatives, I've found great shoes and some clothing. I will return because I love the thrill of a good hunt!
