    This mall is such a weird place. It has a weird vibe. It never seem to got totally off ground and…read morebesides the restaurants and the special events that they do here from time to time...I don't know anyone that comes here just to shop. It's linked to the Waverly Hotel so I suppose the hotel people come here. But I will say one thing the shops have super weird hours. I came recently on a Saturday and half the place was closed....I mean what retailer closes on a busy Saturday?

It's also directly connected to the Renaissance Atlanta Waverly Hotel & Convention Center. I'm sad to say this mall is more of an afterthought. Unless one is seeking a particular restaurant or retailer, the real reason this mall gets business is because of hotel guests and convention goers. The mall definitely looks like it's seen its better days as there are many vacant, abandoned, and empty storefronts. I've visited the mall regularly since 2008 for the annual AWA convention. The mall is packed during the convention and the limited food court eateries sometimes get overwhelmed. The food court is small and includes businesses like Subway and China Sun Express (Americanized Chinese takeout food). I have visited the mall on regular, non-convention days to eat at some of the restaurants (e.g. Big Chow Grill) and, aside from the restaurants, the place feels dead. Other sit-down restaurants at the mall include Buckhead Pizza Co. and Jocks & Jills Sports Grill. The shops and retailers have a boutique feel to them. I think these are mostly local businesses as none of the stores struck me as popular or mainstream. If you go upstairs to the Cobb Galleria Centre, there's a covered footbridge which connects the building to the parking lot of Cumberland Mall across the street. It's also puts you out near the Sheraton Suites Galleria hotel. Since the mall is a part of Cobb Galleria, it also shares the same parking garages. The spaces are free and plentiful.

    Vinings Jubilee has been around for as long as I can remember, since I first moved to Atlanta in…read more2000. I searched through my Yelp reviews and have eaten at more restaurants here than I thought. I still remember my first dining experience here was at La Paz, now closed. I also had a rare birthday outing here at SOHO in 2017. You'll see another Yelper who reviewed this place, former Yelp Atlanta Community Manager Benjamin G on 4/27/2015, had "been up to this shopping plaza for a few different things over the past year." I know what two of them were: One was to meet up with me for lunch at Cafe at Pharr. Two was to host a Yelp Elite Event, "Spring Family Dinner" at Paces & Vine on 4/28/2015: https://www.yelp.com/events/elite/ESj2xs6IMW4TTiyZI5yPKQ. Below is a list of restaurants I've been to at Vinings Jubilee, along with a couple quick thoughts on each. You can follow the links to see each restaurant's Yelp page where I've also left a review. * Another Broken Egg Cafe https://www.yelp.com/biz/another-broken-egg-cafe-vinings-2 An OK breakfast, brunch, and lunch chain. Not bad. * Cafe at Pharr https://www.yelp.com/biz/cafe-at-pharr-atlanta-4 Local chain of cafe-restaurants serving healthy, light fare. Good. * La Paz Restaurante (now permanently closed) https://www.yelp.com/biz/la-paz-restaurante-atlanta-2 Later rebranded as Guaco Joe's, this was an average Americanized Mexican restaurant. * Noche (now permanently closed) https://www.yelp.com/biz/noche-vinings-atlanta Local, popular tapas chain, Noche was part of Tom Catherall's Here to Serve restaurant group which closed all restaurants in October 2015. * Paces & Vine https://www.yelp.com/biz/paces-and-vine-atlanta One of the best restaurants in Vinings, in my opinion. Great for a romantic date or group dining. * SOHO https://www.yelp.com/biz/soho-restaurant-atlanta Old-school, nice American restaurant. Not bad. * Stockyard Burgers & Bones https://www.yelp.com/biz/stockyard-burgers-and-bones-atlanta New-school burger joint that expanded from Stockyard's original location next to Marietta Square. OK. As for the Vinings Jubilee shopping center itself, it's nice. It's outdoors and it's designed to look like a collection of classy, old, white and brick Southern homes. I think that's the best way I can describe it. The ambiance is charming and quaint. It's got a bit of an upscale feel to it with restaurants like the aforementioned Paces & Vine and SOHO, along with an assortment of boutique shops and offices. That said, it's home to big chains too such as Banana Republic, Cold Stone Creamery, and CVS Pharmacy. Vinings Jubilee is located in the heart of Vinings, just inside the Perimeter (ITP), close to both I-285 exit 18 (Paces Ferry Road - Vinings) and 41 (Cobb Parkway) just south of Cumberland Boulevard. While this is a nice shopping center, it isn't a mall or destination like Atlantic Station or Avalon where you'd generally go to shop/browse and hang out/walk around. It's more of a place you'd go to if you're looking for or headed to a specific restaurant, retailer, or office, if that makes any sense. Note: Yelp is weird. At one point, this listing for Vinings Jubilee changed to "Boardroom Salon for Men - Vinings Jubilee." I submitted a correction and thankfully, the moderators approved it.

