Lima Mall is the premier shopping destination in Allen County, featuring over 60 retail, dining, and entertainment options. It hosts numerous events throughout the year, keeping guests engaged and returning often. While some reviews mention a decline in variety, particularly with the absence of Macy's and limited selections at other stores like Penny's, many still appreciate the mall's maintained condition and the presence of popular spots like Books-A-Million. Visitors enjoy the pleasant smells from food vendors like Auntie Anne's Pretzels. Although there are concerns about black mold and the overall warmth of the mall, it remains a valued place for shopping and community activities, open seven days a week.
