How can I possibly give a smaller sized shopping center any more than 3 stars? Is it possible?…read more At this point in time, New Albany Square only houses 10 businesses which includes five retail stores, four restaurants, and a hair salon. It's not what you call a true "destination location" like Stoneridge Plaza which is caddy-corner from this strip center, but it's not all bad either. I shouldn't complain too much. I really enjoy all the restaurants and I frequent a couple of the retail stores. But you won't catch me dead in the hair salon, so don't get any funny ideas! The only real problem in getting to the Square is the traffic. If you're at all familiar with the Morse and Hamilton intersection, it ain't always easy to get around. The entryways into the Square are not as freely accessible as most shopping centers and can be clogged by bottlenecks at times. The funniest thing (to me at least) about this shopping center is its name - "New Albany Square". It's a misnomer. It is not located in "New Albany" nor is it shaped in the form of a "Square". (Now we're splitting hairs, aren't we!) It's technically located in "Columbus". The New Albany border is a mile down the road and this "Square" is shaped more like a "Rectangle", actually. Just for kicks, I would like to propose a name change for this shopping center. How about "Columbus Rectangle"? Any takers?

My wife and I made the 90 minute trip from SE OH to World Market in Easton Plaza, as it's the only…read moreplace we can purchase replacements for our everyday silverware pattern (Treble Clef), three forks with a total price of less than $10. While browsing through the store we spotted a coffee table we both liked; it was on sale, with an additional sale price offered with a coupon...which we did not have...but which made it a great bargain. We asked about the coupon requirement, and the salesman took us to checkout where another young man assisted us in securing the coupon through our phones, while the original salesman located the very large item (coffee table) and brought it to the front of the store. This process was embarrassingly slow, as I'd picked up my 'second' cell, a smart phone I'd not yet activated for online activity, so we had to switch to my wife's phone to complete the process, taking time in a busy checkout lane. While the checkout man helped us, the salesman opened a second lane so as not to inconvenience others unduly. We were not certain that the large box would fit into the back seat of our car, but the salesman who stayed with us throughout, thought it would, even offering to unpackage it if that would help. He was (barely) correct, and loaded it for me, and I offered a cash tip which he declined. When home, pleased with our purchase, we discovered that in the process of all this, we'd not picked up the three forks, the entire purpose of our trip. Expecting another long trip would be necessary, I called the store and a young lady immediately understood out problem and set us at ease, offering to have them shipped, and called me back later with a tracking number for Fed Ex where she dropped them off on her way home after work. I can't adequately express my feelings about the help received from these three, two young man and one young woman, all unknown to us by name; I just want to say that It was a totally exemplary experience in ALL ways, demonstrating an excellent quality of staff at World Market by enabling a couple in their 80s to successfully work through a difficult shopping experience.

They've got it all from fine food to groceries to salons to educational services. The cornerstone of Stoneridge has to be its two large retailers: Kroger & Marshall's/HomeGoods. Another big anchor is the 16 screen Cinemark Movie Theater. Along the main thoroughfares in detached free-standing buildings, you will find almost every type of fast food chain such as Arby's, KFC, Taco Bell & Wendy's. For its age, Stoneridge has weathered the multiple storms of retail competition all around. For instance, as Easton continues to grow, Stoneridge hasn't lost a step. As so many other Plazas (or Strip Malls) have squandered over the recent years throughout Northeast Columbus, Stoneridge still stands as a premier shopping destination without all the vacancies. Like I said before, Stoneridge is like a home away from home for me. As a matter of fact, I'm there so frequently that I decided to get my mail sent there! PakMail is one of my favorite stores at Stoneridge Plaza!

Aldi, a bit more upscale than most, provides groceries. Marshall's and Home Goods have clothes and, well, home goods. There's a PetSmart, cellular store, nail place, etc. Wild Ginger looks to be opening soon, with Asian fusion. There's a Chase Bank that just opened. For food: Wendy's, Tim Horton's, Beer Barrel, and Bibibop round out your options. Fast or good, take your pick. Grab a bite, shop, and fill up (if you're a Costco member.) And be on your way. Watch out for the roundabouts. Another plus: this led them to finally put a stoplight in at Cosgray. This is handy for me on the way to work, and is right on 161 for anyone going to Plain City or the bustling metropolis of Kileville.

Surprisingly amazing shopping mall, which is really a strip mall, with excellent food and a wonderful feel to it, it's one of the ethnic heartbeats of the Columbus burbs, and one of many hidden gems that Columbus has to offer - much like Cleveland. So it's a really exciting and pretty long strip mall featuring a Brazilian store and a wonderful Vietnamese sandwich shop and a bunch of other cool little shops and eateries. Definitely an excellent addition to Columbus - and one which all you out there should be checking out - and I should not be the first person reviewing. Also my little Sammi has been here so what's not to love? Columbus is full of amazing ethnic stuff, and it's a hotbed of perfect international yumminess, despite not being famous for it - again, similar to Cleveland. It's the kind that you have to seek out to find it, and this strip mall is a perfect example. So even though the paving is really bad and some of the drivers are stupid, my favourite little strip mall in town offers great Vietnamese, perfect Brazilian, an African clothing/accessory store, and so much more.
