Love the store , the new seafood restaurant was nice wings need to have more taste we had four different kinds they all just tasted all the same
This use to be my spot as a kid, now its just dirty af. Everything is behind counters but Clown Cone is still fabulous.
I like to shop at Simple 10 Smple Shoes City trend.
This shopping center is slowly fading. A few shops have left and looks empty. The economy at its worse
Good stores.alot the thrift store is closed though and it looks abandoned.
My daughter-in-law went up to shoppers world to get my granddaughter heard school uniforms she said the prices were nice and they had that she was very happy with it she said she was going to come back in about a week and get her the skirt set that she seen her uniform colors are navy blue and white and the pants have to be navy blue or beige or tan
Personally 4 me, loved everything about it because I dont shop @ malls.
Didnt visit these places 😕 was visiting Family Dollar though lol
I have shopped at Northern lights for as long as I can remember thats like being at home you know just about everybody I love shopping in Northern lights, when I can get out there love it ,love it, love it!!!.
If you got time today(in my money bagg yo voice) then go, other then that.You will be in the line for 20 to 30 minutes. This store pays there employees to walk around and text. Not to work at all
Its merely like a ghost town with all the store closings. By it being a busy area, you really have to keep your head on a swivel with the traffic. Please wait a couple extra seconds when the traffic light changes. Folks seem to drive very distracted. The intersection of Cleveland Avenue and Innis is a accident in waiting. I just go to the Captain Ds restaurant for a good fish dinner.
Went to Clown Cone and it was a great treat for the day
Saragas is here. I love coming here although I like the one on Morse Rd better. Probably bc I know where things r located there.
Nice place ! You can make your groceries, buy your clothes, fast food, pay your phone, etc.
I only drop off lunch for a friend. Some area snow clean some not.
Ive been shopping here since I was little.Nice prices and good stores .
This area needs to be revamp. Every store in this place needs to be torn down and rebuild. The fast food places in this location is horrible, you wait forever for food they never have. They dont tell you if they are out of somethings if you dont check your bag it will either not be there or they give you something else.
Great variety for kids an prices
Lots of stores. Not enough time to shop like I wanted to
The most incredible place in town, where you can find what you need fitting your size and great looking, I found my self a nice clothes and shoes also a pair of socks, go check them out I recommend everyone to visit from kids to male and females everything.
They drive any kind of wayNot safe
Lots of options the new international market that took place of the old Krogers is amazing.
There are a wide variety of shops here, especially for shopping for womens clothing!!!
Very friendly and helpful. i found all that i needed store was stocked also.
Northern lights is a thing of the past drilling little stores blown away in The wind
Being not from Ohio, I was shocked to see this spot, all the confusion and traffic but with all the good places its understandable. I still say they need to remove some places that are doubled like shoe stores, clothing, clown cone needs a bigger space in front and make a place for youth to come and lounge, relax, gaming, reading etc...adults have too much. Move liquor store across the street.
Shopped at Simply10 , junior and plus sized fashion clothes and accessories for a reasonable price! Has dressing rooms, but usually only 2 in rotation. The staff is amazing and is extremely helpful... i wish i had this store closer to home... for now i just enjoy shopping there during family visits ! Open parking lot, accepts cards and cash. Nice area.
Although the store had many many racks full of clothing its totally disorganized sizes are not together and the two items that I picked out while looking for a third thank God I discovered had very long threads and upon further investigation each garment had a tear in them no Id rather spend a little more recalls or somewhere like that even Walmart
City trends, one of my favorite places to shop for shoes
Needs more stores all of the stores have been closed up or moved away no more thrift stores
Throw back goodies n deals,,, ALWAYS,,, great trucker parking if youre trying to meet... Secure discreet carplay locations and mysecure discreet carplay locations and my incallsecure discreet carplay locations and my incall is right next door
They got every lil store here you can think of that is city fashion related and each store is decently priced. One of my go to shopping spots
The Area was trashed needs cleaned up a lil more. Stores there was very nice & it was very packed. I wish Krogers was still there.😕
I went to Simply10 looking for something in my size and taste they simply dont cut it for me their prices are right but lacking variety of styles. Had to go to Town & Country Citi Trends & Rainbows to find what I was looking for in my size and style.
