I am annoyed because stores do not open until 11am on Sunday. I mean, really? 10am is late to me, and 11am is almost a joke. I do enjoy that there is a CPK and Panera there now, and the Forever 21 here has an excellent selection of jewelry and accessories and is quite spacious. I also like the Nordstrom and cafe. read more

Northgate lacks a lot of useful stores compared to Southcenter and what's up with the stores that aren't connected to the mall? I like going here for better selections at Ulta, Forever 21 and Hollister, that's about it. read more

Nice mall with a variety of stores. Some of the stores/shops were high-end and a bit pricey. But, there was also affordable stores like JC Penney, BB&B, Bath & Body and many others. Parking was easy and lots of places to nosh at after all that shopping. read more

Overall: the mall is a little boring. Reminds me a lot of a bowling alley. Super long! Has some great stores, but they are spread out very thin and most only have one or two employees inside at a time. I think Northgate needs a little re-vamp. Great location, great restaurants, just needs some love! read more

Northgate has been around as long as I can remember although they have added more shops & a newer theater on the south side of the mall. I do love that it now has restaurants and a nearby large two-story Target. It also does offer free wifi which is a nice perk if you were to need to tap into it. The food court is average (Sbarro, Subway, etc.) but also offer a Red Robin as well as now a Five Guys and a little shopping/dining center at Thornton Place across the street. Great for in and out shopping but not huge locations of your fave shops. read more

Eh, this place is cool and has a lot of neat stores which it should have.... it is a mall. It is just a bigger version of the Silverdale Mall, the food court is actually smaller, but they do have a Ivars and a Gyro joint so that is pretty awesome. But unless you have been to a California mall you will never experience a true mall. Cali does it right, 3 stories tall, and 4 times bigger then any mall in Washington. The mall is average, but I love malls so any mall with a Barnes and Noble is "A-OK" with me. read more

I really love this mall its extremely family friendly, Easily laid out, parking was never a issue for me and had all the stores I was looking for. The only reason I can't give it a 5 star is because I was underwhelmed by the food selections and when you turn into the mall there are transits constantly causing a issue. Overall I was pleased. read more

Northgate sucks-there is no way around it. But I used to like coming to Northgate Mall because it was never crowded and I could go to the big chains and find everything (especially during sales) because no one ever shopped there. It was a place I could literally run into and run out of, which seems unusual in malls. But now they have added a Barnes and Nobles, a DSW, the Ram, and a few other new things that don't really matter and suddenly the place is crowded every day of the week! It has always been a crappy mall, but now it lacks the one thing I liked about it: space. Booo Northgate Mall. read more

It is what it is. A typical mall. I'm not that wild about it honestly. Not a lot of stores I was interested in going to. I didn't find the parking to be too bad though. But I'm not really eager to return. read more

I love Northgate Mall... it is small and simple and has everything that you need without the huge crowds and let's face it these days violence. Target/Ross and Best Buy is close and they have a great shoe repair shop ta-boot! I don't see anything ghetto or half assed about this mall it is perfect for get what you need to get done now without messing around with all the groups of people just standing around and hanging about.... they can have Everett, Southcenter and Alderwood anytime. Oh and one more thing at least you can get in and get out easy here without having only one way of getting out /in or having to wait in lines and lines of traffic!! Northgate Mall is perfect!!!! Don't change a thing!!!!!! read more

Northgate Mall is not entirely bad, as malls go, but then I don't normally spend too much time in the mall part as opposed to the anchor store part. And then I only go into the mall part when I need something specific, like some travel gadget from Bergman Luggage. Also, it's got some relatively decent chain restaurants. The Ram is one of the better sports bars in the area. It has gotten a lot busier since the recent renovations. I don't think that can be considered a knock against it. There's plenty of parking in the new 5-story structure. Yes there are lots of douchebag teenagers. Malls are where douchebag teenagers hang out. A lot of people say it's ghetto, and it's not. It's been very nicely renovated with the removal of the old movie theater and medical buildings. When people say the mall is ghetto they are overlooking the fact that the entire Northgate / Lake City area is ghetto. (I know because I live in it.) The mall is just colored by the local demographic. Also, people draw comparisons to Alderwood mall. Alderwood mall is not classy. There are a couple of classy "malls" in Beverly Hills and Scottsdale. There are zero classy malls in Washington state... not in Bellevue / Redmond where the suburbanites with money live, and definitely not in Lynnwood where the suburbanites with debt live (I know because I used to live in Lynnwood). Alderwood has more faux-stone fascia and an REI. Otherwise it's all the same crap as Northgate, only you have to leave Alderwood and drive 10 minutes if you want to go to Best Buy or Bed, Bath, and Beyond. If you live anywhere south of Shoreline, I'd pick Northgate any day. read more

NG mall is this weird blend of strip mall and regular mall as they have an inside and a bunch of showed only accessible from the outside. Parking can be a bit difficult sometimes but it's not like there is ever very far to walk. They also have a wide veriety of shops and are the only place to have a Think Geek retail shop as of 2017. read more

