I love this shopping center so very much reason being it houses so many wonderful little shops that I frequent. It’s a great place to come for a bite to eat, for grocery shopping, and there is a vast array of clothing boutiques ranging from large corporate mainstream stores to small family owned non-chain stores. I love that Whole Foods is planted smack dab in the middle as I shop here religiously. It’s a great area to spend a couple of hours shopping and dining, even snacking at the ice cream shop. There are so many various stores ranging from an eye doctors offices to a nail shop and even a couple of hair salons, one for adults, and one primarily for kids. This area is definitely super nice and a little less hectic to maneuver through the hustle and bustle as say, Perkins Rowe, while still offering many many stores options. So yea, this entire area encompasse a large area that’s worth driving through and checking the entire scene out. So go ahead and sample some cheese at Whole Foods, go grab some ice cream at Marble Slab Creamery, check out a book at Books-A-Million, and don’t forget the coffee run at Starbucks.

I like this shopping Center. It has tons of parking and they are constantly improving it. The landscaping is kept well and they have on-site security patrols. You can workout, pig out, get your glamour on, shop for any occasion, grab a book, buy some bling, or just sit outside on a patio and enjoy happy hour or a cuppa joe.

I always enjoy shopping here. There’s a good variety of shops and restaurants. It’s central location is easy to access from anywhere in the city. Gap and Whole Foods definetly make the trip worth while. I love the seating areas too. Its the perfect place to shop and hang out, especially when the weather is beautiful.

Sometimes it’s nice to have some hoighty toighty. Yeah, the Towne Center is a bit high class, but in Baton Rouge, that can be a good thing. Without them you wouldn’t have a decent hotel(Residence Inn), Whole Foods(the main reason why I love this shopping center), and other shopping options. I’ve stayed at the Residence Inn here plenty of times, and the Whole Foods is a total savior and rescues me from the world of deep-fried known as Louisiana.

Think of a low scale Perkins Rowe with more of a family feel and that’s what the Town Center at Cedar Lodge is in a nutshell. It’s nothing short of a manufactured village /neighborhood, geared around plenty of shopping. I guarantee if you’re not a woman or a child with no desires other than some milk, you might find the place a tad boring. The folks running the joint love to sell the idea that it’s lifestyle shopping, which thankfully also means there is going to be a variable mix of random stores catered to different interests. The setup is remarkably easy and surprisingly peaceful, and quite clean. With respect to the shopping lineup, it’s completely clear this place is meant more for the ladies than they are for the guys. There are more than twice as many stores geared toward women(Ann Taylor, J. Jill, Eros, Febe, Lane Bryant etc), than there is for men. Aside from American Eagle Outfitters, Gap, and perhaps Al’s Formal Wear, the pickens get pretty slim for my fellow brethren. But fear not, since most guys don’t enjoy aimless shopping(keyword: aimless), there is a decent crop of eateries situated here. Carrabba’s, Bonefish Grill, Zoe’s Kitchen might all passable options, though I encourage most everyone to avoid PF Chang’s and Qdoba like the devil, but it beats having nothing else. If you happen to be among the targeted demographic, go crazy here. If not, there is always the Mall of Louisiana(delinquent central) or Perkins Rowe(semi-delinquent central). Just don’t let that insane Baton Rouge 9% sales tax catch up to you.
