Del Monte Shopping Center - Monterey, California

I recently took a 30-minute walk from Old Fisherman's Wharf to explore the Del Monte Shopping Centre.

This bustling hub is clearly a popular destination for locals, offering a wide variety of stores and amenities.

From major retailers like Sephora, Lululemon and Macy's to speciality shops for clothing, cooking, and furniture, there's something for everyone. The shopping centre also features a movie theatre, making it a great place for a day of shopping and entertainment.

I was particularly impressed by the variety of food options available. Whether you're craving a quick snack or a full meal, you'll find plenty of choices to satisfy your appetite. The shopping centre is well-organized, with ample parking and sheltered walkways that make it easy to navigate.

For pet lovers, there's a large pet store with a wide selection of supplies. You can also find a pharmacy with a comprehensive range of medications and a supermarket like Whole Foods, offering organic produce, prepared foods, and a vast selection of salads.

Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by the Del Monte Shopping Centre. It's a convenient and enjoyable place to spend a day, whether you're a local or a visitor.

I visited the shopping center in Monterey on a Saturday around lunchtime, and while the location is great, I was surprised by how little foot traffic there was. It felt quite empty, which is unusual for a weekend. Some stores, like Gap and Victoria's Secret, seem to be struggling, with empty shelves and a lack of new inventory. It would be nice to see more vibrant activity and better product selections to attract shoppers. Overall, the shopping experience could benefit from some revitalization to draw in more customers

We are very blessed and lucky to have this shopping center. It is a treasure for the county. The landscaping is beautiful and impeccably maintained. All the shops are beautiful and well kept.. many delicious restaurants to eat in. Five stars all the way

It’s clean and pretty. It has a lot of common mall shops. Even with all of that, it’s a shadow of what it was in the 80s & 90s, but it’s family friendly which is becoming a rarity in Monterey County. It has a great movie theater and one of the best local gyms. Parking isn’t bad if you park on the backside. Most people park on the Shop heavy side which is always a hotspot. Meanwhile, if you don’t mind a small walk, which is what you’re going to do at an outdoor mall anyway, the back parking lot is huge and plentiful as well as pretty.

During my visit to Del Monte Shopping Center in Monterey, I had a really enjoyable experience. The outdoor layout was refreshing, making it more than just a shopping trip—it felt relaxing to walk around. I found a great mix of stores, from Macy's for essentials to Lush for some indulgent self-care products. Grabbing a coffee at Starbucks and later enjoying sushi at Yama Sushi Bar made it a well-rounded day.

Parking was easy, which is always a plus, and the center was clean and well-maintained. However, I did notice that a couple of stores seemed to have closed, which limited some options. Still, for its convenience, variety, and atmosphere, it’s a place I’d visit again!

This mall has something for everyone including: Macy's, H & M, Starbucks, Hot Topic, See's Candies, Bath & Body, restaurants, a play area for children and a lot more. The center is well maintained and landscaped nicely with plants and benches to sit and rest upon between stores. Clean public restrooms are available for shoppers.
