Additionally, there is a pleasant food court that includes restaurants such as Subway, Mandarin Express, Chick-fil-A, Taco Bell, Charlie's Philly Cheese Steaks, and more.

It's staying in business by trying new ideas and making sure that it continues to bring in customers. The size of the mall seems a lot easier to manage due to the perfect number of stores without it being too overwhelming. It's not forcing stores to go out of business because they are competing with similar stores. Seems like they have that under control. The mall is also clean, which is a plus! It seems shiny and new all the time. It can get busy here on Saturdays, especially the nighttime when the young folks like to come out and hang out. I try to avoid it during those times because it can get a little ghetto and obnoxious (can't stand teenagers). I prefer the weekdays when it's a lot quieter, where I can shop and walk in peace. Overall, great options in the food court and food options connected to the mall.

Meadowmont Village is the place my wife and I have visited the most during our time in Chapel Hill…read more(2020-2024), mainly because of the Harris Teeter here, but also because of the property's restaurants and other businesses. This is a nice mixed-use development on the east side of Chapel Hill, close to the Durham border. It's just a short drive down highway 54 from I-40 exit 273 and it's not far from 15-501 either. Meadowmont Village sets itself apart from competition in the area by simply being nicer with a cleaner and more elevated atmosphere. The architectural design, layout, and landscaping make it a quaint, relaxing place to walk around. The tenant mix is a good combination of chain and local. This isn't a bigger, destination-type development like Fenton in Cary. Instead, it's smaller and quieter, and that's part of the appeal. It's never felt crowded or uncomfortable all the times I've been here. It's easy to get in and out and there always seems to be just the right amount of people, even when it's busy (e.g., active patios at Brixx, Bluebird, and Kahlovera). There's a pond and trails nearby and overall, the entire neighborhood is well-kept. When we first moved to the area, my wife and I frequented the Harris Teeter up 54 at Hope Valley Commons in Durham. We then switched to the Harris Teeter at Meadowmont Village because it's more secluded and has a calmer, more peaceful environment (inside and out). While I think the Harris Teeter at Hope Valley Commons is a little bigger with a slightly wider variety of inventory, that difference hasn't been big enough for us to switch back to the Hope Valley Commons Harris Teeter as our primary Harris Teeter. Below is a list of businesses at Meadowmont Village that we've been to so far. I've left Yelp reviews for most of them.

But if that doesn't apply to you then this fancy shopping area will work out fine. They're trying to be European and stuff, and it's cute. Reminds me of some of the fancier parts of Northern Virginia or Maryland, but it's not cheap here. It's a cute brand-new shiny shopping center with some boba tea and some desserts and some food and a lot of high-end shops. They tried to make it like a little shopping Village and while it does seem fake it and contrived, it also is a really nice place to hang out and get some stuff - and it's peaceful and safe and quiet and reminds me of Virginia in some ways.

Interesting review left by Mr. H. (Mr. Haberdasher) here on Yelp for the Glen-Lennox Shopping…read moreCenter in 2012. It's written from a local's perspective whereas for me, I'm just one of hundreds of thousands (millions?) who've passed (or are currently passing) through Chapel Hill over the years. During our time in Chapel Hill, Glen-Lennox Shopping Center has been the small L-shaped strip mall we pass to get to and from UNC's main campus, downtown Chapel Hill, and Carrboro. To date, we've visited for two restaurants: 1. Jujube - Asian food, opened in 2005. Yelp page: https://www.yelp.com/biz/jujube-chapel-hill 2. Bin 54 Steak & Cellar - upscale steakhouse, opened in 2006. Yelp page: https://www.yelp.com/biz/bin-54-steak-and-cellar-chapel-hill-2 The fact that both Jujube and Bin 54 have managed to stick around for 17, 18-plus years should tell you something. You can read my reviews for each of those restaurants on their respective Yelp pages, but in a nutshell, I thought Bin 54 was phenomenal and Jujube was fine. During our visits, Glen-Lennox's parking lot has been mostly full. Aside from the restaurants, we've had no other reason to visit Glen-Lennox - for example, for the dry cleaner, eye doctor, beauty salon, Sherwin-Williams paint store, kitchen and bath store - since we already go to other places for that stuff or haven't needed those types of things/services. There's a Bank of America ATM here plus two drop boxes, one for USPS and the other FedEx. No UPS drop box though. We go to another shopping center down the road for the drop boxes. This shopping center has been around since 1950. For the history of this place, I refer you to the aforementioned Mr. H's review plus https://glenlennoxvision.com/, the current official website for this property. The banner at the top of the site says, "Established 1950, re-established 2020." I don't know what they mean by that, but apparently plans have been under way for years to redevelop this property into something much bigger. It looks to be a modern mixed-use development, like many that have sprung up across the country over the past couple decades. As it stands today though, Glen-Lennox to me is the small strip mall with two (successful) restaurants. From highway 54 (Raleigh Rd), the property does go farther back into the woods (north) with a combination of old and new homes and apartments plus a fairly new, five-story, glass office building at the corner of 15-501 (Fordham Blvd) and Glen Lennox Dr: the Industrious at The Gwendolyn coworking space. There are new trails around here too. The shopping center is located on 54 at 15-501 on the east side of Chapel Hill, close to the Durham border. The closest interstate exit is I-40 exit 273: NC 54 - Chapel Hill, Durham.

