Steelyard Commons

Very sad looks like a zoo in there. I don’t know what I’m looking at. People just grabbing shit and throwing it where it doesn’t belong. Workers could care less and the customers in there are very disrespectful. I’ll never go back

I am reviewing Steelyard Commons as an out of town visitor.
I dislike the set up of this shopping center as most of them are big box stores so in order to get to one from another, I would either drive or walk a mile to get there. It does have most of the franchises including Walmart, Marshall, Home Depot, Target, Petco and more.
Plenty of parking seems like most people are driving here.
Nothing too unique but I do like how some of the stores incorporate the «steelyard» theme in their deco.

Had a burger here and did some shopping at the Target while we were visiting Cleveland from out of town. Seems like an attractive new center with some solid tenants and plenty of parking.

I’ve never physically assaulted anyone (yet), but this place as a whole makes me want to punch people. everyone. babies. the elderly.
People walk in front of your car while you’re driving. For some reason, people have a lot of problems driving/​parking here. Generally speaking, the stores and restaurants at Steelyard are frustratingly slow. The folks at Steelyard (patrons and employees) have a lot in common with the honey badger: they don’t give a shit.
Once in a while, Steelyard will be the closest to wherever I am, and to save time I go there.
side note: The Wal-​Mart here is the one of the worst places I’ve ever been, and that includes many stanky port-​a-​pottys at the Muni lot when tailgating.

This place is really weird to me. It has stores I like (Marshall’s, Old Navy, Target, etc.) and yet I still don’t like having to go here. I think it’s mostly the location. It’s just such a hard place to get to for me, I would almost drive to a farther location of a store than try to weave my way into the Steelyard. The parking lot is also just a total free-​for-​all. People are walking down the middle of the street, crossing wherever they want. Cars are driving through parking spots, peeling out and almost hitting each other. Maybe if the Steelyard implemented more thorough and stick pedestrian rules and regulations I would like it more.

Starbucks in Target is terrible!!! They don’t know how to make any of the drinks correctly always low on supplies or out like caramel or vanilla or the stoppers or even cups. Every time I went their I hated it. I’m upset I just bought a white mocha and it tastes like plain coffee… Seriously not what I paid for.

Just moved to Cleveland I must say this must be the worst Wal Mart in the U S shelves are never stocked prices not displayed cashiers rude can’t even find toys or k cup coffee, lines long I call it ghetto mart does this place have managers at all. This place is horrible I could go on but it’s just too much wrong

None of the stores in this place really stand out to me as anything special. Your typical big box stores for the most part. I don’t make any special trips down there unless I have to. I am glad it seems to be thriving though, as we have enough empty spaces littered throughout Northeast Ohio. It would be nice if they opened a gas station near the highway exit? There really aren’t that many besides in Tremont. Kind of a pain.

I hate this place it’s tacky the people are tacky I guess that’s what makes the atmosphere shabby
It’s always jampacked I’m always scared I was going to get mugged

I am in town from NY and googled Target. Steelyard came up as the closest to Downtown. I went to both Target and Wal-​Mart there. The service in both was outstanding, and the selection of merchandise was great. What a great center to have in the city. I would like to see more retail downtown within walking distance of the Convention Center, Marriott and Westin, but since I had a car, Steelyard was great. I read more about it and learned that it is a reuse of the old LTV steel plant. Bravo to the developer for this.

Rich people have Beachwood, Legacy Village and Crocker Park to shop at and stay away from people like me while they blow money. Somewhere down the line, somebody had the idea that open air malls were the way to go. First one that I ever went to was at Easton in Columbus. I have the Steelyard. If I have some money to burn, I will be found chilling real hard at the Steelyard. And please, use money to buy things! It is not the STEAL YARD!

I give the whole area 2 stars and that’s being generous. Those 2 stars are merely because they have a variety of stores to choose from. Bath & Body, Home Depot, Chipotle, Rue 21, etc. The quality of the stores and the people who shop there, are what brings this review down. I suggest only shopping here when you are desperate.

Okay… We had to go to this horrible store today because sometimes you HAVE to go to Walmart. We went in the morning (an absolute must) and it didn’t look too bad. One employee in the frozen department even gave us a salutation and the lady at the checkout was very friendly.
I still hate this Walmart, but the employees were spot on and nice.

