Reviews of Peru Mall (Mall)

Kenneth Schuh

Need more stores!

Anastasia Schifler

Look for asbestos in the ceiling. Run in and run out to avoid any lung issues.

Jason Hawley

This place needs a bomb or some life brought back into it. Depressing to walk through there.

Leisa Borem

This used to be a great place. Nothing but a ghost town now. No big stores anymore. Has the only movie theater in LaSalle Peru though.

Carol Anderson

Sad to see what is happening to malls as stores close and leave. What retail was left was minimal but a good clean place to look around and stay cool.

Palmieri Nest

Nothing left in that place!

Adam McMullin

Nice little mall with no crowds or lines to wait in when you pay!

Rachael Spence

Great

Jason Zearfaus

I can't believe how many stores aren't in the mall any more. How is this place even open? No major stores except Marshall's. It's sad really.

Erica W

Soooo sad to see what this mall has become since my younger years.

Rob Powell

Every time I show up I'm so excited that there Are so many good stores all put together in the same place and every time you go into one of them then people treat you solid gold I feel like every time I get my paycheck that's were i wanna go to spend it I love the Peru mall

Jules H.

I came here for Bath & Body Works. Which was great, free smells and friendly staff! However, I was shocked to see that this mall is slowly dying. There are a handful of name brand stores, like Victoria Secret, Spencer's, Payless...the rest of the store fronts are empty.

Dawn Arvik

Hardly any stores left in this mall. Haa a great movie theater not much for kids to do

Omar Gomez

Like the mall to bad a lot of stores have left the area

nacoa ratcliff

Wish had more stores. Been going there my whole life. Am glad still has some great stores though.

James Chambers

It's ok

Rex Hicks

Nice mall. Wish new stores would come in.

Judy Rodeo

Such fair pricing and great staff

Thomas Tucker

its ok but like most malls more empty stores than occupied. just be aware the lot is crumbling and dangerous to drive in.

Marshall D.

Very few select shops inside. Mostly empty throughout the week.

Brian Ewing

Concealed Carry prohibited! It's Christmas Eve and the mall is empty. I don't think it will be here next year. Concealed Carry prohibited so good riddance anyway.

sharon bumgardner

Hate to see the stores all gone thank goodness Marshall is still there.

Luis Galvan

Well lets see- Not really a fair rating on account its pretty closed down aside like a few places, but yeah that's why I rated it that.

Neta Buczkowski

To be fair, I remember the mall being nicer when I was very young. As time went on, more and more stores closed, majors chains are mostly gone and it’s an eye sore. The rent was expensive for those stores anyway. I honestly think they should knock the mall down and put something else. Such a shame. I wish I could have seen it in its glory days.

Michael Rossi

This mall is on life support. I only went in because of the going out of business sales. Only reason to visit is the movie theater.

Naya Nazimek

Not much in store half missing basically a ghost town

mike

I like this mall. been going there since the 70s.but they got to do something soon the place is almost empty.

Dee Mihalcean

There are very few stores still left in this mall. Was not able to find what I needed.

Robin Fennessy

Their parking lot is full of an extreme amount of pot holes. Only a few shops left. They have or already are leaving this mall. The only thing keeping it alive is the movie theater.

Bryan Sieghartner

A lot of the stores are closed. It's well maintained if a little dead. Went on the weekend and there were barely any people there.

Janet Habiger

Very impressed for a small-town found what I needed need to make it a little bit bigger would be great. What helped a lot of businesses out and the town out if they had more shops

Deborah Moore

Sad needs more stores and updated

Marlene McConville

Most of the stores have left the Mall. There is a really nice JoAnn's Fabrics there

John Walsh Jr

Target is good

Thomas Wallace

Ghost town mall rue21 Vs marshals all good

Anthony Sodaro

Where have all the stores gone???

Kalia Jones

Not very many stores not even really worth going to too be honest!

Jennifer Searl

This mall has lost most of its anchor stores. There are still a fair number of smaller shops, including shoe, clothing, and game stores, and a movie theater which has seen better days.

Tina Kulpa

Nothing here anymore sad

technology time

Not many stores left

Dennis Howard

Saddened by the closings of Peru Malls 2 ANCHOR Stores. The changing habits of American consumers has Devastating effects on so many. Once bubbling and energized establishments nearly devastated to ruin. Americas Shopping Center Skyline forever darkened.

