Convenient! But all my favorite stores have gone bye-​bye! I get depressed every time I walk past what use to be Body Central and Wet Seal! I love how this mall is RARELY crowded. Always easy to get in and out! Oh yeah, I vote that they put Dairy Queen back in the mall!!!

The mall is one now that I only go to if I need to pick up something and don’t have time to do somewhere else. Many stores have left the mall and they have lost some of the big retailers such as Sears and Macy’s. You find many of the stores that are opening up are small non franchise low budget stores. When I was outside the mall last weekend parking to go to the neighboring movie theatre there is an increased crowd of young people that seem to gather outside the mall and an increased police presence to continue to try to break up. This was not the first time. Hopefully they will revamp this mall but till then I will be limiting my shopping experiences.

It’s actually a good size mall but they could use some good stores. There are quite a few open spaces. Also they used to have an awesome go out golf. But the last time we were there we found out the rude man who owned the business next door offered the mall twice the rent to take over the space. So one month after singing their yearly lease the mall said oh never mind you can’t have the space after all. Isn’t that illegal? Sad. The mall needs a lot of tlc

In my experience, once a mall turns 20, it needs an overhaul. And if it never gets that makeover, it’s about to get demolished… OR, it has taken the title of the worst mall in Hampton Roads. Chesapeake Square is 26 years old, and looks it.
I remember when this mall first opened and it was amazing… not just because I was a seven year old. It was vibrant, busy, and new and everything Chesapeake and Portsmouth needed. Now, if you live in Portsmouth and need to go to the mall, you should go thru the toll for MacArthur. Likewise with Chesapeake, or even head to Greenbrier.
When Burlington Coat Factory and Target are your anchor stores, you are in trouble. That’s Chesapeake Square Mall. They also have a JCPenney, and I feel like it does well, but what competition does it have? The Macy’s is one floor and crammed. I swear it’s not like any other Macy’s you’ve ever been to. I only come here for Hallmark. Otherwise, the best thing in this mall is the food court.

I found the mall to be rather dull and boring. Didn’t really have an atmosphere that made me want to spend money. It felt like a strip mall but only inside; lots of underutilized space.

Very small and not too many stores to choose from. Other than that it’s a great spot to find a deal or catch a sale going on at the larger department stores. This is a great place if you aren’t looking for a huge crowd while accomplishing your shopping needs, also if you want to catch a movie, there is a theater on the outskirts of the mall that you can easily walk to.

I enjoy this mall because it has reasonable price stores. It could use a few more stores not just to replace the vacant stores but because more options is always a good thing.
It is a safe, clean and climate controlled environment for everyone. Moms and tots having their meet ups in the play area, seniors drinking coffee and making laps around the building.
The childs play area, a new children run and play area for big kids is a nice addition. A big kid arcade would be nice doesn’t have to be a big Dave and Busters but along that scale.
If we had bigger name stores more people would shop here. Heading in the direction of an outside mall would be a nice change for the area and landscape view.

This mall is awesome! Great play area for kids. Lots of stores and selections, very spacious. I love their indoor bungee jumping! They even have coin operated rides in food court area.

This a mall that has always had potential but never made it. The best things they have to offer is a decent theater, target, and location. Inside the mall is clearly in decline. Outside the mall is doing everything they can to build the outer ring which is doing ok. This appears to be a poor management.

On shopping days that do not include the words ‘outlet mall’ or ‘pottery’ in them, I like to use this place as our go to shopping experience. It is a short drive from the house (relative) with an abundance of usable shops centrally located.
To go to Sears (where I swore I would never spend another cent) I have to go in this direction. Target, another. Penny’s, Sam’s, Mr. Drucker’s General Store (that would be Walmart for you slow on the take) yet another. So, with a little concentrated drive I can cover just about all of my bases (and I pass the Kohl’s that the XYL wants to leave me for, and the new Kroger which will hopefully have Kroger Gas there).
Shopped at JC Penny’s today. Helpful salesman-​ette who showed us several options of the item we were looking for. We were in and out (have to go to the catalog to find a different color) with a minimum of fuss.
Pleasant shopping experience.

There’s tons of shops around and plenty of restaurants. I can spend the entire day over there. I like the convenience of having all of the major shops in the area.

As others have previously stated, this mall does the job. I find myself coming here a lot since it is the only mall on the Portsmouth side of the river. Because the stores themselves are a lot smaller than other malls in the Hampton Roads area, I never find everything on my shopping list here.

I rarely come here to shop, but my daughter needed a pick me up, so we went walking to see what is left inside. So many empty stores and so many that don’t appeal to us. At this point I think it would be better to drive farther to a better mall than waste time here.

Hey we have a few new stores. Just picked up my new pillows at JCPENNEY ’ S and a new saucepan at Macy’s. Love the double chicken rice dish in the foid court.
Ran by J.B. Robinson’s to drool on the chocolate diamond collection. Always love Target’s food and wine selections.
Oops avoiding the timeshare booth folks. They are so funny. They always have such great deals just. for me Hee Hee!

Our poor sad little mall. It’s all we got people. Better give it some business or we’ll lose it! There are good anchor stores. Target, Burlington, Macy’s, Sears, Penney’s. Plus a new movie theatre that is soooo nice! If you just shop these places & don’t enter the mall itself, it’s not so bad. When you enter the mall, It’s intimidating. Too many «wrif wraf» hanging out. There are great smaller stores, Bath & Body, New York, Hallmark, Gymboree, Stride Rite, Footlocker, Body Central and more. The food court is spacious. Just not a huge selection of places to eat. Chinese, Chic-​Fa-​La, a burger place, Sabarros. I really hope our little mall comes around & some new blood enters. They should do some updating & painting. It’s not too late!

Now I know this isn’t the greatest mall in Hampton Roads… but it’s a mall. They have most of the staples that a mall should have:
New York & Co
Bath and Body Works
Victoria’s Secret
Target
Sears
Sbarro
That’s all I need for 3 stars.

It does the job… if you like department stores that is. Not too much variety in here. But it’s convenient for me. Never crowded here. Well unless it’s a major holiday, but on any given weekend… not packed at all.
Definitely call the stores ahead time before you go. As some stores on the directory are no longer apart of Chesapeake Square.
But there is a nice play area for children about 6 and under. There is a food court with about 10 eateries. Also you have Sears, Macys, JcPenny, Burlington Coat Factory. Again. it does the job.
If you need something quick you have a few stores to choose from. In a way, that makes shopping easy… in and out!

What a hell hole. Unfortunately this is the closet mall to me and until January 2012 I solely came here for the Gap and Gap kids but now sadly it is closed. What else does this place have? Let me put it like this: there’s a Piccadilly’s café in the mall. That’s pretty much all you need to know. I’ve heard rumors they’re going to tear it down and do a town center to match that nice new movie theater next to it. Great idea. After the Gap closed, I don’t think I will ever step foot in that mall again. Good riddance.
