Open in 2005, Southlands is a picturesque outdoor shopping center off South Main Street in Aurora, Colorado. This is a pretty area of commerce in the Denver Metro, with a convenient collection of shops, services, and restaurants spanning a handful of blocks.
We recommend you start your Southlands shopping experience by picking up a Southlands Savings Book at the management office, especially if you’re new to the area. Special offers and more information about stores, eateries, and their locations can be found in this handy guide.
Discounts at select locations are available for teachers and members of the military (bring your current valid ID). Southlands is especially proud of their Military Mondays promotions. Ask at individual stores if they participate or check for info on the Southlands website.
Shopping
Shoppers at Southlands looking for trending fashion can find it at popular chains like H&M, Maurice’s, New York & Company, Tilly, and Torrid. Barnes & Noble, Sephora, and World Market are just a few of the gift and novelty shops Southlands has to offer. Bargain hunters will appreciate the deals at discount stores Ross Dress for Less and Five Below.
Among the familiar chain stores, Southlands is also home to unique boutiques like Buff City Soap (hand-crafted artisan soap, shampoo, moisturizers) and Fuzziwig’s Candy Factory for bulk nostalgia candies, caramel apples, and many other treats.
Dining
Southlands likes to promote their “quick bites” food fare, but lingering over a full meal with friends is also a highlight of this neighborhood shopping center. Wings, burritos, and noodle bowls are just a few of the good eats at various stops, among the busy coffee shops and ice cream joints.
You can grab some gumbo and other seafood favorites at The Lost Cajun restaurant. For those who crave a big steak meal, Ted’s Montana Grill will fit the bill. Monsoon Cuisine of India serves authentic Indian cuisine. Mt. Fuji Sushi & Hibachi provides modern Asian dishes for a sit-down dinner or on the go.
Wine lovers seeking a fine dining experience should check out Wine Experience Cafe.
Entertainment
Activities and entertainment at Southlands include pottery-painting shops, a Pilates studio, and an AMC movie theater. There’s a Cub Club for kids, which lets families know about Southlands kid-friendly programs and events throughout the year. Ask at the management office for more information.
In the winter head over to The Pond Ice Rink, for ice skating from late November to February.
