On this nice Saturday, I decided to go to the mall for a couple of stores…read more It was a great day after being locked down with bouts of snow and ice. This mall is still viable and family friendly. Parking is hard for those needing disability parking as its not many spots close. I enjoyed the day eventhough the escalators in the mall seemed to be out of service moving folks to department stores to go up or down.

Nepalese momos (the chicken chily moms are really spicy but was very good next time will try the pan fried ones ) The restaurants are more on the pricier side in my opinion for fast food but I think the two places I mentioned are worth it. Will try others and update my reviews but do think some of the other places weren't worth the price point.

There are so many things I love about Savage Mill. It's cute and cozy, and the mill itself is also…read morevery cool and historic! I have to say, the local businesses here have really impressed me each time I come! I have tried Boyd Cru Wines (delicious!!), More Than Java Cafe (pls get the jerk chicken omelette!), and have peered through Cherie Bridal (looking for a dress soon!). Every experience I have had here has been warm and welcoming. There's a large selection of stores, and they also seem to host a market here on weekends with some more local vendors! For the holidays, they have a cute Christmas setup and a meet Santa station. I also feel everything I've bought here has been fairly priced. I just got some Christmas presents for my mom, including locally made pottery for less than I usually see on Etsy. The food options here are great, and it's a cozy spot for families and couples! Every time I come, I tell myself I'm going to come back more frequently. Just visit. You'll find something you like!

I came to this mall to stroll and see if I can find some good buys from stores inside…read more Parking can be treaty depending on the day and time. It has been a steady crowd inside the mall. However, a lot of the higher end stores has closed up. I must have a relax mind to come into this mall as it can be overwhelming with some mall guests and crowds. Today it was very mellow for it all. There are eateries around the mall with some anchor restaurants. There are relaxing massage chairs placed around the mall, as well as bathroom in the different sections of the mall all numbered access identified.

3.28.26 I used to…read morereally enjoy coming to this mall, but in recent years it has noticeably declined. Many well-known retailers have closed or are in the process of closing, and they're being replaced by lesser-known stores that don't offer the same level of quality. Two retailers that are closing are Eddie Bauer Outlet and Saks Off 5th. Parking has also become a major challenge. The lots are consistently overcrowded, and it's not unusual to spend a significant amount of time circling just to find a space. During our visit today, my husband and I arrived around 5:15 PM, only to find that a shooting had just occurred. Patrons were evacuating, and traffic quickly became extremely congested as everyone attempted to leave at once. I do hope the remaining retailers I enjoy continue to stay. Unfortunately, one of my go-to stores, Banana Republic Factory, no longer carries petite sizes. I was totally bummed. On a more positive note, I did notice signage for their rewards program, Simon+, which seems like a nice incentive for frequent shoppers. More information is available at https://plus.simon.com.

We enjoyed a bite to eat at Sakura. You can't go wrong with their Teriyaki Chicken, Rice and Steamed Veggies combo that comes with a drink. The plus side of the Town Centre is the AMC Movie Theater. It's in the center end of the Town Centre. The shopping centers overall is good. There are a variety of stores, food, the movie theater and a few necessity spots for example a Dentist. Some may say why put one in a shopping centre but I've seen this more often than you may think. It doesn't hurt for convenience, so I don't have any negative feedback on that.

I'm pretty sure I went to the Buffalo Wild Wings here many years ago but didn't realize it was in this shopping center! It's busy getting in and out of here!

The 'main drag' meanders and snakes through the center with parking and stores on both sides, then makes a sharp left.....and then more meandering. Do not try to make a left turn out of any parking area without having about 20 minutes to wait for a break in the traffic coming from both directions. I try not to come here, but needed a book that I did not have time to order online. And the bookstore? That's another review, and not a good one either.

I love it only $32 dollars since they have an extra 25 % percent off on red tag clearances! So i was very happy about that. The young man ho helped me with my return ( a drss that is full of sequins) he was so nice but sadly i didn't get his name. Also shoutout to Naya! She was phenomenal. Amazing customer service. Very agreeable and so very nice! She checked us out since we purchased new items from the store. She had such a great aura to her that she was so lovely and it made my night, especially it is almost closing and she still had a lot of energy i love that for her!

This Nordstrom Rack is tucked away in the rear sort of the rear of Columbia Crossing…read more Parking is plentiful, just not directly in front. Its normally quiet and steady customer traffic. Ive never had any issues coming to this location. I didnt find what I went for but I definitely found some nice clothing articles and flat shoes. Im not a fan of looking/searching through miscellaneous racks of clothes. It just annoys me. I managed to do such today for a few minutes not long and was out. The line was a little long because of a couple customers at the counters but all in all it was good.

I really like the 5th Avenue beauty supply store - prices are great! And of course, I can't forget, one of my Laurel faves, Mad Cow Grill! I've seen the Laurel area really grow over the years so more businesses are necessary and this shopping center has alot of options! I know I missed some of the many businesses here, but here are some: -Two nail salons -Marshalls -Giant -Chuck E Cheese -Car wash -Capital One Bank -Bank of America -Negril -Barbershop -LA Fitness -T Mobile -Sally's -Subway There's plenty of parking over here!

A gas station, a dry cleaners, a nail shop and a donut shop. They also have four sit down restaurants, a take-out restaurant and a Dunkin. The only thing missing from the menu is an ice cream place. There's enough parking but the layout is limited. There is only one exit to the shopping center plus the one for the gas station. It's got a tight corner up against US 29 and Johns Hopkins Road. And there isn't a possibility add an outbuilding with a drivethrough. But it's clean, it has good coverage (I was here when it was pouring down with rain and I was dry) and it has enough lighting to feel safe.

There's a Sprouts grocery store that's been open awhile now. There's now a TJ Maxx, Allure Nails, Moby Dicks, MyEyeDr, upcoming Chipotle, PNC Back, and a brand spanking new Isaacs (opened a few days ago). There's still space left for more businesses. I think a boba shop or a wine bar would be great additions. There's a big parking lot!

It has departments with produce, bakery items, a deli, meat and seafood, prepared meals to go, frozen foods, and pantry items. It also carries frozen crab cakes and a frozen pizza brand that were both rated "the best" in separate reviews. The crab cakes are Sprouts' own brand and the pizza is one I haven't found anywhere else. Much to my surprise a review of grocery stores rated Sprouts as number one. Also open in the shopping center are a new TJ Maxx, Ulta, and Moby Dick Kabobs. Planned businesses include a Domain Fitness, an Eggspectation restaurant. and a bank, among others. Burtonsville Crossing is located right off Columbia Pike and there is plenty of parking. I'm happy to see the area thriving again.
