Stop at the : Bagley first. Skip that new : tiny" component couch/sofa store; until their prices return to Earth (8 pc. $6300.00 + 10% shipping 15% if you want them to unbox, 20% to under box N assembly ( put on cusions, place clamps between "box" components ) no take old away? About 5,000 patterns ( check the backing then theres only a few with linger life strengthening ?) [ STOP BY NEARBY : "BOBS DISCOUNT FURNATURE" Before you put your money down and wave goodbye to it? ] Stop by Crate & barrel if you need to cook/ live with the bestest surrounding$, but NICE kitchen stuff & the lifetime cooking utensils! A chair or bench, here or there, would help in this outdoor mall -one star

All the best stores! A beautifully landscaped and architecturally designed outdoor shopping mall with the most vibrant stores found anywhere. The Maggianos there has the best chef of the 3 that I patronize. Barnes & Noble, an exciting list of restaurants, coffee, tea and snack shops, and plenty of convenient parking. So beautiful in the evening too. 2 small play areas for the kids and they have a concert program in the summer. Shopping and entertainment. A great place to spend part of your weekend.

A beautiful outdoor mall. It has a plethora of stores from clothes, books to of course a Starbucks and much more. The stores are not the cheapest, and you may get better bargains elsewhere; however, the environment mixed with the unique layout and an opportunity to mingle with numerous individuals are some highlights. Dress for all types of elements that Chicagoland weather can cast upon you. The best parking is found the farther in the numerous lots you can go, and you will gain those 10,000 steps.

Old Orchard is a very, very, very nice mall. It is quite bourgie, though not as bourgie as Northbrook Court or Hawthorne. They have an excellent selection of retail stores and some more-than-decent eateries. The best part is that it is open-air. Unfortunately they do not allow you to drive a car inside, which would be so much fun! ...but not very safe, so I understand that restriction. Maybe if Im nice I could ride a motorcycle inside? NO? Okay, fine. In all seriousness, check Old Orchard out!

Been to this Chicago north suburb shopping center for a few times over the last couple years. Love the LL Bean store there, which could be the closest one to downtown Chicago. There are many other fine shops and department stores such as Macys and Bloomingdales to choose from. Something special was I just went back from the inaugural Taste of Korea Chicago over the weekend, which was held at the west parking lot next to Bloomingdales. This is likely to continue and become an annual event.

I love all the updating they have done to Old Orchard. The outdoor spaces are so nice for kids and adults. Theyve addes some great food options as well. The stores are nice and there are several high end options like Henry Bendel and Bloomingdales, as well as your basic standarss like Gap and Macys. I love coming here with the kids because I can shop and also take them to the outdoor park. And to top it off we can get cheesecake at the Cheesecake Factory!

The mall is very nice, and has kind of an outdoor style. It has a lot of different stores with a lot of different options (food, department stores, clothing, etc). It even has sections designed for kids to play and have fun. The only bad thing is the parking, no matter what time of the day you go, its pretty difficult to find parking spots, usually you end up finding it much further then desired, but that goes to show the mall its pretty popular.

Upscale mall in the northern Chicago Suburbs, with many high-end stores and your basic mall fare. This is an outdoor mall, so be prepared to keep you coat with you hit the mall during the winter. This mall also houses a few restaurants (Maggianos, The Bagel,) as well as several fast casual restaurants. What is missing are your typical mall fast food places (no McDonalds), but there are two starbucks, a Teavanna, and movie theater.

Had to stop by for a reset of my fathers phone at the Apple store. If you like walking this place is for you. The layout of the mall is very organized and there are maps to help you around. If you get lost, just use google maps :D Some stores actual locations could be updated for better accuracy. Also, big box department stores should be on gMaps in order to be able to find what youre looking for before you get there.

I hate going to the mall, but this location makes it waaaaaayyyyless stressful by having an open air layout that lets you quickly access whatever your going for. Ample parking and I actually really like the giant heat lamps they have outdoors. One evening my husband and son went shopping and I enjoyed a solid 45 minutes reading a book outdoors in thirty degree weather while keeping warm and toasty!

It was better before it became Westfield. They were striving to make it an upscale mall and forced out some of the old mainstays (such as Gloria Jeans Coffee) but then sunk to the level of Subway and Shake Shack. They should make Macys throw a coat of paint on the building - it looks like someones barn. That does not speak upscale to me. But for the sentimental reasons still my favorite mall.

Not sure who decided an open-air mall in the Midwest was a good idea. But that said, this is a nice high end mall with upscale stores including Nordstroms and Rolex. All your usual suspects are here from Banana Republic to the Gap. Plus some pretty good restaurant choices including Uncle Julios. If you can handle coming here in the cold weather, its the best mall in the area.

Some workers are very nice but a lot of the workers are very rude to teens without parents. And are very rude at the counter when you want to return an item.. I dont ever want to come back here again. I have bought so many things from here in the past and had never been through this kind of trouble but i recommend the manager to really choose wisely on workers.

This is an outdoor Westfield mall. They have all the stores you want plus an Akira, a Lush and a Zara. If you want to get out of the city and get free parking, this mall is nice. They have a tendency to have items in stock that you cant find in the city. We usually eat at The Boiler, shop and then see a movie at AMC - it makes a great Saturday in Skokie.

Went here with my Colombian g/f. We got some nice pictures in front of the Christmas trees there. Really nice place to visit. I definitely want to come back when its warm outside. We went to Zara and bought me a winter coat because my g/f said I needed one for winter. No way. Im a Chicagoan. I can take this cold weather. Maybe. haha. We had fun here.

I went for the free lipstick and stood in line. Inside they have everyone in line (chaos ) and they tell everyone that there are only 100 free lipsticks and if you do not have a ticket (for only 100 people ) you will not get the lipstick. No notices or employees outside to inform you. It was a waste of time and poor marketing.
