Always appreciate supporting local businesses. There were about a dozen shops and a couple places…read moreto get refreshments and food. It's directly next to the Hilton. There were a couple shops that had nice gifts and souvenirs from Norfolk (757 area) one shop had some locally brewed beers/ciders too. So I got a lager from big ugly brewing and a ginger drink from another local brewery...both were good. Don't plan on spending too much time or making a special trip just for it but if you are in the area stop by. There was a leather worker too working his trade. Definitely felt clean and safe by the way.

There is a restaurant but they were having a private event and there was also a shop that did 3D printing which was cool to look through the windows to see what was being printed. I saw a bunch of signage stating they were doing some future renovations and new shops would be coming in. I look forward to checking out the pop up vendors on my next visit.

This is one of our favorite library locations. There is a decent collection here of nonfiction,…read morefiction, DVDs, CDs, YA books and graphic novels, and children's books. The staff and volunteers are delightful, and there are many programs available. My child loves the makerspace and the open hours there. The instructors are so welcoming, and there are different groups that meet up in the space, like a robotics club. There are many study and meeting rooms that you can book for individuals and groups. You can book online or see what is available when you come in. We've met friends here for gaming dates, and the spaces are well equipped and comfortable. Several sitting/reading nooks are available around the space as well. It's a great place to meet friends.

Big, big library. This is the "central" library for Chesterfield and it shows. It is a huge, modern…read morefacility. Clean and airy and bright. Lots of different styles of seating throughout and I was able to find a spot where I could sit comfortably for about two hours. The library is quiet and peaceful. There's a quiet murmur as some study parties are underway. The librarians are moving about as well. Wifi was easy to connect to and speedy. You do not need to be a local resident to use the wifi or to enjoy the library. [Review 18097 overall - 1375 in Virginia - 1619 of 2022.]

The return policy was clearly a two-day return across vendors, and it was always communicated upfront. Some reviews read more like narratives than factual accounts--no quotes, no context, just interpretation presented as fact. Even small personal jabs (like comments about someone's hair) don't exactly add credibility. From my experience, this is a well-run store with a helpful and respectful team.

I've visited this place several times and regularly shop at a few of the stores here. Every time…read moreI've made a purchase, the cashiers have been very clear about the return policy -- items must be returned within 2 days, and anything marked final sale cannot be returned. I appreciate that they consistently explain the policy so customers know the rules upfront. This past weekend, I went shopping with my mom on Saturday. On Sunday she asked me to return a pair of earrings because the closure wasn't secure. I went back to the store with the item and the receipt about 15 minutes before closing. When I brought the item to the counter, the interaction started with some not-so-inviting remarks. I asked the associate helping me if there was an issue returning jewelry, and she said there wasn't but that she needed to check the receipt because of the strict policy. Before she even looked at my receipt, another employee with reddish hair stepped in and said they had to be careful because people "try to get over all the time." At that point, my receipt still hadn't even been reviewed. I firmly explained that my mom had asked me at the last minute to return the item and that I really didn't want to come back out, but because of their policy she wanted to make sure it was returned within the timeframe. The other employee responded sarcastically, saying, "Well, your mom is right." The associate who was originally helping me then completed the return without any issue. Afterward, I quickly checked out at one shop and headed out since the stores were closing. As I walked toward the door, I could hear the same employee loudly expressing her frustrations, and when she noticed me she immediately stopped and turned away. I completely understand why a business like this needs to have a strict return policy, and I respect that. However, the commentary and assumptions made during the process were unnecessary. A simple, professional interaction would have made the experience much more pleasant.
