Brea Mall

I love this mall! They have lots of parking close to all the main stores and food court and they have lots of great stores. The stores themselves have separate Unilocal pages but this mall has everything. It’s not a super high end mall like South Coast however, this mall has recognizable stores such as Hot Topic, JC Penny, Forever 21, Zumiez, etc. this mall is always adding and expanding and making renovations to make this place look great.

CLEAN. It reminds me of the Roseville galleria mall. It wasn’t super busy when we went which was a plus, and everyone was super friendly there! We didn’t expect to stay as long as we did.

Just your average mall, nothing special. The same mid-​range stores you find everywhere else. Food court has some decent options but the Taco Bell made me laugh. It is kept clean and has plenty of parking, but it’s a bit of a bore.

The stench by the CPK entrance to the mall is something god awful !! It smells like a mixture of sewage gas and waste from the Asian fish place. Has smelled this way for the last 6 months. Brea mall needs to fix this ASAP!

They ban u from the mall for buying shoes at footlocker and talking to the employee. Then they say things like… IF U DON’T LIKE IT GO BACK TO KOREA AND UR MOTHER TOO

I hate shopping and I really hate malls. That being said I’ve had to go here on a few occasions.
I’ve always been quickly in and out. Parking has not been a problem and the place never seems overly crowded.

Huge mall, lot of places to get your stuff .
You can find anything you asking for.
Clean, smell nice.
I will come here again.

Brea mall is my go-​to mall whenever I need to get an outfit or add to my huge stockpile of un-​needed makeup.
The layout is kind of confusing and leaves certain parts of the mall pretty empty, but other than that, I love it here. It’s clean and people here tend to be more friendly (i.e., they don’t slam into you and walk away or flat-​tire your damn shoe without saying sorry, ugh.)
The shops are pretty basic, but that’s kind of what I love about this mall. It’s so basic that pretty much whatever you need is most likely sold at this place. There’s plenty of parking space and it’s a pretty roomy mall with a fairly large selection of shops to choose from.

While not a better looking mall than South Coast, I can understand why one may like this place better.
At least the people who frequent this place have their faces visible, and aren’t screaming at the top of their lungs.
But other than having a better group of shoppers, it leaves much to be desired.
The layout is pure fecal matter. It’s like a long tunnel with two offshoots, much like a female internals as seen on an X-​ray. It feels jumbled up in terms of a layout for a mall.
Parking is a bit wonky. But I’ve seen worse… try anywhere in Irvine that sells rice.
This is the last of the «middle of the road» malls that is surviving. Westminster and Laguna Hills being the life support brothers to this flourishing dinosaur.
It’s fine to take a walk in, but don’t get your hopes up.

I don’t come here a lot, so the layout confuses me, but I do come here occasionally since sales tax is cheaper here than LA, and since it’s fairly close to school, I come here when I get off early on Thursday.
There is ample parking and the mall is very clean. I don’t come on the weekends so I don’t have to bother with crying, screaming babies, which is a plus.

Brea mall is my favorite mall around!
This mall is located in a very busy area of Brea where there are countless restaurants and shops surrounding near by. So on the weekends & evenings the surrounding streets and parking lots get very busy.
The mall itself is very clean and has pretty much every store you can think of. They have stores in all price ranges and stuff for all ages.

I live in LA now but grew up near the Brea Mall, and I still come back because it’s one of my favorite places to shop in Southern California. Some of the malls on the Westside only offer high-​end, expensive stores, but the Brea Mall offers a great selection of stores in all price ranges — from Forever 21, to Urban Outfitters, to Coach, to Michael Kors and beyond. To visit all of my favorite stores, I usually have to go to multiple different malls in LA. The Brea Mall has all of them, so it’s a one-​stop shopping destination.
They have a small Apple Store, so be sure to schedule an appointment because it gets busy. They also have a decent sized Sephora, which is always fun for trying on new perfumes and makeup. They even have a Pottery Barn and Williams Sonoma to meet all of your home shopping needs.
The food court here is pretty epic! No mall is complete without the standard Cinnabon and Hot Dog on a Stick; however, they also have Blaze Pizza, Chipotle, Cold Stone and Lollicup! They just added a new Johnny Rockets, and Nordstrom’s Café is always delicious. If you want to have a sit down meal, try out California Pizza Kitchen (they have gluten-​free pizza!) or Red Robin.
One of the better things about this mall is that there aren’t a ton of vendors with stands in the walkways, and the vendors don’t yell too much to get your attention. I hate being offered a timeshare or a new phone contract while I’m trying to shop.
It gets crowded weekends, and parking’s always a mess, but that’s to be expected with any mall.
This is definitely one of the best malls in the area!!!

