Ballerup Center is arguably the largest shopping mall of the area and whatever merchandise you're…read morelooking for, this is where you're most likely to find it. The selection of stores is broad and covers all price ranges. Unfortunately the layout of the place is rather confusing and not very customer friendly to the point where you start to wonder what the architect was smoking when they built it. There are map-posts at the escalators and other key locations though, which helps a lot. Parking is no issue since the entire roof is one large free parking area. Even during the busiest of times you'll have no problem finding a space for your precious vehicle. Time is limited to three hours and you must have a parking disc in the car set to the time of your arrival (if you don't have one you can pick one up for free at the center information desk). And whatever you do, don't forget that disc! The place is monitored by a very aggressive private parking company whose primary business model is handing out fines, and due to the size of the place they have a controller on site all day. At the time of writing the fine is 650 danish kroner. The center is conveniently situated right next to the Ballerup pedestrian street where you'll find further shopping opportunities, including some specialty stores and various banks. It's also an integral part of the Ballerup Train Station and you can basically grab an elevator directly to the platform. Another useful neighbour is the Ballerup Bus Station which you can reach by escalator from the mall. This is also where you'll find the library and the post office btw. The good: A wide variety of shopping opportunities, plenty of free parking, excellent connections to all modes of public transportation. The bad: Confusing layout, ugly, park-sharks are handing out stiff fines at the tiniest parking infraction.

They call this a mall. And I guess in the broadest definition of the word, that's correct. As in,…read morethis is a collection of shops in common, shared area. It's really more of a mini-mall, and even that's generous. The whole place is pretty dismal, and not very inviting. And the collection of shops is your usual high street brands: H&M, a sporting goods chain, a men's clothes chain, a women's clothes chain, a Matas, and so on. If you live in the area, it's pretty convenient to have these shops in your neighbourhood, and it has one of the city's few large hardware stores, which is pretty much my only reason for coming here.

I like the centre because it is not too big so you don't spend all day there. They also a…read morecollection of the shops and restaurants I prefer like 42Raw, where you can sit outside right by the water.

As someone here said before; If you've seen one mall, you've seen them all…read more I'm sure this is a fine mall for the people who live close by, but there are definitely better malls out there. It seems the new 3rd floor is mostly dedicated to stores that only rich people can go in. I might be wrong, but they look so expensive I don't dare to go in. There's just too many clothing stores to be honest. No mall needs a billion clothing stores. There's 1 bookstore and as far as I remember 2 electronics/entertainment stores, which are pretty much the only stores I go in to. There's however also a very big Føtex, which is super nice, and right in front of that there's an escalator leading down to the metro, which is pretty great. But to be quite honest, this isn't really the mall for me. If you love clothing and don't care about 'Den danske hygge', this might be the mall for you.

This place is more like a collection of warehouses than an actual shopping mall. The location is…read morehowever spot on, since it's next to Herlev S-train station. You've heard all about those outlets / big warehouses that are located in obscure places like Ringsted or Næstved or what do I know and found out that it's extremely difficult to get there if you don't have a car, well this time Herlev is no longer obscure location in my eyes because (unfortunately) that's where my office is located. That said, this place got most of your shopping needs covered if you want to go to one-stop-shop. From supermarket (Netto, Føtex) to sports (Nike outlet, Sportsmaster, sport 24 outlet). From electronics (Power, El giganten) to pet supplies. They also have a cinema building too and some standard cafe (cafe A, Bone's and the like). Come here for the shopping, or the cinema and not for the culinary delights, and if you're nowhere near Herlev in the first place, maybe you shouldn't bother anyway. Most of the shops here are also available closer to town, perhaps not in the same location, but more convenient nonetheless for us mortals who don't own a car.
