Awesome new Woolies Metro store now open in the new part of the centre with the new Aldi. It's there for when the centre proper is demolished in a year or so. Really cool little top up shop with a friendly team. Super quick to get on and out of too with 99 car parks directly underneath and escalators to get you to the shops. All very COVIDsafe.

Love the old school feel of this place, great little deli’s. Especially the Russian one, pick up some Latvian treats. It would be a shame if these places are lost to new developments.

Eastlakes Shopping Centre is like stepping back in time 30 years. Its feels so odd and out of place with built-up Rosebery and Zetland around the corner. I give it four stars simply because I enjoy going back in time and for once not seeing a bunch of the same franchised shops and restaurants you get every shopping centre.

Parking spots to tight high chance of your door being chipped from opening doors. Not much choice of shops. The one big plus is all food groceries (especially very affordable fruit and vegetables shop) are very cheap. There is a new shopping centre being built across the road opening in Q1 2021 but the existing shop owners are saying they are told rent will double and triple, so enjoy cheap grocery prices as long as they last...

Was here in May 2018. Totally retro and fun to explore. Go before some developer turns it into another glossy soulless space filled with chains and franchises, and all the Greek old men move off elsewhere for their endless chats. Anchored by Woolworths and Aldi, and ably supported by a multicultural cast of independent businesses - a few excellent fruit and veg stores (Eastlakes Fruit and Veg is a personal fav), Greek, Middle Eastern, Russian, Indian and Chinese grocery stores, walk-in butcher and fish monger, a couple of bakeries, cafe, Chinese restaurant, and assorted non-chain outlets.

The whole shopping centre is in desperate need of repair. Most of the shops were closed and it looks like the whole centre is about to be demolished. It’s in a really sorry state. But if you like dead or really old malls, then maybe check this out.

Shoppers park in loading bay and security do nothing. Don't expect to feel safe there because security is useless there.

You can find fresh fruits and vegetables here. The prices are reasonable. You can find Persian, Turkish and Russian food and groceries in its supermarkets. the Turkish restaurant has very tasty bread like Persian Barbari bread. Unfortunately, the shopping centre doesn’t smell good.

The remaining shops and their owners and staff are lovely, and an important part of the local community. However the state of disrepair and neglect has gotten much worse over the past few months. Dirty floors, pigeons flying through, rubbish and packing crates dumped in the middle of the centre and not removed for days on end... the list goes on. The kids' playground in particular is disgusting, with sand, dust, rubbish, discarded food scraps and bird droppings and feathers. Looks like it hasn't been properly cleaned in months. The centre website has been taken down, and the management office and phone number are never manned when I try, nor do the call back. A real shame, but I guess it's just another example of corporate greed doing it's thing.

Has some good shops, Budget Beaters, Woolworths, Donut King etc... But the centre cleaners should be sacked and replaced. They clearly are not doing their job. The floor needs a good buffing throughout for a start.

It really needs to be knocked down. I understand they are building a new centre opposite but this place has nothing at all and is very run down.

Nice small and convenient little shopping village.

a bit dark, dank and depressing

great you can buy stuff

Very good shopping centre could be slightly more renovated.

It is well known for people who have lived for years in eastern suburbs.. Lots of products from middle east and Arabic area... Halal butchery.. Halal meat.. I recommend new Arab visitors to go there if they are interested in the same products that they use in their countries.. I also recommend it to everyone foreign and Aussie people who are willing to try things from Arab culture!!

Run down shopping centre, no air conditioning with cheap variety shops. Run in and run out good for food shopping after work on the way home.

Such a quaint little shopping centre, even though you wouldn't know it was there unless you looked for it. I love all the eclectic shops and shop owners are very friendly and helpful

Now being renovated

Great bread at very reasonable prices that you won't find elsewhere. All the deli shops are fantastic. Would be sad to see this place replaced by chain stores.

A nice clean and spacious shopping centre offering a choice of restaurants and shopping.

This centre hasn't changed since 1986, overdue for much needed renovations. Restrooms haven't been attended to for about 10 years, car park is a shambles, the old woolies has only recently cleaned up its aisles, restocked continously, 2 delis are it's only saving grace. Looking forward to Eastlakes entering the future with its new development!

The shopping centre is a bit rundown but it still has a lot of retail outlets which is good for grocery shopping including butchers, Aldi, Woolworths, ethnic groceries. My kids enjoyed the playland while my wife was shopping.

First of all, the public toilet is really disturbing and disgusting as is never been look after nor renovated for decades. Second, the parking spot is so small so be ready if you scratch your car when you try to park here. This place obviously need an upgrade or at least a renovation as it's too old. Lastly, I gave two stars as it's convenient for the locals as it pretty much it has everything for daily needs.

