South Bay Center

This place could be so great! So many stores that are amazing and yet I go 10 miles away to avoid it. I have been in target when an all out brawl broke out. Yes people fist fighting. I have been walked into by people that are high on some sort of drug. The stop and shop has some of the rudest employees. This could be a gold mine if the clientele could be managed at all!

So many great stores with such horrible crowd control. The general public that flocks this area is ridiculous. Always a headache to go in and out of

store selection is ok. parking is not great. i’ll go here in a pinch if in a hurry but mostly i’m better off going to south shore plaza in braintree

It’s got all the big stores and lots of parking. Some will complain that it fills up on weekends but I’ve never seen that – you just have to park further away.
The asian supermarket tends to be cheaper than StopNShop and that StopNShop might have some things cheaper than Target so it’s good to price check.

When I lived in Harbor Point, I used to go there all the time. I love & miss it so much. You find everything you need because they have very good selection of stores from Best Buy to Target to Marshalls. I just find the Stop & Shop to be creepy. I also love that there are different kind of people there from different backgrounds and classes.

Convenient place for everything! The parking lot is huge and so are the stores! Right off the freeway and easy to find. For whatever you need, there’s a store there that probably has it, including food.

South Bay. I love it and hate it. It’s SO convenient for me as I live less than a mile away, but about 50% of the time that I pull into that awful parking lot, I cringe. It seems like no matter what time of day you go into this place, there’s just sooo many people. Many of whom appear to have difficulty navigating a parking lot.
With that said, having this here does save me a heck of a lot of time of driving from one place to another. With Stop & Shop, Target, Best Buy, Marshall’s, TJ Maxx, Kam Man, among many other options, there’s always at least one place to get what you need.
There are a few restaurants as well, although they are on the lower end of the chain restaurant spectrum — Applebees and Olive Garden (there’s also a Panera, but seriously, who goes to Panera?).

South Bay! The parking lot is kind of crazy, but they have just about everything you could need here. There’s a ton of parking, maybe bus lines run through it or near it, and Andrew Square isn’t too far away either (and they sometimes run shuttles to/​from there). I go there a lot now that I’m in Dorchester. Honestly, it’s a lot nice of a place to shop than it was like 7 years ago when I used to go from Southie.
There is definitely not enough bike parking. Wish there was a rack near the police outpost.

I can honestly say that this place has gotten worse and worse over the years. I don’t even feel comfortable coming here anymore.

This place = the great sociological experiment that never was.

The only real shopping center near Boston that has a repair store, electronics store, grocery store and department store all in the same location. Parking is usually ample and this place is a NIGHTMARE during the holidays!

This place is chaotic, the parking lot is a bit of a mess, especially when there are cars driving over the lines. There is a decent amount of stores there but I always feel like there is something missing. I do like that the BPD have a presence there & the few store that when out of business has been filled. They do need to clean up the lot from trash more often & redo the traffic patterns in this parking lot.

This place has really cleaned itself up in the last 5 – 10. I’m pretty impressed.
The BPD has an outpost here, which maybe was the draw for a lot of new stores to open? Who knows. I’m sure it didn’t hurt.
The security guards ride some kind of Segway with 3 wheels. What would you call that, a tri-​seg-​cle? Zippy little things.
My father is always prepared to see his work truck was broken into upon leaving a store. It hasn’t happened yet, an we stop here fairly often. So, clearly the portly men on trisegcles are doing their jobs well.
if I ever have to take my little sisters back to school shopping again, I may be dragging them here. So many stores in one place.

I have to say that is awesome for ‘one stop shopping’ for me. Since I do not regularly have a car, when I do rent one I like to be as efficient as possible. For that, this shopping center is awesome. In one place, I found target, Best Buy, Bed Bath and Beyond, Super 88 supermarket, super Stop and Shop and Home Depot, plus who knows what else I did not see.
I am certainly a fan and will definitely hit this place when I need to fill my trunk with junk