Well this mall is definitely not my favorite. The ambience is quite boring and not lively enough. The layout and design are dull. They don't have Sephora, Lush, etc. If you are a beauty savvy, this mall is not for you. Clothing brand selections are very limited as well. read more

Apparently it's the oldest mall in America! Who would've known? In the past few years it's been updated quite a bit and have added additional square footage to include Nordstrom Rack, Ulta and additional restaurants like Panera and a sushi place called Ocean Blue. Right now the parking is under construction to add some additional multi level covered parking. There are some diverse stores you can't find other places like Alanna Estate Jewelry and Shubad Jeweler which has 21K Indian and Arabic styled pieces. They have some of the typical chains like The Gap, Old Navy, Sunglasses Hut, Nordstrom, Macy's (lots of furniture here), AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. They don't have any luxury / specialty retailers like Coach, LV, Brooks Brothers, etc. It's relatively basic from a shopping perspective and more focused on discount retailers like DSW for example. I'm guessing this will change in the near future as they expand the mall. read more

Northgate Station - Shopping Centers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Nothing unique or exciting except for delicious Cinnabon. Food court is at the South end of the Mall by the older parking garage. Red Robin offers free burgers to Veterans on Veteran's Day read more

This is one of the smaller malls in the greater Seattle area. The way I see it is, there's at least a Nordstrom so it can't be all that bad. This mall has come a long way in terms of retail, restaurants and development. Definitely more options than before. If your favorite retail shop is in a smaller mall like this one, you're more likely to find what you are looking for and/or receive better customer service. When there's less people shopping, sales people are more inclined to help you so they can receive commission. Also, shops are more organized because it's less frequented. For some reason though... parking doesn't seem to be any better. read more

Nice shopping mall with many great stores and restaurants everything you need in one shopping center.

Fully in doors and usable on a rainy day - this the only real mall in Seattle. U Village is great, but it really doesn't count. The collection of stores they call an "outdoor mall" everyone else in the world would call a shopping center, or even a neighborhood. I mean by their definition Downtown Seattle could be called just one big outdoor mall... Northgate has a bunch of great unique Seattle places Ivars and Piroshky Piroshky (much less busy than pike, and just as good!) as well as all the major shops you would expect in any mall. Located close to I-5 it's also very easily accessible from just about anywhere in Seattle. The only thing this mall is missing is an Arcade and/or bowling place to make it really complete. read more

This mall has been here forever and is pretty much a Seattle area institution at this point. Over the years, it has seen many changes, makeovers, and upgrades although it has remained a constant presence and a go to location for just about any type of product or service you might ever need. You will find all the standard trappings similar to what you would find at any major mall with anchor tenants like Macy's and J.C. Penney along with a mix of local and chain stores spread throughout the space and a pretty solid roster of restaurants thrown in for good measure. If you want to spend money, this mall will be more than happy to accommodate you in that endeavor. read more

This is a place the Mr and I like to call "convenience", I don't normally like to come here, but since it's close to home, it does it in a pinch for me. They pretty much have your standard stores, but not as much as say Alderwood and Southcenter. They do have a nice selection of restaurants, and glad they put a Barnes and Noble, and Bed Bath and Beyond. Their parking is alright, you just have to know where to park. The newer lot, in front of Nordstrom, Gene Juarez, and all those places are kinda icky places to park. I prefer to park by Red Robin and Pay Less, for some reason those spots aren't as crowded. You may have walk a bit, but really it's not going to kill you. It's an alright mall...close to home. read more

Northgate has always been one of my favorite malls. I grew up in Everett and once I earned my driver's license, off I go to the bigger and better mall..Self confessed mall rat! Anyways...Nordstrom, Macy's and all the recent upgrades make it even better! My favorite part is going to the MAC counter without entering Nordstrom..I want my makeup and give it to me now! read more

Good location and is easy to find parking. The selection of stores are solid and have a lot of big name stores.

A nice, clean centers! Not overly crowded and has a lot of what you're looking for! Shop your local malls and help keep them open!

Blah. From the freeway and outside, it looks like a pretty nice mall! Oh, but that is deceiving because once you step inside, it is nothing spectacular. The layout is awkward, and even the Nordstrom and Macy storefronts have an exposed facade. It's like they are missing a ceiling/top. The restaurant and stores surrounding the perimeter of the mall aren't bad, but that's about it that's okay. We spent about 30 minutes, and then hightailed it out of there. Everything is just very dated, so if you're looking for a luxurious shopping experience, look elsewhere! read more

Not the nicest mall but it certainly gets the job done for Seattleites looking for a place to shop where parking is free. I wish everything was a bit more connected, though... It's separated in to three complexes that are far enough away where you don't want to walk between them. The food court is really nothing special, but if you're doing department store shopping, this mall has them placed a lot closer together than Bellevue or Southcenter. read more

I'll give them 2 stars just for trying to improve this location...however this mall is way to small and teeny bopper orientated. there isn't much here for normal adults expect for a VERY SMALL nordstrom. however this location use to much more run-down so presently this is a real improvement. read more

