Capital Mall

I really enjoy coming here just to walk around and browse. It’s clean, laid out nicely, and there’s tons of seating scattered throughout, which makes a big difference when you’re spending a few hours shopping. You can actually sit, relax, and recharge before heading to the next store. The shops are well stocked and organized, and the employees are friendly and helpful without being pushy. It makes the whole experience feel welcoming. The food court has some seriously yummy options too, with a great variety of cuisines, so everyone can find something they’re in the mood for. It’s perfect for a laid-back afternoon—shop a little, eat a little, and just enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely one of my favorite spots to spend a chill day out.

We took our granddaughter to ride one of the motor animals and have lunch. She had a blast, the lady running the stand was very friendly and interactive. I'm not sure the new restaurants name in the food court, but they had decent food. My granddaughter is 6 & said they were a 10. They didn't offer a small size or kids menu; however, they did accommodate us and made a smaller portion for a lesser price just for her.

This was the first time I've been to the mall in a long while. Everything in the mall and in the stores was clean and we felt secure with the security that was around. It had a good mix of stores which is nice getting ideas for Christmas shopping. I did miss seeing subway, but they had some other good options for food. I saw some stores rolling out black Friday deals as well so getting a jump start on shopping. There was also plenty of parking.

Pretty relaxed and inviting for a mall, which is saying something, since those usually leaves me feeling pretty tense, too many people bustling about. This one has plenty of people in it at any given time but a chill atmosphere for the most part. Plenty of great places to shop and the food selection isn't bad either. No weird smells here, just your typical mall scents. All in all, I felt welcome and at ease enough to be willing to possibly do some unnecessary shopping, and maybe even browsing/window shopping which I honestly hate doing. The architecture of the interior was pleasant, and not overbearing, nor really flashy, just right for where it's situated. The best part is that transit is easy to access, prompt and usually on time(weird for public transit services to be honest) and even better, it's free(not really there just isn't a fare requirement but the money comes from somewhere, and that's usually taxes folks, nothing's actually free.) which is awesome for someone coming from Pierce or king counties where fares can be a bit painful for some. Exterior is clean, but not too impressive. Parking lots are as spacious as a parking lot at a mall can be without being a giant desolate sea of concrete and asphalt. All in all a pretty good place to shop, check it out next time your in Olympia or nearby, might be worth it to you, if only for the one visit.

I always come to this mall, even though it’s not the biggest, it’s still a nice mall with lots of good shops and there is always new things being added here! 😎
