It was very spacious and organized. They have many great merchandise. For example; cute stationaries, books, party supplies, crafting ideas, toys, puzzles, board games, seasonal decorations, T-shirt, slippers, seasonal items and decorations, cosmetics, pet accessories, and more. They also have various assortment of snacks, chocolate, candies and drinks. I explored every inch in the store. I was happy I did because I found many cute and interesting items. It is a self checkout store. Now you type your email on the screen, and you will receive 10% off on your next purchase which is cool. The staff were very welcoming and friendly.

Tons of parking available. They have some fun shops and great eateries such as Trader Joe's, Kohl's, Panera Bread, Ike's (by the way, they just opened 3 months ago), Chase Bank, and so much more. From the main street of Huntington Drive, it doesn't seem that huge... maybe it's because the shops are deep in and not closer to the street... who knows. Now that Ike's is here, I'll be visiting it more often when I'm in the Arcadia area. This shopping center is actually located in the city of Monrovia (neighbor of Arcadia) which I don't visit frequently except for driving through it as I'm leaving Arcadia on surface street. Huntington Drive is a long stretch through several cities and it just has so many plazas and shopping centers on its course. I actually enjoy my drive through LOL. Thank you! Anyway, drop on by here and enjoy an afternoon of fun shopping and good eats.

This store is located in a warehouse location, close to the gold line, all the way at the end of the suites. They have a plethora of Target brand items here, specifically home goods such as chairs, tables, couches, tv stands, etc. I took a look at the couch that I had been eyeing on OfferUp and it was in great condition! The couch was going for $200 at Target, versus here for $130 - a $70 savings which is not bad! One thing is, they don't have a return policy, but with prices that deeply discounted, it's easy to understand!

And it's very family friendly - they even have games like a giant Connect Four and bean bag toss! I have to say I was just a tad surprised at the size - the name "night market" gave me visions of something like the 626 market - but this is much smaller so just be aware. But I think that's a good thing - much smaller crowds and more local sellers! There was even a DJ playing fun, energetic music. There are several rows of booths offering all sorts of fun items - jewelry, ceramics, art, crafts, foods and treats- even Halloween items! There was also even a Henna artist. They had several food booths as well - tacos and pizzas, bubble tea and a lovely fruit booth that even had açaí bowls! Yum!! It's in a pretty central location in the SGV and there was plenty of street parking. I read there's a parking lot but I didn't find it - but like I said - plenty of street parking. There was a Yelp Elite event going on but I wasn't part of it this time - just came out to support some local businesses! It's free to enter but they ask that you reserve free tickets on Eventbrite - not sure why though bc there's no check in area or anything - I reserved 3 tickets for my party but couldn't find where we needed to show them - you basically just walk in. Very very similar to the local farmers markets that you'd find in places like Old Town Monrovia etc.

There is plenty of parking for those who would like to drive and park off of Las Tunas. I opted to just walk since I was less than a mile away. For a night market, it was quite small. Two rows of small nic nacks you can buy ranging from jewelry to essential oils. There was a small food section that had Korean bbq, Mexican food and pizza. We opted to try the Korean BBQ from GOCHU Gang. It was very delicious! You can definitely smell it from afar. The only thing was they didn't have their prices or what's on the menu listed on a stand. They did say they had a online menu but there is no posts with a QR code. So we just blindly ordered essentially and asked what they recommended. There were a few stands with dessert such as the cookies from Crackle n Puff and crepes. I do wish the night market was bigger. There weren't many things to see and the stands that were there were very selective. Night markets are usually more successful when there is a variety of stands. Overall, it was cute and small. If you're into a small and free night markets, it would be a cute night out. We spent about a little over an hour there. Just don't have super high expectations like the large night markets.

Located on the corner of Foothill Blvd. and Highland Oaks Dr. in Arcadia, and developed in 1966,…read moreThe Shoppes @ Highlander Center is home to several shops of various sizes. Some are chains, like Dollar Tree or Half and Half Tea Express, while others are privately owned, such as the dry cleaners or a small cigar & smoke shop. The plaza doesn't get terribly busy throughout the year, and it's probably because the stores here don't really draw an enormous crowd. Years ago, there was a Fresh & Easy Market on one end of the shopping center, next door to Dollar Tree. They filed for bankruptcy, closed all of their stores and the property has been sitting empty since then, although I did see workers in there recently. Some of the businesses that can be found here: Pizza Hut Splendid Smiles Dentistry Half & Half Tea Express Kumon (tutoring) Panda Nails K-9 Clips (groomer) Cigar Palace Rite-Aid Tae Kwon Do studio McDonald's Though the parking lot is fairly large, the lines painted for the directions of the cars to park and arrows that direct traffic to go against it (as if driving down the One-way street) can cause drivers to stop and honk at each other. It's not an exciting shopping center, and very dated. I'm hoping to see something fresh come in to the empty space of the former Fresh & Easy Market.

If I was to describe my experience in one word, it would be cozy. Everything has its place in the store and the inviting atmosphere makes it pleasant to shop and browse their affordable prices.

We came to enjoy the kids club, it's held around the center between the stores around the playground outside. The event is free and doesn't cost you to attend! It was a really hot day so luckily there were tents out for some shade. They also offered free water and lemonade (courtesy from vendors around) and a raffle at the end if you register during the event. There's a pond fountain containing goldfish and turtles which is fun to watch and have the kids watch as well. When you're hungry or bored, there's plenty of shops around the area to explore as get something to eat and drink. The best places would probably be the food court since it has the most variety of restaurants but there's also nearby restaurants such as noodles, hot pot, kbbq, and meet fresh with sweets and beverages. Restrooms at the promenade are family based and gendered, located behind California pizza kitchen.
