Malls are malls. They're all essentially the same, but their very familiarity is what makes them so comforting. You know if you go to a mall you're going to find a large collection of stores and probably find whatever it is that you're looking for. So whether you're looking for a Valentines gift certificate or a prom dress, if you live in or are visiting the Fort Wayne, Indiana area when you need it, there's a mall you can go to. It's called Glenbrook Square. This article will let you know some of the shops and services you'll find there, since each mall is slightly different.
Shops
The Glenbrook Square Mall is the second largest mall in all of Indiana. It has over 150 stores covering your shopping needs from wire cutters (which you can get at Sears), to baby clothes (try Gymboree or the Children's Place). Stores at Glenbrook Square fall into one of fifteen categories: women's clothing, accessories, shoes, men's apparel, children's wear, specialty, fitness, electronics, toys, jewelry, gift, beauty, and department. You'll find many familiar chains represented here, such as Banana Republic and Macy's, as well as local specialty stores like Earthware and Innovative Smoking.
Restaurants
A proper perusal of such a large mall will take all day, so it's important to have dining options for shoppers who don't want to leave the mall when the hunger pangs start in. You can stop in for a quick snack and sit at the patio furniture, Toronto-familiar franchises like Subway or Blondie's Cookies, or you can sit down and have a more relaxing meal. There are several eat-in restaurants in the mall, including popular favorites like Red Robin and TGI Friday's. You can even park your kids as the play area while you snack.
Other Businesses
The major appeal of malls is that you can do more than just shop in them. They're also home to service companies where you can do errands like look at the real estate listings for Mississauga condominiums or open a checking account. Some of the things you can get done at Glenbrook Square include getting a tattoo or piercing, arranging to have a new tub installed, get a massage or haircut, be fitted for eye glasses, mail packages, buy a cell phone, and get your car washed.
Mall Services
Good malls know that they have to do more than sell gardening hand tools to get the attention of customers. That's why at Glenbrook Square you can buy a global gift certificate good at any store or attend free product demonstrations and charity events. You can also store your luggage, rent a stroller or wheelchair, and book a tour for a group of out-of-towners.