    Atlanta and it's surrounding towns are so interesting. This place reminded me of the mystical town…read morein "Big Fish" and Celebration, FL. It's very picturesque and has an old early twentieth century charm about it. All the buildings match the aesthetic, from restaurants to drug stores. There's lots of greenery and sidewalks. I would have loved to explore it more. Driving up I passed a lot of joggers and even bumped into someone I know just finishing up a jog. It's very beautiful here.

    This mall quite literally almost has everything across three levels of shopping and has some great…read moreanchor stores too, including Neiman Marcus. The only reason I gave it four stars was because of how they handle parking here by blocking off so much parking, which is now reserved for valet so they can charge you. Which I think is absolutely absurd when there's ample ample parking at the mall, but because they block it off, there's literally almost no parking at the mall. With the size of this mall, I would expect all parking to be fully open to anyone and everyone who wants to come in here and park and shop. What is especially great about the mall is that it has stores that I have never seen anywhere in the Midwest area for example Sandro and Maje. So glad I was able to walk into those stores and see their product line and this is the first time I've done it outside of Europe Anything you could ever want you can find it at the mall so please come here if you're ever in need of anything and it's hectic on the weekends as expected, but the place is fantastic!!!

    Lennox Mall has everything--great stores, good variety, definitely a place you can spend hours (and…read moremoney ). BUT... the food court? Yeah, that part needs a serious intervention. I saw not one, not two, but THREE roaches casually living their best life like they pay rent. In the food court. Where people eat. Absolutely not. Love the shopping options, hate the unexpected "extra guests." Do better with cleanliness, because that really ruined the experience for me

    I've been to this Nordstrom Rack a few times. I realized after our last visit that I hadn't written…read morea review for this location, so here it is. My wife likes this store. In general, she says she always finds something that's good quality and a good value, and customer service is good. She described Nordstrom Rack as, "like a higher-end T.J. Maxx." Some examples of items she's purchased here include Stuart Weitzman shoes (her wedding shoes; they're beautiful), Madewell sweaters and T-shirts (lots of T-shirts), a French Connection sweater, a Theory dress (one of my favorites; she's worn it to my company's holiday party and to one of her company's events), and NEST New York scented candles (they smell good). Another reason she likes Nordstrom Rack is because she can return both Nordstrom Rack and regular Nordstrom items. Convenient. During our last visit, employee Marquis was fantastic. At checkout, my wife didn't know her Nordstrom credit card expired. Marquis got her on the phone with someone who helped her take care of everything. She was still able to get her Nordy Club points and Notes (loyalty rewards). This Nordstrom Rack is located in Buckhead, just off Georgia 400 Exit 2, near Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza. It's in Buckhead Station, a two-story shopping center. On the weekends, Buckhead Station gets crowded and there are longer lines at Nordstrom Rack. During peak times, I suggest parking on the lower level where there is plenty of parking and no congestion. This Nordstrom Rack opened in 2010. It's the only Nordstrom Rack inside the perimeter.

    This location is a little bit overstuffed. It's sort of hard to get around and see things. Just…read moremessy and a bit overstimulating. I do find some gems occasionally but you have to sort of hunker down and dig in almost like your thrifting. Also the parking lot is very difficult just a heads up.

    I love coming to the mall due to its proximity to Lennox Mall. However, the biggest difference is…read morethis Small tends to be a lot more of the higher end stores and brands. Here too similar to Lennox there's a lot of parking that has been prohibited for anyone to park for free and rather it's being reserved for you to pay for valet parking. So if you're lucky, you'll find a good spot. At this mall, there is a sax Fifth Avenue but there is no Neiman Marcus. This mall also has the Hermes store which was the real reason for the visit. However, it's proximity to the Nobu hotel and the Noble restaurant is also very convenient. I will say this place is filled with security, which is really impressive and it is sad though that there are quite a few stores in here that are still empty looking for tenants. But if you're looking for super high-end and Neiman Marcus and Lennox Malk doesn't meet your criteria drive a little bit further less than a mile away and you are exactly where you need to be. I loved being here. The ambience is fantastic. I just wish they had more choices for food and more stores in the empty spaces.
