Bellevue Square Mall is one of the nicer malls in Washington. They have a wide selection of stores and are always adding more! Their food/drink stores are also great; they have a variety of different boba stores, which I love! Every store I walk into, I always feel welcomed! I've never ran into any issues or problems at Bellevue Square. I love how they host events for different cultures/holiday events. Finding parking is always easy! And comparing this place to other malls, there's never been any huge incidents or any violent mishaps like (shootings). Bellevue Square always feels safe! read more

Bellevue Square mall somehow manages to feel both overcrowded and lifeless at the same time. The store selection is incredibly repetitive... just the same upscale yuppy chains over and over so nothing really stands out or feels worth browsing if you're not there to buy generic clothes. On top of that, the layout isn't at all confusing but because everything looks so similar it's surprisingly easy to get turned around and lose your sense of direction. Many of the stores were uncomfortably warm, which made it hard to spend much time inside without wanting to leave. The crowds only make things worse, people seem completely unaware of their surroundings and stand directly behind you, constantly cutting you off or walking straight into you without a second thought. For a place that's supposed to be a premium shopping destination, the overall experience felt chaotic, uncomfortable, and yet boring. In every store, employees kept asking if we needed help, even after we repeatedly said no. Prices were consistently high for no apparent reason, and it was all frustrating enough that we ended up not buying anything at all. One nice thing I can say is that it is very tidy. read more

If you're a shopper or someone who enjoys browsing, this is undoubtedly one of the best places to shop in the entire Seattle Metro area. I particularly frequent Nordstrom and a now defunct Timberland store. The mall also has a variety of restaurants, some of which offer drinks which you can indulge after shopping. While the prices can be a bit high, parking can be challenging at times. The area can get crowded and congested, but it's not overly bad. There are a few bars inside the mall, which is a great addition. However, the bathrooms are always crowded, and you'll likely have to wait a long time. Be mindful of this, especially during the holiday season. The Square also hosts parades and other events during the holidays season as well, so plan accordingly to avoid traffic. Aside from shopping, I also buy a lot of my colognes here. It's definitely one of my favorite places to shop for some of my favorite brands. read more

I love this mall! It's my favorite mall in Washington state. It's clean, the bathroom's are like lounges. If you during the holidays, you get a very esthetically appealing experience. I wish they had a food section instead of the food options spread throughout. The clothing stores are always so clean and with the latest trends. Customer service in all the stores are top notch. It's more on the pricey side, but it has all my favorite stores. read more

I love this mall! There's plenty of parking, lots of shops, and it's pretty good to just walk around inside for exercise if you wanted to walk without being in weather. Recently I realized they also have some great events on weekends that are free or free with rebate; I've done quite a number of their fitness classes! read more

It's a high end old style indoor mall with some very chic stores you won't find usually anywhere. It's perched in the midst of a wealthy non-zombie Seattle area. It's great place to wander during the rain. The mall maps are not intuitive. Give it an hour though, and you'll really need to get back outside...in the rain. read more

One of my favorite shopping places in seattle. Lots of luxury stores and great place to walk around.

It's Halloween and we visited with my G-Daughter dressed up as a "Good Witch" for trick or treating. Was rather surprised that very few establishments had any treats to pass for the kids. My 5 years was happy nevertheless cause her little plastic pumpkins was filled with treats. read more

We got here early enough, so that parking wasn't an issue. The mall is big and clean with a wide variety of retailers. We walked around and checked out some stores. There is also dining options, but no food court. Overall it was a nice place to kill some time. read more

This was my first time going to this mall (yes, I rarely visit Seattle haha, I should more often though!). Anyways, it was during LNY time so there were lots of festivities. If they didn't, I think it would be even better haha meaning, this mall was very spacious overall. It looked fairly clean even though it was packed full of people. I liked the high ceilings and the variety of stores in one location (Washington Square is what I'm comparing it with). There were stores that we don't have in PDX so it was nice to check those stores out (UNIQLO and Pop Mart for example). I also liked how you walk a few blocks down and you get another area to shop and eat, it felt like I was in a 'big city.' HAHA, again, comparing with Washington Square, lol. I would like to stroll around that area more when I have the time~! read more

Originally opened in 1946, Bellevue Square was the first regional suburban shopping center in the Pacific Northwest. It was initially an open-air property, with a massive conversion to an enclosed, super-regional two story mall in 1985. The area became more mixed-use as surrounding properties were bought up and added to the overall experience. Today, the development is called Lincoln Square and consists of 4 million square feet, consisting of two hotels (Hyatt Regency and Westin) and 480,000 square feet of retail and dining and entertainment space. It's a bit surprising that this was done in pieces over such a long period of time. Really well planned. read more

