“Great outdoor mall area with plenty of restaurants, stores, and activities right outside of Gillette stadium. It's also grown a lot in the last few years with new stores all the time.”
“They do a nice job with marketing/promotion. It’s an upscale outdoor mall in Chestnut Hill so it’s obviously expensive. There’s a new section now with arcteryx and other stores/a workout place. They often do events or offerings like free ice cream or dog treats!”
“An oasis off Route 9 for coffee, food, groceries, a great gym and even, perhaps some therapy at Beth Israel Lahey Medical Center. Great parking, easy entrance off the highway, and completely handicap accessible.”
“The village shops yes the lore here is the village shops were established sometime after Shay's rebellion in 1684 there used to be a place called caldor this was back in the '80s I know that's somewhat of a 200-year jump but you're just going to have to deal with it but the village shops they got it all they got gourmet garden they got Marshalls they got a couple other restaurants they got Banks they got Shaw's they have a UPS store they have a McDonald's they have good parking good lighting they have it all get down there get down there bring your family and actually I have it's been awhile since I saw it no skateboards allowed so if you're Tony hawk in training then get on your skateboard and get down there PS don't litter don't be a jeet”
“The new Oath Pizza is very good. Best of all.
Also Roch Brother supermarket is nearby, and young teenagers are very helpful with packaging and carrying or picking up the carts.”
“Home to Micro Center, Trader Joe's and other businesses. Ample parking, easy to reach from memorial drive. Slightly more difficult by T, but not too far a walk from Central or Harvard squares.”
“Nice collection of useful stores at a convenient location off Route 9. Groceries, fast food, UPS, fitness - it's all there in one location. There is usually plenty of free parking available. The plaza can be crowded during busy/peak hours but parking is generally not an issue. It's fairly new and clean with various affordable stores available.
Most stores provide good service but obviously depends on the store and timing.
Overall good stop to shop across a variety of different stores with a varied range of options.”
“I was surprised how large this store inside since the parking lot is small. I have found this store , my first visit, VERY clean. Just to look at the fresh produce , bakery, deli , and other items made me to buy more than I intended.
The store is very well organized with plenty of space to walk around and shop.
Great job to all who work there !! and Thank you !!”

“I visit the Walpole mall at least two or three times a month. I take advantage of many of the stores. When I'm there I go into Panda Express for lunch. I love their food. I will run over to Old Navy and pick up new pair of jeans, Kohl's for sephora, PetSmart, if I need anything for my cat, then I will finish up my grocery shopping at Aldi. If I have a little extra money, or I just feel like getting a new book, I will run into Barnes & Noble. There are so many other places there that I haven't tried yet. I really want to stop into Five Guys. It smells so good walking by. I also Stop in Five Below when I need a few odds and ends. I highly recommend this Shopping Center.”
“Great place to go shopping if you can find parking. My wife and I circled the parking lot for a 1/2 hour and gave up. That said, again...it's really nice if you can get out of your car.”
“During the holiday season, it’s a tradition for our family to take pictures with Santa, and this year’s experience at Chestnut Hill Mall was so wonderful that I felt compelled to leave a review.
From start to finish, the entire team was incredibly warm and welcoming, making the whole experience truly special. We have three young children, and the photographer, Jessica, was amazingly patient and thoughtful. She took her time to help the kids feel comfortable, encouraged them to smile and look at the camera, and never rushed the process. Santa was also very warm and engaging, interacting with the kids in such a natural and kind way.
Brandy was great during the photo selection process, clearly explaining the different options and helping us choose what worked best for our family. She was wonderful, super nice, calm, and patient throughout everything.
In the end, we had a fantastic experience and are very happy with the photos. What really stood out to me was something Jessica said: that it’s really about creating memories, and that truly sums it up.
On top of that, the mall itself had a great promotion encouraging app downloads. Anthony and Diane were so friendly and welcoming at the entrance, taking the time to explain the promotion and making us feel genuinely appreciated as a family.
Overall, Chestnut Hill Mall has an amazing team that clearly cares about creating a positive, family-friendly experience. Thank you all for helping us make such special holiday memories!”
“I am a fan of this Lowes. It has a good selection and many times I have ended up chatting and laughing with the folks in the paint department. It must be the fumes, always a fun time there! Haha. A guy in lumber and plumbing also very helpful. It could use better inventory management bc sometimes out of things, but often there are other choices. Good easy parking.”
