User Reviews for Oakbrook Center

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Great location, great stores, nicely landscaped (although I do think that has gone down a little in the past few years). It is a more upscale mall, so of course some of the stores can be expensive, but there are plenty of resaonably-priced shops as well. And lots of great restaurants. So if it's too expensive, just window shop, have a nice meal, and head to Walmart to do your shopping.

Pros: Tons of great store and restaurants

Cons: Definitely short on parking. Here's a tip - park in the Citibank lot by Northeast side of Nordstroms and walk over!

Contrary to the 1st reviewer's opinion, this place does "not" stink. I and 24 million other people do like shopping there. Yes, it is exspensive, but what do you expect from a mall that has top of the line retail stores like Burberry and Tifanny's? Besides, not every store is a Burberry or Tiffany's, they do have an American Eagle and a Gap and even a Sears. Also, the mall is beautifully landscaped with wonderful artchitecture, and it's enjoyable just strolling around window shopping. I recently went there before a polo match and found it to be a great place for killing time.

Pros: Atmosphere, Service, Selection

Cons: Somewhat exspensive

Oakbrook is the only place that I have to go to find what I need. They have everything and the atmosphere is great!

I enjoy all the stores in the mall. I usually spend more than 2 hours just window shopping. My favs are Fields, Nordstrom and Maggiano's Italian Restaurant for lunch.

Pros: lots of parking

Cons: crowds on weekend

Editor's Review

Shopping is an all-weather sport at this extensively landscaped outdoor mall.  See the full editorial review.
