We were planning to go in November for a birthday party. The food was amazing, the beer selection was superb, overall we had nothing but wonderful experiences here. Very sad to see it closed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-65593475393503422362015-07-06T19:28:01.545-04:002015-07-06T19:28:01.545-04:00My family and I personally love the Shoppes at Web...My family and I personally love the Shoppes at Webb Gin. We are regular customers who dine, shop and use services at the center. We love the location as well as the safe and beautiful atmosphere. Though some stores like Georgia Pines have not made it in the Snellville market, other stores at the shopping center are thriving. The addition of Sprouts was a huge bonus for me and many of my friends too.<br /><br />I follow the Shoppes at Webb Gin on Facebook and also joined their free E-club where I get special coupons. I believe that the management of the shopping center really do care and want to know what the local customers would like to see at the center. If you have any suggestions on what stores you want to see there--I suggest you let them know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-64877169099456760722015-07-01T15:39:29.475-04:002015-07-01T15:39:29.475-04:00The Shopping Center has gone down and lost major t...The Shopping Center has gone down and lost major tenants over the years such as Bananana Republic (which sat behind the water fountain), Talbots, Ethan Allen, Pandora, IO Metro, and more. I think some some retailers are too high for the area or either to close to existing malls such as Mall of Ga and Sugar Loaf Mills (formerly Discover). Both malls are in same county and only roughly 20 miles from The Shoppes. Avenue did have sucess when it first opened but it's occupancy rate has never been 100% as there are some spots today that a store have never opened in. The Avenues only pulled Gap, and Justice from nearby shopping centers. Most stores that have closed have locations near Mall of Georgia.

The pricing may have been slightly at the upper edge for the area but not prohibitive. The "managing partners", Ben Baily and Chris Collin, have purchased a building on the square in downtown Lawrenceville just up the street from Local Republicso so look for something new from these two.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-85358653167045919632015-07-01T09:49:39.933-04:002015-07-01T09:49:39.933-04:00Bad move for posting exclusive content on Facebook...Bad move for posting exclusive content on Facebook and Twitter.

The Shoppes is a literally a split shopping experience with the development divided by busy Webb Gin House Road. <br /><br />Parking at The Georgia Pine is horrible with Wind Wing Cafe neighboring and Sprouts Market just across the tiny crowded parking lot. With all the land clearing and shopping center boom along Scenic Highway, management at The Shoppes does need to quickly get their act together. Not saying that is why this restaurant closed however it certainly could be a factor.<br /><br />Sad that we have lost a local based eatery with the influx of (yawn) national chains invading the area.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