Those who drive along Raleigh Road (HWY-54) are greeted by the eye-catching '50s Glen Lennox…read moreShopping Center sign. The Glen Lennox Shopping Center in Chapel Hill, NC has the honor of being the first suburban shopping center in Chapel Hill, NC and one of the first in the state after Cameron Village in Raleigh, NC. After WWII, the Glen Lennox Cottages were built for the returning GI's who were attending UNC. Due to the Glen Lennox Cottages being on the edge of town in the '50s there was a need for nearby retail and the captive audience made it very popular as well as its novelty, ushering in a new era of shopping. What was once the shopping destination in Chapel Hill in the '50s and '60s has now been eclipsed by the Glenwood Square Shopping Center, its younger sibling across the street, and all of the nearby shopping centers in the area. Despite the shortcomings, there is still a heartbeat in this shopping center. Currently all businesses in the center are in the service sector, which fills a niche in the area. There are restaurants, a kitchen and bath renovation shop, an optometry practice, a tanning salon, a beauty salon, Time Warner Cable center, and an investment practice. While the optical store may appear to be retail, in reality it is the feeder store to the optometry practice housed within. One of the differentiating features of this strip mall is that it was built with a second-story to house offices. In the center of the strip is the walk-up to the offices called the Lennox Building Offices; over time, a handicap-accessible entrance was added on the side of the building. Among the nondescript offices are medical practices as well as Amy's Alterations. Near Amy's office suite there is a small seating area that looks like it came out of a Mad Men set. This shopping complex, unlike other shopping centers built around the same time, has been capable of adapting to the changes over the decades and still draws people in. One of the factors that helped this property not decay was its affiliation with the ever popular Glen Lennox Cottages, plus the charm of this place lays mostly with its '50s Americana appeal.

Eastgate Crossing is a modest shopping center, anchored by stores such as Aldi, Petco, Trader…read moreJoe's, and Ulta, on the northeast side of Chapel Hill. Surrounded by Village Plaza (anchored by Whole Foods) to the south and Rams Plaza (anchored by Food Lion) to the east, this predominantly retail area is known as the Blue Hill District, formerly the Ephesus Fordham District: https://www.townofchapelhill.org/government/departments-services/chapel-hill-2020/future-focus-areas/the-blue-hill-district. According to Kite Realty, the Trader Joe's here is the "highest-performing" Trader Joe's in North Carolina. At the time of writing this, there are nine Trader Joe's locations in the state, going as far west as Asheville and as far east as Wilmington. Businesses my wife and I have visited here include Trader Joe's, Chipotle, Chopt, Kipos, and Starbucks. The business we've been to the most is Kipos. It's a great local Greek restaurant and I believe one of only two local restaurants at Eastgate Crossing, the other being Twisted Noodles. There's also Guglhupf Bake Shop which sells food from Guglhupf Bakery in Durham. Other than that, everything else here is a chain and/or big-box retailer. Aside from the aforementioned, examples include Bruegger's Bagels, Rise (biscuits, chicken sandwiches), Shake Shack (relatively new), and Snooze (breakfast) (food), and Dollar Tree, Great Outdoor Provision Co., and Talbots (retail). We don't shop at Trader Joe's much so the main reason for us to come here is for the restaurants. Not the best lineup, but not bad either.

If you are looking to lease one of the lovely condos that sit nestled above the businesses you need to hop online and search for Sutton Station Apartments.

After measuring my friend, she immediately put her measuring tape away like she was done.
