The galleria mall never fails me. Haven't been in a few years and today it felt bigger and much more improved than what I experienced over last few decades. They are modernizing it slowly but surely with small upgrades and a handful of new stores. You can pretty much park anywhere and walk in from one of the storefronts. Parking is relatively easy. I usually hit up Best Buy or Macy because I always find one that isn't terribly far. Selection and value is slowly improving. I'm finding that the prices aren't sky rocking upwards via inflation, cost of goods and tariffs like other parts of the country. I also found myself finding a lot more interesting things that I don't have access to / aren't sold in Cali. Only ended up with a few things and I was generally happy with the service. It didn't change my life but I appreciate their thoughtfulness and patience
I visited this place with my family while we visited buffalo from Toronto. I really wanted to visit this place as there was Primark inside this and since i have lived in UK so i loved Primark for good quality products at very reasonable price. The mall looked fabulous. It was nothing like malls in Toronto. It gave me a feeling of a high street rather than mall as it was long rather than wide. The inside was very beautiful and since it was a week day so it was almost empty. Free wifi was available at the mall and also almost at evey shop. Went through entire mall just to have a look around and finally went to Primark at the end. Primark was not as big as it is normally in UK and the choice of products was limited so i was disappointed. I wanted to buy makeup stuff but there were limited options. I bought three pair of shoes for myself and one for my daughter as there was good variety of shoes. Bought a couple of shorts for my daughter. The service was pretty good at Primark. It was a good visit and i would recommend everyone to visit.
New stores are moving in, and it's bright, airy, and safe. I enjoy the salons here, the Barnes and Noble bookstore on the ground floor, and the currency exchange on the second floor.
Went to the Galleria to walk since it was cold and raining outside. It's a great place since it is so big, you're not walking in a rectangle with all the corners and hallways. Not a lot of people around from 9 am until about 11:30, mainly just walkers. The stores don't open until 10 am. You can't access the mall through Dick's Sporting Goods until 10 am.
Went from Canada to USA especially to visit Primark at this mall. The mall is great. I have not seen any Canadian mall like this. It is designed like a high street feeling rather than a mall. The selection of brands is great. It is a huge mall with a variety of options available. You can definitely everything you need in a mall. The food court is great. There is halal option available at food court like osmows. The Primark was not the biggest as I have visited Primark in UK before. The choices were limited but i was happy to visit it anyways as it was nostalgic. My wife bought a few shoes and dresses. The service was great and workers were very friendly. The value for money is probably similar to Canada as we have to pay the currency conversion plus the foreign transaction fee as a Canadian. The mall was not busy at all although it could be because it was Monday. Overall experience was great and would love to visit again.
It's seen better days Vacancies on the rise and some LOW RUNG 'newer' tenants. It's Best days are behind it
My friend and I decided to check out the mall just to see what stores survived with almost four months of closure and COV19. First, for the most part walking through the general mall area people wore masks. In Macy's, saw a few individuals without that had them down, little disappointing. The mall may have purchased the required air filters, but unfortunately mall patrons didn't really follow the directions to walk one way not both. Social distancing is only half observed and not really enforced by anyone, just posted signs. As we all know, since the mall reopened their were issues. My best advise use your own judgment when visiting this establishment. Stores/ restaurants no longer in Galleria: The Walking Company, Lucky Brand Jeans, Bare Minerals Boutique ( shocker), Park Avenue Coat Company. Bravo Italian Restaurant closed, which my friend and I were shocked but not surprised. If you don't go by the entrance and just walk by you would think Bravo was still operational, as napkins were folded on tables, and silverware was still out. Bath & Body Works recently opened back up, was at one in Erie,PA and how it worked was masks required, you selected your bag size, bring it to the register and they cash you out and staple recipt to bag. New York & Company is closing all its physical store locations, by the end of September. Sadly, that will be another smaller well known womens store gone. They didn't have their fitting rooms open, and closing sale discounts range from 30 to 80% on clarence. Gordon Birsch even though it had closed pre covid 19, along with Bar Louie still had a menu posted. If your from out of town and read the review, make sure you check the actual directory of the mall prior to visiting stores or restaurants. They may have a few stores slated to open, but with the pandemic, things can change and evolve rather quickly.
I love coming to this mall I also use this mall as a training area for my service dog. There are a lot of great and exotic stores to stop at and the employees in the stores I went in are absolutely amazing. They have urban air, Dicks warehouse, Regal, Dave and Busters, Cheesecake Factory, 5 wits (which is a blast I've done all 3 room and all 3 rooms are handicap accessible which is great) there is a wide variety of of shops and restaurants so you can find what your looking for.