Nice mall, lots of stores to choose from, lots of chairs to relax in while the wife shops. I did some of my X-​mad shopping here and it was an easy in and out. I even got lucky with a front row parking spot. It looks like they just recently remodeled the entrances and I thought everything looked nice. The mall has an old school pet shop and it was fun playing with all the puppies, it’s hard to find a pet shop these days.

One of top 3 malls in OC. 1) fashion Island
2) South coast Plaza 3) Brea Mall
Located off the 57 fwy on E Imperial hey (roughly between 60 and 91 fwy)
It is a small-​medium size indoor mall
Anchor stores: Nordstrom, Macy’s, JC Penney, Sears
It also has a wide and good variety, high price to budget stores.
Food court is not that big, but comfortable and nice ambiance. It has a quiet a few choices from Greek. Japanese, hamburgers, healthy, restaurants to your popular fast food places
Mall itself been there for a wild, but has been renovated over the years. Nice décor and ambiance nice to walk around do some shopping
There are also a few full service restaurants around the mall like, Red Robin.
Good option if in the area or just visiting the area If in the area.
Posted the mall directory as a picture

They have a great selection of regular as well as a few high end stores.
I usually come here because they have the closest Kitson location to my house and the one with the biggest and best selection.
Tons of parking, it gets full but is pretty spread out once you get inside.
One of the better malls in the area, good selection for adults as well as children.

We really love visiting this Simon Mall. The renovation done few months ago upgraded the mall in all aspects.
Pros:
Kid’s play area is clean. Cubby hole to place shoes in is a plus.
We always park by Macy’s. Abundant parking.
Lots of variety in kids stores. Crazy 8 etc.
Wide variety of dining options at the food court as well as dine in restaurants at the Mall complex.
Cons:
None.

I think I’m here probably once a week. I just love the Brea Mall. They have a great selection of stores, food options, and a huge parking lot.
I would definitely recommend to sign up to their email newsletter. They send notifications regarding special events or sales within the mall. When Kylie and Kendall Jenner promoted their new clothing line, «Simon Malls at Brea» sent out notifications regarding their meet and greet schedule at the Brea Mall.
During Easter the Easter bunny is there and they have a whole photo shoot area. Of course, Santa Claus is there during Christmas time. They have a temporary Halloween store open right in front of Spencers.
I’ve been coming to this Macy’s location for the past 2 years for Black Friday and they always have plenty of security around the area.

I’m not a shopper. I like to get in and get out and know exactly what I want. That being said, this mall caters to guys like me. Sears has a separate entrance close to their tools, which makes getting a certain tool a breeze, even when compared to Home Depot.
The Apple Store isn’t buried deep in the bowels of the mall and Express is catty corner on the second floor. Red Robin, CPK and the food court all have direct parking lot access so they too are guy friendly. What was once Glen Ivy Hot Springs is another spa and it’s also close to the parking area so it makes getting a gift a breeze…
Pandora is trek as is H&M, but thank goodness I only go to Pandora on special occasions and I prefer the H&M at Puente Hills for their large men’s section and easy parking.
The play area is a complete joke. The kids are out of control and the parents don’t give a crap about controlling them. There are so many germs floating in that mess of a play area, I wouldn’t take my dog there during flu season.

This is a good indoor mall. They’ve remodeled it, so it’s nicer and cleaner than before. Lots of places to sit and charging stations for your phone.
There are many shops and food places here.
You can easily spend a whole day here just checking everything out. There are also tons of parking spots available.
Best indoor mall in Orange County after South Coast Plaza.

I visited the Mall during my vacation in OC and I loved it!
It was really fun to spend my hole day with shopping. Also the food court has a big variety of delicious food.
Next time when I’m in OC I will spend there my money again.

This is a big mall with a lot of store that you can choose and you can walk around a bit at the food it it ‘s,. In here have a lot famous store affordable to $$$ such as forever 21, Macy’s, Lush.
