Promising outdoor mall, where for some reason businesses just can’t thrive. The usual suspects seem to make it, the unique shops fail as quick as they arrive. Great splash pad for kids, highly recommend entertaining your toddler there.

Love finding hidden gems for places to shop eat hang out play a game outdoors. Had to grab pic of very creative Girl Scout dinosaur selling cookies 🤭

This shopping center has a few good stores, but the atmosphere and shopping experience is definitely impacted by stores boarded up with mismatched, warped, and rotting wood. So much potential, yet half of this place feels abandoned or post apocalyptic. It makes no sense as there are many successful shopping centers in the near vicinity so the consumers are there. This place is highly mismanaged.

My family went here tonight, and this is what it says exactly on the website. Join us Friday nights from 6:30 - 8:00 pm April 28 - June 23, 2023 for some FREE family fun. Each week, the activity will be held at a specific location around FTC - be sure to check the schedule each week! Come grab some dinner and enjoy activities like face painting, balloon twisting, characters visits, jugglers, clowns, photos with mermaids and more! The schedule* includes: June 2 - Jugglers - The Park The jugglers appear to be like 2 random people who just came to the park to juggle. No interest in entertaining anyone or having any sort of group activity. Street performers would be miles better than these guys. It says grab some dinner, but there’s no dinner to grab. It says enjoy activities, like face painting but there’s no face painting. It says balloon twisting but there’s no balloon twisting. It says character visits but there are no characters. It says clowns and photos with mermaids, but there are no clowns, no one taking pictures, and no mermaids. This is a complete waste of time and you should not put this on your website when you have no event. Literally the only thing there were are two random jugglers that look like they were just two random guys juggling by themselves. This event is horrible. Do not go!

Around 11 years ago, my family discovered this decently new shopping area and often went there as an alternative for going to the Frisco Mall, on days when we had less time. We primarily went there for Dillard's and The Container Store but we also loved the restaurants of Gloria's and Purple Cow (which is no longer there) and the play fountain. It's kind of dying out now, there aren't many store options, most got permanently closed. It has a nice atmosphere, but also kind of a ghost town vibe at the same time. I am very nostalgic for that area, since I've been going there since age 10, which is why I generously gave it 3 stars. But now, we primarily stick to the right side, Allen Town Center. It's vibrant, busy, and has tons of shops. We love Homegoods, Target, Top Golf, Macy's Outlet. But it makes me sad this this side is better than the Fairview side since it has so many good memories. It's just a dying 'mall' now with the exception of the department stores and Whole Foods.

Dillards textile showroom which has a vast area with abundant varieties of readymade garments for all ages for all seasons , though seem to be a bit costly. Also they can think of adding some more staff to help the customers to select from the excellent collections. Nice showroom. 👍

I suggested certain improvements/leases I think would help a half-dead center on Instagram, this was the reply I got “Thats not how it works unfortunately - we just dont open stores at shopping centers. They have to see the business sense of opening in a market. Those stores are not coming this far North of Dallas any time soon. We would love to have them - they do not believe there is enough business in suburban markets. You would do better to contact them and tell them you are no longer willing to drive to Dallas - they listen to consumers far more than potential landlords!” Such a condescending and unprofessional response that shows the kind of corruptness that is present within the management of this center. Management has no interest in competition - there’s three other centers within Allen that all do very well. Telling customers to cut all ties with businesses they shop at will not make them come to North Texas. It’ll decrease the presence of a demand from consumers this far north, and therefore make them even less likely to open businesses here. Telling me that “these stores will are not coming this far north of Dallas any time soon” is complete nonsense. Within recent years, certain businesses that used to be present at FTC relocated to nearby centers (Allen Outlets, Village at Allen, Watters Creek) and do very good business there. These stores will have more incentive to come to the area if demographics show a significant portion of business comes from this, and nearby Zip codes, and they get no business if we cut ties with them. Urban Outfitters, for example, operates its sister store in Watters Creek, and has been for years. Clearly they get business this far North of Dallas. I’ve worked at the Outlets across the highway enough to know there is a heavy demand for a Zara store north of Dallas. Overall, management of this mall is very unprofessional and unqualified for their positions they hold. I hope the Town of Fairview gets involved and makes sure they hire people who know how to run a shopping center. Watters Creek and the Dallas Galleria have been very vocal about how feedback from guests is important to enhancing the mall experience, but Fairview Town Center simply does not care and that is why their mall is half empty, with wallboards that have been up since 2010 decaying. Look it up, Galleria, NorthPark, and Watters Creek management has talked about how they have strategies to get top-tier stores to lease with them. Anyway, I will not be cutting my business with stores I have been shopping at for years, because your petty management would rather have me do that than take customer suggestions into consideration.