This is my favorite mall! I have been coming here off and on since I was a kid. They have changed and expanded several times over the years, and it just keeps getting better! They went through a big remodel to look a lot like Alderwood, but here's the best part: you can actually find a parking spot! It's right off the freeway and pretty easy to get to. Since there's less people at the mall, it's also easier to get around. The Forever 21 is huge, and they have an Ulta at Northgate. It has a lot of shops and restaurants more closely connected, so you don't have to get in your car to get to where you want to go. read more

While it has some useful offerings, there isn't much special about this particular mall. It has history, sure, but not a whole lot else to boast. I've come here a few times in passing for a 'shopping fix', and merely got an 'exercise fix' by walking the length of the mall and back in disappointment. read more

The leather couches that they have in between stores are very comfortable. I can take a nap when my girlfriend goes shopping.

This mall isn't owned locally. No surprise. I've worked at a few stores in this mall, let me just say NEVER eat in the food court. rats everywhere, roaches too and a lot of the time the pizza sauce at sbarro came in moldy (and it wasn't thrown out). That aside there are an assortment of big name shops, macy's, nordstroms, bergman luggage, JC pennys, Game stop, Hollister, Clairs...you know. The Mall cops tend to have a fair turn over because the mall is full of agressive youth and drug addicts. Probably what resulted in the lead security guard being so closed minded so beware. I've seen shootings, lootings and lock-ins here. Also forget about driving through Northgate Way during rush hour. There are about five or six shoe stores, half of which are skater stores as well. I guess the best part of the mall is the renewed west side, or the target/best buy/ross area that is actually across the street on the north side. read more

A small, sad and unimpressive mall. We wandered around for a while and then left without buying anything. They have a Pokemon center though, which is pretty cool... if you're into that kind of stuff. read more

This place sucks. The only store good here is Old Navy. Deadzone of bad stores and mostly emptiness. The food court is absolute trash. Nothing comes together. Bad shops. Bad food. The only reason to go here is that it's next to Target and Best Buy. Not anchored by any good food nor grocery store. If you want to go to a mall that's still alive - go to Bellevue Square or Westfield Southcenter Mall - these still have decent food and a grocery store next by so it makes sense that people and families stroll by them still. This highlight of this place is like - the Pokemon Vending machine or whatever it is. read more

It's a nice semi-in-the-city, mostly in the suburbs mall. I really like the food court. i was looking for an Apple store, but no luck.

They do not treat their employees well. They do not recognize the 4th of July as a national holiday and make their workers work the normal business hours while the mall managers take half days. read more

It might be one of the smallest malls (if not the smallest) in Seattle. It does not have many high brand names like Bellevue square or Pacific Place, but it has your usual stores that you'd expect in a mall, and then some. It has children's play area, where lots enjoy watching their kids. It has a couple of banks, a Barnes & Noble, and a bunch of excellent restaurants spanning a wide range of tastes... RAM's, Panera, Red Robin, Nordstrom Cafe, a Mexican restaurant, CPK, a sushi bar, a bunch of cafes, and a rich food court. It has the basic department stores (Nordstrom, Macy's, JC Penny). I come here mostly for clothing, men's and children. It's great for walking too. It's often busy with morning walkers... all the times, actually. Perhaps the same as other malls but here you can't help but run into them due to the layout. All in all, I love it, but I do acknowledge that I'm biased to anything Northgate. read more

Northgate Station - Here we are. - Shopping Centers Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Maybe I'm biased cause I've lived overseas half my life and have been to great huge malls with lots of diversity...this is a plain jane mall...nothing about it impresses me at all. read more

Just spent over $250 in the mall. It's not closed, all the stores are open at 8:20pm, but they cannot provide a restroom for myself or my wife for basic human needs. Walked all the way to the north end of the mall and the bathrooms are gated off. Janitor says we can't use them. This place is going downhill. Why would I ever come back? read more

I have seen decades of changes at Northgate mall my father remembers it being just acres of land. I have noticed the decline over the years mainly due to safety and security concerns as the crime has steadily increased. I remember I took a date to the theaters at Northgate and before we could enter the theater they had security checking all of the women's purses for weapons and it made me feel so uneasy to be there that I never returned. On another occasion, I was walking to Northgate to do some shopping when I was cornered by two black men who wanted my wallet. I got away and called the police and the mall security got the two men and I identified them but the security told the two men to go home and then I was told to leave the mall. Still to this day I don't understand why the men were let go, or why I was told to leave the mall property. My family use to do quite a lot of shopping there but ever since the mugging we all stay as far away as possible. Going to that mall at night is asking for trouble, I am both lucky and thankful to have gotten away from my attackers. I urge anyone to be extremely cautious when visiting this mall. read more

this was the first mall i ever went to when i first came to the US in 1997. bought bedding and some other things before starting college. i remember there was a norwegian guy who worked at the gap and my parents were talking to him... i don't remember anything too significant and distinct about this mall that would differ from any other run of the mill mall... read more

Remember the good old days of Nordstrom where customer service was a major priority? Well my friends, those days are gone. Especially in the shoe department.
