Summit Mall in Fairlawn, Ohio is located just outside of Akron. Given that some malls are declining…read morein numbers with businesses leaving the malls, Summit appears to be doing pretty well. It's is a good mall. I visited on the last Saturday of March 2026 and during the first weekend in May 2026 for business. PARKING -- There are alot of free parking options outside at the parking lot. SHOPPING -- Plenty of shops to choose from such as J.Crew, Victoria's Secrets, Yankee Candle, Kopper Popper (popcorn store), Apple (foe cell phones, headphones, and laptops), Auntie Anne's (pretzels), etc. FOOD -- There is a food court here that has about 5 different type of restaurants. I noticed Sbarro (pizza), Charley's Philly Steaks (Philly cheesesteak sandwiches), and Asian Chao (Chinese food). I've tried food from Asian Chao which was good - I got rice, some vegetables, and I believe chicken in a to-go plastic container. If you live in the area then visit Summit Mall. There are activities for children (a playground inside) which is probably what is keeping the mall alive considering that online shopping is on the rise. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 78/250 total reviews in 2026 - 919 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 13 May 2026

28 December 2018…read more I've come here plenty of times to shop in the Fall of 2017 but not recently because I don't need to buy anything. I've been to the Marshalls store, Dressbarn for work clothes and I have also gone to LensCrafters for an eye Doctor appointment. There are other stores here too including Target, Kohls, Famous Footwear, etc. Also, Cox and Sprint are located here for all your mobile/phone and internet/cable needs. There is an AMC movie theatre here too although it is not actually part of Westgate since it is in a separate strip mall directly west of Westgate. I do wish there were more stores here but who am I kidding? I don't shop that much these days so this mall provides the basics....lol. If you are looking for more stores and/or top designers then head over to the Crocker Park mall or Beachwood mall. The parking lot here is huge to accommodate all the cars coming in and out of the mall so you won't have a problem finding parking. Overall, this is a decent mall. *** - 201 total Yelp reviews. - I have written 155 Yelp reviews in 2018.

I think the potholes in the parking lot prepares you for this mall. It is dying…read more We came at 2 pm on a Sunday. The food court had 2 people, that hallway and the main hallway had 10 people that I could see. The 2 of us, the 2 in the food court, a mom, Dad and little kid, a janitor and 2 more barely visible. Most stores were closed or empty. Pennys was open but I dont like Pennys. If you have your heart set on a particular store, I would call in advance. We were going to Bath and Body Works. I was worried but it was open. Oh there was a small live band playing their heart out near the food court. They were decent but I felt bad for them. The mall was empty. No one was there to enjoy them. The mall itself was clean. But at 2pm on a Sunday, a prime shopping time, at least 40% of stores were closed for the day. I remember back in the day when Kauffmann's and Macy's were there and still took pride in their store, this mall was bustling. Not anymore. It is sad.

There is only one anchor left of the four it had when it opened. Lazarus has become a hospital. About half of the mall is now hospital. It's an interesting concept. There is a JC Penney open; granted in a reduced footprint. There is less than one corridor of mall left. There are two others that are barren storefronts. Worth a check back to see how long this incarnation survives.

Its full of successful stalls of many well known mall shops you have come to know and expect - like your Spencer's , Hot Topic, Bodywork's, Macy's, Claire's, Build-A-Bear, and many more. There are 100+ stores currently operating here, and a large variety of dinner and desert options at the food court. I have never had a bad experience here. It's also worth noting that its a secure, safe, and friendly place.

A Lowe's for the yard and home. Office Max and Kohl's near the Target. A Spirit Of Halloween has found a perfect place here seasonally. And a Five Below is on the way. In a separate section near the front, you can find many food options: Pulp Juice & Smoothies, Menchie's, Way Back Burgers, Beef o' Brady's, and Antonio's Pizza. There's a great clips that I frequent and a more local salon too. A Planet Fitness for that workout fix and a Petco. Across the way is Huntington Bank and a Jiffy Lube is on the way. You can truly find about everything you could want or need here. And get a good walk in while you're at it.
