Through the years of being a student, an instructor, a lecturer and working on a thesis, with very little money to spend and a home to set up and life to survive, this was one of the places that helped make it. Zayers is now closed, but then was a reasonable place to find household things and clothes with very reasonable prices. Later there was a first of the series of stores that had good clothes and some brand names on offer for half or less, so dressing oneself in slightly upmarket clothes was less painful. Marshalls and other stores with similar low prices - Target for one, Ross another, but then not on east coast or at least not in Boston - I discovered later, but those days not that much was possible on public transport. And being close to Fresh Pond it was possible to have a nice walk in good weather, too.

definately better than how it used to be years ago but it still needs more improvements, putting a new panera and fixing up the center across the st was huge but i still see areas where it lacks for one thing the stores are all the same parking still sucks and you find alot of trashy people here at times be aware this is north cambridge not harvard. overall i like it but i still think it needs more work the only real reasons why i come here are: its near the Red Line some busses pass by the modells, tj maxx mcdonalds which is usually pretty good and some times staples and petco apart from that its nothing much as i said its good now but the enviroment around has NOT changed.

This place doesnt really feel like a mall so much as a larger shopping plaza. Parking is always insane and people arent very friendly as you try to get out of the way to let other people park. Radioshack just closed for good here, and the movie theater is pretty sketchy with terrible, old seats. Having a Staples nearby is really convenient and they have fast online pickup service. Unfortunately, this mall is by two difficult roundabouts and gets very congested during rush hours and weekends.

I went to whole foods here and got a burrito bowl. It was terrible and watery. I definitely would stick with Chipotle. I went to the staples here for tablet hunting as well. I did not find what I was looking for. There is plenty of parking. Overall the area didnt really stand out to me. Limited amount of stores as well.

Nada especial en tiendas, un TJ Maxx y tienda de Mascotas, muy cerca de una estación del Metro por si se quiere dejar el carro alli e ir al Downtown

Large parking lot with a variety of stores plus a movie theatre serving well the area. Whole Foods has a very large store, and Panera Bread was a nice recent addition. The discount store TJ Maxx will save you a trip to the mall when you need something quick.

Nothing special in this strip mall. There is a whole foods, tj max, pet store, staples, liquor store and a few others. Parking is usually available, though whole foods area can get crowded after work time.

Not a place for fashion and jewelry but a really good place for groceries and daily needs. The traffic is really bad if you go there during rush hour which is the only reason I give it 4 stars.

The amazing plaza has several stores and ample parking. The traffic can be fast as it can be used as a cut through. Whole foods, staples, Panera are a few of the stores in the plaza.

Great place to shop, inexpensive, with good work hours. Has a good variation of stores, ranging from clothes, food, supplies all the way to pets. Biggest issue is accessibility.

Its a great place for a one-stop to get a lot of things you may need. Has Whole Foods for groceries, a pet store, and a TJ Maxx. Across the street is CVS and Trader Joes.

Has plenty of parking but spots can be taken fairly quickly. Tj maxx, whole foods, petsmart. There is a cinema here too and in the back I believe there is a yoga studio.

Useful mall thats always busy. Terrible, linear layout that makes it hard to fully use it efficiently. But if you need whats ad there, you have no choice in the area.

Half price movies down the street, a Trader Joes, and a Chipotle, as well as a TJ Maxx across the street means theres a little something for everyone here.

Its a bunch of stores in 1 area; there is a radio shack there ( I thought they went out of business?) But the big store for most is the Whole Foods

It has a Whole Foods and Cambridge Wine & Spirits (paradise for true aficionados of wine and spirits) . There are few other reasons to go there.

Decent variety of stores. Parking in the Whole Foods area can sometimes be a pain. Tough area during morning and evening rush hour drives.

Parking pro-tip: park closer to the cinema. This location has many stores including Whole Foods, which is why you cant park on most days.

I go between a 3 and 4 stars for this. The stores here are good if you need a specific store but not if you just want to browse around

The fresh pond mall does not have a lot of selections for stores. They have a very nice whole foods but other than that nothing much.

With a great grocery store, a movie theatre, and a sporting goods shop minutes away from the T Station, it is so convenient.

Great stores. Funny to have a McDs next to Whole paycheck. Parking lot is large. And Traders is right across the street.

"Mall" is not really the right description. There are some nice stores next to each other, but not like a classical mall

Small strip mall. Nothing special. They dont have very many stores. I think whole foods is the best one they have.
