Stonestown Galleria is one of the things I miss about the city. I moved to Seattle about a year ago, and have not found anything that quite fills its shoes. Not too say there aren't any great malls in Seattle, they're just not the same. As I write this post, I'm in SF wrapping up some last minute wedding plans, and of course, made time to shop in Stonestown. In less than hour, I left triumphant. From cute, glittery flip flops that I bought at Macy's for just 9 bucks, to a pair of slacks and simple tee that I got at Banana on reduction, I walked away feeling triumphant. The mall is rather small, but there are a number of stores that cater to my shopping needs. From Gap to Bebe to Nine West and Eddie Bauer, Guess, and Crate and Barrel there are lots of store to wander in and out of looking for treasures.

There are a lot of stores here. Once you visit them, you shouldn't be going back for another 2 weeks or so cause nothing would change. The entire mall is relatively expensive, but if you are in need of something there, buy it. It's a good place to just hang out and walk around. Their stores include Abercrombie and Fitch, Bath and Body Works, Sanrio, EB Games, and Limited Too.

Stonestown is probably one of the malls in San Francisco that people frequently go to. It is easy access by bus so you would see a large about of teenagers there. It has the popular and trendy stores here such as A&F, AE, Nordstrom, Macy's, and Gap. Aside from these, there is also Guess, Brookstone, Apple Store, Bebe, etc. It has a lot of variety and depending on your style, you would find stores that suits ur needs. The surrounding isn't that nice except for during the holiday seasons when they have the big tree, but the environment is so-so.

This is a great place to shop. There are big name departments stores/stores and other specialty shops here. There are a few schools nearby so you tend to see it busier in the afternoon. Some are intimidated by the teens but I've never seen it as a problem. There is an underground parking garage as well as parking surrounding the entire shopping center. The only complaint I have, is that there is one tiny elevator that takes you to all levels. One day, it was out of service but not clearly marked in the garage. After setting up the stroller and packing it in, I get to the door and see the most faint sign that it is out of order. When I finally get upstairs, I ask the security guard when it will be back in service and he responded that he didn't know it was out and that he didn't know when.

Stonetown has been through some massive restructuring in terms of store offerings. There's even an Apple Store, and with the merger of Compusa and Good Guys, you can pretty much find anything that you need at Stonetown's. There's a large number of clothing retailers, and a decent number of eating retailers. There's two floors of shopping, shopping, and more shopping. During the holidays it can be a real chore trying to go through all the traffic, and a lot of teeny boopers, as it's the local hangout for the neighboring schools. Parking is a real problem, as there are limited spaces even with the underground garages. Overall, it's a great place to shop, but leaves something to be desired with the above average prices at some of the higher end brands, and lack of parking spots.

This place is decent as prices can be cheap at times. I buy my shoes and clothes from here because I get a nice discount. I usually go to Macy as they have the best prices around. There are easy transportation to get there from MUNI bus or the train station. Overall, this mall is the best one in San Francisco.
