    • Q:

      Where is Brio located in mall?

      A:

      Brio and Cheesecake Factory are next to the mall, but not connected from the inside. Go outside from the second floor next to the cell phone repair kiosk and the Primark and it's right there.

      They got rid of McDonald's. McDonald's! I assumed it would be in that corner for all eternity, across from the arcade with the carousel between them. I never thought the mall itself would outlast McDonald's.
      Despite all the negative news about malls, Danbury Fair seems to be basically surviving. Maybe not as much the anchor stores, but the interior is packed with people on the weekends. The fountain is no longer huge, and I don't think you can toss coins from the second story. It's not as green colored and 80s as it once was (in the 90s), and the stores are "modern". Parking is plentiful, and the parking garage still stands going into the food court. There's a target now, with drive up parking literally down in back ... That part seems very quiet.

      I see myself coming to the Danbury Mall on every occasion. It's not my main stop, but they offer a lot of alternatives for stores and food, which is nice, such as Chick-Fli-A and Primark to name two. It's too bad that the Poughkeepsie Galleria doesn't have these unlike here. I do however miss the decor to the mall, such as the big water fountain in the center. With things wearing out, renovation is needed and it turned out great.

      JCPenney is still hanging on at this location, along with Middletown, NY, holding on as well at the Galleria at Crystal Run. Let's see how much longer it will last.

      This is a wonderful destination to put in the books, with a large variety of everything, you name it. I'm just thrilled that this mall isn't too far from the Hudson Valley, even though it's in Connecticut. On weekends and holidays, be prepared for traffic in the parking lot and garage.

      Nice mall.

      Has to be a nice mall to for image conscious 'high end' stores like Apple to bestow their presence upon them, right? I don't particularly go by certain stores' presence in certain malls to appreciate them, but this is a nice mall regardless and allegedly it's the second largest mall in all of Connecticut.

      Two floors with plenty of shopping options or just to browse. You can take your Fitbit and have a decent walk around the mall, as it's long and spacious. There are other businesses outside the main mall (such as Longhorn's) that is a part of the mall, as well as other places on the immediate outskirts, including a Whole Foods.

      Too many stores to list here (they have a directory on their website), but you have a decent selection from those places that think they're 'high end' to standard mall fixtures like Hot Topic and Spencers - and everything in between.

      Plenty of eateries - whether for a quick meal or restaurants to sit in. Longhorn Steakhouse, Cheesecake Factory, Chick-Fil-A, Shake Shack, Chipotle, .....I could go on, but I'm sure you get the point. Plenty to choose from. Some are located on the grounds and not in the main mall.

      Parking lot is huge with plenty of parking options around the mall's circumference.

      As far as shopping, this is a good bet whether you're from the area or not. Worth a visit if you enjoy going to malls to shop or browse.

      One of my favorite malls now has a target too and I honestly feel like it gets even better as the more things that are added to this mall. So giving this a couple stars as of now is kinda underwhelming and not fair at all to the mall itself because as stores close the more the mall can benefit by adding new things into the mall itself. So as of right this is one of my favorite malls because it has a good manga store and a half bowling isle.

      Danbury Fair mall is a great mall. It's supposed to be one of the biggest malls in New England. They have really great stores, like L L Bean, Brooks Brothers, Eddie Bauer, Macy's, Lush, Swarovski, and Williams-Sonoma. There are a lot of food options, like Cheesecake Factory, Shake Shack and Long Horn. The food court is really beautiful. They have a huge carousel. The Chick Fil A here is excellent. There's also Haagen Dazs and other good food choices. There's a lot of parking. It's free. The mall is huge.

      This review is about Macys only. I tried to get on macys site but I couldn't find a place to write a new review.
      I don't go there often anymore because it's gone downhill . I went a few days ago and I really couldn't believe I was in macys.
      Clothes dumped all over floor the racks had mixed sizes mixed clothes. Register is few and far between so you have to literally go search for one and get in a line.
      I tried on some tops the same style , same size fit differently for each color. So there's no consistency even in sane style same size. The filth behind the register was truly horrendous. Please macys do something. Why arent people working to clean it up ??

      Great mall. Lots of variety in available stores. Not too crowded as it's a decent size mall with two stories. Had a great day checking out stores I had never been to as well as the usuals. Good food options as well. It's a decent size food court. There wasn't anything that we wanted that this mall couldn't deliver.