It was great good store got hair there cheap as hell
Deal day everything 7$ electric..
It was quick, easy, and not too crowded
Give it one star theres no stopping signs or anything like that to tell you where to stop at that Northern Lights Shopping Center the really bad place to take and drive a car through
Several stores to choose from anything you could possibly be looking for it does close a little early for my liking but as long as you get there in a reasonable amount of time you should get all your shopping done .
Its okay. I hear people talk highly of this area. I find it to be very dirty looking. I went through. I think the Wendys drive thru any the associate was high and couldnt remember my order and still gave me the wrong stuff.
Miss Kroger💯 and some of the restaurants. Are gone.you have to go way up on Morse Road to go to a Krogers to shop .it was the only major store that was in the area .they have a Save-A-Lot but it does not carry name brand Foods .And for the area it is in they dont care😞
This is one of the places I shop, if you want the best out of your money, come shop here
Went to North Star Cafe and enjoyed a really delicious breakfast this morning while my car was being repaired at Dennis Hyundai. Scrambled eggs and bacon were absolutely perfect and the biscuit was a work of art! Crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside with wild cherry preserves. Topped it off with a cup of coffee. The cafe is beautiful and offers additional seating in an outdoor patio area. A wall of magazines are available to read while enjoying your meal. Prices are medium range. Recommend a visit soon for a very pleasant dining experience.
Ive growed up in this neighborhood ever since elementary school I went to Linden Elementary and I remember the good old days in the 80s Northern Lights had an arcade room pizza shop ice cream shop in Linden Beach in clown cone ice cream is only one left and still has great ice cream but every thing else has went downhill over the years not too much left anymore just a couple stores thats about it
This shopping center was not the cleanest of shopping centers so i have to give a 3 out of 5 unfortunately and the service was okay but it could have been so much better i did get what I was looking for tho so i cant give them anything less than a 3 out of 5 cause they were well equipped with the things I did need.
Went here to catch a bus to Amish country.
I went to Hair Joy. Great selection of product. Great customer service. I will shop there again next time I visitColumbus Ohio.😊
Its a great place to find whatever you need, from banking to eating to shopping for the holidays!
Its ok. It would be nice if the world had more civilized and respectful people in it though. This is your neighborhood, be proud in your doings with integrity.
They took away the convenience of going there by charging a withdrawal fee to get money back. Also check the expiration date on the products you buy there, the seafood I bought there turned out to be a year past the used by date.
Dont go to this location if youre looking to find what you need. The stores are DIRTY. A lot of the clothing items have stains on them before even leaving the store. Theres always someone outside trying to beg for money, and the employees are rude.
Variety of stores and fast food
Great deals all over this place but.... Lock your car up before going in. Also wear A mask.
Always clean and Friendly,staff is very helpful in assisting with your needs
While the stock photo for this mall shows a Krogers which is no here, Im more than happy with the Saraga International Market which took its place. I think of it as an average grocery with much more variety and flavor options.
I really love my nails looks just like the picture they are glow in the dark she did an amazing time the only negative thing i would have to say is the wait was long.... The picture of the nails and then what my nails look like
Love the experience and interesting location. Plenty of good selections of variety.
Seems like the area is dying. Many empty store fronts. Not clean. Went in the Kroger store ... STINKY! Filthy parking lot. Zombie employees. I asked two different employees the same question and neither could answer. I wanted the location of a product. NOT going back!
I wont a lot for people in the Parking lot at any if the stores. So you could be in and out for a store without waiting in a very long line.
Everytime im out there Im being asked for a cigarette or if I have change your always being watch by the police the fast foods are always packed or the workers for the most part barley work so it takes months overall avoid this area just all around toxic
For the most part I found my experience at the shopping center to be pleasant. However I am a little disgruntled in regards to them closing the Kroger store due to the fact that a lot of elderly people and families with small children and no transportation can only get to that particular store.
