Umm Wow! I stumbled upon this shopping center and it is so cute! They have so many good stores and food right in one location. I agree with some of the other reviews about parking. I’m sure on weekends it is super busy. However, I went in the middle of a weekday and I found a spot super quick.
I love this place because it is not the mall. I steer clear of the mall so this is a nice option to hit a few stores!

I like mockingbird station for a couple reasons. I just wished I liked more here.
Angelika theater is great and if you haven’t visited, please do. It’s small and they show various movies from popular new releases to documentaries to foreign films.
The restaurants and bars are ok. I like the people’s last stand the most. I’ll also visit urban taco and café on rare occasions. Other restaurants don’t seem to last or are not very good. There’s a Starbucks but unless I’m shopping here, I wouldn’t stop at this location since it isn’t the most convenient.
Shopping is ok but The last time I shopped for anything here was a sun hat at the gap 3 years ago. There’s a gap, urban outfitters, & west elm to name a few places.
Raymond Michael Salon is great as is Castle Nail Spa.
My preference for parking is the dart lot. There is surface and garage parking as well.

Parking is difficult, but otherwise great shops and restaurants!

The Mockingbird station is a nice shopping area for locals or tourist alike. The DART is conveniently down stairs and they have a huge movie theater the Anglica that host the Dallas film festival very year. Great place to get some shopping done without having to go to the mall.

Not much to it. Also parking can be pretty sparse around here. I very much enjoy going to the Angelika though when I’m out here to see an indie film. Everything else… Starbucks, Victoria’s Secret etc I’d skip. I think they need more original stores and fun boutiques honestly. I will say I love me some Francesca’s though. Cannot get enough of that store and end up staying there forever just looking at cute scarves, purses and knick knacks!

This shopping place is okay. They don’t have that many shops that I love. We took the dart here hoping to be able to spend a full day here but it really did not work out that way. We walked around and window shopped for about 30 minutes and then we were done! I do like that they have Angelika here though, so if you are just wanting to go to these certain shopping places, and then go catch a movie, after the movie you have many options to grab a drink but I don’t see myself coming back to this complex

I love coming to Mockingbird station when the weather’s nice. It makes for a great a relaxing day of shopping and dining. Plenty of retail shops like Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, Bath and Body Works, along with some boutiques as well. There’s a good selection of restaurants — Café Express, Smashburger, Urban Taco, etc. It’s always clean, and never overly crowded. The shops here always seem to have more items than the other shops — probably because everyone goes to the mall locations rather than the shops here.
Sometimes, when it gets crowded, the parking situation kinda sucks — I don’t like parking in the garage because the lanes in there are so small. Other than that, I really enjoy Mockingbird Station.

I love parking and riding at Mockingbird Station. It is located next to numerous attractions. The station is also walking distance from SMU. This is one of the nicest dart stations in Dallas. It has escalators that go down to the train. Super convienent.

Mockingbird Station is a fun shopping and dining place to go on a beautiful day or a date night. There is a wide variety of things to do here. Doesn’t matter if you are a hipster, socialite, teenager, intellect, or a tourist they will have something here for you. What I dislike the most about this place is the parking!

While the shopping and dining are nice here, security is out of control. I parked my car for 45 minutes to come back and find an orange sticker stuck to my window. The problem? Parked too long. How is 45 minutes too long? I came to work with a client and the security threatens to tow my car. Not one place is it posted how long you can park in the open lot in front of Starbucks and Park Cities Bank. It is sad when I go to make a living and their security feels like I don’t belong. Is my 2010 car too old? Was my suit not nice enough? I’m angry that I have to go here so often, and afraid that my car will be towed for no reason every time I park. If you go here, don’t park for more than 45 minutes! You might find your car missing, or you’ll spend another 45 minutes removing the adhesive from your window.

I think this is the best shopping center ever. They have great stores, some of which are very pricey which keeps the «scrags» away (but attracts them as shoplifters). The parking sucks but if you come here knowing what you want, its well worth it.

