Lufkin Mall is a small regional mall — the only mall between Houston and Tyler. Its an older facility which has been well maintained, although with not any major improvements since it was built in the 70s. The food court has standard mall fare — Corndog 7, Chick-Fil-A, China Max, Great American Cookie Company, a sit-down Mexican restaurant, and a couple other places. Anchor stores include JC Penny, TJ Maxx, Sears, Bealls(Palais Royal) and Baskins. There’s a small arcade/indoor playground, as well as several jewlery stores, small clothing/accessory stores: Hot Topic, Journey, Kirklands, Aeropostale, American Eagle, Bath & Bodyworks and The Buckle. There’s also a 9 Theater Cinema owned by Carmike, which probably hasnt been remodeled since the 1970s. All in all it holds nothing next to a mall in Houston or Dallas, but given that its in the middle of East Texas, and there are not any other malls around for about 100 miles, its not bad. In fact, it most certainly could be worse.

Probably not the best mall to go to if you’re expecting: –A large mall –Shops that are prevalent in other malls –A mall in which all shops are open and thriving I do like the stores that are in the mall; however, the main issue is that there is a fast turnover rate for stores here. One of my favorite stores completely closed(a bookstore) and new stores don’t usually stay open very long here. On nights and especially weekends, you can find the mall packed with high school kids and middle school kids. I have seen more than my fair share of fights, either right near the entrance or in the parking lot of the mall. The mall’s workers have all been very friendly, but it’s usually just not worth it to come here. I rarely find what I’m looking for, unless it’s something very specific that only a store in the mall would have(i.e., a Victoria’s Secret bra, a table from Kirkland’s, etc.).