Best mall and best city you can ever go to! My family and I come here every Sunday and we never get tired of their clothing stores, incredible food, and the community outside of the mall. There are numerous stores, restaurants, and places you can go to. I'd recommend searching specific stores online beforehand. The Nordstrom is huge here, and it's a must try to eat at Kizuki Ramen. Service is always amazing, never a line for places, and the value is great especially in the winter when almost every store has a 50-70% off! read more

Old fashioned mall like the ones you remember from back in the 1980s and 1990s. All of the character of ... well downtown Bellevue, as in not any. It always feels stuffy inside. But it does have many of the shops you may be expecting in a mall except the really high-end ones. I avoid it unless absolutely necessary and then get in and out as quickly as possible. read more

Positives: Large parking deck. Plenty of free parking. Great store options. Very spacious. Nicely built and decorated. I like the signage displayed everywhere and the skywalk. Lots of places to eat and shop. Friendly service everywhere. Top notch restaurants and coffee shops. High-end stores. Clean stores. Nicely placed clothing. Beautifully decorated. Cons: I saw a young guy lurking and hiding behind cars in the parking deck. Unsure what he was up to. We were approached by a woman begging for money with a baby in a stroller. Always watch your surroundings but lovely shopping experience here. read more

We went around 7:30 PM on a Friday evening and we still encountered such inconsiderate, rude and stupid people everywhere!!! It's like nobody cares if you're front of them or not. Won't say, "Excuse me," or try to move appropriately. Most of the stores were open and had customers going in and out. Some had special deals and sales going on, which was nice. The mall ain't what is used to be, though. Parking is a mess, layout of the building can be confusing at times when looking for the Sky Bridge and trying to go from one side to the other where the hotels are. Inventory and selection of goods have gone downhill a bit, though. Prices have of course gone up. read more

I think Bellevue Square used to be better before, but indoor malls in general seem to be falling out of favor in the US, especially considering how many stores sell low quality merch now. I used to love this mall and would spend hours here, but now I can't wait to leave when we visit. This mall has a sky glass view that unfortunately turns the mall into a greenhouse (especially the Apple store) during hot summer days (not sure if they have AC, but if they do, you can barely feel it). The good thing is it's clean, staff is mostly friendly, and there's a variety of the usual mall stores. I wouldn't call this place luxury or high-end - it's pretty basic. Maybe it's good for burning a couple hours but you won't find anything unique or exciting here, and a few stores are permanently closing. There's very few food options and barely any seating. They have a large parking structure, and it gets pretty crowded during the holidays. read more

Bellevue Square which is probably considered the head of the "Bellevue Collection" - this includes - Bellevue Square (of course), Lincoln Square (down the block) and Bellevue Place which I guess is development, leasing and all that real estate stuff. Bellevue square though is mainly a high-end mall or at least it looks that way. I can't say I've ever seen a Canada Goose store in person until coming here, well except in NYC. Other featured stores Anthropologie, Chanel, Burberry, Casper and more that I wouldn't expect to be at a run of the mill mall. Bellevue square is fairly big with a variety of shops that I personally would go broke at but it's cool to window shop them. Food options aren't great here. I went to Great State Burger and Panda Express and was let down by them both (See my reviews for each of them). The Macy's that resides here looks well kept up so that's a good reason to come as the Square's flagship. read more

Had time to spare so decided to stop in and check out this mall. Pretty decent with plenty of the standard mall shops that you usually see. It was nice to see the mall decorated and put items on display for the lunar new years. Enjoyed walking around the mall, wasn't too crowded. There is a parking garage for the mall as well. Plenty of resturants around the mall area too. read more

I thought malls were a thing of the past--most of my childhood malls are going out of business--but I've got to hand it to Bellevue Square. Their upscale and modern selection of shops keeps it feeling fresh and relevant. Bonus points to the stores that greeted my dog with treats (a definite win in my book). Minus points, though, for the horrendous parking situation and the overwhelming crowds that leave me needing to decompress after just a short visit. read more

Bellevue Square Mall is known for its upscale shopping experience, offering a wide range of high-end retailers and luxury brands. The mall is well-maintained, featuring a clean, modern design and an inviting atmosphere. Visitors like us often appreciate its diverse dining options, from casual eateries to fine dining restaurants. Additionally, Bellevue Square is conveniently located in downtown Bellevue, making it easily accessible and a central hub for shopping, dining, and entertainment in the area. Its family-friendly environment, with amenities like a children's play area, adds to its appeal. On Thursday night, it is sweet to date my mom read more

I've never reviewed a mall before but I have to say; I love Bellevue Square! We go all the time since we don't live very far away. The mall has a great assortment of stores, and it's always safe and clean. The parking is so much easier than other malls, plus it's all free! There are plenty of affordable food spots, as well as more upscale restaurants, and tons of nearby stores outside the mall. They're always adding new shops and updating the place, which I love. The seasonal decorations, like for Lunar New Year and Christmas, are always such a nice touch too! read more

