Wheaton Mall is your classic, no-frills local mall--and honestly, it does exactly what it needs to…read moredo. They've got all the staples: JCPenneys, Costco, Macy's, Target, H&M, plus smaller stores like Five Below and Bed, Bath and Beyond. The food court is huge and continues to grow, with some older spots being replaced by newer options. I was first introduced to this mall in a pretty unconventional way--at a dance event hosted by Urban Dance Artistry. The space was large enough to host a big crowd and still allow for smaller performance pockets, which showed me how versatile the mall space actually is. As far as cleanliness goes, the mall itself is generally clean and bustling with a very diverse crowd, which I love to see. The only downside? The bathrooms could definitely use some attention. They can be messy and not the freshest-smelling at times. Although I do really like that they have a separate area for kids to wash their hands. I'm not much of a mall shopper these days, and a lot of the stores aren't necessarily places I'd go out of my way for. But as a parent? This place is gold. My son absolutely loves the play area. There's also a paid bounce house spot near it (which he thoroughly enjoyed), and they have the indoor train that rides through the mall--which is basically a core childhood memory waiting to happen. It's also a great spot for teens to meet up at. I love that they have a little photo booth to print out 4 pictures on a strip, very nostalgic vibes. It's also super convenient. The Wheaton train station is right there, but it's also a hub for a lot of buses, making public transit access incredibly easy. On top of that, you've got nearby restaurants, Party City, a grocery store, and plenty of other essentials within walking distance. There's even a CVS Pharmacy nearby. Overall, it's a solid, practical, family-friendly mall. Not luxury, not glamorous--but convenient, affordable, and full of things to do--especially if you have kids. Four stars from me.

I'm going to be honest, I had no idea there was a mall in this highway triangle. I thought the…read morespace between where I-270 and I-495 met had nothing in it. I've only seen the area from the highways that are tree lined. I am quite amazed by how out of touch I was for this area. This mall is quite expansive. The one thing I love about the DMV area is that the malls are still thriving. Not to the point where every single store is filled, but no where near dead mall territory. I had some time to kill before I had to head back home and wanting to pick up some items. Parking here had me. I wasn't sure where would be the best place to park. I ended up in the outdoor lots and didn't even want to mess with the parking structure. As a note, early here means you will encounter a slew of parents with their children in tow. Be careful and mindful in the parking lot as they will be everywhere. The mall had a bit of everything in here. The typical anchors and national chains you would expect to find in a mall. Food court area was jammed with eateries and customers. I opted to not eat here. Would definitely come back. Especially on a lazy day. Good people watching, enough stores to grab whatever you might be thinking of getting, and ample parking.

The food court is always packed with people with many different choices. The restaurants available inside the mall is always interesting. I saw a new Thai takeaway place downstairs near where Claire's used to be. The selections of the store keeps evolving. I had no idea Lululemon moved and has a bigger store now. It's hard to believe that the malls in America are dying when you see how crazy busy it is at the Mall. I couldn't find parking until I parked closer to the old Sears lot. And that was during a weekday well after Christmas and New Year's too. My nickname at work used to be the Mall Rat Haha! I can't wait to discover what new stores are coming and going the next time I return.

We generally only come to this part of the area for the movie theater, so it was cool to see it with such a community event focus!

If you're up for walking, there's a neighborhood with some free parking a few blocks away... just watch the signs for the times. On the square itself, it changes based on the time of year. Sometimes it's an ice rink, sometimes it's a dance class, sometimes it's a bunch of popup vendors, sometimes it's live music... it's quite a blast with all the yummy restaurants surrounding it, that's for sure! When looking at all the shopping and dining options overall, it's quite a diverse selection that yo can pick from, and I'd say there's something for almost everyone. There's a couple cuisines I could pick out that are missing, but otherwise it's definitely a plaza worth visiting if you're in the area. Some of the newer additions include Big Papi's Tacos, Dolan Uyghur, and Dirty Dough.

I was fortunate to NOT have my car towed the day I visited, but have watched as others got ripped off. My advice, SHOP SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!

I am nervous everytime I drive here now to shop, wondering if my car will be there when I get back.

Parking review. Gone are the days of getting a paper ticket…read moreat a Pike & Rose garage or paying cash at a machine. Nowadays, their machine setup is a bit different. I recently took a visit to one of the spots within Pike & Rose and when I rolled into one of their garages to grab a ticket at the entrance, I was caught off guard. Not only was there no button to press for a ticket; I noticed the setup was completely different to when I last saw it (I don't visit very often). The screen prompted me to enter my phone number, but since I was new to this whole setup, I decided to bypass that prompt entirely. It showed me as being anonymous and I noticed a 4-digit code popped up on the screen for me to remember. As I parked, I quickly noted the code and the time I entered. After taking care of things, it was time for me to head out. As I proceeded to leave (ready with the 4-digit code it gave me earlier), and pulled up to the garage exit, I noticed the bar to the gate rose up without me doing anything. So, I left. It wasn't until later I realized it must have scanned my license coming in and leaving. Good to know. I did a little research and found some FAQs located here: https://www.vendpark.io/property/pikeandrose. Visited July 2025

There is shopping at Gap, Sur La Table, LL Bean, Uniqlo, and Blue Mercury. There are movies and tons of place to grab desserts, like Sunday Morning Bakehouse or The Baked Bear. Depending on where you are shopping you can get some good deals or some expensive meals. So,the value depends on where you visit. Service at each of the places I have gone to is good. I could spend a day shopping and eating at Pike and Rose and then, go see a movie. If you haven't stopped by I would give them a try. : )

The store itself is very tiny compared to other dollar stores like Dollar Tree. Many of the items are $1, but many of the other items are worth more than $1. I personally don't understand why a dollar store sells products that are worth more than $1.... There's a variety of products from home goods, party supplies, clothing, beauty supplies, artificial flowers, etc. However, if you go down the street, all the items are $1 and are more name brands (Colgate, Irish Springs, Tide, Betty Crocker, etc) which I think is a better deal. I give them 3 stars because yes, they do have products that are $1 and they're conveniently located, but I've been to better dollar stores where everything was a dollar with a bigger selection.