I’ve used «mass transit» several times in the city
Lots of standing for the space is itty-​bitty.
I used the Dart to ride to the state fair
Twenty bucks to park? How they dare!
But back to be point, it’s not so bad to ride
It’s more the stench… I know something died
The people must also be a different breed
All germaphobes, please take heed.
But there’s plenty of seating, I think the chairs are blue
And I remember being on it thinking how the time flew.
It’s pretty quick and it gets the job done.
If you’re with your friends, anythings fun!

Everything you need in one giant plaza. Shopping? You name it. They’ve got some of my favorite stores around. With American Apparel, Urban Outfitters and Movida Boutique, you’ve got plenty of options right under your fingertips. Best of all, it’s all walking distance and allows you to conveniently avoid the hustle and bustle of the mall. Hungry? They’ve got quite a variety of great food options are here. If you’re on a budget and looking for something hearty, Smashburger or Café Express have got you covered. Other dining options include Rockfish, Café Hererra, Urban Taco for sit-​down options. For days when it’s cold out and you’re looking to kick back and relax, grab a warm coffee drink from Strabucks and catch a interesting indie flick at the Angelika. And of course, there’s always nightlife. Twin Peaks is a lively option for catching the game and there are plenty of other fun bars around to grab a cocktail and mingle with friends. I love everything about this location. Convenient, safe, and parking is pretty much a breeze. Mockingbird Station is a one-​stop-​shop for pretty much every taste and interest in my book!

This is a great shopping area full of cool restaurants and a movie theatre! Don’t forget the comedy club! Easily assessable from 75 and dart rail! Check out the remodel! Big changes happening here! Lots of new shops!

Once you find a parking spot, Mockingbird Station is a cool spot. A few fun restaurants and bars and then somewhat of a mix of stores. I think Trinity Hall (an Irish pub) and the Angelika (a high end indie movie theater) are both really cool and pretty unique places.
I complain about parking there but really if you go straight to the parking garage and down a level or two there are plenty of spots.

I was always a fan of MS ever since my first visit over a decade ago. The Angelika always played cool films and is a nice getaway from the mega-​AMC theaters with children crying and pooping all over. Ok, a bit exaggerating but you get the point. This was the location of the first Urban Outfitters in Dallas and also one of my favorite bars in Dallas: Trinity Hall. I remember there used to be some clubs/​bars that opened and closed but Trinity Hall was always a constant. Parking here isn’t bad at all if you know your way underground. I’m not sure why MS isn’t as busy as some other shopping centers but I am still, and will always be a fan.

Bad Parking Great Location and a lot of fun!
This is a great plaza with a lot to do… restaurants, bars, shops and a movie theater. All located in one spot. Parking can be tough, but this is a real fun place to hang out. The Angelika theater has great movies, and Urban Taco has fantastic Tacos. Ice cream anyone? Coldstone. OK then shopping, there is a little for everyone, and a Starbucks too… a real fun place to hang out for a few hours.

I love going to Mockingbird Station if I am in the mood to shop, have a few good drinks, and eat. I love the West Elm here. Also Urban Outfitters is one of my favorites to shop at. I do enjoy the variety at Mockingbird Station. The ony thing that bites is the parking.

Mockingbird Station is small shopping area with a few restaurants, a great Art House Movie Theater and at least two bars I don’t mind being inside of a time or two. Mockingbird gets 4 stars because it is so handy and I love the rail centric design of this neo-​urban development. Mockingbird Station is a one stop shop for dining and a movie and maybe a little shopping to. Highlights of the Station are the Angelika first and for most but also cocktail den The People’s Last Stand, Urban Taco and Trinity Hall. For shopping there is a GAP, an urban outfitters and a West Elm for all your modern furniture needs. Just don’t buy a couch and try and bring it back on the DART Train.
I praise Mock Station because it is efficient and compact, it easy to get to without a car from pretty much anywhere the DART line goes (one change over if one the Green Line) and because it includes The Angelika which to me is a 5 Star place without a doubt. I wish there was an indy coffee shop instead of Starbucks and I wish there was at least 1 restaurant that was an absolute jaw dropper but Mock Station is what is supposed to be, efficient and useful with very easy access from anywhere the DART Runs. Getting here is particularly easy for visitors staying Downtown who want to go to the movies or just get out of downtown without having to drive or deal with the bus.