This mall has always been my favorite, other then the Water Tower Place in Chicago. After all of the anchor stores closed, the mall really has gone downhill. But, the stores they have there right now aren’t bad. I think Jo-Anns, Marshalls, and the movie theater are the only stores that are keeping this mall open, though. It’s pretty sad to see how busy this mall was 5 years ago vs. now. I hardly see a lot of people in here. Really hope they get more stores in here though, it’s so sad to see Sears, JCPenney, and Bergners all gone.

Comic Lounge

This place is deadsville. Sad might as well just close it down.

Kyle

The building needs some repairs and updating. The mall is lacking stores only a few are left

Tim Messer

Very small mall but a small movie theater is it's saving grace.

Lucy

Sparse, neglected. A few worthwhile stores left: Marshalls, Payless, Joann Fabrics, Bath & Body Works

Juan Pablo Mejia Cuartas

Good prices

Kathryn Profitt

Not worth the trip.

Jake Squareshoes

The stores are closing but at off the wall you can get your favorite band tie and get greeted with help and a smile

Andi Kowalski

The mall is barren.

Cheryl Vazquez

Still a good place to shop, you can find those small interesting gifts.

Corey

Dying off. Two different stores were advertised...and were not there. Meager amount of shops open. It does not have what you "need."

Mat Sexton

So every time I go here, it's kinda sad. There used to be a lot of things here but now its like a ghost town. They have a few clothes shops. The best part of it is Off The Wall, other than that it's too bad they didn't have the business to keep it like it was.

Emily Heath

I wish they had more stores, I remember coming here as a kid and it was FULL of stores and people. I usually just wander and don't buy anything because there are so few stores anymore. I LOVE the didoughs though! I'm so glad there is one kinda close

LoriAnn Jones

Shopping at Marshalls was great. Just wish there were more stores to shop at.

LaTonya Wallace

Everything is pretty much closed down. There are a few decent stores left.

Jon Shipp

Decent Mall good food court

colleen burge

mall needs more stores. how bout reaching out to some retail stores to at least fill some empty stores

Glenn Peck

Last time I was here it was empty hardly any good stores open plenty of vacant storefronts though, I think you'd have more fun going anywhere else

Pamela Langone

Live Marshalls. Wish we had a Homegoods

Penny Best

The music store was perfect. So helpful young man knows his products. Never had to wonder how to find CD I was looking for.

Paula Hancock

Lots of empty stores but the ones that are there are good.

Cupcake Minecraft

Sad to see such an empty mall. I remember this mall in its heyday, so seeing it more than half empty is pretty depressing. There are still some great stores there that I hope move close by if the mall fails.

Candace Chapman

This mall is sad. You can't even call it a mall. Probably less than 20 stores left. Nothing in there that makes me want to shop/visit again.

James Sidell

Unfortunately this mall is a poster child for the fall of the American Mall. Only half of the original stores remain, and many are gone and vacant including some of the anchor tenants. It's sad to see, but I hope that they find a way to encourage more businesses to lease from this mall because it's much nicer, easier, and faster than partroning the nearby strip malls.

Jeremy Smith

AMC is the only thing going for it

Candikisses

I do know that a lot of the stores in the mall have closed. And I have heard from a lot of people that it's becoming like a ghost town in there. Now myself I haven't always enjoyed the mall because it is indoors where you either are able to stay warm or nice and cool as a wonderful movie theater and what stores that are left in there are great. If you want to voice your opinion, I think they should have a suggestion box. They need to find businesses that are geared more towards I don't want to see the younger generation but I do want to say more towards future products because that is what is thriving nowadays. I know this mall can be popular again they just have to look at different generations future products and find the right kind of businesses that are going to stick in there for the long run. But if they don't do it soon it's going to end up just like the South Towne mall that was in Ottawa that now only has late to businesses in it and they're not even stores their actual businesses. Our kids and younger adults need things to do and you as a mall proprietor want their money so give the kids and the younger adults and middle-aged and older adults give them somewhere to spend their money. I would rather drop off my kids at that mall with their friends to walk around the mall and shop because they'll be nice and safe and to be able to shop and get things that they actually want because you know nowadays it's all about oh Mom Dad don't pick out our colors for us just give us some money and we will go buy our own clothes or jewelry or accessories whatnot shoes. Also I didn't agree with furry babies being in there but what I do agree on is pet products or pet clothing because there are people out there that cannot have children or cannot adopt so they choose 2 adopt their own little four-legged child okay and since they can't spoiled a human child they are going to spoil they're little four-legged baby so you need to think clothing accessories whatever else possible, but no live animals. Sorry just some of my suggestions cuz I would love to see that mall saved and not turned into some office space or torn down. If the 1st Street of LaSalle 10 bring up their profits and put new stores in make the buildings look more appealing the products look more appealing than I know the small can be saved.

