Within that vast area it has around 180 stores, and is one of the few malls of its kind to be designed with a racetrack floor plan.

The mall is home to 6 department stores of J.C. Penney, Marshalls, Bed Bath & Beyond, Neiman Marcus Last Call Clearance Center, Burlington Coat Factory and Saks Fifth Avenue Off 5th. As well as these there are nearly 180 other retail outlets to choose from, covering every genre imaginable and with something for everyone no matter their style, taste or budget.

Popular stores include Abercrombie & Fitch, Bath & Body Works, Old Navy, Nike Factory Outlet, Nine West, Vans, Hollister, Skechers, Tommy Hilfiger and G by Guess.

There's a huge range of entertainment options suitable for the whole family, with a much wider selection than many other shopping malls. Options include Woodward Skatepark, Lunar Mini Golf, Island Carousel and of course, the obligatory movie theatre. In this case it's an AMC Theatres complex that's located just outside the main building in the courtyard of the shopping area.

Eateries on offer include Rainforest Cafy, Smoothies Paradise, Burger King, Cinnabon, Starbucks, Sbarro, Panda Express, Big Buck's Restaurant, Ritzy's, Steak n Shake and Chuck E Cheese, to name but a few.

The mall is also home to a number of events and promotions throughout the year, particularly seasonal ones so make sure to check the calendar to see what's coming up.

Grapevine Mills is open throughout the year, with opening hours being 10am to 9:30pm Monday to Saturday and from 11am until 7pm on Sundays. Individual store and restaurant opening hours can vary so be sure to check first, and it's also worth bearing in mind that seasonal and holiday hours will often be different as well. The mall also opens early each morning to accommodate their Mall Walkers club, which gives people the chance to get their daily exercise in.

Grapevine Mills is a particularly popular shopping mall, and with such a great selection of stores, services and food outlets it isn't hard to see why. It serves the surrounding community and beyond, and draws people from all over. It's well worth the trip for tourists and locals alike.
