Essex Experience

"There is plenty of parking, and the lots are well plowed in the winter. There is a good selection of shops, restaurants, and stores. Definitely worth checking out whether you go to peace of mind pilates, sukho Thai restaurant, or salt and bubbles, there's a store or things to do for many interests here."

"This used to be an outlet shopping center of famous branded higher end products years ago. Almost died out with pandemic and now is filled up once again with local businesses, shops, restaurants, multiplex theater, grocery, fast food with ample parking and outdoor music in the summer. The restaurants offer a wide array of foods from Chinese, Pizza, burgers, Thai and much more for all kinds of tastes."

"Used to be great for the movies, grocery shopping and select stores. Was so much better when Under Armor, and Brooks Bros where there... Now they do these stupid events where there is no parking, and as a local the music is horrendous at night when trying to relax."

"For many reasons, this is my favorite coffee shop of all time. The staff is friendly and professional but, never stuffy. The vibe of the place nb is the perfect balance between quirky and pro. The food and coffee are wonderful."

"Poorly maintained, poorly planned and poorly built strip mall and parking lot with a concert area in the center surrounded by temporary fences, sand bags and porta-potties, which should never have been built on the wetlands blocking what used to be a beautiful view of the mountains. That said there are some wonderful shops, and good renters in the strip like the Health Food Store, Sweet Clover, but the owner of the complex does not maintain the walks or the parking lot or the storm water ponds and the area is an eyesore."