Carolina Franco

I remember this place to be so fun as a child. Nothing is there anymore

Jodi Westerhold

Sad that there isn't much there anymore...not everyone shops online

Katie Madlock

Omg there is nothing in there

I

Be careful of driving in, you might lose a tire or get swallowed up by the grand canyon of potholes coming in/out from several of their parking lot entrances. Engage your 4x4 and do not speed over 2 mph unless you want your suspension/tires to be replaced years sooner than expected. Thanks for your time.

mona moore

This mall is better than having nothing. It's pretty dead. It needs an anchor store with a following.

John Marshall

I miss FYE Store and the other stores that I remembered when I was a child

Mark Nickel

Place is on its way out, ashame

Andromeda Jones

Good mall, clean and friendly. Quieter, nice for a family day.

Pat Miller

Very very clean. Do go if you can.

Patrick Lewis

It's sad to see the mall going down the way it has. Most of the store fronts are closed for Good. Thay DO have F.Y.i. & off the wall, & the AMC theater... these are all good places to go...& Are probably all that's keeping the mall open.

Brenda Goulet Parrott

It's depressing the number of stores no longer there.

Rhody Janke

The store I went to was fine. Mall overall is getting sad. They'll never be able to replace those "anchor" stores......I feel bad for the merchants who are left.

Darla Kottlowski

Not a lot there... Good nail salon, Justice, Claire's, Bath And Body Works...

Doug Holtz

It's a nice mall, but has numerous empty storefronts, two empty anchors with the third (and last) in the final stages of liquidation. Its days may be numbered.

Angilina

NOTHING here! Nothing at all! It's a ghost town. All the stores are gone. Nothing much here at all. Currently a waste of space. Went here hoping to find a homecoming dress. Left disappointed and bored. Didn't buy a thing

Crash

Oh my, this is becoming the saddest place. There are hardly any businesses left

Chris Hamer

I hope that someone can somehow revive this mall I love this place but a lot of the major retailers have closed shop, which is disconcerting. Oh how I miss the days of Wards, Sam's, Orange Bowl, and Maid Rite.

brian aber

Nothing there anymore!

Andrew VanDorsten

Suxs nothin there.

Hex Kitty

Dying mall. Nothing there that's worth the drive.

Nicole Geary

The mall has been a favorite since I was a teenager and that's quite a few years ago. It's getting pretty empty in your main anchor stores are going out of business but it's still a nice place to go especially if you just want to get a walk in and it's raining outside you can walk inside and feel safe. The store across from Marshalls is a really neat little store. It's small but they have a lot of items packed into it especially for your sports lovers.

Amber Kay

This mall is slowly dying. I recommend the stores that are still here, but most stores are now closed and there’s just not much left except a Kids play area by where JC Penny’s used to be, the Eyebrow Place that does threading (hair removal), an overpriced AMC movie theater, Payless Shoes Store, The Buckle, Claire’s and a few other staples that have not yet sought higher ground.

Jackie Contreras

Fun, nice place

Garret Patti

This mall is a shadow of what it once was. Most of the big name stores have left and it wouldn't be a stretch by any means to say there are more empty store fronts than there are occupied ones. If you want to go to Spencer's or get a pretzel by all means knock yourself out. The theater is okay but I've seen much nicer ones that are not too far away that don't charge more. So all in all don't bother going to this establishment unless a store is having a going away sale.

Derek Carter

Not much left.

