Best Mall?

[BenH]

Hi guys where would you say is the best place to go shopping for shoes and clothes in the Orlando area? Doesn't have to be strictly designer..I like to shop in places like the Gap, H&M and River Island in the UK..so that kind of thing.

Cheers!

Only ever been to the Mall of Millania, and loved it there! Specially Macy's. :spin:

We like Mall at Millenia, most of the shops are expensive but there are some reasonable ones like Zara etc.

Florida Mall is quite good as well, we were on our way to Mall at Millenia one day and the teaxi driver said that locals go there more than anywhere else, it's massive and has lots of good shopps i.e abercrombie and fitch, gap etc

Have a look on the net and it'll give you a list of the shops in each one x

[BenH]

Oh I like the look of the Mall at Millenia, might have to try out the Cheesecake Factory too!

[CityWalk]

best mall has to be the FLORIDA MALL

[Susiedo]

Mall at Millenia for me! Breakfast at Panera Bread before the stores open then down to serious shopping. Feet and purse tattered then it's time to head for the Cheesecake factory for a late lunch. Bliss!

The Mall at Millenia is fabulous, alot of the shops are expensive but reasonable in comparison to over here. The Premium Outlet Mall can be great for named brands at cheaper prices, Ralph Loren, Reebock, Gap etc. :wavey:

[kerryh]

Florida Mall is best for a large variety of shops, though must admit my favourite is Mall at Millenia

[Finn family]

Florida Mall,............all the samples in the food court !

[Fiona]

The Mall at Millenia is our favourite mall, it is really lovely there. Tiffany`s and the Lindor chocolate shop are my favourites there. :-)

[abi113]

Mall of Millenia for me! You might like American Outfitters - kind of like River Island , very reasonably priced

[BenH]

Think we will have to have a trip to both malls, they sound great. Thanks.

Same at Millania, you don't need to buy a meal, just walk around for an hour getting free samples shoved in your face.:pgig:

[Elsie]

It's a matter of opinions I guess but I'd go for The Florida Mall. Don't get me wromg, Mall at Millenia was great but there were some very expensive shops - i.e. nothing has a price on; if you have to ask you can't afford it!

I'd still visit both of them though!

[ElaineD]

Have to agree with Elsie, Mall of Millenia was nice to have a walk around but for me serious shopping would be at the Florida Mall. I also got some good bargains at Premium Outlets.

[stitch99]

Florida Mall sounds right for you.Gap banana republic etc.
Happy shopping

[LizzyBear]

I like any mall *lol* but if I could only pick one it would be the Florida Mall, something for everyone there.

[scottishmum]

my favourite has to be premium outlets, we just came home on wednesday and spent loads at premium, imo has the best shops, calvin klein, gap, banana republic, hugo boss, ralph lauren, french connection, levis, nike , lacoste, which i think is new, i got polo shirts there for $49 and $53 dollars,
we spent about 4 seperate trips to premium. :)

[Twinkle Toes]

I'd have to agree with ScottishMum.....We went to Premium Outlets for the first time in February and my only regret is that we've never been before! It's fantastic....could've spent a fortune if only we'd had the extra space in our cases!

The best Gap outlet I've found though is at Prime at the end of the I-Drive, really must try the one at Florida Mall though.

[mainecoon lover]

I have been to Florida Mall, Premium and prime. I must say i enjoy them all although i do like to shop :wink

[obi wan kenobi]

Altimont Mall, same shops as Florida Mall, but because its used by locals more than tourists the prices are cheaper.

[jacqui1965]

Go to the FLORIDA MALL its brill. there is a great selection of shops if u have younger kids they have a bear factory where u can make, name and dress your hand made lovable teddy and u also have lots of clothes shops and places for perfume and bath lotions and if u are into yankee candles u are in for a big treat. and for the men that are into games u have lots of shops like fries.(my step dad phil loves it)and u can also go to wall mart it is not a mall but its a place where u can get lots of cheapy stuff on sale. oh and im not jacqui im her daughter grainne (age:11) hope this helps u and u enjoy florida. oh i went to the bear factory it is great i named my bear brooke and i forgot to tell u about the best shop.........the m'n'ms shop with cool mnms despensers phil got a cool one ......it sort of reminds him of himself.an mnm sitting lazily on the sofa......well have to go now ....... bye

[Celica190]

I must admit, the last time I was at the Florida Mall, I felt ill because there were so many shops!

Afraid I'm a Premium Outlet Mall kinda gall (yes, I'm cheap!) but will still go to Florida Mall & Mall at Millenia for some window shopping.:grin:

[lindylou2_2002]

Mall of malenia for the cheese cake and to dream then off to premium outlet or florida mall to do some serious shopping.
THat said I got a fab ralph lauren jacket reduced from $125 to $65 last year in maceys.

Has the florida Mall got Hot Topic? this is where my DD is desperate to go

[BenH]

Cheers guys, going to have to try them all now!!

[LizzyBear]

Has the florida Mall got Hot Topic? this is where my DD is desperate to go

Yep it does I spent a fortune there the first time I went to Orlando, hehe. If she likes Hot Topic she may also like Pacsun (skate/surf type brands) and Journeys (shoes) aswell.

[ameliaUK]

Thanks Lizzy i'm sure she will like the others as well ,may need to remortgage before i go have 3 DD and the eldest 2 cant wait to hit the malls Yikkes!!

[daviewat]

Malls are great all over But I also did like the flea markets, some very very good bargains and fun haggling at some of them :-)))))))

[dom22]

I like all of the malls mentioned but for different things - so it depends what you want.

I really think it pays to shop around... For example, IMHO the Ralph Lauren, Nike and Adidias stores at Premium Outlets are the best ones in the area (and goodness knows there are enough).

Then Milenia has Maceys and other flag ship stores and is so far as I know the only place that there is a victorias secret - so we have to go there for the DW. Millenia also benefits from Cheesecake factory, making it worth the trip all by itself. Couple that with the largest Target store I have ever seen across the road you can easily spend some serious time and money in the area.

Florida Mall is great for the range of shops.
