    The busy side, note the security gut reading while sitting on massage chair.

    This is one of the saddest malls I have ever seen. Beyond the two anchors, best buy and Target, there is nothing here... Well nothing worthwhile. The only thing that keeps this mall in business beyond the anchors, is the RMV. If you want to shop go across the street, to what I would rate a 2 star mall. I used to live the watertown mall, lechmere rocked, they had an arcade which I had birthday parties at. Sadly the arsenal mall across the street also rocked back then.

    This is a sad mall, but I am giving it 1 stars for the anchor stores: Target and Best Buy. The mall has had a pretty recent facelift but it still has nothing to be desired. In total there are like a dozen stores in there, including Target, Best Buy, and Work 'n Gear. Ahh, but one must not forget that it does have a RMV location there. Does that count as shopping?

    Dim Sums are OK but they are not hot. The stir fry shrimp noodles plate is very small with only several midsize shrimp

    It's old, but lovely. Best Buy at one end and Target at the other end. Sandwiched in the middle is the RMV. There's a smoke shop that has an array of snacks, smokes, lottery etc. Lyft has a booth in the middle, I've had several keys made from the locksmith located in there. Papa Gino's is always great for a quick lunch. There's an Avenue clothes store, Carter's baby clothes and a Work N Gear. It's not a huge mall but I like the things they do offer.

    'Despicable' is a way I use to describe this mall. Much worse than both of the cleaner, more luxurious Arsenal Mall & Mall At Chestnut Hill. This mall doesn't have much in it and the overall place is old and not really very clean (or anywhere near my standards). I guess it's better than my nearby Walpole Mall, as there AREN'T any empty storefronts (now, that's a good thing for the mall), and there are some good stores. But for a MALL, it's really the pits. 3 stars at MAX, but for now it's only going to get 2. Best Buy is a great place to shop, and this Best Buy has both a mall entrance and a separate entrance. The best of the mall, Target, is huge, and also has both a mall and separate entrance. Other shops throughout the mall are Payless, Avenue, Papa Gino's, Registry of Motor Vehicles, Carter's, "Moda", Work & Gear, a convenience store, Sally Beauty, and a few other small shops. Overall, this isn't nearly a destination unless you need Best Buy or Target, and some real basic shops in the mall, otherwise, check out the Arsenal Mall across the street, Mall at Chestnut Hill, ten minutes away, or the Natick Mall, about 30 minutes away. 2 stars. Located on Arsenal Street in Watertown, directly across from the Arsenal Mall. Exit 17 off the Mass Pike.

    There's a Target and an RMV. That in itself should be a huge appeal to anyone who enjoys awkward pairings. Embrace it. Go with it.

    It does have a RMV for Massachusetts which is helpful in that I do not have to go into the city.

    Updated 8/28/18:…read more When you live near 1 Kendall Square, you realize some things: A. There is no liquor store within a half mile of you. B. Grocery stores are few and far between. C. Restaurants cater to the bio-tech industry = higher prices D. The T isn't close and buses rarely pass through. Parking is available at a garage, probably your best bet on a busy night. E. There are great restaurants and bars, and nightlife is FINALLY increasing! So WHY walk a half mile from the Kendall T Stop in a direction you're pretty sure is leading you to nowhere? Here are 10 respectable reasons involving food and at least one non-food related ... Amelia's Not actually IN 1 Kendall Sq, but only a block south on Portland Street. Italian. Small, intimate. Pricey, but tasty. Atasca For Portugese fine dining just beyond Emma's about 500 ft. Outdoor seating. The Beantown Coffeehouse Open on weekdays, but not late. Good muffins, coffee, sandwiches (of the breakfast and lunch type) Beauty's Pizza Take-out pizza, doughy and tasty, loaded toppings. Not IN the square, but not far... Bon Me Yeah, you know that food truck? It has claimed space here, too. Cafe du Pays Cambridge Brewing Company (CBC) Fresh brewed beer by CBC and food. Outdoor seating. Flattop Johnny's Bunch of pool tables, two dart boards. Outdoor seating. Tuesday Ladies' Night (50% discount for pool) The Friendly Toast Kitschy retro diner style - menu full of made up words like "Miscellany" Kendall Cinema Not for mainstream movie viewing. Independent. The Smoke Shop BBQ Casual restaurant. Outdoor seating. State Park Cocktails, concept eating and drinking. Outdoor dining. Sadly, the following restaurants that used to be in/near this location have closed: Anise The Blue Room Emma's Pizza Hungry Mother Shine Tommy Doyle's West Bridge

The whole atmosphere is cold, not inviting and boring. No distinction, character or charm. Before there used to be. Under better prior management I presume. Removing the iconic waterfall? Big mistake. It was elegantly paved with small penny fountains. It was timeless. This urge to just nuke what was beloved to make everything look like a clinical and soulless hallway. All employees at almost every store are glued to their phone and not present at all to customers. You don't make money that way. Even the joke of security guards are glued to their phones outside Gucci. What a joke. In unpredictable and trying times like these, inflation isn't going anywhere and high end stores need to actually try. It was never this catered to the 1%. You could actually go to a restaurant or store and not feel like you've been robbed and facing a debt to pay off for a year. Management can waste their breath saying that Copley was simply updated to keep up with trends. Well, you failed. There's no heart, hardly any selection, all classic architectural which features attracted people from all over the world - destroyed where you do not know where you are. What once was a place of wonderment, excitement and to spark your Christmas Spirit, is now simply a drain of disappointment as you go home with a sigh. Management - you don't have to bother responding. You obviously made decisions to destroy the good made by top notch engineers. It's too late. Sad.