This is the kind of mall you'd see in a movie. I remember going to this mall in high school and college and it was one of the coolest places to be. Fast forward to today and it is still a cool place AND most importantly, it still is open with a bunch of new stores. I think what makes this mall special is the collection of things it has in and around it. The restaurants here are all really good if you need any ideas for dinner. The stores are all good size and there's a movie theater. That's my main reason I have been there a lot recently. It is a huge mall and they're open early for folks just to walk around before stores opening. There really is something for everyone at this mall and I am glad it's still open and continuing to keep improving with new stores opening up. read more
I wanted specifically to review the exceptional changing room in the food court. I was amazed at how cool it was. Easy to get the stroller in, a nice secure table and a sink. A curtain to hide without having a door to go through (awkward with a stroller) and a curved glass block wall to let in light. Great. The rest of the mall is nice, clean, easy to get around with lots of store. This place is huge. Dave and Busters is fun. escalators are pretty easy to find (again the stroller). Bathrooms were clean and can accommodate many. Good variety at the food court. Large parking lot surrounding the entire mall with many entrances. Easy access from the highway, dedicated entrance from the I-190. read more

I like this mall, but rarely come to it because I actually prefer the Boulevard Mall. My son & I came here because he needed to exchange 19,000 Yen for American money. We walked around a bit , went to the food court, there were some decent restaurants in there, but the "Souvlaki Brothers" was very disappointing ,because they did not have Steak Souvlaki. I would've eaten from there if they had. The variety of stores is great as I'm sure everyone knows. They keep it quite clean there. The only store I actually bought something in was the "As Seen on TV" store. (Prices were freaking outrageous there) I only come to this mall if it's for something in particular, or if one of my boys want to go there. I like the way it has the 2 floors of stores though. Lots of cool things about this mall, but unless it's something I can't get at the Boulevard Mall, I prob won't go. read more
I am a huge fan of this mall and I'm always surprised to see negative comments. This mall has everything you need for a good weekend: shopping, dining and entertainment! Shopping: spend a lot or a little; there are many stores with different price points and styles. There is something for everybody! Dining: first, there is the typical food court with familiar chains like Burger King and Subway, and your other typical options like Chinese food and Philly cheesesteaks. Additionally, there are lovely restaurants to choose from as well (and I can attest; their food is delicious): Bravo!, The Melting Pot, The Cheesecake Factory, P.F. Chang's, Texas De Brazil... or head on over to World Of Beers .. very hip place on the weekend to enjoy some food and drinks and music. Entertainment: Regal Cinema, 5 Wits, Escape Room, RPM for the fastest go-carts ... endless fun! Great place to spend the weekend when the snow wants to keep you inside as much as possible. read more

Always love coming to Walden for some shopping and just for roaming around window shopping even! Love they have good eats in the food court and even a bubble tea spot! I wish they kept the Tim Hortons open, since my recent visit I saw they are opening a pizza place there! They have a very good selection of good places to shop from and the cinema is also very good! read more

It's a pretty large mall. I like it. Has every store that I need, and most offer either a military or student discount. The movie theatre is nice. Big food court. And the surrounding property has some pretty solid restaurants actually. Much better than the Boulevard Mall, which is dead. read more
Came in this morning to pick up tickets I won through a Facebook contest from Walden Galleria for 5 Wits. It literally took me one minute after exiting the elevator to be able to get the tickets in hand. Pretty easy to find, following the instructions they gave me on FB messenger. I almost picked up the wrong tickets though as someone else had an extremely similar name to mine! Very crazy, but funny!! read more

Stopped by to go to the Regal theater. My go to movie theater of choice, do to its location. Had a wonderful experience when I came out to see the new Spider-Man movie No Way Home. The movie was amazing especially on the RPX screen. Like to come out on Tuesday nights for the discounted price. read more
I've seen a big improvement in this mall over the last few years. I love the Cheesecake Factory here, (even though Toronto has one now), but be warned - come early, or be prepared to wait a bit. It has some good stores that we don't have in Toronto anymore, like Express and BoxLunch (cool store with TV show and pop culture swag). There's even an edible cookie dough store! I like the JC Penney, Macy's and Lord Taylor department stores to browse around in...there are always deals to be had. I'm so glad this mall has gotten back to being a decent mall to spend time in on my trips to Buffalo! read more

Really nasty and inconsiderate crowds that frequent the Mall. A few people threatened to assault me numerous times. Was there over two weeks ago and noticed an employee mopping blood from off of the pavement. I asked a person standing beside me what had happened. The person told me a security guard was stabbed to death at that very spot the night before. There were no broadcasts of the incident on the TV news surprisingly. Must be a common occurrence maybe. read more
The biggest mall in the area. Nice size food court with many different restaurants. This mall has other restaurants that is just across the parking lot as well as a few restaurants downstairs inside the mall itself. The stores range from medium prices to high-end. Like any other mall their is no longer a Sears department store. It's hard not to find and be satisfied in finding what you need here. read more

My wife was looking for a dress to wear for her up coming birthday. We decided to eat an early dinner at home and then go to the mall to look for the dress. We went to Macy's first to look for the dress but didn't have any luck. We decided to check the mall for other stores that might have a dress she liked. It was now 6:50 PM and as we walked through the mall we noticed stores closing their gates and doors. Apparently much of the mall now closes at 7:00 PM. With other large anchor stores such as Lord & Taylor's gone, along with such inconvenient hours for shoppers who work during the day, competing with online merchants is looking more and more unlikely. Online shopping and Covid hours may be the last straw for the mall. read more

This is probably one of the better, cleaner malls in the Buffalo area. I went to the Eastern Hills Mall when I visited Buffalo for the first time and was quite disappointed, but the Walden Galleria is MUCH better compared to there. They have a wide variety of shops here, with a pretty decent-sized food court. There are always a bunch of people during the afternoon hours on weekends and holidays, so it's best to come earlier in the day if you want to avoid the crowds. Also, after the incident they had here, they require adult supervision for teenagers after certain times of the day (I think it was after 7 or 8pm?). They don't have a Disney store here, so for Disney store shopping, you'll have to go to the Niagara outlets. The Regal here is a good option for movies since it's spacious and has reclining seats. read more
