Hanes Mall

My wife and I brought our young grandkids here in the morning to enjoy a little adventure with them and to give their parents a break. While I wouldn’t call this a vibrant mall (there are several empty storefronts, some areas that could have been cleaner, and inconsistent air conditioning, we had a good time here. The variety of stores, food court, play area for small children, and carousel made for a fun visit.

I have seen this mall when it was in its prime in the 90s. This mall has really gone downhill over the years. The decor is dated, worn out, and looks dirty. The kiosks are not lively like they once were. The cookie factory took out the cookie oven where kids could stand and watch the cookies bake. At Christmas time the whole place would be decked out every inch to look like Santa's workshop. The elevator now sticks most of the time. The mall food court food is mediocre at best. Come on mall, I've been coming to this mall since I was 3 years old with my mom who always got me a cookie pop from the cookie house and I do the same thing with my kids now but it's not the same, it's lost it's magic. It used to have a pet store, williams and Sonoma, etc. Folks can walk the mall in the mornings and get coffee and mingle which is nice. Bring in some better stores and update the place drastically. Also have someone clean the glass and floors because it just looks nasty and dirty. This mall also has seen a lot of violence and gun shootings in the last few years so the security needs to be updated with security guards at the main entrances.

We went to once upon a child and the gentleman was very nice and helpful. The young man with the purple hair helped us spot a good deal. The lady in Journey had really good patience.

This is my second visit to this still EXTREMELY busy mall. When I went on January 3rd at about 3pm, the parking lot was absolutely loaded. Having to park back 25 rows because every spot is full is a great thing for this mall. Inside, there is just about anything you could need, from Hot Topic, H&M, Gap to Eddie Bauer, a huge food court, and three gigantic department stores to fill your needs. There's even a USPS store inside. Except for two wings once anchored by a big department store, there's no dead areas in this mall at all. There's very few empty stores here as well. One note is that JCPenney is the "middle" anchor store and so you will have to walk THROUGH JCPenney to get to the other half of the mall where the food court is (if you came in by Belk). Overall, this mall is fantastic. It's super spacious, was extremely clean, and had many kiosks, a merry-go-round, vending areas, plenty of benches and seating throughout. There was even a train roaming around the second floor! Incredibly neat. There were a lot of security guards roaming around as well which is a nice bonus for how busy this mall was when I went. If the two (of five) anchor stores that are closed off from the mal

Nothing like going to the mall right before Christmas doing last minute shopping. This is a two story mall. The place was decorated nice for Christmas. This place has a lot of stores. There is a little something for everyone to be found here. Lot of food options in the food court and outside the mall. Getting in the parking lot can be tricky.
