Cedar Hills Crossing

I’ve been coming here since the Beaverton Mall days. It has been nothing if not flexible, I think Binyons is the only shop that has been there the whole time. Now days the inside of the mall holds little interest for me. The exterior shops are where it is at, I find myself here often. By exterior shops I mean ones with their own entrances for the parking lot.
There are places I miss, Rays Watch shop for one. I’m still not sure where I will get a new battery, watch strap etc.
That said there are lots of good places in this spread out location.
Current favorites:
Winco
New Season
Powells
Other places I recommend
Storeables
Best Buy
L & L
Panera
There are also other great places clustered around the mall.

Cedar Hills Crossing is utterly impressive. It is a short walk from light rail. Although the shopping center isn’t too much fuss on it’s own, there is a parallel side with more across the street. Anchors such as Powell’s Books are here, along with a big Century Theaters.
Approximately twice, I have been here. They Oregon feel is vibrant with there being a Pastini, a good local Italian chain restaurant. The sum of the surrounding Beaverton should more than do it.
Cedar Hills Crossing is a wonderful addition to Beaverton.

Has anyone else been to Top Shopping USA? When you walk into this place you will notice that they carry a sparse and random array of clothing, candles, and lotions? even cookware ! It has one clothing rack with a couple of Tommy Hilfiger polos and T-​shirts with owl faces. There is usually only one person behind the register and they when I asked «Where did all this stuff come from?» the woman had no reply. This store feels like walking onto an international clothing website where you’re not really sure whether or not you should give them your credit card information. On the upside I found a cool pair of low-​top Dr Martens for only 40 bucks.

Contrary to some, I tend to kinda like Cedar Hills Crossing.
First of all, my favorite New Seasons in located here. I’m in and out of CH Crossing all the time because of the New Seasons.
Then there’s Powell’s. Perfect for when I need a last minute gift or I’m searching for a specific book. I’ve found some gems in this location, including a amazing (and huge) Thai cookbook.
A new Storables location just went in here, which has proved very convenient thus far, especially when I needed glass bottles for homemade gifts this year. They’re also putting in a Craft Warehouse in March of this year.
I also appreciate the ULTA location here, since I buy products there on a regular basis.
Bank of America, Best Buy, Winco, and Ross are also frequented often enough.
On the down side, this VisionWorks location doesn’t have the best customer service. Same with LA Fitness.
Also, I would probably stay away from BG Pizza (their pizza looked hours old) and head over to the infamous MOD Pizza instead. CH Crossing also boasts a McMenamin’s, Pastini’s, and Thai Noodle Etc. All good food choices.
Overall a great place to complete errands and buy things you need… or just want.

75% off unbelievable deals I’m doing more Christmas shopping at old navy with this deal hey maybe I can find me a sexy little Elfet hey sexy ladyyyyyyy! :-)

I like some of the stores here. Old Navy is a staple for me. I’ve been in the Best Buy a few times. I like Powell’s of course, and the frozen yogurt place… and on the back side, I hear good things about Thai Noodle, Hair M, and the theater.
The inside of this mall though is Depression-​ville. Small stores you’ve never heard of and no one seems to shop at. Food no one eats, if a restaurant in the tiny «food court» can stay open. Ok yes there is Cold Stone Creamery and that is good but the rest, yuck.
But in short, folks — this is a bunch of chain stores in an outdoor mall with a tight parking lot and people driving way too fast through it while they pull their Tahoe out around a blind corner. 3 way stops but the 4^th way can do what they want. What?
As a related note — outdoor malls in western Oregon, especially without sufficient awnings make NO sense whatsoever. Are you new to town, Mr. Mall Designer? Are you drawing out these plans from your office in Orange County? Because it rains 9 – 10 months of the year here, so your lack of planning blows. We don’t carry drippy umbrellas here and no one likes slipping on wet linoleum. Bad move.

This is one of the most spread-​out shopping centers I’ve ever encountered. It’s to me mostly a series of parking lots connected by stores more than a formal shopping center. I am very cautious here when crossing over to the stores to shop; you have to keep a sharp eye out due to the volume of drivers trying to park. The problem here is how close the stores are to the parking. So, I do take one star off for that.
However, Cedar Hills Crossing gets the rest of the four stars because of its proximity to my home and the ability I have to walk or bus there so I rarely have to deal with the parking unless I rent a car or use Zipcar. I like the mix of grocery stores (Winco and New Seasons), restaurants, banks, movie theater, businesses, and shops. In other words, everything I need is there, and sometimes things I don’t need at all (but still fun you know).

This mall will wither without Powell’s by the main building. It is in a such sad state. There is barely anything worth going for here.
Except for Thai Noodle, Hair M, Powell’s, Starbucks, a Fro-​Yo place, Golf Galaxy and the theater at the back.
It is just a Crossing. Walk and cross as fast as you can after reaching those stores.

This place is a borderline ghetto strip mall. If it weren’t for anchor stores like Powell’s, Old Navy, and Best Buy I would not frequent the area.

lt’s your average mall. Reminds me slightly of Mall 205 and Eastport Plaza in the late 80’s-early 90’s that I experienced, mostly because it’s a smaller mall. That’s about the only similar aspect, though. Nothing really jumps out at me here.

The parking is quite difficult to navigate but has a good selection of stores.
But now that I think about it, the parking really makes me want to smack someone.

Small shopping center that underwent a large remodel in 2002 – 2004. nothing special. Limited selection of stores. Parking lot is small. I Prefer the old mall before the remodel.

OK, there is pretty much every chain store in this shopping center and you are likely to find whatever you need, — be it a book, a new TV, a white trashy t-​shirt with something that says,“Mr. officer, I swear to drunk I am not God,” a haircut, an overpriced movie ticket — but the sad part is the inside part of the mall. It is JANKY! It is kinda sad and depressing in there. Just stick to the outside and you will feel happier. This is because there are sad, Little no-​name stores that are random and leave me to ponder how they are able to stay in business. Of course the outside stores have everything you need, cheap-​o crap groceries at WinCo and super expensive ones at New Seasons. Best Buy. Old Navy. Starbucks. Etc. Etc. Etc.
There are a lot of little eateries around this area which would be able to satisfy whatever you have a hankering for more or less, which is a good thing.

This place gets another – Ta/Da.AVERAGE.score from me.
I should love it-​being as for years the Beav. Mall, formerly Bernards Airport/​Beav Mall has been my local shopping center.
Thing is, it just never took off.
A few years ago, the owners put a bunch of superficial money into it and changed the name.
Cedar Hills Crossing.
Hmmmm.
Not that the name change did much for the place.
I only go there for the Mac Store, Powells, Winco and the shoe store.
I miss Emporium terribly as well as GI Joes.
I am continually surprised at the number of cars in the parking lot because the place is always empty-​people must be at the theatre.
If you want to go to a great mall, try the newer Tanasbrook place on Cornell. Beav mall would die for those stores.

Pretty good store selections. Very confusing layout. Parking is kind of difficult. Arg. Frustrating

Crossing. A crossing. I guess I crossed from Cold Stone to Powells. I however did not cross from Binyon’s to Harry Ritchies.
There in an inside/​outside component of the crossing that is not clear. I could cross from Best Buy to Old Navy outside, but find absolutely nothing appealing to cross to on the inside. The crap stores with names I have not heard of, and 2008 calendar kiosks are relegated to the inside.
I did cross from Powells to Century 16 Cedar Hills, a good crossing… the only real crossing I ever want to do here.
