Huge mall - anything and everything you may need to do, you can do here. The place is huge so take good note of where you parked. After renovations the place is much more easy to visit - the corridors are enormous - it feels like an airport these days :D
A variety of shops for every kind of person. Outdoor equipment, fashion to bring down the streets, shops for everyday needs, entertainment section and lots of good food. Atmosphere that is welcoming and relaxed. Coffee houses and lots of ice cream. A place to spend the whole day at. Bring the kids along.
This mall is very huge. It has so many shops for groceries, clothes, furniture, shoes, cosmetics, books. A variety of restaurants. It is quite easy to get lost in this mall but fortunately there is technology to help you find stores quickly and help desks everywhere. There is a lot of parking space and very inexpensive too. It's child friendly, in fact the whole family can come here and have fun.
Very huge mall.everything u can think of in one place but can become very crowded so take your time and don't be in a hurry when u come here. The upgrades looks amazing and they really out did themselves in making the place more appealing. Walkways are bigger and layout is awesome. The decor and bathrooms are clean neat and almost futuristic. Love it
This place has everything - every imaginable item that anyone would ever want! It is BIG! It is BOLD! Let's Face It: IT IS BETTER THAN SHALL WE ESTIMATE, 99% of the other shopping malls on our PLANET EARTH. Frankly, it amazes me. THEIR DISPLAYS are OUTSTANDING! The management is their to ensure that their customers are happy; they are available - even when it may not be their regular hours. What did the two of them say; " Come on in, we should have a picture with each of you!" Whoa! How welcoming can you get. Hey! It works for me.😁 Yes, indeed ‼️
Best mall in Pretoria. Most all major stores from food, fashion, tech and more are in here. Incredibly beautiful place with a small park in the middle to add to it's beauty. Parking also vastly available due to mall size and no more than R10 for 4 hours.
The mall is much nicer since its upgrade. It is very large and has a big selection of shops. There is even a Food lovers market within the mall. But its too overcrowded on the weekends, so if you arent into that, go to a smaller mall or center. What i do love is that they have a Muslim Praying Facility that is large and caters for larger crowds, so that is a Plus for the Muslim faith.
First time visiting the mall since the renovations. Beautiful, clean , more stores and ample parking. Nothing more than I need out of a shopping experience. Well planned!
Great shopping centre that offers one of the widest shop varieties. It has a huge entertainment area and is extremely busy always. The movies are also one of the best. It has been upgraded and offers even more shops. It is very big so wear flat shoes when out for a day of shopping.
Very busy and a confusing layout if you don't know the place. Lots of stores though. Parking got more expensive with the recent upgrades. Definitely not a place you go for quick stops.
Update 17 Sep 2017: Still confusing. Looking for a specific shop is hellishly difficult as there are no maps or info stalls (and if there is I didn't find them).
There are a ton of signs to point you in the general direction of the bathrooms, until you get to the vicinity of it, then the signs seem to disappear. I had to eventually ask a security guard only to be pointed right round the corner into an unmarked alleyway.
The website is useless: first time on my iPhone the Menlyn "loading" pic never disappeared. After I refreshed I was able to search but pressing back on your phone doesn't take you back to the store listing, it takes you back to the general home page. Then you have to tap menu --> Store listing --> Search again.
The map also doesn't seem to work that great on a mobile phone. You can't search the map and when you tap once it kinda zooms in where you finger touched (but not in the good way Google Maps / Apple Maps work).
Frustrating. Especially if you have kids and want to make it a quick in-out.
Wonderful now that it has been renovated. Wide passages and large spacious shops. A good place to get some walking exercise! Wear your gym shoes!
The place got bigger and better than the last time I went there. It was an awesome experience with lots to do, movies and shopping. The place to be
Its Big, beautiful, there isn't a store you cannot find here, their on-site staff is kind (unless you are a skateboarder)
But they have a lot of skateboarding stores to compensate for that. Their food court offers a variety of goods. Well done to them
Has everything anyone can need under 1 roof. Good security. Great parking. Helpful staff and much much more
Plenty of parking, but be prepared to pay for both the open or undercover parking. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes for plenty of walking when visiting this expansive shopping centre. Movie theater and a great food court with most of the well known restaurant and take-away franchises present. Shopping for clothing or shoes or jewelery is a fun with all the well known retailers and several boutiques present under one roof. Grocery shopping is a pleasure with most the well known supermarkets grouped together in one section of the mall. Great for comparing prices! For a great day of shopping you cannot go wrong at Menlyn Park Shopping centre.
The new revamped Menlyn Mall is spacious. There is no longer a problem finding parking as was the case before the upgrade. There's lots of shops and no shortage of choices when it comes to restaurants.
I would have given a 5 star review if not for the "up" escalator near Checkers which was not functioning last night.
4 months ago I posted this review: "This shopping centre interior is in dire need of some natural light and plants and/or outside spaces." The new Menlyn Park Shopping Centre has addressed all of these issues and the product is nothing short of spectacular. The interior is relatively simple as far as malls go, but it doesn't feel cramped and the abundance of natural light makes for a pleasant experience. The academically inclined designer will disagree, I'm sure - malls are just not what is aimed for in terms of a proper consumer experience. The reality is, however, that it's lovely being here. And I'm planning on coming back until I have discovered every nook and cranny of it.
Menlyn Park Shopping Centre markets themselves as one of Africa’s most unique shopping experience, offering the greatest variety with over 500 stores.
Menlyn recently revamped with the goal to anticipating shoppers’ needs and to provide not just a shopping destination, but a full-service experience.
Some of the additional services that Menlyn made available to shoppers are:
CENTRAL PARK - Food court and restaurants galore! Name it, it there!
ELECTRIC CAR PARKING - Electric car can now be charged at Menlyn Park
VIP LOUNGE - VIP parking area that also gives you access to a VIP lounge
It's huge & it has it all (except a Starbucks). It has great open space, so even in busy times, it doesn't feel so busy. There's a wonderful square with entertainment for kids - be sure to pack some dry clothing though.
If you're not up for a lengthy shopping experience and don't know the mall well, you might find yourself walking very far to get to what you want.
After the drastic upgrade I am seriously impressed. Many small shops have opened up, but still offer quality products. A few restaurants have been added to their portfolio and the redesign has seen much more natural light and "room to breath" being added. With ample parking and easy access from many streets, I will be coming here again and again.
