Scary

Just going in triggered an agoraphobia attack. Hope to never go there again. It does have benches outside, but the size of the parking lot is spooky. Drive away fast.

Destination Shopping

The plants and flowers are beautiful. There are great shops and restaurants. They have valet parking if you want it. Lots to do with the movie theatre and they always are having some sort of special event.

I'm thinking of going there for my birthday. Probably staying at the Holiday inn. How far is the mall from the hotel. Walking distance? Or is there a shuttle or taxi I'll have to take. Thanks in advance.

The mall is located between two major highways and is not walkable, although it is near the Holiday Inn on Route 17. Check with the front desk about a shuttle or other alternative, possibly a local cab service.

Hi myself and my 23 year old daughter are going to New York in October and we were wondering if it was worth our while taking a trip out to Westfield as she is very interested in buying bags and clothes and we were wondering if it was cheaper to shop there rather in New York.Many Thanks.

The big saving by shopping in New Jersey over New York is that there is no sales tax on clothing in New Jersey, so you save about 8% on everything wearable, including shoes.
