Countryside Marketplace

I’m reviewing the actual market place. Not the stores. This place really had potential! There are several features I really enjoy about this place. 1 is the covered fire pit just outside of Beer Hunter. When this place first opened this area it was cozy with built in wooden lazy back chairs and cushions. But guess what? Those cushions are long disappeared and now we’re stuck sitting on hard wood with splinters. Not cozy anymore. Still the fire place is nice but it’s just not comfortable.
2.There is another open fire pit outside Chipotle on the other side but that’s not the kind you can congregate around.
Whoever designed this place had good ideas and terrible ideas.
The fire pits and pond were good ideas.
Terrible ideas? The giant oversized potted planters! I’ve seen people walk smack into a bush sticking out of the planters because they grow at about face level and they are not trimmed. I have walked into one. They narrow the walkway between Baskin Robbins and Beer Hunter so much you have to walk single file to avoid them.
The parking is very poorly planned. Their use of space is not the best. The little area that covers Beer Hunter and Star Bucks is always packed. I’ve seen near accidents and people fighting over parking spots. They should have made this area larger and with more spots.
Who in the world thought it was a good idea to use a round about? Those things are an accident waiting to happen. Every time I’ve had to hop on that thing there is always some confused driver who ruins it for everyone on the road. Bad bad idea.
The parking for the rest of the center is fine. It’s wide open and there is plenty of it.
The shops are good. Target, Kohls, Justice, Sport’s, Chalet, Bjs, Beer Hunter, Chipotle, Bev Mo etc…
The quality of shops is average to above average. The parking and design are not that great. Please hire a different planner for the next center we get in town.

love the shopping center and its close by and have quite a few retail stores i really like to shop at lots of parking area which is awesome and great security

Pretty nice shopping center. Traffic is bad, but that’s mostly due to idiot drivers. Not enough shade to park in. Prices are pretty high in many of the stores. No discount stores that I know of, closest to it would probably be Target and Pay-​Less Shoes. Best part is the art fair that they have once per year. Numerous upscale restaurants. Has an In-​and Out Burger place also!

I was brought to tears when we moved here and I saw this shopping center. Oasis. Has everything one needs for shopping and dining! I CAN’T WAIT for black Friday this year. KOHL’S SUPER TARGET AND BEST BUY all in one location!.. I’m tearing up again. Five stars.

Best shopping experience! The center has all my household needs and dining! I love it there. I do all my shopping at one place… Menifee Marketplace!

I can get most of my needs taken care of in this shopping center!

I really like this area!
Having a Super Target with ample parking is awesome! I also like many of the other stores here.
The outside eating area is also pretty cute, and uncommon for such a place. I could see myself stopping here for lunch and having a nosh outside and relaxing a bit before getting back to work.
Parking is really great here and everything looks new.
I was really surpised to find this place so nice!

I love that Panera bread and BJ’s is on their way! Adds to an already great local shopping center.

This shoping center is great!

Love the Center, but the BBQ Trio… SUCKS, EXPENSIVE, AND IS A RIP OFF. …but the center is still great !
What it needs is more food shops…

Great center!
Wish the parking by all the fast food shops was better. It’s like a shark tank. Seriously.
Needs a little more variety & more restaurants! But I love the community feel.

Love, love, love Countryside Marketplace. Yeah, it’s got the same olé stores, but the atmosphere is what is unexpected. A huge firepit, a pond, fountain, lots of outdoor seating. Security is in full force, in golf carts and segways. Great vibe, its style is country with a modern twist.

Countryside Marketplace is a great outdoor plaza that has shopping convenience galore.
Clothes, pet supplies, home-​improvement needs, liquor, a Super Target… whatever you may need or want, chances are this place has got it.
There is even a fire pit & over 40 shops & restaurants… good times!

Down the street from my house, what is with me living by the malls? I lived down the street from the UTC mall when I was living in La Jolla and now this! Could be a very dangerous thing!
I really like this place, lots of options for food and restaurants, great places to go to for your home needs. I’ve been here at Lowe’s and Best Buy quite a few times.
The food court is almost like a serene area, well, it’s made for you to relax and enjoy your food there. There’s a nice little pond and fountain, and it’s really nice to see that they put in all this effort to make this very kid friendly as well.
You’ll find me here a lot.

This is a pretty cool new shopping center that I always stop at for lunch or a Target visit when I’m in the area.

A nice huge new Target plus Lowe’s, Kohl’s, Best Buy, Old Navy, Tillys, BevMo, Staples, PetCo, Red Robin, In N Out, etc etc.
The food court area is nice, with cool landscaping, a pond, misters (I love misters!) and tons of umbrellas.
They also have an outside area with a huge fireplace and comfy chairs. Looks perfect for when the weather is cold.
This center is a ‘little piece of heaven’ for people that live in the area. No more driving to Temecula or Murrieta for this stuff!
