Every time that my wife and I travel to San Diego, somehow we always find our way to the Carlsbad…read morePremium Outlets. Sometimes I will just be the two of us, and sometimes a larger group. Stopping by the Carlsbad Premium Outlets is a fun outing for anyone looking to shop a nice set of outlet stores in Carlsbad where the weather is typically lovely outside. There are plenty of stores along with some food options. There are some name brand stores and some stores not tied to name brands. There are deals regularly, especially around times like Black Friday and before and after any holiday. I often take a book and read it outside in a comfortable chair (hopefully out of the sun) while waiting for her to shop. When we went with her parents once, I sat with my father-in-law outside and we eventually stopped by Starbucks for a beverage. There are more than 85 stores and restaurants at the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. My wife's favorite is the Ann Taylor Factory Store. There is also a Coach Outlet, Gap Factory, Michael Kors Outlet, and so much more. Some of the restaurant options include a Blaze Pizza, Starbucks (of course!), Jersey Mike's, Ruby's Diner, Rubio's Coastal Grill, Wetzel's Pretzels, Tea Monks, Panda Express, Oasis Tacos, Mot'to Japanese Grill, and Haagen Dazs.

Each day, different sales are listed on their website at https://www.premiumoutlets.com/outlet/carlsbad/deals.

This was during their early set-up they were just settling into this comfortable space. Oceanside has created several community shared spaces over recent years, adding to the craft beer, local wine and thriving food scene. A co-op style environment, where local artists, makers and creatives show off there work and which you can support and shop SoCal. There is one of a kind art, fashion and jewelry. An added bonus is coffee, so you can linger longer with abundant seating around. It's one of those places where you will always get your find on; a card, a baby gift, a plant. I picked up some glow in the dark tattoos. Check out this ever changing spot in South O'side... #TheRisingCo #SouthOceanside #LingerLonger #SeaborneCoffee

Now, two years later more and more stores moved in and it developed a nice atmosphere. I like that they are offering a food court, Macy's and JcPenny. A gym is just around the corner and plenty of parking on both sides. The movie theater etc is a nice touch in that area. This mall has great potential, this Christmas 2019 they offered a corner with free characters to meet, hot coco and some local snacks for free. In addition, they have a very pretty Santa on the other side of the mall.

You see what kind of person I become when I'm TRYING to shop at a CVS store. Well, not to worry North County residents. This is the store to head to.....please leave room for me. I still have a list. BTW to CVS: carts are being taken by the homeless, I get it. Several places have come up with a way to "nip that in the bud". Please think of something too!!!

There is also a Jimbo's grocery store and several different restaurants. Henry's and Parakeet Cafe are the newer additions to the existing lineup. The Forum hosts community events on major holidays as well as free workout events on the weekends. I recently went to their Art and Walk walkaround event and loved it, there were food samples from the participating restaurants, wine tasting and live music. Overall great vibes and fantastic event. I enjoy coming here for a coffee, shopping or a bite to eat.

Pretty decent mall on the border of O'side and Carlsbad. It's got a decent selection of stores but…read moreI wouldn't call it "high end" - but, for me, that's a good thing. Doesn't seem like it gets crowded very often but, then again, malls ain't what they used to be (I've been here a few times now). This mall has some cool stores and, interestingly, a section at the back end of the mall for collectibles and such...almost like a mini Frank and Sons (IYKYK). For the stores I've visited, my interactions were largely positive - friendly, helpful staff. Some stores are more expensive than others but it depends on what you're looking for and how much you're willing to spend. Remember - it's a mall. Would definitely return to check out some movies, for sure the comic store and collectible section at the back end of the mall on second floor.

My family and I were staying at Legoland, and one evening, we decided to eat at Luna Grill. We couldn't find the entrance to the restaurant, but the directions kept providing the location at The Shoppes at Carlsbad. We ended up parking, and exploring some of the stores inside, until we found out the restaurant was located on the opposite side of the main entrance and you go inside the restaurant outside of the mall. While exploring inside the mall though, it did have a lot of stores and entertainment available. It was nice that it was indoors and there looked to be a lot of other dining options available! There was plenty of parking spots too! If you're visiting Legoland theme park, and staying a few days, I'd recommend stopping by this mall. It was nice to take a break from the theme park and you can get a chance to go shopping!

There are different types of shops and restaurants around. For example; you can find coffee shops, bobba shop, Gelato,ramen restaurant, sushi restaurant, Italian restaurant, clothing, jewelry, souvenirs, board game shop, art gallery, dentist office and more. I enjoyed shopping at many shops there and trying the coffee shop, gelato and sushi restaurant.

Parking can be a bit tricky during peak times, the ambiance and proximity to Carlsbad Village's other attractions make it worthwhile. Whether you're looking for a quick bite, a special gift, or just a stroll, Village Faire offers a delightful mix of coastal charm and convenience.