Overcrowded the clothing racks are too close together they dont offer shopping bags or carts.? I prefer the one on South High Street bigger store better organized
I only go here for the clothes and phone stores but you have some of everything in the plaza I love it
Northern Lights is not what it used to be before Kroger closed but still has several places worthy of checking out. Shoppers World, Captain D, (love the sea food), Infinity to name a few; and 2 really great thrift stores. Also has a decent grocery store & lots of little shops for one to just browse.
Wish they still had Krogers or a Walmart. Area definitely needs fresh produce & groceries. Clothing store are ok not great. The liquor store probably does the most business. Fast food selection is ok as well. Some upgrades in overall quality wouldnt hurt.
Went bear today on a Sunday it says they open at 12 I stay there till 12:15 the store still has not open so sad because nobody wants to work
Watch yourself in this area, shady characters, the police stay in the parking lot. If you shop from here, be prepared to look like everybody else. All the food taste like dirty water in this area and I always feel sick afterwards. Its is a lot of stores but you get what you pay for in customer service.
The new international store that replaced Kroger has a man decent live fish selection. This location is new so the grocery variety isnt like their Morse rd and maize location.
Needs to be kept cleaner in the kroger parking lot. Dirty diapers, fast food bags full of trash, empty BOXES of diapers, empty cigarette packs, broken down grocery carts, etc. Always, Always, stay aware of your surroundings. There are a couple of places I shop here but for the most part, I use other locations.They do have a good variety of shopping and eating though.
This place is really a bargain! A friend brought me to shoppers world and I was in heaven! I cant wait to go back to get discounted prices. ❤️
OMG I had a blast shopping with my daughter she brought me an outfit and I purchased a $10 pair of boots Ive been wanting Great prices and selections I will be back soon for my winter wardrobe
Ok place I guess. Stores are worth the visit only if you live in the area strictly a convenience thing. Except Kroger. I recommend the new one at Karl and Morse. There is a high chance you could get robbed mooched and/or in an accident driving around here.
This is where I always shop. Close to home, has everything you need for a quick stop. Do all my grocery shopping at this Krogers. If they dont have it a simple request will get it. Love the way the Infinity has branched out to carry everything from hair supplies to furniture!
On a very rare occasion you will find someone who treats you like an equal or even a normal customer. Most places at northern lights hire the rudest non customer service folks Ive ever seen. Like, just being there trying to give them money is ruining their day.

I miss krogers soooooo much. Although Ive never been to a third world country but driving through this place seems like its pretty spot on, with that experience. Theres always litter everywhere, which is disappointing to know that store owners dont care to keep their lil 40 acres clean and a lil worse that the people that navigate through there feel trifling enough to just throw it everywhere but the damn trash cans. I dont go there too often anymore but when I do I try to be in and out.
Someone hit my wifes new car in the parking lot in front of Citi trends and no one seen anything or know nothing she havent had the car 24 hrs. Now it has a dent in the side.... will not shop in this area again...
Excellent service 👏 and an easy access for handicap parking neat stores. 👍
Not what it use to be like when I was a kid. Still a fee good stores to shop at as well as fast food restaurants to eat at left in the shopping center. When I was a kid there was was lot one empty retail space.
They have all types of clothes over there, from adults, children and infant also they have men shoes, kids, women, and also all kind of slippers.
Warzone area. Avoid this place when you can. Door Dash and gig workers is even a safety risk here as well.
Northern Lights what can I say its terrible lots of cheap stores knockoff stores etc. The best thing in the shopping center is Krogers and it closes Jan. 31 2018 due to lack of profit. To much stealing by customers and employees. Morse Rd. And the High street location better need up the Lose Prevention cause theyre coming...
As much as I go there and like the convenience I wish I could give this place more stars, but for safety reasons I cannot. Several times I have been approached by strange people (mostly men) asking for money mostly, I even had a guy grab my door and not let me close it. Not the best neighborhood. Be Careful!!!!