Great experience, expensive location. Enjoyed the free parking and good eats. Lots of stores would go back to explore more but it was getting late read more

Hit the mall at 11:30 on a Sunday. Great time to go. Lots of parking close to the entrances, customer service at JCrew and Nordstrom were generous and helpful. Haven't been here in awhile and I had a great shopping experience. Found a lot of cool stuff in the second floor ladies departments. There's a new coffee place called Milk at Nordstrom which I loved. read more

Bellevue Square - Shop till you drop! - Shopping Centers Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

I mean this mall is the cream of the crop here in Washington. The people dresses nicer and they're not so grungy. Shops are on a higher end compared to other malls around the area - but not too crazy where your black card's gonna cringe. They don't really have a food court but have some quick food options for when your kids scream that they're hungry or thirsty. I feel safe taking my kids here to go shopping. Parking garage is next to the mall and it's complimentary. It's a win-win in my book! read more

I can't remember the last time I visited a mall. Happy to report that this mall is awesome! A three story shopping extravaganza with plenty of places to sit and relax, I'd that is your jam. There is even a Tesla store, inside the mall. Very cool. So many specialty stores along with big names department stores like Macy's. I found parking easily and noticed security driving and walking through the parking lot. During an excessive heat wave it was a really nice break to be a hugely air conditioned place. A few stores I can't wait to come back and make purchases at are: Ann Taylor, Black & White, Bare Minerals makeup, and of course Royce's Specialty Chocolate. If you love a good mall, you'll love this one. Happy Yelping. read more

I don't know if what I heard is true that it's the biggest mall in USA or Washington state. As it's definitely not big. It's a normal size mall. But super nice and clean. I love the fact there is security and police presence. Now days it's scary to be anywhere sadly. I have no complaints about anything about this mall at all. I live the stores, love the information desk as they are super sweet and helpful. The only thing I was sad was seeing MK closing. I am obsessed with MK for my everyday look. But they do have my other every day look which is Kate spade. So I am okay for now. Prices are normal like any other malls. They have good selection of stores so I guess it's a good place to shop for anyone from your family or even for gifts. I do like they celebrate different religious holidays but I am sad I don't see any Muslim holiday being celebrated when they have a lot of customers who are Muslims. Oh yeah if you aren't really desperate to go in the weekend don't go as it gets super crazy busy. For me I get overwhelmed from being in crowded places so I definitely get anxious when I am there in the weekend. The rest of the week it's busy but not that busy. Enjoy it :-) P.s try the gluten free Mac and cheese from the cafe in the lower floor a cross from the elevator as it's so so delicious read more

Very Poor customer service from Ira in Alterations today. I called ahead ahead to make sure someone was available, drove in 45 minutes to have a formal dress altered - the same dress I had altered last year from Nordstroms. Since I had $200 worth of free alterations due to my account, I expected the same this year. She refused to honor this policy. Then she tried to charge me $120 to alter the dress, after she originally quoted me $60. Last year the people in alterations we worked with were exceptional. It is unfortunate that the customer service at Nordstroms has become so poor. read more

I've been to Bellevue Square a couple of different times but usually it was more of a goal oriented task to get to a certain place and a thorough walk through of the mall didn't take place for quite a few years until recently by Steve and myself. When we went here a couple of weekends ago I went in with the expectation to see a Versace store and things that are really upper crust because Bellevue is a very wealthy city with Microsoft and other tech companies here and all. But instead of upper crust it was more high end. Don't get me wrong. This is the most higher class mall in the Seattle area but not exactly the stores you may see in the Forum Shops in Las Vegas or Rodeo Drive. But further thought told me that Bellevue is more business oriented rather than vacation oriented where one bloats and indulges with food and shopping and after that thought dawning on me it made sense where store after store here had monochromatic colors for their clothing which in the end was quite banal and looked like you are at least dressed for the gentrified cookie cutter. There are some stores that I do associate upper crust here like Kate Spade and a few others and a few stores that we enjoyed like a Pacific Northwest souvenir store, a chocolate boutique, the Psycho Bunny clothing store and an ice cream shop. After we were finished at Bellevue Square we went to another area of town and stumbled across Louis Vuitton and a Gucci store at another shopping center called The Shops At The Braven so that definitely requires a stop on another trip as those were kind of the stores I was expecting to see at Bellevue Square. Perhaps then I can see how people of Bellevue lavish with money growing out of their ears since this indeed is the city where prospective home buyers will offer cold, hard cash for a home that is over a million dollars. Aside from the shopping and browsing the mall looks healthy and robust which isn't a huge surprise and very few shop vacancies were spotted by myself as well as looking very clean and modern on the inside. The outside of the building looks aged but that is far from a deterrent from bringing in throngs of shoppers. read more

