    A beautiful mall with an abundance of great stores...NIKE, Puma, Foot Locker, Burlington, Uggs, Adidas and more. There's an amazing toy store with life size characters inside for the Dragon Ball Z fans. There's a food court upstairs. Free parking. Mass transit buses are available also.

    Massive mall filled with every store imaginable. Easy access by bus although the bus stop is a little farther away from the main entrance than I would like. Decent amount of seating with couches between shops to hang out and take a break from the shopping.

    Large mall, Loads of variation in shops, some great bargains. Can't believe how many people actually wear crocs with socks whilst walking about🤦🏽‍♂️🤯🤣 plenty of food places, we come across from NYC used the direct 111 bus from the NYC port authority to the mall, there's a bus every hour.

    This year I put 4 stars, because the first time I bought almost nothing. many things, but really nothing good. there was a sale at Disney, my favorite store for both children and adults, I always buy something. Big Parking lots. Food court on the second floor.

    So big with so many stores! I definitely recommend if you're looking to shop some big sales or grab some quick bites. It's nicely connected to Manhattan with the 111 or 115 taking you into the city in around 40-45 minutes. There's nice AC, lots of vending machines, spacious benches to sit. It's also very bright and airy with all the glass windows around. We were there on both Saturday and Sunday, and it wasn't too packed or overcrowded.

    Busiest mall in NJ with wide variety of stores. Free parking and bus service is also available from Penn station. If you come from NYC then use the direct 111 bus from the NYC port authority to the mall, there's a bus every hour. They also have cafeteria on second floor.

    Every store under the sun! Huge parking area. Excellent outlet prices. People come here with suitcases and shop til they drop! We have been coming for years. There are also great restaurants to get your energy back after so much shopping 😉

    With so much available space it's a shame not to have lockers to store shopping bags, it is one of the most convenient options for malls like this unless you rather people pop in buy from one store and just leave. If you are expecting people spend time you need to think of providing convenient services specifically considering geographic location of you at Newark there are many visitors whom do not drive and do not have the option to store their shopping bags inside their cars

    Doesn’t feel like a traditional outlet which is go because you can come here when the weather isn’t great. There are some good deals to be found here. Come when they first open to avoid the crowds. Only complaint is that the elevators are a little hidden.

    Outlet that is close from NYC. It takes only 30 minutes from Port Authority Bus Terminal in NYC. You can take bus 111, make sure you buy zone 5 ticket, otherwise you won’t be let onboard. Better buy roundtrip ticket as well, the cost is USD 14

    Lots of parking all around the mall. Store selection is OK. There are a lot of generic stores instead of brand specific stores. The Lego store is great. Aeropostale was excellent. Banana republic didn't have the petite section =(

    Jersey Garden is always good to visit during the holidays. Mall gets crowded during the holidays but that's the fun of shopping in holidays. Hugh parking lot with AMC theater next to it if you want to watch movie. You will find all the type of stores in this mall. Mall has two stories and food court is upstairs.

    Huge outlet and non-outlet Mall with plenty of parking, large food court and movie theather. All the famous brands are here, plus smaller chains and a Marshall's. This is a big destination for tourists flying from Newark, to the point that there are 3 hotels across from the mall.

    If you need pretty much anything especially clothing this is the place to be! Even if you are traveling through Newark airport and have some free time on a long layover, they have shuttles to take you here as it is only 9 minutes from the airport! Amazing selection of stores and brands! We like to come with my wife and daughter, to shop , spend some time and grab a bite to eat and always a frozen yogurt! Good prices, great selection and always clean and safe! I recommend this location!

    It is too much crowded and majority stores are not had a good different choice. Still it's worth visit. Now looks like more and more people are visiting. Majority stores are offering good discounts. One of the best thing they have lots of restroom and plenty of space for parking 🅿. All utilities are working perfectly fine in side mall. Majority highway are connecting with easy access from all sides of doors. Air conditioner was working fine.

    Very Big mall with lots of factory outlets, huge free parking space. Free wifi you can easily spend whole day here with whole family. For entertainment besides mall AMC theater is also available. If you are dependent on public transport please verify the schedule when the last bus departs else you will have to book a cab only.

  • 4/5 Eric Flapjack A. 2 years ago on Google
    Pretty big and impressive mall with lots of dining options and shopping to fit any taste. The decor is very contemporary and nearly every name brand store here is an Outlet Store, meaning they'll have stuff that comparable stores in other malls won't have. One drawback is there is not nearly enough seating for shoppers outside of the food court, forcing multiple areas to be overrun by people just sitting on the ground in the aisles.