Oh Northern Lights, this shopping center has a few stores that you cant find anywhere else, Clown Cone reigns supreme here in my opinion. But other than necessary trips this shopping center is to be avoided. Rude customers are kept in check by even more rude employees. Ive been coming here for over 30 years and the last 20 have seen a steady decline in the quality of the stores and their patrons.
I enjoy this shopping...ive been shopping here for many years...i have traveled from the eastside of town to the northside
A little dangerous, people fly through the intersections and dont follow the traffic patterns.. they have cleaned this up nicely.
Krogers isnt there any more. Its a new market that caters to foreigners or Muslims. Stuff is very high priced. Fish market looked good and the produce looked good, most of it I didnt know what it was.
Come to this place 6 times a week and it’s a pretty active shopping center with a various of shops!
Great liquor store and teen mobile is very helpful there.alot of other stores.the McDonalds is the worst never gets the order right
Most of the stores have poor customer serviceFor example The restaurants including McDonalds of all places have the slowest services ive ever experiencedKroger has the longest lines on the city due to very few cashiers
Please, if you value your life in any way, do not go to this squalid hole of a shopping center. Well, with the exception of the Thrift Store. But seriously. The THRIFT STORE is the nicest place in this strip. Thats saying a lot. People get shot, robbed, and stabbed in this place. Not somewhere you want to find yourself. Even if you live here. And I do, I actually live in this neighborhood and can tell you first hand it is terrible. Nothing charming about it.
Giant concrete jungle, no shade for miles ... welcome to the strip mall! But like so many they are teeming with junk food so I hit the Mickey Ds :)
Fun, friendly and welcoming place to shop and do window shopping. Its a nice familial feeling when you get there. Friendly people seem to be all around you. And everyone wants to help you if you need help. Its a good place to shop and window shop.
Enjoyed myself at the lucky duck. didnt win much but had a great time. safety is my concern but there was no problem.
I have gone to Northern Lights since 8-3-90 when U lived at Love Zion Manor. Unfortunately they have closed alot of stores but whats there is still nice to go to.
An adventure, perfect place to find a gift for all occasions. Love to shop there
I live on the opposite side of town and still prefer northern lights. Some of the best Chinese general tsos chicken can be found here. Infinity is an empire all in itself. Its like a one stop shop. You would go in for one thing, and come out with 20 things you never thought of getting. I used to prefer Ohio thrift, but since they raised their prices, village discount has been my go to spot. They never disappoint.
Im very disappointed by the stores that have pulled out of the Northern Lights Shopping Center that had been there for years. Stables for the community. however when I go there now it gives me a feeling of depression and depravity, of being run down and unkept. I am quite disappointed in the upkeep of Northern Lights Shopping Center. It had always carried various department stores to cover just about any need you would ever have and now there are so few normal stores there that I dont even bother to go shop there now.
The reason why I have this 3 stars is that this shopping center could be so much more: cleaner, redesigned layout, and better stores. I personally believe that Cleveland Avenue from Morse Road (161 even) south to downtown will and SHOULD be gentrified. The shopping center should pursue that forward thinking NOW.
Great place to go to get a deal on all of your needs from cell phones to apparel and shoes! They have a store for everyone from high end all the way to thrift stores!
I love working for Metro by TMobile
L.A. Nails is my favorite place to go and get all of my woman needs taken care of. My nail technician Crystal is awesome. Its a one stop shop, I just love that.
Clown Cones. Ice Cream shop. Hidden in the back strip of Northern Lights, Clown Cones has been delighting children for over 35 years.with delicious ice cream and a large assortment of candy that can be selected and put in a basket before purchase. You have to see the decor to top off the experience. 30 years ago my children and now their children have had the best of he best
This shopping area is pretty much dead only reason you should go here is for Clown Cone or the thrift shops the kroger there shut down every thing at northern lights can be found on morse rd and the area is just so ghetto and dirty now would not recommend going here unless you going to Clown Cone or the variety of fast food places and thrift shops there otherwise just go to Morse Rd
I remember when this shopping center was in a lot better condition some of the stores are that are open are really the only reason anybody even still goes there anymore cuz theyre not too bad but it can get kind of shady and uncomfortable in certain times of the day great liquor store though
I use to love coming here as a kid. As I have gotten older a lot of stores have closed down with Krogers being the most recent. There are a few good stores left in the area but it has been depleted for those that live in the areas and lack of transportation to get to places like Easton or Polaris Mall. Even to go shopping for groceries has become a hassle for the local families. Only option they have is Save a lot. Not everyone shops there. So either they have to find transportation to Aldis on Silver drive, IGA on oakland Park ( they are very over priced), Morse rd Krogers, High St. & E. N. Broadway Krogers or down on campus Krogers.
