They are deep cleaning the store! Yay!…read more This store has been a mess the entire time I have been going here, with merchandise just heaped on shelves like a child tried to clean up their room by picking up everything from the floor and dumping it onto the shelf regardless of what it is and if it actually belonged there. However, the last few times I have been there, it has been obvious that they are emptying the shelves aisle by aisle, cleaning out the old merchandise, and reorganizing the shelves to make them neat and tidy and properly stocked! This store is usually well-stocked and has a very good selection of items, so having it well organized will be a huge improvement. Whoever is in charge, good work.

I still genuinely love shopping at this store--it's my go-to and the only convenient, walkable spot…read morewhere I can grab last-minute essentials since I don't drive. Because of my schedule, I often rely on making it there right before closing. That's why it was so frustrating to see the new police officer working September 12, 2026 around 7:45 PM turn away about 17 to 20 people (including myself) who were trying to get in about 15 minutes before the store actually closed. I've frequently been able to enter 5 to 15 minutes before closing in the past without any issues. Turning away that many customers is a huge hit to business, and honestly, the workers are there getting paid to work until closing time anyway--they want their paychecks to reflect that they worked right up until the doors shut. Moving forward, I really hope management speaks with this new security officer so regular customers aren't locked out early.

I looked this one up online and decided to go by and omg do I wish I had stayed home!! The bathrooms were deplorable and made me want to throwup, the floors were nasty and looked like they haven't been swept and mopped I'm years and they had the audacity to try and sell people merchandise in this place. I didn't even want to breath the air in that place, let alone buy something. This place needs to be demolished, extremely nasty! The owners should be ashamed of themselves!

If you value your safety, you will avoid this particular stretch of downtown. There are third…read moreworld countries that are safer than this (seriously). The metro mall is similar to a small indoor flea market type of setup, with a small variety of different mom and pop businesses in it, mostly catering to the urban scene downtown. It's never been a "good" area, but these days it's pretty ridiculous. The last time I was there 6 people tried to bum money off of me and one guy swore I fathered his last wives baby (?!?). I've been told by City workers that the Mayor allegedly tells folks to "steer" tourists complete away from this area and more toward the Aquarium/Park area a few blocks away. No city leader has ever seemed to really try to tackle the problem. I guess they figure if they keep places like this the way they are, they attract people who would otherwise venture into those tourist areas and make the City look bad. As someone else said though, the security manager is INCREDIBLE - a no B.S. type of Robocop kind of guy who will kick the ghetto queens and thieves out like a sack of potatoes, even using his stun gun if need be (there are videos online of this - wonderful). We need 1000 more of him throughout downtown, that's all I can say. He deserves a metal. Anyway - not much a "review", but the fact is, there's little reason for everyday people to go to the Metro Mall. It serves a sub-niche of clientele, which imo does not include conventioneers or tourists; you have other options. Unless you like to practice your survival skills.

Tried walking around the corner to this place after dark. Tried going down Mills street. I realized as soon as I turned the corner that I wasn't even going to make it to the store with my wallet and intestines intact. I tried going around the long way on the busier streets and actually made it within view of the front door. The two young gentlemen loitering at the front made it clear that 11.39 was the best deal I was gonna get for water and soda tonight. I returned to the hotel and happily paid it. I was glad to end the night with the same number of holes in my body that I started with. Saving a couple bucks isn't worth getting mugged or shot.

I've been going to the bookstore since I was in college and they always have the popular titles and the classics. I went in recently looking for a copy of Tony Browder's 'Nile Valley Contributions to Civilization' (btw - never loan books with the intention of getting them back). They did not have it in stock, but quickly called a 'competitor', determined they had the book, and directed me there. that tells you something about how they conduct business. And unlike the members of the church that wear red and black to the Sunday services, you only need green when you visit the Culture Center. Go here and buy something to raise your consciousness.