    Used the charging station in the mall parking lot. Large and well lit. Many chargers by Tesla and Electrify America. Most worked. Area was clean and very convenient to the mall and its amenities.

  • 5/5 Jeff C. 2 years ago on Google
    Been here twice when while visiting NY from Ireland. Both times spent 6 hours shopping. No kidding. Will go again no doubt when travel starts again and I return to NY. Always come away with loads of bags and some very good bargains. Wear comfortable shoes though. Oh, and take a travel bag, the hand luggage kind on wheels to avoid carrying everything.

    For those of us coming from France, this shopping center is quite large, with clear directions for easy navigation and finding a store. The staff is highly skilled, young, and friendly. The prices and quality are simply breathtaking. Public transportation access is regular, making it very easy to reach whether you're coming from NYC or elsewhere.

    Jersey Gardens is such a great mall. Especially for tourists who come from all around the world. The mall looks and feels new when you walk in. There’s so many stores for those with different tastes in clothing. So many shoe stores with a good variety. The huts where the people force you to buy stuff can be very annoying. Almost every time I pass by here there’s some guy trying to sell me a product I’m not interested in. I love the food court and it’s great to get a bite after a long day of shopping. If you come here on the weekend, be prepared to go through the hassle of trying to find a good parking spot. I notice when I’m here I have to look for parking constantly. Aside from that, I love Jersey Gardens and it has a special place in my heart. I highly recommend you check out this mall if you haven’t done so!

    Great mall to shop at with a nice mix of shops. Ample parking, nice food court, lots of sales. I have not been to this mall in a while since it is a bit out of the way, but was totally worth the trip. The employees at all the stores we shopped at were extremely nice and helpful. The mall could use more seating throughout the mall for all the tired shoppers. This mall could also be a bit overwhelming for those used to smaller malls.

  • 5/5 Khala G. 2 years ago on Google
    This Outlet has something all malls need: A Pharmacy Box! Aside from great shops and eateries, this site has a convenient place to buy first aid needs. The Pharmacy Box has several locations in the mall. One can buy N95s, first aid needs, and menstrual products. Seeing this made me appreciate the mall more. Definitely will return, and maybe splurge on Coldstone Ice Cream or a treat from Cinnabon.

    The mall is large but you still won’t find there every store you would like to visit. The food option are here plenty but they are in the end all the same, higher prices and unhealthy food.

    The mall is back , it's crowded like a mall again! Everyone is out shopping 🛍️ it's so beautiful 😻 also there's an exclusive feature for those who like bouncy things there's a bounce mall in the lot while it's still warm out! Come have some fun there's new stores and if course Polo by Ralph Lauren Factory Outlet, Polo Ralph Lauren Children Store, Bed, Bath and Beyond...I can go on and on and on. Oh my gosh I love 💕 this mall, come out and have some fun!

    It's a big shopping mall with everything you want/need inside. Prices are usually good and they have nice discounts. All types of fast-foods and caffees are present so you have a lot to choose from. Also if you require good internet connection I think the AT&T area has the best one.

  • 5/5 Farida M. 4 months ago on Google
    All shopping under one big roof! Just 45 minutes by bus from NYC. All the designer outlet that I was looking for were here and there was not enough hours in a day to look at all the shops! Michael Kors, Coach, Kate Spade, Tory Burch …. The list is endless. Start early if you are going by bus. A return trip with cost $14 person. And it is a non stop drive. A taxi will cost around £70. Start early and be there for when the shop opens and have lunch and coffee breaks. There is a Cinnabon outlet there as well! And seeing Primark Madge me laugh especially when the bottom of the bag said ‘made in UK’! Lol! There are other shopping outlets around NYC but I did enjoy this one as it has the shops I was looking for.

    I was there for the first time 19 years ago and was absolutely thrilled by the huge range of shops and the very reasonable prices. Now I went for the second time this summer and this time it was just disappointing. First of all, forget about the $7 discount booklet. Many discounts are only for a certain amount or on a single product. And many shops don't even participate. We barely recouped the retail value. The shops aren't bad, but we only got the big bargains at Burlington's and Sketchers Store. I also didn't like the clothes in general. I found a lot of the clothes just boring and conventional. I thought I would ruin myself like last time, but no, I hardly bought anything. The food on offer is manageable but not bad. There is something for everyone. Still, there won't be a third time, it's not worth the drive and the time invested

    Been a while since being here and first time back since reopening from covid. Too big to walk in one day esp if you wanna take your time and browse in the stores. Only managed to make it around one lower section. Didnt make it to the entire lower section nor the upper. That's for another venture.