The mall is kinda small. I dont really shop there. I like going to bigger malls like Polaris or Easton. But if youre looking for a small specific thing, you might find it there
Avoid this place like the plague. Doesnt matter your race, religion, or gender, this area is a stain on Columbus. All fast food in this area is horrible. Bed bugs in the thrift stores. Traffic is horrible as well. Go just a couple miles north to Morse road for 2 star service, but stay away from here at all costs. I wouldnt even recommend anyone working in this area either, high crime rate.
They had a good variety of stores. You can find just about anything youre looking for here and maybe some things you didnt expect
It may look sketchy but i have been shopping here for years and i can assure you the prices cant be beat
All ways something interesting to see for bird watchers and the lunch crowd. plenty of parking.
Not bathroom not good services
Like the mix of stores in strip mall and numbering stores across the street in other strip malls plus people in stores are pretty nice and helpful
Clown cone is one of the oldest and most popular place in the Northern Lights plaza. There is a wide variety of ice creams, soda,food, slushies and candies. Always a great family enviorment Theres also many varieties of stores to shop at. Shoppers World, Family Dollar, City Trends and many others. If your looking for something, Northern Lights should definitely fulfill your needs.
Its very trappy. A lot of people asking for money and begging. A lot of people loitering out there smoking weed and standing outside of the stores. The police are stationary in the parking lot 24/7 because of crime.
Shopped here for decades. There are some problems but just be careful dont feel threatened. Still a great choice to shop thrift stores grocery smoke shop and Clown Cone. A ice cream and candy store the kids loved
I went to the Huntington Bank.. right beside it is a Somalian Cafe... there was so much trash beside each car in the driveway... really scary.. think I will go to the one in Westerville.. next time.. dont recommend this for the average person.. photo will be available next time
I will not be going back. Didnt have any cash but people trying to sell me news papers or begging for money wouldnt take no for an answer. Their store smelled and it looked like everything was pulled out of a dumpster.
They have everything fresh it is when you buy something from Krogers from the pro department is fresh never had a problem with anything I bought out of there
The stores are always dirty! People are always just hanging out and asking for $
Ghettofied and everything there is run down and trashy, avoid this place as it is like Mogadishu minus the Somali Warlords, they allowed their country to turn to trash and are working hard to trash our homeland next.Hold these people accountable.
I gave it 3 stars but its more like 2 and a half. You have sprint, t-mobile, Krogers, and many more stores. I give it 2 and a half stores because its a little hood(ghetto for white people). Its close to me that Im more effici to get my local shopping done.
Its a nice place for a quick sweep through when u really need groceries or a bite to eat,but I wouldnt shop there very often, the people arent bad ,but the bathrooms r a mess and stuff isnt well organised very well for u to find stuff!
The bakery there didnt have a working printer to decorate my cake. They had to rush and get the cake done and it still looked horrible. But at least we got it free, so that was a plus.
Always great service at infinity
A wide variety of great shopping is located at northern lights. I buy most of my professional attire during Ohio Thrifts half priced Wednesdays, buy most of my shoes at Simply 10, Citi trends or shoppers world and purchase most of my beauty supplies at US Hair. The new Saraga has all kinds of strange and new to me products and restaurants to explore and Clown Cone is and old favorite to take the kids to for ice cream and penny candy. The only draw back is the lack of clear traffic patterns in the parking lot and the constant police presence which seems as if by design. The Clinton township police department probably gets a good deal of funding through traffic stops along this strip of Cleveland ave and the NoLi parking lot, so drive safe and stay vigilant.
