Have I reached the point in my Yelp career where I'm reviewing malls? Oh well, because the Natick Mall is definitely worth a respectable review! This is one of my fave malls in the Greater Boston area, and you'll find everything here from high end boutiques like Louis Vuitton and Hermes to more affordable staples like American Eagle and Hot Topic. There's something for everyone no matter your budget, and you'll have a wonderful time shopping in this sparkling clean building!
They recently underwent some renovations, and while the mall itself is basically the same, they've spruced up the common sitting areas, where you can find a calm respite from your hectic shopping day, complete with cozy couches, comfy chairs, and plenty of outlets to charge your devices! I also really loved the new bathrooms located on the first floor of the mall across from the Nordstrom's flagship store. This is easily the fanciest mall bathroom I've ever been in (see photo), and I loved it! I mean, a chandelier and full sitting area?! Swanky!
In addition to a wide array of shops, there are also a ton of dining options. Yes, they have a small food court, but I would recommend Natick's outpost of popular Boston restaurant Met Bar for an elevated take on a casual burger restaurants, or Bazile, the newly refurbished Nordstrom restaurant, which has healthy salads, pizzas, and sandwiches to keep you refueled and ready to take on your shopping list. They also have a PF Chang's as well, plus a few popup cafes (the one that sells crepes and gelato is AMAZING), a conveyor belt sushi restaurants, and a Red Mango frozen yogurt shop. You won't leave hungry, that's for sure!
Natick Mall is a wonderful place to shop, especially as the holidays draw near. You'll find something for everyone on your list in this gorgeous shopping paradise, and I couldn't recommend it enough!
