Shopping Centers & Malls in Independence, MO

“Really cool mall. It was pretty dead when I was there. A great selection of stores. Plenty of places to eat including some great treats. The center of the mall has the COOLEST area for kids. Looked like something out of a story book. Had some arcade games in it and a really cool "mossy" looking bridge. I can see why people would be here for hours between the stores and food and big play area for the kiddos.”

“Nice enough outdoor mall.

We almost always just go there for the movie theater with friends who live nearby. The AMC Independence 20 Commons - a reasonably nice theater with stadium seating, the nicest theater in this area of the metro, check out their review if interested.

They have a Best Buy and a Barnes & Noble next door if you need big chain electronics or books.

There is a coffee shop in the Barnes & Noble, it makes a decent place to kill some time if you are waiting for a movie time or to meet someone.

They used to have some good food in the strip up front, but I am not aware of anything worthwhile any longer since those closed.

There is a Kohl's and there are a few other assorted things like department store type places, but nothing that really stands out in mind to mention unless you specifically need them.”

“I was in need of 30" shoe laces and had been searching high and low. I walked into Tradehome and Gregory came to the rescue! He went in the storeroom and rounded up several extra pairs of laces. Not only did he find the length I needed, he traded out the ones I had with the new ones. For no charge. And all with a great attitude and a smile! Kudos to Gregory!”