“My best friend and I come here to eat at the Chinese restaurant Mandarin. It's pretty good. They have a lunch special. It's pleasant and not expensive. I ate too much today . They sure have leave out full. I got the rice and chicken fingers and spare ribs. My friend got that delicious noodle soup. It was huge .She finished the whole thing.”
“Mind ur business and you'll be ok type of place.. security will cuss u out over here till the point of embarrassment.. All Stores inside are Ok..yes Great finds in Marshall's”
“I make a 45 minute drive every time just to come to this store. Worth it. The selection is just outrageous. If you go there and can't find what you want it's only because they sold out. Great team of people too.”
“I love this Dollar tree here. It's always stocked the most stocked Dollar tree within 5 plus miles. Also has the Stop & Shop next door. And I noticed a buffet restaurant at the rightside end of the mall I'll be checking out soon.”
“1A market is a great little shop.....the friendliest guys to direct you to almost anything you need , and more , from your local convenience store. Cheap çiggs , Decent selection wine & the luckiest lotto in norwood!!!!”
“Awesome area to shop in! There are plenty of nice places to shop and eat. This place is sort of tucked away off of I95 on Needham Street/Highland Avenue. Five Guys Burgers is in this area, too! Stop and Shop has a nice little "healthy" super market where you can buy lots of healthy foods. There are also auto parts shops and a couple of Jiffy Lube type places to have your oil changed. This is an "upscale" area as is all of Newton/Needham. The only issue is the massive road construction on Highland Avenue. It is a MAJOR PROBLEM!!! I have no idea when they are supposed to complete the project, but, the road is almost impassable. It really is in awful shape due to the construction. We can only hope and pray that when it is finally completed, that they will COMPLETEY REPAVE this road (Highland Avenue) so it is paved with fresh, new sparkling clean asphalt. How refreshing that would be for the people who live, work and shop in this area.”
“Newton Nexus is a great, well-kept, small open-air shopping center that is highly convenient for a quick stop. It offers a useful selection of groceries, clothing, and various eateries. It's a nice place to walk around and enjoy the different businesses, like Pressed Cafe and Dave's Hot Chicken.
The stores are easily accessible, which makes for a quick and pleasant visit. The only minor drawback is that parking can sometimes be tough due to its popularity. Overall, a clean, modern, and essential plaza for the neighborhood.”
“Longwood Galleria is a busy spot right next to Boston’s famous hospitals and schools. It’s a place where you can:
- Live in apartments, stay at a hotel, or just visit for shopping and food.
- Find nearly 15 restaurants, fast food places, and coffee shops.
- Eat burgers, pizza, subs, Indian food, sushi, and drink coffee or boba tea.
- Get everyday things at CVS or grab cash from an ATM.
- Use a parking garage that's open all the time.
It’s easy to get to, and people here are usually doctors, students, visitors, and families. The food court is great for quick meals on busy days, and the whole place is made for convenience, not fancy shopping.”
“STAPLES is in R K. I use them for all office stuff. Can't help but still use Amazon for everyday tech. It's just cheaper. But I'm still in Staples all the time, especially for shipping and supplies.”
“I love this place! I personally have my Skin Care office here on the 2nd floor so I’m happy with grocery, pharmacy & bank just right here!! Amazing clientele in town!!”
“The village mall, serves the
people of a few towns. It's not an indoor mall. It's a large plaza in a semi horse shoe shape. There's plenty of stores to fill the needs however, Braintree mall is better as we as, a few malls in the area. The new area in Westwood has many stores that are good. This place needs better dining and better below forty clothing for men.”
“Sichuan Gourmet is excellent Western Chinese cuisine and it's conveniently located in our neighborhood. I've never gotten a dish that was less than excellent.”
“Dunkins', Big Y, Dollar Tree, a fitness club, and a hair salon in this plaza. And literally next door a Monro Car care center, and gas station half a block further”

“I don't go out much to do my shopping. And the few times I do, I don't really find myself there. But at home it was quite the opposite. I loved it and I enjoy it from now on. The first observation is that they are well organized. they number everything and we always find the articles in the right place. the fresh product section is super well organized. we can not go astray. even on the floor of wines and other alcoholic beverages. we can not pretend to waste our time there by doing our courses on the contrary we gain a lot. they have so many employees who are everything There is no shortage of time on the shelves when you need it to find a very nice place.”
