500 W Farms Mall, Farmington“I love this mall . The variety of different stores made for a fun shopping experience. It was about 30 minute drive for me to get there but i'd happily make that ride again, so worth it .”
“Really cool place for people who have a great appreciation for antiques. Even if you don't buy anything it's really fun to look around and see what they have. Everyone was really nice, definitely a hidden gem. I will 100% visit frequently to see if I get luck and find something unique. Parking is tough since it's mostly side street parking. I parked a min away but it's not a problem at all since the area is super pretty. If you're in the area it's for sure worth going in and taking a look at what treasure you can find.”
“The atmosphere at Blue Back Square exudes a vibrant and modern charm with its well-maintained streets, contemporary architecture, and a lively ambiance.

“Grabbing some pizza with the king at Barb's..super nice super clean...heart place for a quite sit down lunch/or take out amazing grinders!!! Thank god haven't had a decent grinder on this area in forever!!”
“The parking lot always has a free place, there are plenty of ATM machines and a great grocery store. The grocery, Whole Foods, for you that don't know the brand, is expensive and tends to more natural foods, as the name implies. It's is not an everyday place nor to everyone. The restaurants are not specially good, but nearby you get good well known brands as Dunkin and Subway. The jewelry shop is good, as well as the beauty shop.”
“Nice shopping center. You have a new bank, a cellphone store, an office supply store, a restaurant, and a major discount store. All capable of, once parked, being able to walk to for most shoppers.It is well lite for evening shoppers.They have repaired the exit road potholes onto the Berlin turnpike and cut down the vegetation so that you now have clear visibility of traffic going north. In almost all cases, there is plenty of parking.”
“The bustling plaza offers a vibrant and diverse shopping experience, with an array of shops, restaurants, and entertainment options to explore. Its well-designed layout and modern architecture contribute to an inviting atmosphere for visitors. The plaza boasts ample parking spaces, ensuring convenience upon arrival.However, the convenience diminishes during peak hours as heavy traffic congestion builds up when exiting the premises. Navigating through the bottleneck becomes a frustrating experience, impacting the overall positive impression of the plaza. The traffic issue may deter potential patrons, especially those seeking a swift exit after an enjoyable shopping spree or dining experience.Despite the traffic challenge, the plaza's charm lies in its variety of offerings, creating a lively hub for socializing and retail therapy. To enhance the overall experience, the management could explore traffic management solutions or alternative exit routes to alleviate congestion during peak times. Despite the exit inconvenience, the plaza remains a worthwhile destination for those willing to navigate the traffic for the sake of its vibrant offerings.”

I'm in there all the time...Lynn, Christine and Vera are always nice to me...ALL the team is friendly and helpful. Good people there, they're always smiling. And equally as important..everything is priced right!”
“For the most part, I enjoy visiting this Market place, The stores are close together and easy to walk back and forth, put bags away in car/trunk etc, I would just be mindful of the traffic, sometimes drivers are speeding thru parking lot and others are homeless or on drugs walking around etc. looking suspicious..be safe and alert at all times, and don’t stop to talk unless your in the company of large crowds etc”
“DO NOT spend any money at Ted's Montana .Stop.Its a waste of time and money.Great parking tho,and why are there so many young children/kids running around yelling etc. at 930pm,every other store closes at 7 pm ,so really nothing else open .The fire place /pit was warm and nice.”
“I grew up going going here as a child. I remember feeding the ducks in the back pond. what precious memories. I go there now as an adult to ponder and read as it’s a quiet park behind the building. with a cute bridge, and one picnic table with a few benches.Does anybody know what happened to the ducks? They’re not there anymore.I wish more people took advantage of this beautiful location.Warmly,Dennis Schleicher”
“I went to Bon Chon restaurant. Absolutely the best food I've ever had! The service,cleanliness,and food are fantastic! I must say that parking is simply horrible! The lot is narrow, to go up and down aisles to try to find decent parking space. Very minimal handicapped spaces! If you have disabilities or can not walk well,it's best someone give you a ride there. Even a Uber is worth going to Bon Chon.”

676 Cromwell Ave, Rocky Hill“Great band last night, BUT, we couldn't hear them that well, they forgot a very important detail, which makes me think...they are not planners or thinkers...there were no speakers for the people sitting on the back half of the gazebo! The park is set up as 360 degrees. Very disappointed with their unprofessionalism.”

194 Buckland Hills Dr, Manchester“Came to walk around with a friend- lots of people at the mall shopping. Very happy to see people out shopping and keeping the bricks and mortar stores open! The windows of the stores were very appealing making me want to come back and shop! Great to see the new styles out!”

335 Cottage Grove Rd Route 218, Bloomfield“I go to Copaco Shopping Center in Bloomfield to Dollar Tree Stop & Shop Burlington Five Below CVS and Lowe's. I also like the Peppers Jamaican Bakery in Copaco Shopping Center in Bloomfield. I miss Eblen's when they went out of business. There's a Planet Fitness. I also miss GameStop as well. I even miss Boston Market at Copaco Shopping Center in Bloomfield so I will go to West Hartford on Farmington Avenue or Berlin Turnpike in Newington.”
“Best game found at GameStop that they have in arcades. Cruiz' N' Blast for the Nintendo Switch. A game I have been looking for over a year, wasting time driving everywhere, such as pawn shops.They ordered it for me, and although it wasn't the original cover that came with the game, I was happy, and spent more $$ looking for it, than it cost ! Happy with that whole location. Best Goodwill, compared to "Red, White, & Blue" Thrift store. I like talking to the usual people that go. Stop and Shop is good, as well as Now open but not 24/7 yet, is also good. Several other great stores in that location, and down one level as well where Wood & Tap is. Enjoy !”
“Convenient Plaza if you need to grab things from several places. TJMAXX, Shop Rite, Petsmart, Home Depot, Party City, etc. I prefer Shop Rite and all I have is Stop & Shop in my town. So coming here is a one stop shop to get several chores knocked of my list. One of my cats needed special renal diet food. So I could grocery shop and get his food at the same time.”

1200 Park St, Hartford“If you like the outdoors then you love this place. It's great for walking with or without a dog, there are a few seats for resting. You can bring a towel pick a spot and lay back with ease to exercise and rejuvenate.”
“I recently visited Target as I saw they sell an HP printer that I saw on the site. I have to say. I signed up for the debit card to receive a $50 instant credit. I signed up it did not give me the credit by email? Or however it's supposed to do it. Although I must say they had one printer left she went and got it for me. The manager on duty I commend. I showed her I signed up for the card. Right wrong or indifferent within targets policies. She issued me the gift cards so I could receive the discount on the printer. Customer service was excellent! A couple of employees were actually trying to figure out why it wasn't working. This trip was awesome. I felt well taken care of and walked out a very happy customer!!”
“Went to pick up my take out from Buffalo Wild Wings. Order was ready right away and when I got home we feasted on wings and I got a grilled chicken sandwich. Everything was so good.”