Kris T

Hardly any stores

King Creep

Most of the stores are closed down, but the stores that are open have a variety of shopping opportunity

BRUCE KAMER

I drove by it, does that count?

Alen Smith

Nice place to walk around

Miranda Miller

Not too much in the mall. Sad for those that like to go to the shops to shop. Arcade is fun. AMC theater would not give me a refill on my popcorn, even though I had no problem paying for a refill because I was not a member. Made no offer on how to become one either.

Tyler & Naomi Gammie

Not many stores left but it's the closest place.

Tina Tucker

No stores, sad...

Nanette Francis

SADLY SAID; ... There AREN'T Stores remaining worth the `40 minute drive' to shop at Peru Mall. When Bergners & JC Penney closed, it's left most of the county to Shop online or drive 1 1/2 hrs. in `traffic' towards Chicago.

Rose Johnson

It's a mall that has some nice stores you can shop in lots of parking,good bargains it's worth stopping has some places to grab a quick bite to eat benches to sit on throughout the mall in case you need from all the walking check it out you won't be disappointed.

Jennifer Harper

Wont be returning... I have gone here for over 20 years. My last few visits ended the same. Took my daughter to the play area and the same little boy both times was being very mean. Pushing and hitting. I believe he is family to one of the store owners.

Tramsey

This mall is a little small but does have some pretty nice stores. It wasn’t super busy when we went so that was nice as well.

Beth Bernabei

Great mall best stores nice people good layout great theater

Safwan Zulfazli

A nice local mall in a small town.. Interesting types if shops that are available here.. The cinema has great popcorn

Cordell Juhola

The mall has fallen on hard times. The movie theater is the reason to go to the mall.

Gina Ellis

Our mall is a disgrace , all the major department stores have left, there's not to much left

Gwen Gibson

Nice small mall.

Paranormal Cupcake

Good mall but doesnt have many stores anymore.

Mary Trost

There are good stores though there are a lot of abandoned storefronts. Have some food and a movie theater

Yolanda Gutierrez-Harris

Need more choice of stores

Chris Miller

It's not really much of a mall anymore! There are still some great stores, but not too many. I like to go to Marshalls, that's about it.

Marilyn Sproul

I hope they get more business is don't let this place die

april ohst

Wish this mall would get more stores before the mall closes for good

Paige Ireland

I was told by the manager that sitting in the mall in the chairs that have the massager is “Loitering”. I was sitting there for about 2 hours and we were asked to leave; I’ve purchased items in the past, and I was just people watching. Not harming anyone. Crazy how a small mall, can overthink customers are up to no good.

Becky Havens

The parking lot is full of potholes and ruts. It really needs to be redone. Sadly, this mall has suffered as many small malls have, from death by the internet. There are no longer any anchor stores. There is a limited amount of smaller stores.

Willie Signified

Going out of business soon

Lore glamz

Very sad... it looks like a ghost town for sure, I am sad for the locals and it looked so nice.... bring the stores back . Came here while passing by on my hiking trips from Chicago city.

Jennifer Miller

It used to be so much better. It still has some good stores.

Joy Lynn Schwartzkopf

Sad old mall

Pool Soup

I would say they have 30 percent occupied by retail shops and the rest is empty.

Anthony Crane

It was a hallway between sears and jc Penny... Now those stores are gone so it's just a hallway with a Victoria's secret and a bath and body works.

Rob Martin

nothing there anymore to bad

Teresa Higgs

Can't believe the shops that are gone

Ben Wonders

This place literally has nothing to offer.

Matthew Namehere

The mall is dying a slow, painful death & it's sad. There aren't many stores left & what's left feels like it's always changing. Stores are closing all the time. You can at least find good deals at most of the stores but that's about all that I can say that's positive.

Jose Perez

Needs alot of work they should take out the arcade room next to the movie theater and expand the theater over and make it bigger and put the theater ticket booth rite in the middle of the front doors they can move the arcade down to another empty room since they have the space from losing all those stores inside if they keep losing all of their stores then they might as well just turn the whole building into the movie theater and put a huge neon light sign of what movies are playing

Mista Klub

They have lost a lot of shops. I'd be surprised if it stays over more than a few more years. But, what they do still have isnt bad.
