The weather was sketchy so I didn't think it would be too crowded but that was a bad call. The parking spaces are WAY too small! Larger SUV's taking two spaces & you can't blame them. I got to the store & made the exchange & got out of there PDQ!

Review for Charlotte Premium Outlets…read more After relocating to Charlotte from the San Francisco Bay Area, I've kept my same philosophy about shopping: retail prices are optional if you're willing to do a little homework. I'm always looking for quality and value without paying unnecessary markups, and this outlet center has been a very reliable place to find both. I needed professional clothing, shoes, and luggage for work, so I made the drive out here--and I found everything I needed in one trip. One of my best purchases was a beautiful piece of luggage from Travelpro at a great price. Many of the stores also offer additional discounts if you sign up for their rewards programs, which can make the savings even better. Stores I frequent most: * Banana Republic * J.Crew * Ann Taylor * LOFT * Saks Off 5th * Old Navy (very large location with great basics) * Le Creuset -- always fun to browse, even if just window shopping If you have the time to look carefully and shop strategically, you can really find high-quality items here at excellent prices. My personal shopping strategy: * I avoid weekends whenever possible * I park near the Saks entrance, especially along the back row where it's easier to remember where you parked * I shop during off-hours for a calmer, more efficient experience Parking overall is plentiful, and the layout is easy to navigate once you learn your preferred entry point. Another thing I appreciate is the atmosphere. In my experience, the staff across stores have been knowledgeable, polite, and helpful. The overall vibe feels practical and approachable--people are there to shop, not to show off. There are also plenty of restaurants and fast-casual options nearby, so it can easily become a full outing. If you're planning a larger shopping trip, using store hold or will-call services can be a smart way to keep your purchases secure while you continue browsing. As someone who pays attention to value and cost of living, I've found shopping in North Carolina--and the Southeast in general--to be refreshingly affordable compared to the West Coast. That difference alone makes places like this especially worthwhile. Bottom line: Easy parking, strong value, and a wide selection of reliable brands. If you shop strategically and avoid peak times, this outlet center can be a very productive and enjoyable place to find quality items at fair prices.

Located in the CLT Premium Outlet Mall and it has a good selection of items. The process of getting…read moreinto the store, so as to not let a large crowd of people in at once, was to let in a handful of people at a time as others departed. It was a pretty good process in place to keep order. Thanks hope they do have a good selection of discounted items, the only downside is that the sizes were literally all over the place. It was almost like trying to find a needle in a haystack and we were in there for quite a while. LOL! I have seen other outlet/factory stores in a much more organized fashion, so I think it can be improved upon. But that's my only downside to the store. It's a good-sized store and a vast selection for everyone. Parking isn't an issue at all, with an extremely large parking lot all around the outlet mall.

I have always liked Nike but never really started shopping here until I met my bf. Nike has…read moreeverything from athletic wear to casual wear and it's something for everyone. It is an outlet store so it is packed ALL the time and very understandably so. I was a little disappointed that a lot of items I wanted to purchase, they no longer had my size but wasn't much I could do. Hopefully they have better selections next time! My bf did find a nice windbreaker for both of us . They are black and with white drawstrings and they are so cute. They match my new Jordan's he just bought for me! I definitely recommend everyone go shop around if they need new Nike gear. I do suggest going during the week or later during the day if possible because the outlet does get busy and extremely crowded during the day.

Located at the intersection of Ashley Road and Wilkinson Blvd, this shopping center does have one…read moreentrance that crosses the busy Boulevard. If the traffic is thick, you'll want to make the turn onto Ashley where there are three entrances. The shopping center includes a bank, post office, pizza, Murphy USA gas station, wings, smoke shop, deli, medical offices, a pawn shop and my target today, the DMV license plate agency. The main anchor for this shopping center is the Walmart Supercenter. As such a big draw, you need to be particularly aware of your surroundings. Do not leave valuables in sight in your vehicle and be sure to lock the doors. CMPD patrols and they have a camera tower here occasionally.

I have been here a number of times, usually to hit up Trader Joe's but there's also a nice Best Buy (that does auto installations), Pisces all-you-can-eat sushi, Lost Worlds Brewing, and now 3rd & Fernwood which was my destination today (Yelp elite event!). There's bunches more of retail and restaurants. The tall parking deck worked well on a quiet midweek evening but during the holiday shopping season, it will be a real challenge. The deck is clean, well lit and I did see security on patrol. As always, be aware of your surroundings especially in or near the elevators and stairwells. I did not bring the Sprinter as there is a low height clearance. Two good access points from Kings Drive and Charlottetowne Avenue have traffic lights.

Speaking of retail, we tend to visit Trader Joe's the most...but there are other big stores, like Marshall's and Best Buys. Now, there used to be some cool boutiques here, but I don't recall seeing them recently (possibly closed due to Covid?). Probably the coolest feature of this strip is this little alleyway with a great patio dining...with clear views to Uptown Charlotte. Recently, they've installed this fun Umbrella Alley" display...colorful umbrellas suspended in mid-air. Think it's a temporary exhibition? In any case, there's always something cool to do and see here at The Met...and despite the long drive from where we live, we tend to go here quite often. Guess it's worth it?

During Christmas they decorate very nicely, the village looks very festive great for an impromptu photo shoot possibly!
