Crabtree

Crabtree is the largest shopping mall in North Carolina, on Glenwood Avenue in west Raleigh. More than 200 stores sit under its roof, among them Apple, Macy’s, Coach, Brooks Brothers, Banana Republic, H&M, Lego and Tommy Bahama. The mix runs from large department stores down to small specialty shops, so one trip can cover most of a list.

It is a place to eat as much as a place to shop, with Kanki, P.F. Chang’s, The Cheesecake Factory, Seasons 52 and Fleming’s all on site. The mall draws shoppers from across the Research Triangle, well beyond Raleigh itself.
