Kyova Mall is an enclosed shopping mall with stores, dining and entertainment for shoppers


Kyova Mall is located outside of Ashland, Kentucky. The mall opened in 1988 as Cedar Knoll Galleria but became a dead mall as it struggled to keep tenants. In 2005 the mall was redeveloped and traffic has increased to the mall.

The original mall was developed on the site of a former golf course and was approximately 600,000 square feet in size. The mall was not convenient for Ashlands residents even thought it was located near Interstate 64. By 2001 the food court had no restaurant and Kmart's bankruptcy forced the closure of Kmart in the mall.

The mall was purchased by Eggleston Associates in 2005 and redevelopments of the mall began. The mall was renamed Kyova Mall, a new roof was installed, and plans for a movie theatre were discussed. It was decided that a Phoenix Theaters with 10 screens would opened in 2007.

The Mall has many clothing stores such as Wilma's dress shop the features bridal and formal wear. Sophia's features makeover, clothing and accessories and Lee Middleton Dolls. A Dollar tree is also located in the mall and Custom Metal Creations opened in 2009. As of 2009 there was only one vacancy in the food court after Chris' Gyros, Summit Brokerage Services and Knot Just Pretzels opened in the mall.

After a law was passed approving alcohol sales in the country to a 67% margin. This law was pushed by the mall management to help boost business by attracting new restaurants.

The restaurants that have opened in the mall are RJ Kahuna's Sports Bar & Grill, Callihan's American Pub and Grill is a pub with a two story mezzanine.
