It’s IKEA–of course it’s going to be massive and engaging the whole time. I like that most all of them are generally set up the same way and that they update the showcases according to what’s popular at the time. It helps me keep up with trends when I move for work. I just feel like out of all the IKEAs I’ve been to, this one was kind of boring. Most of the items are the same from one country to another, but they seem to make small adjustments according to their local market. I guess in the US I’ve only been to this one, one outside of Chicago, and DC. It is just surprising to me that the products/displays would vary so much from state-to-state–but again, it’s a reflection of the area. It was super busy when we went. Not surprising for a Saturday afternoon. My only major complaint is that the EV chargers are not easily marked. We only saw one sign. It’s on the lower level of the parking deck by the entrance. The cable on the left does not work. Someone was using the one for our parking spot so we had to charge up at MOA. The hot dogs are still good, and cheap, however 😊
I enjoy bringing my toddler to IKEA for a great affordable lunch/dinner $4.99 for Swedish meatballs, mashed potatoes, green beans & lingonberry sauce. She likes running around the displays & we are always treated kindly and patiently by staff. Then we hop into the stroller as needed!
We stopped in the afternoon to pick up some IKEA bags and a few other things and found it not crowded and well organized. plenty of helpful employees.
Love it! The buy-online, pick up-in store process was about as frictionless and hassle-free as we could have ever expected.
Very interesting if you’ve never been. Really enjoyed the showrooms and their food court items are really cheap!
Really nice store to go look and get ideas, also really great prices on everything. Definitely recommend you stop by to get the furniture that you need.
Such an interesting shopping & dining experience. I liked that they have a cafe with easy to prepare food items as well as the bistro with more elaborate dishes. Ordering process was easy at the cafe and my hot dogs were super tasty (add the fried onions, trust me!). Lots of cool products from small utensils to large furniture pieces. Very fun experience for our whole family, including the kids who enjoyed seeing all of the various themed room displays!
