North Point Mall/Shops-Atlanta GA

Ok so I just got back from a few day trip to Atlanta. The place I'm going to tell you about isn't actually in Atlanta but it's the Atlanta area. Alpharetta is where this is. And to be honest I hate shopping, I can't tell you how much I hate it, but this mall is really nice and I enjoyed just walking around it and looking in the stores that aren't located where I live. Northpoint Mall, and the surrounding shopping areas. The mall itself is two stories and has a lot of the more common department stores but it also has stores that not all areas have. I hate to say it, but the area I live in has very little on the nice stores front so this was a treat for me. If you have a little girl they do have an American girl store and bistro, I didn't go it in, but it's suppose to be very nice. Some of the stores that you may know what they are are, Apple, Macy's, Banana Republic, Brookstone, Oakley, Coach, Pottery Barn, The Disney Store, Pottery Barn Kids, Sephora, Godiva (one of my favorites), H&M, Williams Sonoma, and a ton of other places that I know I always forget to mention. The mall itself is really nice and you can go and just walk around and look in the stores. So many malls I have been to seem run down and don't really have much to offer if you just want to go and look around. This mall however is one that I would say if you like shopping you should stop at and take a look. However it's not just the mall itself that is worth a stop, they stores that are around the mall are worth looking at as well. Crate and Barrel, Dick's Sporting Goods, and some other places that maybe don't seem special to some people. Best Buy, TJ Max, Marshalls, Sports Authority, Target etc....

Alpharetta seems to be a really nice place and within this shopping area there is a lot of food places as well. If you are anything like me and love Cheesecake take a trip to the Cheesecake Factory. If I could have I would have eaten it everyday I was there at every meal. Bahama Breeze is another place I was told was good. California Pizza Kitchen has also gotten good reviews from people I know.