They have nice and reasonable stuff and I will be back at shoppers world I love how they have variety of different stuff in the store
Wish all the stores open at 9am had to waste time in other stores because some open at 10and some at 11
Big truck repair place really quick not bad on the price used for years
Never had a bad experience but it seems very unsafe. Use common since and lock up your things. There is a large selection of shops here. Kroger, Infinity 99, Popeyes, A&W, US Bank etc..
Good variety, without all that fancy new looking stuff to distract the serious shopper.
Got Remy 1738 but had to travel from the Eastside to finally have my birthday drink
The Krogers grocery store no longer exists in this plaza, but a Saraga international grocery store has replaced it and they have an amazing selection of produce, meat, seafood, and tons more!
It really poor service out here , no good clothes nor options , workers sucks , it’s a waste of time it’s basically the last place on earth you want to if you needed clothes
Northern lights is always one of my highlights shopping trips when I come to Columbus Ohio Ive just moved to Elyria Ohio after 37 years of living in Columbus so I know northern lights very well I plan to purchase something from each one of the stores over the next 10 years
Its the hood but customer service is always better here and clown cone of course ! Plus how can you go wrong with 3 beauty supply stores?! I gave it 3 stars because the Kroger is gone 😞 also try the pit BBQ
Great school uniform selection
So much has changed in the last 5 years in this area. I do so enjoy the wide range of options presented to me, but its hard to enjoy shopping when youre worried about being robbed.
The store is limited as far as used games go. Buying a membership only benefits the store. They dont offer fair trade or buy back of consumers merchandise.
Northern Lights has a great variety of shops, food hair clothing and theres even a friendly bar to get a cold beer. Oh and watch the OSU game! The group that hangs out theres fun
Krogers is closed and has been replaced by another grocery chain that specialize in international foods a hidden gem good place to shop I saw a person pull out their Krogers card forgot where they were
Not a bad place for trendy clothes and the process arent too bad. However, I have a hard time finding things that I like and/or my size.
Great place to shop
It was an ok shopping center.
Excellent place to go to do your shopping. You can visit any store of your choice and get just about anything that you want all in one convenient location.
At northern lights, its basically meant for shipping and eating. Its decent to shop on weekdays during school hours. However, crossing Cleveland avenue is a hassle and often times people driving dont pay attention to the pedestrians (not the fault of the shopping center), therefore causing accidents and for pedestrians, getting hit or almost hit by a car (I was almost hit a few times and the drivers know there is a WALK sign for pedestrians to walk, they sometimes try to hit you anyway). The actual shopping center itself is decent, it does tend to get crowded after school hours so be mindful of that (and worse in weekends in the afternoon, but thats to be expected). Also...sirens. 9 times out of 10 you will hear sirens from ambulatory trucks and ladder engines going up and down Cleveland avenue. Other than that its decent.
You cant beat the prices
Just like the Amos Shopping Center across the street, high crime and run-down stores, along with an overall low morale with all of the individual stores employees, it is important to remain alert and confident during your visit here.
Decrepit, most of the money has slowed since Kroger closed its doors. Still, the shopping center has its home town charms like Clown Cone Ice Cream (try the lemon in the summer!).
The city bus main routes come here and make it an unruly shopping experience. The stores located here are nice.. but you get too many beggars near the Radio shack, and beverage store.
Northern Lights has seen better days. But Shoppers World is an awesome cheap store that makes the strip mall...
Northern lights shopping center has lots of places to eat and shop I have enjoyed visiting with some of the shop at Northern Lights shopping center
Great prices store is always a mess staff is entertaining them selfs standing around talking to one another. Great selection of school uniforms.
This area is the shopping center I grew up to. I always come here for groceries and the people are always nice. There is mostly african american race that populate the area, there is alot to do and many places for food and clothes.
Well stocked. Great deals with already reasonable prices... Awesome location and good costumer service!
Out of all the places to go shopping in Columbus, this might not be at the top of my list to go. But all and all, they do have a lot of places to choose from and some okay prices. So its definitely worth checking out.
