kvadrat is one of the largest shopping malls in norway and the largest one in the area. it doesn't…read moresay too much if you're used to the supermalls of the united states, but it's a useful one-stop-shopping area. and being indoors, it's good when the weather isn't very good for walking in downtown stavanger n such.
kvadrat has most of the franchise clothing stores available in norway as well as home goods stores, electronics, music/movie shops and obs, helgø, asian foodstore, middle eastern shop, and the wine monopoly. as far as restaurants and eateries, there's not much to recommend personally. there's a few bakeries, cafes, hot dog/ice cream stands, dolly dimples crap pizza, a chinese restaurant (seems to be consistently busy for lunch, but i don't know why because the food isn't good at all), mexicana tex-mex'ish style food which is probably the most edible warm-food-joint in the mall unless you just want to grab a sandwich or pastry from the bakeries.. an italian restaurant is in the works so we'll just have to wait and see how that place stands up to the rest.
for people with kids, there's a place you can either leave your kids at for them to play or you can play with them. they can also host kid's parties as well.
