    Tyson’s is a comprehensive large scale mall with cinema screens and lots of eating options. The shopping and pricing is very good.

    As a team member at U Shine Dental - Old Town, I highly recommend visiting the Torpedo Factory Art Center, just a 3-minute drive to the east. This vibrant hub of creativity features incredible art galleries, local artists, and exhibitions. It’s the perfect spot to explore after an appointment, offering a unique cultural experience in Old Town Alexandria. Whether you're an art enthusiast or just looking for something inspiring to do, the Torpedo Factory is a must-visit!

    Very pleasant and large shopping mall set over 4 levels. Good that they've got seating in the alleys for men to sit while waiting for their wife to shop! Great food court too with lots of choices

    Parents from overseas came visit and I recommended the outlet mall. Parking was plenty and the outlet was so big that they had to be strategic on the shops they wanted to see. They ended up returning to the mall for a second time to browse more shops.

    The mall is perfect for our current times. Open spaces, fresh air and lots of great stores to choose from. A notable store is the Williams Sonoma outlet, friendly service and good selection of merchandise.

    This is a truly lovely and upbeat area. Shops, restaurants, movies, library. And did I say really good restaurants. All nice and walkable.

    Great shopping experience! My daughter and I were excited to shop at this Mall and we were not disappointed. There are many luxury brands available to shop; Chanel, Louie Vuitton, St Laurent, Dior, Burberry to name a few. We enjoyed our day browsing and buying! We had dinner at one of the restaurants conveniently located at the Mall. Also, parking seemed plentiful although we were able to walk to the mall because we stayed at a nearby hotel. All in all a fun day of shopping. Oh, one more thing! All shops had great sales associates who provided positive customer service.

    Very elegant mall in a nice neighbourhood with an expansive parking area. This mall features variety of stores including Macys and JC Penny. It also features a decent variety of restaurants. I was surprised that the mall was not that crowded, I belive it needs more high-end retail departments such as Nordstrom or Sacks Fifth Avenue to make shopping diverser and the ambiance more vibrant.

    The Old Town Farmers’ Market is my favorite Saturday morning activity. Everything is local and fresh and I think there’s an especially good baked goods selection. The vendors fill up Market Square with produce and groceries as well as art and gifts. Plus, garage parking is free at City Hall during the farmers’ market!

    I have been here mid-week during happy hours and weekend evenings. I must say, happy hour is the time to be here. You will see a lot of military personnel having a grand Ol time. Come Saturday night to party, you might be a bit disappointed. Due to the location, there is plenty of parking, and easily metro accessible. During the winter months, there is an ice rink that is very family friendly.

    Tucked out of the way (but plenty of parking close by), this is a gem of a small art gallery. The exhibits I've seen so far have been wonderful. It's not very big, but well worth the time to visit.

    I grew up in Reston and still have family in the area. When I was there, the Saturday market at Lake Anne was more of a craft fair. I was very happy to see they have a full-blown farmers market now. We stopped by in November on what I think was their last or second to last market of the season. There were plenty of vendors selling everything from produce to baked goods to meat. I did notice that several vendors were from other states, so they don't necessarily restrict it to very local purveyors. Definitely a nice farmers market with a wide selection and friendly vibe.

    ...of old and new, art, furniture and jewelry! The quality of the merchandise makes this well worth it to spend some extra time browsing for that special little something! The staff was courteous and helpful.
