Bay Street Emeryville

Would be nice if they offered family friendly bathrooms. No baby changing stations anywhere. Had to go to Barnes and Noble to use a changing table.

We went during the Christmas market event and it was very nice. They even had a lama petting booth. During regular times, the mall looks pretty nice with all of its outdoor decor and seating areas. However, I will never forget parking garage elevator #4. It was the scariest elevator I have ever been on. It opened the doors before stopping, and sometimes it only opened the doors halfway upon arriving to a floor. It also jerked up and down at random times, even when it was stopped at a floor. Also, it smelled like raw fish mixed with other bad odors.

Haven't been here in a year or two, and now I see so many new shops that are open!! I love that AMC and Barnes and Noble are still there! Went to check out the new Miniso, it's pretty big! Love it! Going ro check out the restaurants later.

A surprise package. I happened to be there by accident and never expected a mall of this stare and quality. Notable places were the VR place, full of kids noise, then pepple indian restaurant..that looked cool n premium. A Korean Asian fusion place was new to me, and finally a new brand in ice cream.. .a lot of regular places like shack shack etc are there. Just close by, you have apple store, philz coffee, purple..a regular high end mall stores... place has been built new and you can also see band getting ready fir the evening drill..I did not stay that long to see them doing live performance but I van image the fun of being at the second floor in open air and having favorite food and drinks...A must try for people who look for cool n fun places in bay area!!!!

Still developing but a great spot to spend an entire day doing various activities. The street offers many high branded stores (pink, express men, sunglass hut..) for clothes, shades and others. It has a huge Barnes and Nobles book store to hangout if interesting in checking out new books and AMC right next to it to watch movies of interest, IKEA right next to the Bay Street. The only downside I would say is that parking is a bit expensive, no exclusive charging stations for EV cars despite of paid parking. Parking details are no where mentioned. A lot of things are in walkable distance like outlet stores, Trader Joe’s and so on. Definitely recommend it.

This place is a bit sanitized but with cleanliness comes godliness or in this case way less crime. Although there isn’t any grime either. And lets be real grime is 30% of the hipster appeal. Go to Tesmescal or the lake for your grime. Come here for an American mall. Like one you would find back east. Them adding beer, outdoor fire, and plenty of TVs for sports makes it essentially an outdoor sports bar
