I was really impressed by the sheer variety of food and shopping options. I specifically made the trip to visit the Made in KC store, and it was a total win--they have a fantastic selection of unique gifts if you're looking for something local. Getting here from downtown was a breeze via public transportation, which made the trip much more relaxing than worrying about parking. Whether you're here for the shopping or just the views, it's a KC highlight!

Lots of street parkings, parking lots and garages available all around. Street parking is free for 2 hours. It gets busy around afternoon to evening hours. There are all sorts of shops here including apparel stores, jewelry stores, gift shops, general and home goods stores. Among dining spots we saw Shake Shack, Panera, True Food Kitchen, Eddie V, Melting Pot, Kura sushi, Ocean Prime, Capital Grille and several other popular restaurants. We went to the Plaza on multiple days for shopping and eating. Some of the places we visited were Shack Shake, Bruu cafe, Lululemon, Rally House, Made in KC marketplace. Prices were mid to high depending on the location. The plaza buildings looked so pretty with their lightings at night. There was also a Fifa countdown sculpture since KC is a host city. The plaza area felt pretty safe and well maintained. Lots of security personnel were always available in each of the blocks.

This is a wonderful open space outlet shopping location.

There's also high end brands like Coach, Kate Spade, Michael Kors and Tory Burch. I loved how the pathways are filled with grass and natural plants. Other than shopping, this place has lots of entertainment and dining options. They have an AMC right in the middle section. The Dave & Buster is in the left wing. There are multiple restaurants including Yard House, Five Guys, Panera and Chipotle. I loved how the pathways are filled with grass and natural plants. We spent couple hours here on New Year's day. It wasn't busy, so we had great shopping experience. Staff members in all the stores provided a friendly service. We bought a bunch of stuff from different stores. All the stores offered got discount, between 25% - 75%. I wish the signs were little better so we could know what shops are in what direction. We drove to both ends of parking lot to explore both sides since it was really cold to walk outside. But overall it seemed to be the go to shopping spot in and around KC.

Came to the outlet on the New Year Day. Almost no people so it was really nice to walk around…read morewithout any line. It has many fashion stores, jewelry, shoes etc. It also has AMC and Dave&Buster on site. A lawn area for kids to run around. Most stores were running some discount for the holidays so I would say the price was reasonable. But keep in mind that KC charges 10% city tax.

This is one of these brand new fancy futuristic space-age shopping malls that I really hate - which are completely full of all of your very expensive brand name shops including a few local things as well. The Bubble Tea here (which is why I came here the most recent time) was about twice the price Bubble Tea should be, and about half as good. Go figure. Welcome to suburban hell. It is pretty though. Like a lot of the people who come here.

The parking system up to now has been easy to navigate and validate at any shop. The new "frictionless" parking system is an obnoxious data grab, irritating to set up (I do not want to make an account for every place I park), and impossible for people who choose not to have a smartphone on them at all times (me). :) I'm sure it cost a lot to implement, but every person I've talked to has also found it frustrating. Will be ice skating elsewhere from now on and choosing alternative parking from the crown center garages whenever possible.

The Crown Center is a family friendly shopping and entertainment spot. Mostly clean and well…read moremaintained space. There are shops like Hallmark, Crayola, Starbucks, convenience store, tea store, souvenir store, Halls (luxury store, mostly expensive goods), local KC good store and so many different restaurants. The hallway connects it to entertainment places like Hallmark visitor center, Kaleidoscope, Sealife and Lego Center. In the plaza they also had ice rink and Christmas decorations. There's indoor parking, street car stop and Union station (minutes away) for guests. Throughout the day, lots of tourists, including families with kids visit this center. The restaurants have varieties like bbq, pizza and sandwiches. Sheridan's frozen custard is a really popular ice cream store. It is also connected to Westin hotel via passageway. I did struggle a bit the signs and directions. There were not clear in some corners. Security personnel are available throughout the plaza, we took some direction help from them. But overall it's a prime spot in KC.

I recently stopped here just saw the add another mall to my Mall list of places that I visited…read more This is an outdoor mall which to me are a hit or a mess. This place features a great deal of stores and an immense amount of parking as well. On slow days you can actually drive into one of the parking spaces near the mall and actually walk up that door store you want to go to. This place featured a wide variety of stores though it leans towards a bit of upscale. Most of these stores too are also occupied as well not many vacancies. Some of the stores are hidden like the Tropical Smoothie Cafe. Some stores stood out, most weren't too interesting but it's worth checking out or if you need a place to get your steps in too!

It has some stores you'd expect- Starbucks, CVS, Price Chopper- but then there are different, unexpected shops like Duck Donuts & 2 specialty shoe stores- SAS and The Foot Spot. The Hallmark store and the ACE hardware are better than your average locations of those chains. There's also Salon Mission that offers hair and massage services, Dewey's pizza restaurant, and the wonderful Glenwood movie theater, among others. I've written separate reviews for many of these places. Parking can be tricky and annoying, but what parking lot isn't?!

Well turns out it is a large shopping center with a few stores in it. I rooks photo of the map of what's all in it. Most of the shops seemed like destination shops and not just stop to shop for fun to spend time, but the Ace Store here isn't your typical Ace Hardware. At least it isn't during the Christmas season as they had lots of gift ideas such as soaps, cooking pans and pots and mugs, etc. I'll leave a review for it too.
