Mercer Mall

Nice friendless place. Multiple food courts work good food. Awesome stores with amazing service

Would be a great location for a business. I stopped counting empty store fronts after 25. The parking lot looks and feels like it's underwent months of heavy artillery shelling. The lack of A/C in the mall itself isnt good either. They have a no guns, knives, vulfar shirt policy yet they sell guns, knives, vulgar shirts and sex toys within the mall.

This mall has really gone downhill since I moved away from the area. There are hardly any decent stores. I would rather drive to Beckley or Roanoke for a mall experience.

Mercer Mall, Mercer Mall. It's no wonder the local residents suffer from the highest rate of depression out of all 50 states. This place has hit the bottom of the barrel and the owners should just shutter and bulldoze the place. I grew up here and my memories of this place are awesome, but that was because I didn't know any better. Malls are going extinct and if you visit this place you'll understand why. The only upside to this place is that they recently opened a Planet Fitness, so now you can work out and maybe walk around and look at all the empty store fronts. This place could serve a much better role if they cut their losses and started over with a new idea. Mercer Mall used to be a happening place to go in Mercer County, but now it's just a sad reminder of just how rural people are here. There is a plus or two. Macado's serves alcohol and there's a gym now, but if you are looking to buy fashion or really anything else up to date, then steer clear of here. You're better off going to Walmart. The stores I've visited are overpriced and not worth the effort. If you've been to a shopping center in any relatively big city then you will see this place and weep. It seems to me the only people that benefit from this place are the old folks that like to power walk its perimeter. There is a separate movie theater, which is about the only good thing (other than the Planet Fitness). The land that the mall currently occupies would be much better suited for something else. Maybe a parking lot. The only reason I gave this place 2 stars is that it's basically the only place to go in the area that's not either a strip mall or a Walmart. Hobby Lobby is fun, but they are notoriously expensive. If you haven't been like most people and started shopping online and you are absolutely dead set on going to a shopping mall, then I'd suggest keep on driving to Charleston, Roanoke or even Winston Salem. Going to Mercer Mall just may invoke feelings of depression and a longing for times gone by. I'd suggest finding an alternative if you are trying to feel nostalgic.

Half of the mall is empty but the part open was good. Had lunch in Macados.