I walked around Bellevue Square and Lincoln Square yesterday with a companion. Wow, this place is THRIVING! I haven't walked around any mall in about 5 years now, and I haven't walked around Bell Square specifically in almost 20 years! My ex-boyfriend's parents live in Clyde Hill, and his Mom (amazing woman) and I used to shop at Bell Square together way back then. From what I remember, this place hasn't changed much in almost 20 years. It's bright and expansive, with lovely flooring, hundreds of stores containing almost anything that you could possibly think of to buy, and many comfortable and not-so-comfortable seating areas throughout the mall (which is SO nice, because this mall is enormous and we did lots of walking, so it was good to sit down from time to time!). I strongly preferred sitting down in the comfy, soft arm chairs that were placed in the middle of some of the wide mall walk ways, but I only took photos of 2 of the hard bench seating areas. But there are super comfy chairs (that I sat in occasionally to rest for a few minutes) throughout this mall, which I was very happy about. There is also a lot of lovely greenery - trees and plants - near a lot of the seating areas. Very nice. The Elevator near the Beecher's Handmade Cheese Store is awesome. I love those see-through glass elevators. I sat and watched it go up and down for a few minutes. My initial reason for going to Bell Square yesterday after so many years is that my nephew just turned 21 (wow, time flies) and I had been texting with my Sister's first husband's third wife, Sharon (I like her more than I like my Sister, haha... another amazing woman) and I was asking Sharon what she thought I should get for my nephew, Gavin. Sharon texted that Gavin is hard to buy for and that they usually just buy him a gift certificate for The Lego Store or GameStop, since he enjoys gaming and building with Legos. Gavin is in the US Air Force, and he isn't stationed locally, but he enjoys building with Legos during his visits home. So, after a quick search for Lego Stores on the East Side, I saw that the Bellevue Square Lego Store was the closest one to where I live. I bought Gavin a $300 Gift Certificate to the Lego Store for his Birthday. The Lego Store employees were super friendly, welcoming, chatty (but not too chatty) and helpful, as were the employees at most of the other stores that I went to in this mall. I also enjoy building with Legos from time to time. I bought myself some Legos, too. Since it's really not a true Artemis yelp review without a completely irrelevant tangent, I would like to let all of you out there in yelp land know that I built a BEAUTIFUL Lego church a few years ago (a half MOC - My Own Creation - and a half Harry Potter Lego set that was never intended to be used to build a Lego Church, haha) but my cat destroyed the church. I rebuilt it, but then the movers destroyed it, and thus far it has remained in ruins. I decided that it would be fun to have an afternoon of retail therapy, and it was uplifting and relaxing for me to walk around this mall. Many of the mall employees were wearing masks (the Lego Store employees were wearing the most adorable bright yellow masks, to match the bright yellow store), but other than that, you'd never know that this mall had weathered a global pandemic at all. We visited this mall on a Thursday afternoon, and it was super busy. I would guess that there were thousands of customers in this mall yesterday, and the parking lot near the Lego Store (also near the Nordstrom, which is a larger landmark) was almost completely full. In this mall's parking lot, we mostly saw Porsches, Ferraris, BMWs, Mercedes, Audis, etc. I'm not a car person (I don't really care what I or anyone else drives), and I actually hate driving, I strongly prefer to be driven. With many of my friends, if they are willing to drive me to wherever we are going, I will happily treat them to the experience. As long as the car gets from point A to point B, that is all that I really want for it to do. (I do currently own an Audi, but it's a long story as to why, and most of my cars throughout my life have not been in the aforementioned league.) But, even I couldn't help but notice some of these cars. My favorite was the glistening white (it looked like it had been washed about 5 minutes before driving into the lot) Porsche Turbo. I don't think I've ever seen a pure white Porsche before. So pretty! Anyway, Bell Square was hopping yesterday, and I enjoyed walking around and shopping there for a few hours yesterday afternoon. We went to Lincoln Square too (Paper Source in Lincoln Square North, and Woods Coffee and the Container Store in Lincoln Square South), so I'll be reviewing Lincoln Square separately at some point. The stores I patronized are: The Lego Store (my reason for being there), Lush, Jamba, Fireworks, and Beecher's Handmade Cheese. I will most likely be reviewing each of these stores later. read more

I escaped unscathed. Bellevue Square was the mall of choice that my wife and daughter decided to visit during a recent road trip vacation. It's like we don't have enough malls here in rainy Southern California. This mall had it all. If it is shopping you want they have everything from A to Z. They have high end stores. They have stores that regular people can go into. If you want food, they got it. Luckily, my wife and daughter didn't find anything. All I did was burn gasoline in my car to get here. Other than gas, no money was spent at the mall itself. read more