    The stores are great. You could find plenty of things, from clothing, to home goods. The only thing that I don't like about the mall are the food options. They are in no way diverse. It's hard to find something there that isn't drenched in oil or extremely salty.

    This is one of the few malls in the area that has not shown any loss of tenants. For a good reason there's a combination of outlet stores and current stores. They've updated the place since they first opened up. Now it seems more like a mall than a factory outlet in the past a lot of options for Great deals and great clearance prices. You going to get great deals but be prepared to spend money but you're going to walk out a lot of bags

    I came along with two other people for a half day of shopping and I went off on my own. I made purchases in 4 different stores and had a great time shopping on my own. The selection of stores is massive and are excellent quality. The food court is also exceptionally good. I actually can't wait to come back again

  • 4/5 Steven S. 2 months ago on Google • 24 reviews New
    I recently visited the Mall at Jersey Gardens in Elizabeth and had an overall fantastic shopping experience. The mall offers a wide variety of stores with excellent deals and a diverse selection of products. The ambiance is lively, and the staff is friendly and helpful. However, my excitement took a slight dip when I decided to grab a quick bite at Nathan's Hot Dogs. While the hot dogs were delicious and lived up to their reputation, I was disappointed by the quality of the accompanying fries. Unfortunately, they were quite underwhelming—soggy and lacked the crispiness I was hoping for. Despite the less-than-stellar fries, the Mall at Jersey Gardens remains a go-to destination for a satisfying shopping spree. I recommend exploring the diverse range of stores and brands, but perhaps consider other dining options for a more fulfilling meal experience.

  • 4/5 Galya B. 7 months ago on Google
    Huge mall with a lot of the known stores such as Nike, Levis, Adidas, Gap, Vans etc.. good selection and prices. The Levis store for example had a 50% off on the second item which makes it a really good deal. The mall itself is wide and easy to navigate, with a food court and toilet.

  • 5/5 Omar C. 1 year ago on Google
    This mall is good money and has good deals. I used to stay away from it but security has stepped up and I feel safe with my vehicle parked outside while I shop.

  • 5/5 Chuck E. 2 years ago on Google
    Had an excellent time shopping, the mall has virtually any store you can think of and multiple kiosks of specialty items. The mall has restaurants throughout with just about any kind of food you can think of. There are places in the mall that have rides and games for the kids making it more fun for them. Wear comfortable shoes because the mall is extremely large. Parking is great. With plenty of handicapped spaces and elevators so both levels can be accessed. Just about every store follows Covid protocol and require masks, some also take temperatures. All in all it's a great place to shop, eat or just hang out.

  • 5/5 ItsJoker 2 years ago on Google
    Prepare to dedicate a whole day to this mall. It's freaking massive! From the outside it don't look like much but holy s*** when you walk in...you can get lost pretty easily here. Overall, cool vibe and great place. I'm only an hour in and still haven't seen everything...

    Lots of variety, and nicely stocked, however they are very inattentive. They leave cloth pins everywhere. My friend stepped on a pin and got badly hurt. We reported to them, it took them over 30 minutes to get her a disinfectant. A week later I went the make some returns and get school shoes and there were still pins on the floor

  • 3/5 Miguel O. 2 years ago on Google
    A popular outlet shopping mall with lots of brands. The best discounts seem to be in American brand stores. The mall seems to get very full from lunch time to the late evening. There are a few fast food options and a sit down burger joint, expect very long lines in the food court and some stores. Go in the early morning for a more relaxed experience. But expect to stay all day shopping because of the hundreds of shops and deals!

  • 4/5 Howard D. 2 years ago on Google
    The mall was not crowded. The stores I visited were clean and sanitized. I didn't get the product I needed but the rep. went out of her way to get me a similar item. The sneakers that I finally got were less expensive. I wish I got her name for kudos.

  • 3/5 Rose L. 2 years ago on Google
    The only big reason I recommend coming to The Mills at Jersey Gardens is to see the sea lions. That's what makes this place unique. The sea lions are a lot of fun to watch. They are located on the northwestern edge of the pier. There's seating and a couple different vantage points to take in views of the animals. There are hundreds of them and they can be loud. If you visit, be prepared for the smell. It doesn't smell good. Very fishy, perhaps with some sea lion excrement mixed in too.
