Its sad to say but the plaza has consistently diminished since the early days. Kmart is now closed. And it just feels somewhat unsafe to even be in the parking lot. I immediately locked my doors when I pulled in and I didnt even think about it. That says something about the plaza in its current state. I get that there are some shops there that are still viable, but for the most part I tend to just avoid that part of Barberton now.
Nice place to shop. However the Dollar Tree was rather messy. I couldnt find what I was looking for and merchandise was just thrown wherever. Kinda looked like a tornado went through the store. Was a little anxious because of this. Also there were no baskets to carry my items so I had grabbed a small laundry basket so I wouldnt drop anything. Not nearly as easy to carry because there were no handles.
Its like what I imagine Chernobyl feels like. I miss the old days, where you only had to worry about punk kids robbing you. Now you have to worry about the crackheads too.. tisk.P.sId pay whoever owns the Kmart building to let me skate it for an hour. Possible business venture?... Your call Kmart landlord.
Last time I was there I bought .y items. I didnt know why my bill seemed high. But I need major surgery a d I needed to sit I was in alot of pain.iookked at receipt amd they charged me double on 2 items I called in to the Mgr. Amd asked if I pulled up to door if they could come out a d get receipt and fix it they said no. A.d I said om well can u atleast bring me the products u charged me for she said no I had to walk in there .I totally would if I had been able to. They make a mistake toting 15 . Amd Im still out that today. If someone has an issue and u made the mistake u could be more accommodating to fix the issue
Only received one star because I couldnt give it none. Stopped for Chinese while on the way to Colorado from northeast Pennsylvania in a road trip in an RV to fulfil a dream. The Chinese was good. (will leave seperate review for that) while only eating for 20 minutes tops I looked outside to see one of our two cats in the parking lot of the strip mall. After immediately retrieving him we get him back to the RV to find it was broken into, and my girlfriends phone and bunch of other little electronic things, but what was the real blow was finding that they happened to find out safe and stole that which contained like 95 percent of our money. Im not from here but I will never go back. Sorry about the personal rant!
I go to Magic City Plaza because it is close to home. However the Dollar Tree store there has really gone downhill in the last 6 months or so. The aisles are so full of boxes you can hardly get through, the shelves are a disaster, the place is a complete mess and filthy and they never have what you are looking for. I always got my cat litter there and they havent had any for at least four months. When I ask the employees are extremely rude and always say they didnt get it on the truck. When you look in the back its just piled up to the ceiling with boxes!! I will go to Wadsworth Dollar tree where I can always find everything I want and the aisles are clear and clean!! Plus the employees are friendly as well!!
Love this place however there are a few issues; people like to try and steal from Kmart a lot so as a result there are usually always cops down there and some sort of drama going on. the parking lot is not exactly clean and theres usually trash laying around because people are too lazy to throw it in a can. the third and final issue is that for some reason people keep choosing this parking lot to overdose on heroin and so thats a little off-putting. especially considering we bring our kids here with us shopping and thats the last thing I need to see is someone passed out and their car with a needle in their arm. other than that this place is amazing. More than enough parking more than enough stores. Also Super China the Chinese restaurant thats in this plaza, is probably my favorite Chinese place in existence. they give you really good deals and if youre not rude, like a lot of people are to people who dont speak the English language very well, you will be treated well. Love this Plaza oh and it has bowling alley to woohoo but watch out because people have been getting slipped drugs in their drinks there so yeah that thats not really woohoo
Worst place to be late night weekends... After getting some Taco Bell, I have stopped over here... One time was a drunk passed out in ground between cars, I have seen people come out of the Bowling Alley, fighting, and last time I was there I watched a car speed past the store fronts and drive into the side of the building...
I grew up near Barberton where the Magic City Plaza was the main shopping center near us for 10 miles in any direction. We used to have Breakfast With Santa in the KMart Cafe at Christmas time, buy presents for our family, and also at back to school time. Also, D&K one of the last 5 and dime stores before they both went out of business now. The secret little get-away Magic City Lanes bowling alley and lounge located in the basement of Magic City Plaza is still in business last I heard. I am hoping that it will continue to be a thriving commerce center for the citizens of Barberton and neighboring localities. Lots of great memories from ventures throughout my life to the merchants all along the plaza.