Only reason Im giving this place 2 stars is thats its super close to the crib. Half the stores have staff that could not care and the other half are pretty good. The best time to go is early. All the hoodrats for some reason dont go shopping (with kids) till after 8pm. I generally hate grouping of stores like this. if I want one thing I have to fight traffic for all the other stores. makes no sence. I guess I still would rather deal with inner city patrons than rich, arrogant d-​bags that can frequent Lagacy or Cracker park.

I ALWAYS wondered why they built a shopping complex on what used to be LTV Steel… Saving grace is the towpath will run through here and hopefully give it some value because it doesn’t draw me very often and I am close!

I realize this store has two separate Unilocal ratings, one for Shopping Center, and one under Mobile Phones (crafty move Walmart PR department). If you can’t already tell, nearly all the negative comments are listed under the Mobile Phone category, while some made up positive reviews are in the Shopping Center rating. Rest assured, I am here to rectify this.
The Steelyard Walmart is easily one of the worst places a human can shop. Unless that human prefers long check out lines, difficult employees, and has no faith in humanity whatsoever. Then this store is just fine.
All it takes is one or two trips to this store to learn how terrible of a place it really is. Living in Tremont I make trips as far as the Lakewood Giant Eagle to try and avoid buying items at Walmart. But just like that annoying high school friend you never get along with, after a while you forget why you hated them in the first place and call them up. Immediately after seeing them you quickly remember why you hated them in the first place and instantly regret your decision. This is the exact same feeling I get the moment I step into this store.
Employees are rarely around to help answer questions, and those that are typically can be found in a huddle with other employees in some obscure aisle in the back. I have yet to see the mythical unicorn (also known in this store as «management») but I have to believe they exist somewhere. Cashiers are slow, limited to a select few aisles, and seem to take more breaks than John Goodman running a marathon. If you ever caught in the unfortunate situation of waiting to check out, be warned that this typically takes 30 to 45 minutes, regardless of the time or day (I did test this theory by attempting to buy a pizza at 3 am over a weekend. My wait time was 34 minutes).
If anyone is considering shopping at this Walmart, do yourselves a favor and go to the Target across the street. Prices are comparable, the lines are shorter, and the store is cleaner.

This is the second time I’ve been to Steelyard Commons — both times we ended up here to go to Target. It’s a large retail complex.
There are a number of other stores and restaurants here. I noted that there is a RadioShack in this retail complex — in case Target did not have the iPad charger that I needed.

Some of the public curse a lot, but the service in the stores if fine.
Lot of spanish speaking public as well, but english is also there.
Good array of stores. I go to Target, Great Clips, and Wal Mart

Call me a suburban soccer mom, but sometimes it’s just nice to have a convenient place to do a bunch of shopping all in one spot.
You don’t have to worry about parking or about spending an exorbitant amount of money. This isn’t Legacy Village, and for that I am glad. (Even though Legacy has its place – however small – in my heart.)
The only time I feel like a shell of myself is when I realize that I’m running out of time doing errands on a Sunday, and then it’s either drive to a completely different area for groceries, or go to Wal-​Mart. That’s a tough decision. When Wal-​Mart wins, that’s the only time I feel as though Steelyard Commons is a bit evil. Otherwise, I’m all for it.

The other night, I was suffering from a very bad cold and sinus infection. Nonetheless, my fish tank was in super-​bad need of being changed. In my NyQuil-​induced haze, I started the two-​hour process of giving my tank a good cleaning.
Mid-​way through the cleaning, I did something stupid; something I never would have done had I not been all fuzzy-​headed. I put my hot tank heater into the small changing tank holding my fish. It was full of colder water and the hot heater instantly shattered. The fish were okay, but it was 8:15 PM and I had less then an hour to find them a new heater.
Now, I live in Ohio City. Where the hell was I going to get a fish tank heater quickly at that time of night???
Never fear, I zipped to the Steelyard and had an excellent shatter-​proof heater in less than 15 minutes. As I was really sick, I couldn’t have made it much farther. I was home before 9 PM and had the water heating up nicely.
And so, to all of you that find the Steelyard ugly, yearn for mom and pop stores in the steel mill area, or wish that the Steelyard was more hip like other cities, my fish and I would like to say, «Yeah, right.»
The Steelyard has come through for me on numerous occasions such as this. It’s not there to be pretty and make you feel all nice inside. It’s there to provide the mother load of everyday necessities to average folks struggling through their average daily lives. And, thank god for that!
See my previous review below for a more thorough account of why I love, love, love the Steelyard…
