Quirky and quaint, the mall offers its customers a unique shopping experience with a range of more upscale boutiques, stores and dining options. Regular fixtures at the mall include designer boutiques like Kitty Kyle and Ella, the A. Shaw jewellery and antique store, beauty salons, interior design shops and even a Pier 1 imports outlet.
