name shopping, specialty boutiques and local retailers.
Another thing you can be sure of when shopping in Greenville?
There are plenty of great restaurants nearby should you need
to refuel along the way. Explore the listed areas below and
discover for yourself how “retail therapy” really works.
10 GAFFNEY OUTLET MARKETPLACE The Gaffney Outlet Marketplace is the closest outlet shopping experience to downtown Greenville and home to more than fifty stores. Brands such as Polo Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Coach, Kate Spade, Michael Kors and Brooks Brothers are well-represented, as are the likes of Ann Taylor, American Eagle, Guess, Aeropostale, Banana Republic, Gap and J. Crew. While apparel is central to the shopping theme, there is plenty more offered besides clothes, including Bath & Body Works, Yankee Candle, Pottery Barn, Kitchen Collection and Vitamin World. Regular hours are Monday - Saturday Open 10:00AM–9:00PM, Sunday Open 1:30PM–7:00PM.
9 CHERRYDALE POINT Nestled between downtown Greenville and Furman University, off of North Pleasantburg Drive, this shopping center offers a wide range of familiar favorites. Stores include Old Navy, TJ Maxx, Shoe Carnival, Bath & Body Works and Ross. In addition to the department stores, you will find Ingles Market, T-Mobile, AT&T, Gold’s Gym and a Regal Cinemas.
8 FAIRVIEW ROAD The nearby area of Simpsonville has benefitted from Greenville growth, and offers tremendous shopping opportunities as well. Fairview Road is unrecognizable from the scatter of farms and pastures it was but a few decades ago. Department stores such as Target, Walmart, Lowe’s, Home Depot and Michael’s are found either in or just outside of Fairview Station. Belk, Kohl’s and TJ Maxx are featured clothing stores. Footwear, video games, pet supplies, sporting goods, jewelry and beauty products each have a specialty store of their own.
7 AUGUSTA ROAD
Extending out of the heart of
downtown Greenville, Augusta Road
is a common meeting place, and
centerpiece of the Upstate community. It’s one of the oldest neighborhoods around, and it gives you quick
access to other parts of the city.
Restaurants are plentiful, so a day
of shopping is easy and comfortable. Take time to pop in and out of
the eclectic collection of specialty
shops; Twill, a women’s fashion
boutique, offers a sophisticated yet
casual style, complete with a cozy
sitting area and fully stocked bar.
6 GREENVILLE STATE FARMERS MARKET Located off North Pleasantburg Drive is the State Farmers Market. There you will find all sorts of produce such as apples, peanuts and tomatoes year-round, while a separate shed, open on Saturdays from April to November, offers fresh vegetables, baked goods, plants and flowers. Other vendors set up flower stands in the parking lot.
5 VILLAGE OF WEST GREENVILLE DOWNTOWN The Village of West Greenville is a year-round showcase of local, talented artists. Full of studio space and galleries alike, its reputation as Greenville’s art district is rightfully earned. While exploring the Village’s many galleries, take a coffee break at Village Grind or stop in for a bite at GB&D. Ember Outfitters, Pace Jewelers and Rocker Belles each offer a shopping experience unique only to West Greenville.
4 THE SHOPS AT GREENRIDGE This attractive shopping center is anchored by Barnes & Noble and several other superstores. Several free-standing brick buildings at the center of the complex house stores such as Ann Taylor Loft, White House/Black Market, Ulta, Talbot and Yankee Candle.
3 MAGNOLIA PARK Strategically located between three major roads in Greenville; Woodruff Road, I-385 and I-85, The Shops at Greenridge provides a regional destination where shoppers can go for one-stop shopping. Open, outdoors and reasonably walkable, Magnolia Park quickly established itself as one of the key shopping destinations in town. Magnolia Park is home to Cabela’s, Costco, a Regal Cinemas and the only Dave and Buster’s in the area. Pier 1 Imports, Nordstrom Rack and Golf Galaxy line next to one another.
2 DOWNTOWN GREENVILLE In 2002, the Main St. Liberty Bridge over the Reedy River opened up the West End and Falls Park on The Reedy, and business boomed. Anchored by the Hyatt Regency on one end and the West End on the other, downtown is lined with arching trees and pretty street lighting. You’ll find an abundance of unique, local retailers, as well as upscale chains like Brooks Brothers, Orvis and Anthropologie. Not just national chains but smaller ones such as Mast and its next-door neighbor, O.P. Taylor’s Toy Store also find their place along the Main St.
1 HAYWOOD MALL
Open from 10:00AM-9:00PM Monday through Saturday, and
from noon-7:00PM on Sunday, perhaps Greenville’s most popular shopping destination, the Haywood Mall houses over 150
stores. Sears, JCPenney, Dillard’s, Macy’s and Belk, the mall’s
largest stores, and the likes of smaller retailers such as Gap,
Sephora, Pottery Barn, Williams-Sonoma, Forever 21 and Banana
Republic make for a very complete shopping experience. A food
court and restaurants like Grill Marks and Cheesecake Factory,
are convenient when you’re ready for a bite to eat.
