- Stranded Timelord3 contributionsThe amish restaurant on the right side by the coffee store is amazing.it had the best BLT Ihave ever had. Very smokey bacon, fresh tomatoes, and flavorful lettuce. Perfect sandwich for lunch. Good price, too! I have gone here for several years, and have not been disappointed.Written 22 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mark GCatonsville, MD3,051 contributionsTanger Outlets seem to be holding up much better than the Shops at Rockvale a mile or so down route 30, with mostly full store fronts and a who's who of national brands. We did notice though store opening hours were 10 am, Yankee Candle opened at 11 do to staffing shortages. This current administration is still paying people not to work and the store said it is a real problem finding help. This small outlet (70 stores) is well laid out and well taken care of, though can be a challenge during busy times.Written 10 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 2016Ava29 contributionsOne of the reasons I come to this outlet is to shop at QVC outlet. They have bargains throughout the year but during the holidays it’s much more. I always find something to get for my family. For the men in the family there are small electronics. For the ladies I usually get handbags, kitchen items, QVC does have some unique items you can’t find anywhere else.
The only complain I have is that the staff can be a little more pleasant especially around the holidays. Some are really nice but a few are like ‘why am I here’ attitude. They don’t have to be overly friendly but...
Also, the handbags don’t come with the charms that they show online. Always, something is missing..ite either the strap itself, or the charms or the tags. When we question, we are told that’s the reason they are at the outlet stores. Then why some of the bags have every accessory they come with? That statement is not true in my experience. Outlets have out of season items and/or customer returns that have not been used.
I think, the bags that don’t have straps, should have another 10% discount at the least so customers can use that to buy straps online. I end up not buying because there are no straps. These bags end up in the final sale bin after several months.
I would still recommend shopping at QVC at this location.Written 19 December 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You are immediately drawn to the bright beautiful colors she chooses to paint in and her unique style. She is a delightful woman to speak with about her work as is her assistant Kathy. Such a fantastic visit.Written 29 September 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- WhareareugoingElizabethtown, PA228 contributionsIF you are staying at the Marriott, this is right across Queen street on the square. Every month there is a featured artist but some other artist's works are also on sale/display - so it isn't all just one thing.
I urge you to check out Franz Fox's art which is there now - June 2019.
I also love the hand-painted ceiling lamps that are for sale.Written 11 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I had an order pick up at Old Navy and wound up spending the morning shopping at other stores with my family.Written 22 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- The Sushi Guy 🍣Long Island, NY14,558 contributionsIf you are visiting Lancaster city, this is the place to be. Some of the best restaurants and shopping are on this street. Queen Street with all of the surrounding streets have an old world feel.
FYI - there are a few municipal garages to park in the vicinity.Written 16 August 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We did enjoy the exhibit that was hanging - mostly watercolors by elderly folks and we wished there had been a docent to dicuss things with, but as stated - it is not a real tourist site,Written 19 February 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stephen RDuBois, PA412 contributionsRelatively new area for shopping in the Lancaster area. Great selection of different stores from crafts to groceries to restaurants and everything in between. Very friendly service in the stores that we went into. Convenient access to the main roads and very convenient parking for all of the stores in this area. Can probably find anything that one would want.Written 15 June 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Nancy NN Huntingdon111 contributionsThis is a place where one can go and see autistic people being artistic. You will get a history lesson on how this was founded and funded. You will also get to meet the fantastic people who create such wonderful works of art.Written 27 April 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mark GCatonsville, MD3,051 contributionsWe still miss the VF/Lee Outlet in Reading, but if you are willing to look around, there are some very good deals in this store. They have a wide variety of men's and women's clothing, some last season, discontinued items, over stocked items, and slow sellers etc.. at very reasonable prices.Written 11 November 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