This place is a nightmare. Driving around is a free for all. There are a few good stores/restaurant in this plaza. Pit Stop and Clown Cone are the only reason I risk driving here lol
Did Not find what I needed for my son. Poor availability in sizes for a 17 year old. 🤦🏽♀️
Visited city trend saw an outfit for my two year old great neice for her birthday then went to rainbows to buy an outfit for my future wife & we couldnt find anything what so ever we even had the same issue @ shoppers world.
Alot of trash in parking lot and birds but good places to shop
Everything out in the open a lot of things to choose from its just the area that is in it could be better way much better but the people who built it put more money into Easton instead of putting it there and our life to make it better
Northern Lights has the cutest little candy store in the back called clown cone. And there is an Infinity 99 Cent Store that has just expanded and now they sell more furniture have a layaway plan for their furniture they have over 10,000 items for less than a dollar.
Disorganized and dirty the store has a funky old house smell
I want here since I was little its still as great as it was back then
Good customer service

They Need To Kind Of Tighten security Because There Was A Drunk Man Following Me And Also People Fighting. Nice Store secretion There And A Website With Every Store Website And number Would Be Nice I Keep looking For K.C Website And Clown Cone...
Hair stores, fast food basics, and a few clothing stores is all thats left in this shopping center; Infinity 99€ Store and Clown Cones are definitely the MAIN attractions in this area!
There are a variety of shop at Northern Lights .All you have to do is come out and see what you like . There are plenty of fast food restaurants in the area as well as shopping- enjoy
Stop at long john silvers, the root bear float was good , the fish sandwich only barely eatable, i m not a fish fan, but i wanted a rootbeer float.
Northern Lights Shopping Center has been developing very slow over the years but its finally at a stage where it can adequately serve the public
Clown cone is the only reason Ive been coming here for the last 40 years. Deserving of an award. If you dont know clown cone and Mark. You dont know Columbus ohio.....
People beg for money in parking lost theres trash all over
They have some nice clothing at reasonable prices but not a big selection in plus sizes.
Cool place to stop, alot of times its my one stop shopping for the weekend.
Shopping center has been run down over the years, but have maintained a good selection of stores to shop at.
There is a big litter problem. The area is very ghetto. There are many shops, so you can probably get everything you need. Good prices.
Variety of stores. In one central location. Excellent shopping selections

I love Northern Lights it alot of stores choose from fashion from shoes to hair when trying find clothes or shoes hair they are different shops that you can go to so.
The reason why I go to Northern Lights is because of Great Clips Great liquor and great places to get different type of styles you like its a great Plaza that I recommend anybody who lives around there
Went to Ohio Thrift store. Love shopping there , employees are friendly. They have 2 half off everything days which is awesome!
One of the newest locations. Impressive organic produce. Fabulous deli staff and products. Great grocery store.
Always love going here.. Several stores all in one area. From grocery to household even thrift stores for shopping on a budget
COTA recommends its app. Google just took a me and my GPS on journey to work with instructions to kill....or at least starve after getting fired.
I used to go into this store frequently for work. I got harrassed by people in parking lot a lot. Begged for money, was always dirty in the parking lot and line at service desk is always long i never tried to use service desk.
Some cool shopping spots, not a great area at nighttime, but its unlikely youll run into trouble. Cops frequent the parking lots.

2022-06-14Nice place but a lot of items I was looking for completely out of stock. No forks or spoons. They need to add more self service cashier stations for large item counts.

2022-05-21I stopped at the Dollar General for a few items and the employees were very very nice. However everything I purchased ran up a different price than was marked on the shelf. Also the bumps in the parking lot are so bad I would never visit on a regular basis. Only emergency purchases....

2022-04-05This entire center should be demolished. Potholes so big and deep, you might find fish 🐟 in them. Sad, but true. This area needs to be redone for the people in all neighborhoods and surrounding and communities.

2021-12-11Got a phone at the boost store. Service was fast and to the point. Little beautiful lady working that night had me flustered too. Adorable she was. Want to go back and ask her on a date if I ever see her there again
