Not too many places to eat anymore but hopefully they will add some new ones in the near future. The only issue I have is that the traffic in and out can sometimes get backed up which is annoying. During holiday seasons, they do have a police detail there so it runs a little more smoothly. I hope they add some new stores and restaurants soon just to keep it modern and up-to-date... would love something with outside benches/tables !!

The number and brands of merchants may change with time; however, there is a high level of selection and quality. The stadium and Patriot store provide an excellent sports experience, Traffic is well managed during events. The lots are well maintained and frequently policed by staff. The mall is partially covered providing a cool outdoor place to stroll and shop. Bass Pro shops has a number of events and provides a curated back bog area with a walking/ hiking trail. The Cinemas are located off the main parking lot and have plenty of parking. There are numerous handicapped parking spaces in front close to the entrance. There is also a commuter rail station off the parking lot for rail access to the mall. Chargers for electric vehicles are also present for EV vehicles. Patriot Place is one of the best New England malls and a great site for an event experience. We will definitely return.

There's pretty solid food options too (ranging from fast casual to sit down) and they have a Superlux movie theater too. I suggest parking in the parking garage, and do your best to avoid the parking lots located within middle of the stores since they're almost always full.

the mall (inside) itself really is sad indeed. the last time I went in was a couple years back. i…read morewas curious so I cut through from kohls and did a quick stroll to barnes & noble and back. there were able 5 shoppers in my sight total. in there, i found a dollar store, payless shoes (or equivalent), a cheap jewelry/accessories store (like claire's), a tobacco/lottery/snacks type of corner stand, maybe a haircut or nail place, among a couple other random things. i did remember secretly rejoicing at the fact that the tobacco store stocks cigars, not that i ever went back to get any. i'm giving the place 4 stars not because of the above, but because i'm counting the "outer rim" businesses as part of the mall (they do situate on the premise), also the fact that the management does make an effort to revive the place despite current sadness: jo-ann fabric and petsmart opened this past year, texas roadhouse and "something" fitness joined in a couple years back, and a few more smaller establishments (a battery place, a froyo place) popped up as well. there are also small but helpful changes on the outer roadways made recently to ease/de-tangle mall traffic. numerous crosswalks were added around the lot. they also invited Santa over during the holiday season! i never saw him myself but couldn't help but see the gigantic signs hung around outside, even along route 1. so yeah, management does still care, and that's very commendable in the days and times we live in. the only "complaint" left to make, since ever, is really the fact that the mall/parking lot is not accessible to/from the mcdonald's side. meaning, one can only go in/out by coney street, or route 1 south (from north you'll have to wait at that intersection light, then turn into coney or make a u-ie). small inconvenience, but nothing one can really do about it. parking lot is huge enough to support the patronage though -- mostly to the few brand-name stores (kohls, b&n, old navy, bath & body works, office max, party city, gym, etc) and restaurants (chili's, panera, taco bell, five guys, panda express, texas roadhouse, etc) on the outer rim. the multiple entry/exit points along route 1 s really makes sense too. there was never a problem going in and out, even on weekends and black friday, no matter how long your stay is. overall, this mall is very beneficial to locals and has a reason to stay. i have lived around the area for years and this is my go-to place when a need pops up: from food, books, gifts, supplies, to quick/specific/holiday shopping, i can find it here. this is NOT the type of place one should be looking to make a whole-day family outing out of, nor is this the place to satisfies all needs (though it still kinda does, in smaller scale). for those needs, there are legacy/patriots/providence place(s) at your service. yeah the lack of foot traffic inside the mall is really depressing, but that's for the store owners to worry about, not consumers. i probably overlooked the little play area (with climb-y, crawl-y structures, coin-op cars/horsies) inside last time i was in there. in-laws recently took my child there and he had a blast! my kid was not being trampled to death by tens of other kids, and he could play as long as he wanted without the crowd or elevated noise level which one should come to expect on any playground at peak hours. fewer users also (hopefully) means, relatively cleaner structures. now who is to say there is no upside for a deserted mall? :)

A stroll around the large parking lot is a good way to see what stores are here and browse in each for something to purchase and bring home. The Whole Foods Market is definitely a huge treat for me to walk around then hit it last to find something to cook or snack or enjoy their most tastefully and expertly decorated baked items along with lots of breads to choose from. So Derby Street Shops is like a one stop shopping place. I like that and go home with everything I needed and wanted.

Let me start with the negative: Access. Like most other reviews The Crossings at Smithfield has an…read moreaccess problem with only one road entering and another leaving which can cause major backups and headaches for many people. So much that during certain times of the year, I out right avoid coming here so as I don't have to sit in traffic and/or deal with people who can't handle it and start to develop a road rage-like attitude. Aside from that, the actual grounds and variety of stores here are quite nice. You have the usual Target and Kohls, a Michael's, Home Depot, Barnes and Noble, clothing stores, and Dave's Supermarket. Normally I try and do it all in one swift trip. Buy what I need for the house, over-indulge on some books at the book store followed by a latte. Perhaps finish it off by stopping at Dave's and buying something for dinner. Parking here is a breeze! Plenty of spaces, sure you may need to park and walk, but I enjoy that.