Good. Was busy. One of the few brick and mortar store left 🤔

The wife and I still enjoy IPIC..but sometimes we find some of them are falling apart. Almost turning into a dive bar because they won't invest in upkeep...especially in their restrooms. Yall can do better.

Nice area but ever busy. Several restaurants, I always go to the Dillard’s here. Not a big store, but always has most of what I need.

I love living here! I simply love the area where there's access to so many different shops and restaurants! The area is very clean compared to the other properties I've lived at and very quiet. Security is always around, so I feel very safe. I do look forward to being here for a long while! Y'all come and check them out!!!

Reviews prior to covid mention vacancies and store closings, now virtually nothing is open except the anchors. 2 weeks before Christmas there was no foot traffic, what would you expect with endless expanses of empty stores. FTC is not a lifestyle center, the excessive parking in the center makes FTC feel more like a couple of strip centers thrown together.

Such a classy locality ! Yet, very exclusive and a perfect place to spend an afternoon over the weekend or have a fun evening here any day... There's so much to do over here. I have lived in this locality over a month now and wouldn't want to move anywhere else !

Great shopping 🛍 center!! SAFE TRAVELS TO ALL!!!

I return here again and again. For every day shopping Whole Foods is always a treat. For entertainment, iPic is the only movie theater you'll every want.

Where have the stores gone? Something is always under construction. Not the place it once was not probably ever will be again. Tried to be an open concept North Park/Galleria, ended up as a bartender wasteland.

Although I did not do much exploring in this area there are so many cute little places and also plenty of big name shops. Defiantly somewhere you could spend lots of money!

Update 6/14/23: Things remain pretty much the same on this side. Not many new businesses, but some came in. Older restaurants got a makeover to a more up to date vibe. All in all still good place for shopping, dining, and date nights. Hopefully this place comes back to life!!!

They need to monitor To-go parking. Several times, I have ordered from Glorias or Pie 314 (even eaten there and seen the same car in to-go for over an hour) and I have to wait for a spot for 15-20min or drive way out of the way! Parking is horrible and when people feel entitled to ignore signs...bad for business

There is a lot missing here.... And a lot they could do with it.... Bringing in these odd ball stores that have to narrow of a market is only making it worse. Bring in more eateries and nice shopping stores.... And make sure people can actually read the signs... That helps too.

Could be a great center, but too many stores are empty. Still great places like The Container Store, Rally House, iPic, Whole Foods.

Fairly new Outdoor mall area. About half the stores are empty. Parking is very challenging. I can't imagine how bad it would be if all the stores where leased.

Lovely construction and place to be in but it so empty and quite , I thing they need minimum Starbucks there to make it lively

I love shopping here! Great bread, fresh organic fruits and good dairy selection!

What an abject failure. There are more closed down and abandoned shops than opened at this point. How can a developer screw up so massively on Stacy Road? Hope this gets demolished soon, the empty shops have wood outside that's rotting. Not a good look for Fairview. People drive from all over to go Allen Outlets, even across the street, that development with Target, Homegoods, etc does amazing business, but Fairview Town Center is a giant failure.

Lots of spots but limited variety. Macys was half empty of merchandise. It was like a overstock or outlet Marcus. Tj max fair store with the home goods attached. It’s not a runway max but still decent. Restaurant selection is from expected and chains to a few good spots. Great shopping other side of highway at the outlets.

I love coming for shopping and restaurants. Great place to walk around and enjoy the outdoors shopping.

Staff are eager to help. Stores have exactly what we were looking for and ample handicap parking.

For what I went in for and found it to be very clean fresh produce the restrooms are nice and clean the customer service is friendly I will be back

I came here for Whole Foods. Very nice shopping center. Good wealth of amenities and shops throughout the complex. Easy to navigate as well

This place is picking back up - almost died there a few years ago. It's weird to me that all the anchor stores block the view of any smaller stores that are in the middle, how am I supposed to know what's back there? Parking is always a little crazy as well, especially on the weekends.

Great place. Parking is a little tight and traffic is usually high but nice stores and awesome movie theater

This was my very first visit to Fairview Town Center it's where the JCPENNEY Department Store is located nearest to me. I didn't find what I wanted to purchase although it was reported online the item was in stock at this location. I was extremely disappointed the item I went to purchase wasn't in store. So I found something to use as a substitute yet it came no were near what I wanted. Well I'm a very disappointed and unsatisfied customer. Though would I recommend this location for future shoppers YES! Just call before going to the store if it's an item you found online. Blissful Shopping Everyone 🎊🎉🎊🎊🎉🛍🛍💵cash 💳 credit or debit and or gift card or certificate 🤗 Enjoy!