Parking is easy. No crowds to fight through. Centre is aging what was once new is old and the colour long faded. You could nearly say histrionic. They is a lovely mixed cultural feel here. They are getting more trendy cafes but you can't sit outside as people are s smoking everywhere. Going to Aldi was the most colorful part of our trip and I don't like Aldi). There is also a Woolworths. My kids said it reminded them of shopping malls they have been to in India and Indonesia.

Great little shopping centre that has most of what you need for day to day life. For mobility impaired people, I suggest you go in a car and not try to use public transport as it is a bit of a hike.

What a disgrace! Apart from it being run down with very little now to offer, the cleanliness and state of the car park and amenities are inexcusable. The dumping of items throughout is a disgrace. Try to call Centre Management is a challenge. No one in the office/office closed. Bring in the health department.

Ruined by Crown was a great shopping centre for 50+years & great small businesses but smashed by greedy developers and ruined by nsw state planning during LNP term it's a disgrace & a shame for the people of the area

Shop is filthy with no air-conditioning and children's playgrounds never get cleaned, I have heard that the shopping centre is not being build because Woolworths still have another 2 years of lease. This shopping centre either needs to be fixed or needs to go! I'm sure Woolworths have plenty of money in the bank to find another location for the meantime. Stop delaying the development of the area over your profits... move out !

Good little centre. With everything you need There is Aldi, Woolies, post office, butch fruit shop and many others. Lots for a small ventre

Handy to public transport,plenty parking and not crowded

Update freshly New beautiful shopping mall lovely friendly people excellent community with lovlly people

Good place to buy vegies and eastern european goods

Good parking, reasonable prices, continental n asian grocery shops,

I would definitely recommend Eastlakes shopping Village. It's got everything you need like a dentist, medical centre and pharmacy and besides Woolworths and ALDI supermarkets there isb plenty of smaller family owned shops. This shopping centre is definately a One stop Shop.

Very complete and convenient. The woolworths is relatively more complete and supported by ethnic markets. There are halal butchery, south asian grocer, east (and south east) asian grocers, aldi, greek grocer, ME and european grocers, and many more.

In major need of upgrading, lighting poor and facilities no more than adequate

It is horrible

Fortunately Eastlakes Shopping Centre, will have a nice, new Chopping Center, our Eastlakes is chip and you can bay what ever you like, I'm very happy to live in Eastlakes

This place def needs and makeover, and I feel like it will after the apartments next door go up. Its decent for all your needs but just pales in comparison to the other shopping places in the east. When the makeover does happen: more parking is a must.

Good place for budget shopping.

It is a simple working class place full of honest hard working people and generally good prices. No bells and whistles.

Looking tired and dirty

Very dirty

Just have a bit of a rundown feeling throughout the whole shopping centre. Bathrooms are very average and make you not wanna touch anything. Not really somewhere I'd like to just hang around because of the nice vibe. Just get what you need and get out.

This place reminds me of my childhood. So much character and friendly people around. It's going to be a shame when they knock it down and replace it with another modern sterile development.

Good shops to by groceries

Could be cleaner

?

Need a huge renovation

This place is amazing. It's like you have stepped back into the early 80s. Local stores here and a Woolies and Aldi. Seriously this place is great.

Parking space is very narrowed to park a car!

Great shops

This place needs a renovation, old and dirty shopping centre, the toilets are next level filth.

Great for shopping.

Shoppers park in loading bay and security do nothing. Don't expect to feel safe there because security is useless there.

Supporting my local shops. This place has everything handy.

good selection of shops... but the worst car park with tight parking space

No parking

Parking lot is awful, traffic, fish shop smelly

A place in eastern suburbs where You can find halal meat and spices.

Really run down but looking forward to the new one being built on the other side of Evans rd

bad vibes

The shopping is quite small with some good shops for family needs .One little negative that it doesn’t have lifts so it is hard for old people or who has special conditions.

Shops inside are fine but the parking is very limited and small.

My dog was attacked by and of lead dog in the park at the shops (eastlakes reserve) I tried to protect my dog from the people so they proceeded to punch and kick me and call me names I won’t mention here. My dog has been attacked by 4 dogs in 2 years in eastlakes alone because my dog is on a lead and there dog is not. LEASH LAWS IN PLACE IN EASTLAKES!!!!! Someone needs to enforce this. My dog is now blind In one eye and nothing is done!!! My dog actually gets the blame because he is and American staffy. By appearance not by the law. That is discrimination and someone will get hurt.

Local store holders are all great! Friendly and catering for all your needs!!

A great little secret hidden away Eastlakes an alternative shopping experience.

absolutely awful. dangerous looking. carpark smells like homeless people use it as a toilet. avoid at all costs, except the aldi isn't bad. a blight on the area.

