A great way to experience the lifestyle of living in Mill Creek is by visiting Town Center. Mill Creek Town Center is more than just a collection of retail stores and restaurants. It was designed to have the look, feel, and charm of a small town's main street. You definitely can "feel" the lifestyle of living in Mill Creek simply by walking from shop to shop. Every shop is within easy walking distance, and there is a wide variety of restaurants, services, and boutique shops. But I think one of the most appealing aspects of Mill Creek Town Center is that most of the merchants are much smaller than the mega department stores inside other local shopping malls. They really make you feel appreciated when you visit their store, and it's also nice to have them personally remember you.
We have several favorites, and this is, by no means, all of them. We just want to give you a feel for Mill Creek Town Center and encourage you to come by and experience the lifestyle for yourself!
Central Marketis more than just a local grocery store. It is more like a grocery store on steroids! How many grocery stores do you know of that are actually tourist attractions? My real estate business takes me all over King and Snohomish Counties. When people discover that I am from Mill Creek, they usually mention Central Market! Why? You just have to see it for yourself. By today's standards, they have an enormous produce department - including a huge organic section! The seafood and meat departments are run by people that really enjoy giving you personal attention. Whether you are looking for a rare wine, your favorite ethnic food, or just something quick and easy from the deli or salad bar, stop by and check it out. I know you'll be impressed.
Starbuckshas long been one of our favorite meeting spots in Town Center. In fact, I probably meet more customers here than I do in my real estate office! It's a great place for Bonnie and I to sit down with new customers and discuss their real estate wants and needs.
On Friday nights, Central market has a big outdoor dinner/bar-b-que complete with a live band. So, if you are into people watching, summer evenings on Starbucks' outdoor patio is a very relaxing and entertaining place. Now, if I can just get that ordering lingo down completely!
The Saw Mill Cafeis another one of our favorite places to go for breakfast. They serve lunch and dinner too, but we love their breakfast. The restaurant is extremely convenient and orders are filled pretty quickly. We've always experienced great service and the food is terrific! In fact, it is one of the few restaurants Bonnie and I can get our 13 year old to try something new from the menu almost every time we go there. In my book, that says alot.
If you like Italian food, you simply need to try Capri Ristorante Italiano. They serve fantastic high quality Italian cusine and the service is outstanding. In fact, they should be very proud of their staff. They have some very wonderful signature dishes, but I won't spoil it for you. Capri also has a large selection of wines, so don't be afraid to have them suggest something! The atmosphere is casual & intimate. Bonnie says their desserts are to die for! Hint: during colder weather request to be seated away from the door!
The University Book Storehas a large selection of books, art supplies and merchandise. If you're looking for University of Washington or Washington State University clothing, novelties or gifts, this is the place to go! The store opened in late 2004, and just recently invited Top Pot Doughnuts to occupy a corner of the store.
Well these are just a few of the "Hot Spots" in Mill Creek Town Center. I could go on for days, but I have to go show a home to a new client. I'll highlight more great places in another post.