The plaza is a tad run down, but it is normally pretty busy, the parking lot could use a little work and it would be beneficial to put in a few more popular businesses, but it is a great spot to hit up some affordable stores. K Mart, Dollar Tree, Save A Lot, Rainbow, to name a few. Youll be able to find affordable groceries, clothes, furniture etc. Plus at Dollar Tree, you can find basically anything for a dollar. There are quite a few restaurants located near the plaza as well, like, Taco Bell, Rallys, Angies Italian, White House Chicken and more. As for safety, there is usually a police cruiser that keeps an eye out, through out the plaza, and at near by attractions, in the evenings. Overall, it is a decent little area for quick or long outings, if you are in the Barberton vicinity.
Visited game room too much smoking & the clerks stole money throughout the entire night from the customers through the side games. They put in their friends name in a container to be drawn to win extra money. Theres no way in hell a person/s is that lucky to have their name drawn five to six times every Saturday night continuously. As the clerks continue to have the same persons name drawn the clerks then sign off and writes other customers names down as if they were the winners when it was only the same 2-3 persons every Saturday. Winners should be initiating their names or signing off if they choose that they received these monies, not the emloyees. Games isnt fair.
There is a K-Mart, Big Lots, Dollar Tree, Save-A-Lot, Shoe Store (cant remember the name), 10 Pin Bowling Alley and a number of other stores at this plaza. Across the street is Parasons Restaurant, White House Chicken and a Ralleys. Not my favorite shopping center but very convenient.
This Plaza has a Big Lots, Dollar Tree, Save a Lot & a nail salon, hair salon, tobacco store, bowling alley, bank, metro pcs and chinese restaurant and is across the street from Barberton Chicken, Famous Parassons , Taco bell, Rallys and a laundry mat. You can get a whole lot done in just one handy dandy location!
Its sad to see that every store in the plaza closes so early now even the save a lot closes at 10 when ever other one in the near area is open til midnight or later i heard this was due to drug addicts and panhandlers loitering and the city doesnt want to pay extra to police the plaza it would be nice to see barberton clean up its community instead of living like for lack of better words ignorant steriotypical white trash.
At first site you may not see much but dive in! Kmart always has a great deal but save a lot and doller tree are there also. Use these 3 and if biglots doesnt have it for a little more than these 3 got you covered. Games? Go to gamesurge wirh their video game deals often slashing prices in half your a sure to find what you need. Metro phone stores m. Resteraunts even bowling! Tax aid and a barber. Whats not at this plaza ?
You can get most of your necessities between all the stores and shops in here. Theres a salon, a nail place, a Dollar tree, sav a lot, big lots and I believe a barber shop. Also theres a Kmart or at least there used to be.Theres also a couple little places to grab a bite to eat.
As a man its genuinely hard to find a decent place for a haircut. Most places have young people who just havent seen enough moons to develop their skill yet. The barbershop there by the bowling alley is top notch. With newspapers all over the place and the gentlemen running the shop its definitely a place where a man who is working towards being a positive member of the community in a successful manner can learn a thing or two. The experience can teach you things on how to be a more successful individual and if you pay attention you will get more value out of the conversation let alone a perfectly groomed haircut. ALWAYS tip your barber. The fee is 12 bucks, which is cheaper than any other place. I always pay 15, however if I were more successful I would adjust my tip accordingly to keep a place like this around. As a community we should never allow a business of this caliber to ever close.

2021-07-25What can I say, they have it all! We stopped in right before going on vacation just to maybe pick up some odds and ends. We were able to find everything from beach towels to tooth paste to dog food. You can even get furniture! Several years ago I got a new entertainment center and a couch. The quality was decent, but you definitely cannot beat the price. Five stars for great employees and a pretty good atmosphere.

2021-10-30Pretty run down as a whole here. Im not from barberton so Im not used to it I guess. Only went to rainbow so I cant comment on other stores here. Will be back for one store but not all of them. Should spruce it up a bit, paint goes a long way in making a better appearance.

2021-11-02This plaza has such great potential if we had a little more emptiness filled in like a clothing store such as Walmart, Gabes, Roses, etc.The parking lot needs a complete make over. Was just redone but some areas have already began sinking & cracking.Cmon Barberton we need some magic.😉