Handy older style upgrade needed Aldi and Woolworths

I only go there for my GP, otherwise won't step there so old, dirty and smelly.

A medium size shopping centre

Love this place! It's like a trip back to the 80s shopping centres of the suburbs. A good mix of big supermarkets and small businesses run by local community members. It will be sad to see this redeveloped...

There are two mart sells halal food, I love it

Under reconstruction

Parking lots too narrow

Needs a reno

Very convenient little shopping centre, so handy as I'm working just across the road at the moment

Just have a bit of a rundown feeling throughout the whole shopping centre. The floors look dirty. The walls are dirty. I feel really sad.

Run down but unusual shops & a bit different

Good shopping

Always have a nice time

Local shops always fun

Small and dingy I felt like I was in the western suburbs

Very cheap to Buy anything .

An old rattled dirty shopping complex in need of desperate make up. Parking is a shocker.....

Less variety

quite old shopping centre but has one Russia supermarket, worth to try

Good

The floors look dirty. The walls ARE dirty. And the whole place smells like a house full of dirty unwashed people. Not a place I'd visit on a regular basis. Signs stuck on walls haphazardly, and half ripped off - looks like they've been there like that for years.

Has an aldi.

There is limited, LOW CLEARANCE parking. A bit run down, dirty atmosphere.

This is one of the places preserved in time. The whole centre is a step back in time to the 80s and 90s. Authentic feel with the decor, layout, and retail shops. Would highly recommend if you want to do a 1980s retro party here.

Not the nicest ...

A real dump. Hope they renovate the building along with the new apartments.

Nice and quiet...

They should change their security personnel on a regular basis to stop the Junkies from knowing who is on, And how is not, Just for our safety and family well-being.

Ok local shopping centre.

Its old but not so bad but the security always follow me its so annoying I've never stole anything in my life. I feel really sad.

Easy to find All the shops

It's good for the importance weekly basis

Never busy. Great to pop in and out of.

Great shopping centre with lots of parking

Getting a bit old and run down. In desperate need of renovations.

Greta vibe good food for cheap and covid safe.

Good place have Arabic needs (Egyptian and Turkeys) shops You can found All you need veg, Halal meat, and groceries All in one place 😇😇

It's my favourite place to go shop as it's a walk away. I always find parking (which is free) however, sometimes it gets quite busy. Their parking needs one way signs.

Very good I love shopping there

Some decent shops. Not bad from the outside. The place requires a serious uplift on the inside.

The basics are still open. The supermarkets are well stocked and covid responsible. Remember to check in

This will be a really good shopping plaza/mall once the renovations are completed. It is open for business Aldi, woollies, Coles and lots of other complementry shops. Good Fruit and Vegetables

Nice and new, wanted to charge my car but couldn’t unfortunately due to the shopping centre making them offline.

What can I say... what an experience. Take a step back in time and into what I can only assume is some sort of 'wet-market' themed mall much like one found somewhere north of the South China Sea. Come to Eastlakes Shopping centre for only the finest second hand shoes, shops with missing letters in their signs and a woolworths that holds the record for the most cigarette sales three years running. The woolworths within is so great that even their delivery drivers won't leave, and insist you make the journey down to experience Eastlakes Shopping centre first hand. So come on in and see for yourself why this mall is South Sydney's best kept secret.

Besides Stolichnij minimart there aren't any good shops, plaza looks very old and tired, way over due for renovation.outside there is that junkies area feel and look.

Its a pretty decent shopping centre. Ok parking. Rest rooms. Basic variety of stores onsite.

Very nice and tide I found everything I wanted

I am anticipating the new shopping experience, hope they don't forget to put an angora for cultural exchanges in the very multicultural area that's Eastlakes. I am liking the changes, please just don't forget to place a area where we can celebrate this great located area, very special place for me.

Seems quite rundown. However the Woolworths was large sized and quite good. Plenty of parking available too. Toilets were reasonably clean.

A good place to get the groceries and the fresh vegetables at the same time. Good cafes around. Getting modern day by day.

There’s not much there. But the deli is excellent with great prices on olive oil and others. Nice gosleme cafe too

Basics and necessities available. Few restaurants but truly awesome

If I could remove the 1 star I gave to this place, I would. The floors were absolutely disgusting, spread with black gunk and food scraps. The whole mall reeked of the smell of rotten fruits as there was no refrigeration. Not to mention, the play area for kids was literally a parent’s worst nightmare. It was extremely dirty with bird feathers and waste, gunk and vomit stains. Don’t even get me started about the washrooms! The toilet bowls were filled with waste, locks didn’t work, walls having thrown tissue, a nightmare. The only decent shop was woolsworth which was somewhat clean. All the other shops were unkempt and covered in dust. Major repair and cleaning is needed. would not recommend anyone going here.
