    Ammanique was great! He took us directly to exactly what we were trying to find in a huge Best Buy store. Very helpful. Very polite. Customer service excellence. If we could give 10 stars, we would give it to Ammanique!

    The mall has all the essentials you might need, with a best buy and Target. However, they should consider adding entrances, signage, and walkways to better accommodate visitors from the Metro, who currently have to walk all the way around the building through the middle of the parking lots.

    If you're ever in the Alexandria/Arlington are of Virginia please stop by the Potomac yard shopping center....even with theist of they're grocery stores they still manage to be the "Best of the Best" when it comes to buying almost anything.

    This shopping center has a Target ,Barnes & Noble and Best Buy . The location is top notch for getting what you need for your pets, and your entertainment needs .

    Was actually here to visit to brand new station. It is very nice, airy and pleasant. Shops are a bit of a hike from the station and many will soon be gone from the area. Kind of dumb, build a great station with shops nearby and then remove said shops for something else. Mind boggling to be honest.

    Been years since I visited. Nice, clean area. Decent crowds. Parking isn't bad in general but gets a little difficult during the holidays. Easy, wheelchair access to stores. New construction in the area so more homes or businesses will pop up soon.

    I have no idea how they think they're going to handle traffic when they drop an arena and etc into this area. You can't get to one end of this strip mall to the other without stopping at five different lights. It literally takes 20 minutes and has been like that since the beginning and Alexandria has never fixed it. So how would any resident expect things to be? Any better? Much less any of the shoppers that go there.

    I went to Michael's and felt like a kid in a candy store!!! Fantastic finds, great displays, and very neatly arranged. I never find things strewn all over the place, like you do in other stores. I always find the prices to be reasonable. Could have had a few more staff members on the floor to assist customers.

    My friend & I started off at Bestbuy to pick up my birthday gift, then we headed down to Old Navy for a few clothing items and finished that up at The Wine store where we picked up a few bottles of the wine we both enjoyed.

    Lots of great places to shop quickly, lots of construction in the area though. It's a strip mall so it's a little inconvenient to go from one store to another and then back to the car.

    Went to Target to get some pet food/supplies and a couple odds and ends. It’s not a bad store, it’s actually one of the busiest Targets I’ve been to, but i have noticed every time I’ve visited that stock isn’t properly placed on the shelves. It’s almost like they’re just throwing it to get it out the back and to make the shelves seem full. The staff (that I’ve encountered) are friendly enough, helpful and personable as well. My only complaint is the stock being placed in the wrong spots. I don’t wanna have to scan my whole cart at a scanner before I purchase and I don’t wanna be surprised when I pay because I thought the prices were different than what they wrung up for either! They get a solid 3.8 ⭐️

    This shopping center is always busy. Plenty of available parking it's well lit with lanes clearly marked and fair amount of handicap parking. The roadways are well maintained. The stores are clean and debris free for an open space shopping center.

    This place needs a gym and a nice standalone Starbucks. They do have Starbucks at Target and Barnes &Noble but not as comfy as typical Starbucks. The other Starbucks located in a weird hidden location.

  • 5/5 Graciela M. 1 year ago on Google
    The Starbucks at Potomac Yard is one of the best around, because they have excellent Customer service, all employees are kind and helpful. Thank you, and please never change. I wish all the other Starbucks around this area, would have the same attitude. Some of their employees are very nasty and if it wasn't because I like Starbucks products, I would walk away. After all I am paying for it.

    Not my favorite Starbucks to visit. The staff is not welcoming or pleasant. I haven’t visited intentionally since it took them 45 mins to make an order ahead drink.

  • 5/5 Amia S. 5 months ago on Google
    Great Experience as everything is expanding. Love the shopping Center close to public transportation and Walking the community.

  • 4/5 Scott G. 7 months ago on Google
    Potomac Yard has been great for me and the family for a long time just because of It’s location relative to our home. It’s never been a SUPER place to shop but it’s definitely improving over the years.

    On our 2nd day stay, we returned to our room after a long day, and it smelled like smoke. Staff tried air freshener. Air freshner did not help. Staff changed our room from venue side to a different room. Very outstanding response.Great location. Restuarant breakfast was good.

  • 5/5 Sarah W. 11 months ago on Google
    Nowhere near the old rail yard it used to be. Lots of options for food and shopping. No more movie theater but target, giant, and Barnes and Noble are much better alternatives.

  • 5/5 Kelly S. 1 year ago on Google
    We traveled a long way to come to the pet adoption here. It was a wonderful experience to meet all the friendly cats and dogs up for adoption. The workers were friendly and helpful

  • 5/5 Ervin R. 1 year ago on Google
    Great coffee. Outstanding customer service. I will definitely come back and recommend to family members and friends.

  • 5/5 Paige H. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a nice location with plenty of activities in the area. It is conveniently located with food options, a book store, entertainment and anything else you need.

  • 2/5 Karen M. 1 year ago on Google
    This was one of my favorite locations until they put a giant wall in front of it. Now the outdoor atmosphere is dark and looks like a tv prison yard!

  • 4/5 Jane Huelle REALTOR DC MD V. 1 year ago on Google
    Great center close to everything and soon to have metro stop!

  • 4/5 Colin D. 1 year ago on Google
    Lots of construction always going on so it can be frustrating at times to get around and park. There are a lot of big name stores though (Target, Best Buy, Staples, Starbucks, etc.) and good easy places to eat (Chipotle, CAVA, Subway, &pizza, etc.)

    I went to Navy Federal Credit Union inside the Potomac Yard Center! They're going through work within the branch but it was still a good experience! The Potomac Yard Center has quute a few businesses and places to grab a bite to eat! There's also a Giant Food going north on the next block! There's also quite a few other businesses surrounding the Center area.

    Still love this place although a lot of stores I like are no longer there. Home Goods and Total Wine 🍷 are my favorites

  • 5/5 Robin M. 1 year ago on Google
    I actually visited Target! This is a very nice store..spacious and well equipped with all that you would need from this type of store. I enjoyed my visit and hope to go there soon!!

  • 5/5 Mohamed I. 1 year ago on Google
    I love this shopping center, you could find everything with reasonable prices.

  • 3/5 Robert M. 1 year ago on Google
    Under construction in the general area of this shopping center. Plenty of parking and the police are always visible. Little to no foot traffic and pet friendly environment. I recommend this shopping center while traveling on route one.

    I've gone on the weekends it just so happens to rain. Can't wait to go when the sun is shining and can walk over to Hardtime Cafe and have a beer and a wing. Love the Giant store and also the ABC liquor store again I must have been driving too fast I circled the shopping center twice went into Giant and a patron there pointed it out to me.
